Mövenpick takes over Hilton Cebu
Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts has expanded its portfolio of Asian properties with the signing of a management deal for the Hilton Cebu Resort and Spa on the island of Mactan, Philippines.
The Swiss hotel group will rebrand and rename the Mediterranean-inspired property Mövenpick Resort & Spa Cebu.
Owned by Oikonomos International Resources Corporation, the hotel has its own private beach on Mactan. The resort's Zen-inspired spa boasts a number of treatment rooms set within a tropical garden.
Whether Mövenpick will alter the spa facilities is yet to be confirmed, but current amenities include indoor and outdoor treatment areas with a menu offering both holistic and beauty treatments.
Other facilities at the resort include five restaurants and bars with open kitchens designed by Dan Kwan.
Jean Gabriel Pérès, president and CEO of Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts, said: "We're very excited about our arrival in the Philippines. It is a significant milestone for us as it marks our 15th signed hotel in Asia."
The deal is part of Mövenpick's strategy to extende its Asian presence beyond Thailand and Vietnam, with recent developments announced in China, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and India. Globally, it has 90 hotels existing or under construction.
