RED PLANET’S NEWEST HOTEL IN MANILA BEGINS ACCEPTING BOOKINGS

MANILA – Red Planet Hotels announced that Red Planet Manila Bay began accepting reservations on 15 November 2017 for stays from 15 December 2017 onwards.

Red Planet Manila Bay is a 150-room property conveniently located across the U.S Embassy in Ermita, a short distance from Ninoy Aquino International Airport. The hotel is well situated for Manila’s burgeoning inbound tourist arrivals seeking to take in the sights of Old Manila and Intramuros, as well as Manila Bay’s famous sunset. Additionally, the hotel is proximate to several government agencies and corporate offices.

The hotel features the latest Red Planet Hotels standards – bright, modern, and innovative lobbies, with a bank of Apple computers for free guest-use, the so-called “Info Wall” containing everything guests need to know about what is happening around the hotels, and the “Photo-me” screen, which enables guests to take selfies to be instantly shared on Social Media platforms.

With the opening of Red Planet Manila Bay in mid-December, the group will operate a total of 11 hotels in the Philippines. The brand’s ongoing expansion solidifies its position as the largest and fastest-growing value hotel chain in the country. Red Planet will further increase in number with 2 additional hotels opening in Manila by February.

“Travel and tourism to and within the Philippines are showing phenomenal growth. The opening of our 11th hotel further consolidates Red Planet’s position as the value hotel leader in the country” remarked Tim Hansing, Red Planet Chief Executive Officer.

Red Planet currently owns and operates 26 hotels in 4 countries, with a focus on comfort, convenience, and style - all with an affordable price tag. The tech-savvy value hotel chain continues to pioneer with its best-in-class app. The heavily used app has transformed hotel guests’ experience with its unique “In-Stay Mode”. This enables guests to directly chat with the hotel’s front desk, search for local attractions, and order Uber or Grab services. Further, guests using the mobile app enjoy discounts at more than 200 restaurants located near Red Planet Hotels.
