Philippines casino operator Bloomberry Resorts Corporation has confirmed it will formally open its second integrated resort, Solaire Resort North, in late May.
The new resort, located in Quezon City, comes at cost of US$1 billion, covering 1.5 hectares and standing 38 floors high. Described by Bloomberry as an “architectural marvel”, Solaire Resort North will offer a panoramic view of its surrounds while delivering a blend of modern sophistication and class, the company said.
“We are excited and proud to share our new property and resort,” said Bloomberry Resorts Chairman and CEO, Enrique K. Razon Jr.
“From a decade ago when we opened Solaire Resort Entertainment City, it has always been our mission to provide a fresh yet indulgent brand of luxury that has not been experienced in the Philippines before.
“With Solaire Resort North, we uphold the same mission in the hope that the property’s presence and operation will support Quezon City’s endeavors to enhance and promote tourism, generate employment for Filipinos, and further attract opportunities for economic and social investments.
“At the same time, we anticipate that our presence in Quezon City will positively impact our growth, widen our market footprint, and reinforce our brand’s strength.”
Bloomberry said Solaire Resort North represents a “strategic expansion” that aims to bring the signature Solaire brand of excellence closer to Metro Manila’s northern residents.
The property will boast 526 guest rooms and suites, plus 2,669 electronic gaming machines and 163 tables across four casino levels.
Food and beverage options will include contemporary Italian at Finestra Italian Steakhouse, Japanese at Yakumi and authentic Chinese at Red Lantern, while casual dining options will feature regional Filipino, Asian and international flavors.
Holistic wellness facilities such as a spa, saunas, plunge pools and state-of-the art gym will be complemented by a curated art program and display comprised of celebrated names in the local and international art scenes.
“Quezon City is a highly urbanized city with a population largely comprised of locals with a wide range of demographic interests,” said President and COO, Thomas Arasi. “We saw an opportunity to provide more exclusive experiences not just to our existing Northern clientele but to a larger untapped market. We want to bring the signature Solaire experience closer to our valued guests and introduce what and who we are as a brand to a larger audience.”
Bloomberry said its new resort has created 4,200 direct employment opportunities for Filipinos.
