HOTEL NEWS
InterContinental Manila, the longest operating international chain hotel in the Philippines,
is celebrating its 45th anniversary this year having officially opened its doors to the global
community on April 11, 1969. To commemorate the event, the hotel held several activities
aimed to reward guests and members of the InterContinental community.
The 45th-year anniversary celebration of InterContinental Manila commenced with an
exhibition showcasing entries taken by select participants of the 45th Anniversary Photo
Contest where they were allowed to take photos of hotel rooms, restaurants, and other
hotel facilities. The exhibit also featured archived photographs showing the hotel’s construc-
tion phase in 1968, hotel inauguration, the opening team of the hotel and rare photographs
of the original design of guestrooms and outlets.
INTERCONTINENTAL MANILA CELEBRATES ITS 45TH ANNIVERSARY.
As part of its anniversary campaign, InterContinental Manila hosted a series of activi-
ties with the theme “45 years, 45 blessings”. The roster of activities included random
acts of kindness such as Free Ice Cream treats for hotel guests and passers-by, FREE
Stored Value MRT cards at the Ayala Station, free parking tickets at Glorietta Parking, free
snacks to taxi drivers, and free fresh bananas and water to runners at Ayala Triangle
Gardens.
Since its opening, InterContinental Manila has been known for its legacy of unparalleled
service, a landmark hotel that mirrors Filipino hospitality, history, and world class service.
Aptly called the “Grand Dame of Makati”, the hotel has been a frontrunner of
numerous accolades and awards from the past to present, including TTG Travel Awards

for 2013, and as honorary awardee during the 2013 Mabuhay Awards for being the sole

InterContinental Manila continues to celebrate it solid reputation for fine service and
memorable InterContinental experience, 45 years and beyond.

INSIDER GUIDE
PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCE DAYJUNE 12
One of the most significant achievements in the Philippine’s history is Independence
Day on June 12, 1898 as it marks the end of the Spanish rule which lasted for more
than 300 years. The proclamation was held at the balcony of General Emilio Aguinaldo’s
residence in Kawit, Cavite where thousands of people are in attendance to witness
the formal unfurling of the Philippine flag and the first public orchestration of the
national anthem.
June 12 was a declared national holiday in the Philippines.
Pintados-Kasadyaan Festival is celebrated in commemoration of the feast day of Sto.
Nino, the infant image of Christ.
Street pageantry and native folk dances of locals from Leyte and Samar sporting
artistic costumes or unique body tattoos are the main attraction for tourists flocking
Tacloban at this time of the year.
