Manila Marriott Hotel takes pride in its fast and reliable Internet connection, capable of handling huge bandwidth demands of its checked-in guests and corporate clients. The hotel’s general manager, Bruce Winton, believes that Eastern Communications has been a significant part in their ability to offer guests the luxury of strong connectivity.
Eastern Communications is Marriott Manila’s partner in providing reliable Internet connection and innovative data services. It is one of the country’s top premier telecommunications companies, trailblazing paths for business connectivity in strategic locations in Metro Manila, Metro Cebu, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, and Baguio.
With Marriott as the company’s testament to its edge on providing services in the hospitality industry, Catherine Muynila, Eastern Communications head of Marketing shares the company’s latest products and services for hotels and restaurants.
The telco company offers Internet Direct Service or IDS, a premium and dedicated Internet service with a 1:1 contention ratio which runs through Eastern Communications’ fully redundant fiber optic network.
According to Muynila, it is capable of providing gigabit per second connection between the Philippines and peering partners in the Asia Pacific region, as well as in the US and Europe. IDS has high-speed, high quality, and redundant links that are ideal for companies with round-the-clock, mission critical transactions.
Meanwhile, the ISDN PRI is a voice service that allows customers to utilize multiple voice channels through a single phone line. This service is ideal for companies with high voice traffic, such as contact centers, allowing clients to experience better value for money without sacrificing voice quality.
Eastern Communications has also launched customized packages for different industries as part of its vision of providing customers a unique brand of “high tech and high touch” service. High Tech means delivering products and services that are at par with other telecommunication companies. High Touch, on the other hand, means offering personalized customer service and solutions to their clients—helping them to arrive at solution suited to their company or industry’s needs.
Aside from strong, fast, and reliable Internet connection, Marriott Manila also offers sumptuous treats. Winton introduces Marriot Cafe’s Barrels of the Sea Seafood Buffet, which serves fresh tiger prawns, salmon, live crabs, clams, and more seafood options, every Friday and Saturday from 6:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.
Cru Steakhouse’s Sunday Steak Day is a chance for meat lovers to enjoy unlimited servings of US Certified Angus Roast Beef paired with salad or soup, two side dishes, and a slice of classic apple pie from 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Marriott Manila and Eastern Communications, as partners, look forward to helping guests discover and enjoy everything the digital world has to offer during their stay at the hotel. Mae Gianina C. Pascual
