SOLAIRE RESORT NORTH MARKS NEW ERA IN GAMING, TOURISM
Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco on Saturday hailed Bloomberry Resorts Corporation for its latest luxury development, the Solaire Resort North, which he said is an instant landmark destination in Quezon City.
During the formal opening of the second Solaire-branded leisure and entertainment property in Metro Manila, Mr. Tengco said Solaire Resort North âmarks a new era not only for the Philippine gaming industry but also for the tourism industry.â
âThis will definitely become a leisure and entertainment destination in this part of Metro Manila,â he said.
Situated on a 1.5-hectare site in Quezon City, Solaire Resort North is the first and only five-star integrated resort and casino to serve northern Metro Manila and adjacent provinces.
Mr. Tengco also noted the huge efforts made by Bloomberry to bring the project to life.
âThis 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,â the PAGCOR chief said.
According to Mr. Tengco, by raising the bar incredibly high, Solaire Resort North instantly becomes the benchmark upon which future integrated resorts will be measured against.
âFor this we owe our gratitude to the vision and unwavering determination of Mr. Ricky Razon and his entire team,â he said.
âWe at PAGCOR, just like Bloomberry Resorts Corporation, are continuously inspired by the hard work and commitment of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., to pursue projects like Solaire Resort North so that we can provide more jobs and better opportunities for our people, especially those in the tourism and leisure industries,â the PAGCOR chief added.
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos led the Solaire Resort Northâs inauguration. Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte also graced the event.
For his part, Bloomberry Resorts Corporation Chairman and CEO Enrique Razon Jr. said Solaire Resort North aims to elevate the entertainment experience in Quezon City.
âWe 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 â both Filipinos and foreigners — to explore and discover the city,â he said.
âWe are bringing only the exceptional to Solaire North â from architecture, interiors, accommodation, gaming, cuisine, art, to entertainment,â Mr. Razon added.
