The Ascott PH welcomes new Makati property

Published Nov 8, 2021 05:17 pm

For The Ascott Limited Philippines, it has always been about treating residents and the employees as family—and letting them create their own stories during their stay with this global lodging owner-operator group, a member of CapitaLand Investment. The group’s newest jewel, the Somerset Central Salcedo Makati, formally opened its doors at HV dela Costa Street.

Susan Salcedo, general manager of Somerset Central Salcedo and city manager of The Ascott Limited Philippines, was ready to remind us of this very integral value proposition.

“We at The Ascott Limited Philippines treat each other like family, and this special bond translates to how we welcome and serve every guest in all our properties, including here at Somerset Central Salcedo Makati. When we say, ‘you will feel at home’ with us, we truly mean it,” she said.

Its brand of unrivaled hospitality and service of genuine care has made guests loyal and these qualities are embodied by The Ascott Host, a global program of the company designed to deliver personalized service to guests.

Another program that ensures health and safety for the guests and employees is The Ascott Cares, which is developed in partnership with Bureau Veritas, a world leader in testing, inspection, and certification of hygiene and health standards, and a champion of wellness support and sustainability practices.

One feature of The Ascott Cares is its 24/7 on-call wellness and security measures, which offers support that’s just a phone call away.

While the ongoing circumstances mean that the establishment can only welcome quarantine guests for now, leisure guests have something to look forward to when the residence can open up for multi-use. It’s important to note just how well-appointed and luxurious an option Somerset Central Salcedo is for these quarantine guests.

Somerset Central Salcedo is a 32-story building, with a lobby that exudes classic elegance. There are 285 spacious rooms, with five basic apartment types—Studio, Studio Premiere, One-Bedroom, Two-Bedroom, and Three-Bedroom. Rates start at P4,800 per night.

Ensuite bathrooms and wireless internet access are available in all rooms, while the bigger units have fully equipped kitchens and a washer-dryer. There’s a swimming pool, fitness center, a Resident’s Lounge, and a Cubbies Playroom for children. If you need a function room, the Azalea has a seating capacity of 100 people.

Since it is centrally located in Salcedo Village, Makati, a thriving dining scene beckons, and shopping malls, religious services, and various cultural activities are just a short walk (or ride) away.

Let’s all welcome Somerset Central Salcedo as the newest member of The Ascott Limited Philippines "family." To know more about this new property, visit https://www.discoverasr.com/en/Somerset-serviced-residence/Philippines/Somerset-central-salcedo-makati.
