G M’s MESSAGE

A NEW LEAF A lot is in store for you, our valued guests, as we usher in the new year 2019. Exciting times are on the horizon as Acacia Hotel Manila embarks on new endeavors, turning a new leaf and branching out South of the archipelago.

We shall make our presence known in the heart of the “City of Smiles” that is Bacolod and in the “Region of Royalties” that is Davao.

Filipino cuisine takes center stage at our dining outlets this season. Our culinary team has prepared meaty delights to entice your appetite. Sample our take on crispy-juicy pork belly, indulge in flavorful pork sisig, or savor our fall-off-the-bone grilled ribs. To end this satiating culinary journey, take a chunk out of our signature Sapin-Sapin Cheesecake paired with our featured beverages—the Bananarama and the Acacia Sunset.

Customer service is at the core of our hospitality brand: Simply Heartfelt. Our prime purpose is to impart a kind of belonging that is home; a remarkable experience that is Filipino; and a warm service that is family. We look forward to welcoming all of you to encounter our brand of service across all three properties and join us in our journey as we continue to grow the Acacia Hotels Group.

The New Year leads us to new beginnings and abundant opportunities. The Acacia Hotel brand paves the way for you to seek authentic, life-enriching experiences. As you go on a gastronomic journey with our food and beverage offerings, take a much-deserved rest and respite with our well-appointed guest rooms, or celebrate milestones as we bring Filipino hospitality to greater heights—may your 2019 be a truly multi-sensory experience like no other.
