After bagging the 18.5-hectare lot owned by Mitsubishi Motors Corp. Philippines through a bidding, we heard that Robinsons Land Corp. has won another contract. This time, Robinsons Land signed a contract with Starwood Group to open a hotel under the Westin brand in its Sonata complex property in Ortigas. The hotel is expected to be operational by 2020.
The Sonata complex, the former site of The Medical City, is a one-hectare property acquired by Robinsons Land in 2007. This will be the second Westin hotel that will be built in the country after Travellers International Hotel Group Inc., the listed gaming and resort developer owned by tycoon Andrew Tan in October, announced that Westin would be one of the international hotels that will open at Bayshore City Resorts World in Paranaque City.
