Redefining Filipino warmth: Ayala Land Hospitality goes beyond stays
The Philippine Star
|March 14, 2025
Ayala Land Hospitality (ALH) is ushering in a bold new era as the Philippines gears up for a tourism renaissance—one that elevates Filipino hospitality through culture-driven experiences, inspired design, and ambitious expansion.

Committed to delivering authentic, world-class stays, ALH is consolidating its portfolio, enhancing existing properties, and developing new destinations to meet the evolving needs of travelers.
With an investment of over $500 million in the next five years, ALH aims to double its room inventory to 7,500 by 2030. This growth aligns with the country's target of welcoming 12 million tourist arrivals by 2028, a goal supported by major government infrastructure projects opening new travel corridors.
More than expanding its footprint, ALH is reimagining how travelers connect with the soul of the Philippines.
A STRATEGIC SURGE IN SCALE AND STORYTELLING
ALH's ambitious growth strategy strengthens its diverse portfolio, breathing new life into homegrown favorites like Seda Hotels and El Nido Resorts while expanding global luxury icons such as Raffles Makati and the upcoming Mandarin Oriental Makati.
These efforts align with critical infrastructure developments, positioning ALH to capture the expected tourism surge.
