The
Philippines are the latest addition to our global network of hotels,
so there’s no better time to visit!
Its capital Manila is
a thriving metropolis. Modern and colonial architecture intertwine, and
combined with a vibrant market life and museums, celebrate the country’s
unique culture.
If you’re looking to get away from the hustle and bustle, escape to the
spectacular rice terraces surrounding Banaue. Described as the eighth
wonder of the world, these remarkable terraces were carved into the hillside
over 2000 years ago.
Other destinations worth visiting include Boracay Island for its
famous white beaches, the ‘chocolate hills’ of Bohol in the Visayas and the
volcanic crater Lake Taal - southwest of Manila.
Not surprisingly, with over 7000 islands, the Philippines are perfect for
diving and snorkelling. There are also wonderful hiking and trekking
opportunities in the Quezon Province, or you can explore
Palawan's Underground
River, a long meandering network of caves in Sabang's Puerto Princesa
Subterranean National Park.
