BEST Western International is enlarging its presence in Cebu with a second hotel opening, hot on the heels of its debut property.
Located on Mactan off the coast of Cebu, Best Western Cebu Sand Bar Resort is a 58-room midscale hotel with facilities such as a freeform outdoor swimming pool, an entertainment centre and a playground.
The hotel also caters to business travellers and corporate groups with three meeting rooms, a 280m² ballroom and complimentary Internet throughout the premises.
Glenn de Souza, Best Western’s vice president of international operations – Asia & the Middle East, said: “Since we debuted in Cebu late last year with the Best Western Plus Lex Cebu Hotel (TTG Asia e-Daily, March 21, 2013), we have experienced strong demand, both from within the Philippines and elsewhere.”
Best Western Cebu Sand Bar Resort will become the seventh Best Western hotel in the Philippines, joining midscale Best Western hotels in Manila, Angeles City and Boracay, as well as upscale Best Western Plus hotels in Makati City and Cebu.
The chain plans to operate 11 hotels with almost 1,200 rooms in the country by end-2014, adding four more hotels, including two in Cebu.
