Resorts World Manila: First Deluxe Casino Hotel in the Philippines
I can't believe that despite the global depression, investors are still pushing to finish the Resorts World Manila, the first deluxe Casino Hotel in the Philippines. The developers are planning to make Resorts World a complex with hotel accomodations, a mall, a casino and a transportation hub so you won't have to go elsewhere! I'm really excited to see the launch on August since the people behind this are also behind Genting Singapore, covering the operation of theme parks, gaming facilities, hotels, seaside resorts and entertainment. They are also behind Genting Highlands in Malaysia. Whew!

More after the jump.
What's so exciting about Resorts World Manila? Other than being the first casino hotel cum entertainment hub in the country, it is also offering three types of hotel accomodations.
The Manila Marriott Hotel is the first new 5-star international standard hotel to open within the past five years. The hotel has 342 rooms and 3 dining outlets in the Cru Steakhouse, Velocity Entertainment Bar and the Marriott Cafe, all of which promise to set new benchmarks in Manila. It also has multiple meeting rooms, a superb ballroom, Spa and other 5-star amenities.
Maxims Hotel is the first Deluxe Casino Hotel in the country, another luxury lodging brand of the Genting Group, Maxims has a total of 172 all-suite rooms, each assigned with personal butler services and furnished with state-of-the-art facilities.
We were given a tour around a mock room at the Maxims Hotel and yes, it has hi-tech facilities like a huge television where you can access the internet. You don't have to check in at the front desk like other hotels. You can directly go up to your room and check in there after being dropped off by a limousine. The only thing missing is a marriage proposal from Prince William to know how royalty really feels.

I know they have a budget hotel in the works but I forgot what its called since its not up on their website as of the moment. But, Resorts World has a grand plan of getting people all over the Philippines to have access to the entertainment hub by making transportation in and out of the hotel complex available. The budget hotel is a great place of overnight stays and for people who like to spend their money on entertainment rather than spiffy accomodations.
