Condo Rental Manila. Hotel Room Rentals. Lancaster Hotels Launch Philippine Condotel Operations

PRLog (Press Release) – Jun 06, 2008 – Manila Condo convenience and Hotel living in one

Reports from the Philippine Department of Tourism for 2007 showed the average hotel occupancy in Manila stood at 77.03%, a 4.25% increase from the previous year. Although a small year on year up rise, it is still a positive indication on the state of the hospitality business, and tourism in general.

Beth Collingz, PLC International Marketing Networks’ director for sales of the Lancaster Brand of Condotels in the Philippines said “There are some 80 accredited hotels accredited with the Department of Tourism in Metro Manila ranging from deluxe to economy classifications. However there is now an increase of new condominium hotels in the Capital, an indicator that there are more travelers that require staying in Manila for more than just a few days”.

Many people ask me “what’s the difference between a hotel and a condominium hotel? Well, the latter is intended for the frequent traveler who checks in for an extended period of time. Focused on the specific requirements of business travelers who need to feel at home away from home, a condominium hotel or ‘Condotel’ as they are now known, provide the luxury of a hotel and the convenience of one's own condominium. The units in a condominium hotel can be purchased and buyers can live there full or part time or as investment property and rent those out through the Condotel management when they are not using their suites said Collingz.

Condo hotels or Condotels are perfect for those who frequent a given place other than their own dwelling and can't be bothered with booking a hotel and packing a luggage each time they visit.

Standing at 42 floors high, overlooking Wack Wack Golf & Country Club and the skylines of Makati and Ortigas, a new condo hotel along Shaw Boulevard opened its doors last December 27, 2007 to hotel guests, addressing the increasing demand of travelers in Metro Manila.

Lancaster Suites Manila is the epitome of luxury and convenience. Each suite is lavishly and beautifully appointed, designed with plush interiors constructed to highest industry standards. Guest room amenities include a welcome drink and fruit platter, complimentary breakfast and daily newspaper, satellite and cable television, broadband internet connection, in-room safety deposit box and electronic door lock system. Bathtubs are standard in all Condotel suites as are kitchen and dining facilities.

In terms of service, “the Lancaster Suites Manila provides guests a new experience: butler and laundry services, babysitting, concierge and airport transfer are all available as are foreign currency exchange, 24-hour room service and security and scheduled shuttle services to the Ortigas and Makati Central Business Districts” said Collingz.

Lancaster Suites offers residents or guests alike a fitness center and spa, swimming and whirl pools, a dining hall and music lounge, function and board rooms and a cigar and wine bar, there's also a salon, a commercial arcade and a lobby café. The 24-hour business center with complete office facilities (computers, laser printers, photocopiers and fax machines) ensures that needs of guests on business are met.

With four room types and published hotel rates as low as Pesos: 2,670.00 a night, the suites are tailor-made for guests whom may prefer the functionality of the executive studio or the exclusivity of the three-bedroom bi-level suite.
