UP TECHNOHUB is a haven for business and leisure. This dynamic PEZA-listed IT and commercial development in Quezon City is home to technology and business incubators, research firms and BPOs, and yet it also has a leisure component to it in the form of restaurants and commercial establishments so that shopping and food-tripping can also be done here.
To complete the area’s business and leisure environment, Microtel by Wyndham, a pioneer in the no-frills, back-to-basics, limited-service concept hotel chain, recently opened its latest hotel property called Microtel by Wyndham UP Technohub. Microtel by Wyndham, which strategically positions itself at the center of any kind of hub, whether it be business or tourism, now gives business and leisure travelers a new reason to stay in this area of Quezon City.
Microtel by Wyndham UP Technohub boasts of 120 clean and secure guest rooms, decently sized at 25 to30 square meters each, which provides guests with enough space to stretch and breathe in quiet luxury. These rooms are overlooking the city or courtyard garden and are equipped with Microtel’s famous chiropractor-approved mattresses to make sure guests enjoy a good night’s sleep when spending the night at the hotel. These rooms are divided into Double Rooms and Suites. Double Rooms have two Queen-sized beds, with a lovely toilet/bath, TV and writing table; while Suites have a separate receiving area, a Queen sized bed in the bedroom, TV, toilet/bath, a small dining area and kitchen with refrigerator and microwave oven.
The six-storey hotel has a charming Swimming Pool at the Roof Deck, Millie’s Restaurant (one of only three in the country) at the ground floor, a function hall above the restaurant that can accommodate 150 people, as well as three meeting rooms that are good for 20 to 30 persons. The overall design of the hotel complements the industrial and environmental elements present around the thriving commercial development area.
Headed by its president, Jose Mari del Rosario, Microtel has established 13 hotel properties all over the Philippines, providing a much-needed jump-off point for both foreign and local tourists to discover the countryside and business professionals to expand their existing networks.
“I’m proud to say that we are the largest international hotel chain in the country. Our 100% Filipino management team has been successful in fusing Pinoy hospitality with Wyndham’s global standards,” says Del Rosario, who was present during the formal opening of Microtel UP Technohub. Guests of honor were House Speaker Feliciano ‘Sonny’ Belmonte Jr., Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista and Vice Mayor Josefina ‘Joy’ Belmonte.
