Bloomberry Resorts Corp has officially launched its second Manila integrated resort with the grand opening of Solaire Resort North over the weekend.
Located in Quezon City, around an hour by car from Bloomberry’s original Solaire Resort Entertainment City, the new Solaire Resort North covers 1.3 hectares of land and boasts 526 guest rooms and suites, a casino with 2,669 electronic gaming machines and 163 tables, and various non-gaming attractions.
Speaking at a ceremony on Saturday, Bloomberry Chairman and CEO Enrique K Razon Jr said, “We envision Solaire Resort North to be a destination resort of choice with Solaire’s distinct mark of sophistication and uniqueness in its lifestyle offerings.
“We hope to serve the burgeoning tourism demand north of Metro Manila and the nearby provinces that are enjoying rapid commercial and residential development. We hope to bolster economic activity in Quezon City by encouraging visitors – both Filipinos and foreigners – to explore and discover the city.
“We are bringing only the exceptional to Solaire North – from architecture, interiors, accommodation, gaming, cuisine and art to entertainment.”
PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco said the opening of Solaire Resort North marks a “new era not only for the Philippine gaming industry but also for the tourism industry.”
“This will definitely become a leisure and entertainment destination in this part of Metro Manila,” he said.
“This jewel was not created overnight; It took years of meticulous planning, hundreds if not thousands of workers toiling day and night, immense resources poured into it, to bring us this development that is a class of its own.
“For this we owe our gratitude to the vision and unwavering determination of Mr Ricky Razon and his entire team.”
