Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group has announced that its existing hotel in Manila will be dropped from its portfolio later this year, and will be replaced by a brand new property in 2020.
The luxury hotel company said the Mandarin Oriental Manila on Makati Avenue, which opened in 1976, will cease operating because “the property’s infrastructure and existing facilities are no longer in keeping with the group’s… luxury hospitality offering”.
“Mandarin Oriental Manila has been recognised as one of the city’s most iconic hotels since its opening in 1976, and the group wishes to express its sincere appreciation to all colleagues for their legendary service and support over the years,” said Torsten van Dullemen, GM of the hotel.
“All hotel colleagues have been informed of the forthcoming closure and will receive full and fair severance payment and appropriate professional guidance.”
To fill the gap left by this hotel, Mandarin Oriental has now signed a management contract for a brand new 275-room hotel in the centre of the city. Scheduled to open in 2020, the new Mandarin Oriental Manila will form part of a mixed-use development located within Makati City. Facilities at the new hotel will include a series of restaurants and a spa.
The closure of the Mandarin Oriental Manila will temporarily reduce the group’s Asian portfolio to 13 hotels in seven countries.
