Shangri-La Asia Limited, Asia Pacific's leading luxury hotel company, will open Shangri-La at The Fort, Manila in 2012, located within the Fort Bonifacio former military base and city centre. At over 60 storeys, comprising 500 guestrooms and 234 luxury apartments, the building is destined to become a Manila landmark. The new hotel will complement the company's five existing hotel properties in the Philippines and the Shangri-La's Boracay Resort & Spa, scheduled to open at the end of 2008.
The mixed-use business, luxury residences and retail tower will be located along the 5th Avenue and 30th Street, within the new, fast-developing Taguig business district. A 30-minute drive from the international airport, the hotel will also be close to the Manila Golf and Polo Club, and 10 minutes from Makati district, the capital's financial, cultural and entertainment hub with first-class shopping malls.
Shangri-La has named US-based Skidmore, Owings and Merrill LLP as architect and Hirsch Bedner Associates will undertake the interior design for guestrooms and main lobby. The tower will present a contemporary yet timeless design with the facade of the building tapering skyward, maximizing the ocean view.
