HOPING FOR THE BEST. John Rice continues the roll of thanks, as well as teasing the media with plans for the hotel\u2019s grand opening later this year.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Communications Executive for Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts Benjamin Arnold, they plan to have their grand opening sometime between April and June this year, but guests can stay in the hotel as early as 3 p.m. today.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have at least 100 rooms ready for occupancy as of right now, and we are aiming at having all 576 rooms ready by April,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Guests at the Shangri-La at the Fort, Manila also have the option of staying at Shangri-La Residences, the property\u2019s answer to those who have\/want to stay for longer periods. \u201cThe Residences is similar to a condominium, with units being rented out by Shangri-La to guests who want to stay for at least 2 weeks,\u201d Arnold said. He added that those staying at The Residences can still avail of all the amenities enjoyed by guests at the Shangri-La Hotel at the Fort, Manila.<\/span><\/p>\n

Horizon Homes, on the other hand, is the hotel\u2019s answer to those who want to have their own space at Shangri-la at the Fort. Arnold had this to say about Horizon Homes: \u201cThese units, located at the top floors of the property, can be owned by anyone. They are blank slates where the unit owners can do whatever they wish.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Apart from living spaces, the hotel also has a total of 15 restaurants, seven of which are managed by Shangri-La directly. They also have the Podium Arcade, which will house the rest of the dining options, along with shopping outlets.<\/span><\/p>\n

Room rates at the Shangri-La at the Fort, Manila go for an average of P12,000 per night; a steal when you consider the kind of luxury you\u2019ll experience at Shangri-La.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shangri-La at the Fort, Manila is located at 30th<\/sup> St. cor. 5th<\/sup> Ave., Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. For reservations, you can visit their website<\/a> or call 02-841-9686.<\/span><\/p>\n
