MANILA – A groundbreaking ceremony was recently held in Quezon City for the country’s first Wyndham Garden hotel.

Located opposite the ABS-CBN broadcasting center, the 25-storey Wyndham Garden Quezon City is expected to open in 2021.

It will feature 235 rooms and suites, a spa, a fitness center, an elevated outdoor infinity pool with a whirlpool tub and pool bar, and an all-day dining restaurant.

“Wyndham Garden is the perfect fit for the Philippines, where tourism is thriving,” Joon Aun Ooi, Wyndham Hotels and Resorts’ president and managing director for Southeast Asia and Pacific Rim, said in a statement released Monday.

“We are delighted to be working with Wellworth Properties on this exceptional new project and we look forward to offering smart, stress-free stays to guests in Quezon City,” he added.

Harly Geraldine Pow, business development and marketing manager for Wellworth Properties, said the design of the country’s first Wyndham Garden keeps both business and leisure travelers in mind.

“We incorporated contemporary, purposeful, and functional design to make the traveler’s stay relaxing, convenient, and comfortable. We also plan to include natural materials, pops of green, and abundant natural light in the development, as well as introduce technologies and systems to reduce waste and energy consumption,” Pow said.

Wyndham Garden is the sixth brand of Wyndham Hotels and Resorts in the Philippines. The others include Ramada by Wyndham, Ramada Encore by Wyndham, Days by Wyndham, TRYP by Wyndham, and Microtel Inn and Suites by Wyndham.

A total of 21 properties are currently operating in the country.
