Property developer Robinsons Land Corp. is set to open its 10th Go Hotel in Davao City, the biggest provincial branch of the Go Hotels chain.
The 183-room hotel within the Phoenix Complex along J.P. Laurel Ave., Go Hotel Lanang-Davao is the first project of the joint venture between Robinsons Land and Udenna Development Corp., a unit of Phoenix Petroleum Philippines Inc.
The Davao City hotel is the second Go Hotel branch in Mindanao, after the one in Butuan City, which opened in 2015.
The opening of Go Hotels Lanang-Davao brings the total room inventory of the Go Hotels chain to over 1,400.
Robinsons Land said online booking offered introductory rates at P388 plus value added tax, for stay dates starting October 1, 2016.
Robinsons Land said hotel guests could look forward to a comfortable stay in plush Windsor beds, fully air-conditioned rooms equipped with cable TV, safety deposit boxes, private bathrooms with hot and cold shower options and complimentary Wi-Fi connection.
Hotel rooms in Go Hotel Lanang-Davao, similar to other branches in the country, are standard in size, averaging 18 square meters, an ample size when compared to same-category hotels with much smaller room spaces.
The second level of the hotel is dedicated as a function facility that can accommodate a maximum of 200 persons, making it a venue for business events and social occasions.
Davao City is known for its tourist destinations but and a thriving commercial center. There are 242 weekly domestic and international one way flights going to Davao.
Tourist arrivals in Davao rose 4.1 percent in the first nine months of 2015 to 1,874,587 from a year ago level. Over 90 percent of the arrivals are domestic tourists. The number of foreignvisitors also rose 2 percent from a year ago.
