Be among the first to experience the Summit Hotel Tacloban brand of service and amenities at a special advance purchase rate of P3,777 net for Super Rooms!
As an initial treat to locals and foreign visitors, Summit Hotel Tacloban, the fifth property under the Summit Hotels and Resorts brand, is offering the special room rate, which includes a sumptuous breakfast by Patron Casual Dining restaurant.
The Summit Hotel Tacloban, strategically located just right next to the Robinsons Place Tacloban, serves as a portal to the rest of the Eastern Visayas. The Summit Hotels and Resorts, which had its soft opening last April 25, is a tribute to the resiliency, strength and beauty of the place and its people.
“We are proud to open our doors and set a new milestone for Tacloban as a leisure and corporate meeting destination,” says Robinsons Hotels and Resorts Business Unit General Manager Elizabeth D. Gregorio. “The sun is continuously shining bright in the city of Tacloban and it’s our pleasure to take part in letting the world know the beauty that awaits them here,” she adds.
The 138-room Summit Hotel Tacloban is the Summit Hotels and Resorts contribution to Tacloban’s thrust of “building back better” as it features design concepts and finishes that are unique to the region to achieve a tropical Filipino look with a luxurious and contemporary yet warm and welcoming vibe.
“The design takes inspiratiom from Region Eight’s colorful history [and is] a commemoration of the promising future brought about by the abundance of its natural resources and the warmth of its people despite past trials,” says the property’s architect, Albert Yu.
Yu adds that natural wood and neutral hues will be the main motif of the property, with interesting details from native stone surfaces, pretty latticework and elegant light fixtures.
Wooden arches, symbolic of Tacloban being a gateway to the region, will greet guests at the reception area. Basket-weave, coconut-leaf patterns and patterned glass will give depth and texture to various areas of the hotel, while pops of color will add a hint of fun and playfulness to the design.
The Summit Hotel Tacloban will feature six guest suites in three different designs that echo a celebration held in the region — the Sangyaw Suite, with its bold floral patterns and metallic accents, is named after the Sangyaw Festival, a local religious and socio-cultural event revived by the city government in 2008; the Lubi-Lubi Suite, with its bold leaf patterns and a variety of textures and colors, is named after the sayawlubi-lubi (coconut dance), an indigenous street parade that celebrates peace, love and unity among the city’s barangays using coco plants and materials for their costumes and props; the Pintados Suite, which will be marked by modernized symbolic tattoo patterns, is named after the Pintados Festival, a commemoration of the first inhabitants of the Visayas whose bodies were covered with tattoos.
King and Twin Super rooms, meanwhile, will feature native woodwork patterns that are reminiscent of indigenous bamboo floors of the traditional bahaykubo. All rooms, as well as communal spaces, will be furnished with mid-century modern pieces to balance the more traditional design elements.
