SEDA CENTRIO
brings a refreshing signature
hotel experience that is sure to transform the
standards of hospitality in Cagayan de Oro.
It’s cozy, elegant and personal — the kind
of accommodation that’s nice to stay in and
come home to. The second in a series of
Seda hotels by AyalaLand Hotels and Resorts
(
AHRC), this branch in Cagayan de Oro City
is a partnership with the Anflo Group of the
Floirendo family. The 150 guest rooms and
amenities are designed with the global traveler
in mind — think modern and sleek, casual
and inviting — by renowned architect Conrad
Onglao, who’s done projects in the US and the
Philippines.
At the heart of a dynamic destination
You don’t have to go far to shop and dine
because Centrio mall by Ayala Malls is just
an elevator ride away. Here you’ll find a good
selection of dining establishments, including
Starbucks and TGI Friday’s, as well as a
variety of foreign and local retail brands. Soon
there will be residential and office spaces too.
Social spaces
We’ve realized that guests today like working
in the lobby or café, and not in their rooms,”
observes Onglao. Seda Centrio understands
this need — which is why they have an open,
spacious layout on the fourth floor that’s
conducive for meeting people, ordering food
and drinks, and using your laptop. You don’t
have to go from one spot to the next, like the
lobby then the café, or settle for working in
your room — the floor already includes the
main lobby, reception and dining outlet. It may
sound crowded, but it’s not. It’s designed in
such a way that each space flows freely from
one to the other.
Always in touch
Seda Centrio promotes easy access to
technology — you’ll get wireless connectivity
anywhere in the hotel. Plus you can check
your files or plug in your favourite music in
your room, which has a media panel with
USB, HDMI, audio-visual connections and
a 40-inch LED TV. Seda Group General
Manager Andrea Mastellone sums it up well:
We want every Seda hotel to offer the right
mix of technology, efficiency and friendly
service to help the traveler catch up with
what he has left behind.” It’s what any global
traveler wants to hear.
Hangouts
Seda Centrio is in the city, but you don’t only
get views of nearby landmarks and buildings.
At the Misto café, you can sit down for a
delectable meal while relaxing and looking
out onto the pool. The café also has an al
fresco area if you want to enjoy some fresh
air and have a drink. Head to the gym —
fully equipped with automated treadmills,
cross-trainers and exercise bikes — for an
energizing break.
Stylish elements
The hotel’s 28 and 35sqm rooms sport a
minimalist look with Filipino design touches.
For instance, you get art by Jaime Zobel, who
contributes his interesting black-and-white
images of traditional music instruments,
stones and fabric. But an important feature is
the very comfortable bed, which is one of the
things guests say they like best.
Delivering what matters most
All these features, which give good value to
the savvy traveler, make Seda Centrio an ideal
choice. With its set of affordable rates, assured
comfort, convenience and relaxation is easily
within reach at Seda Centrio.
Seda Centrio is at C.M. Recto Ave cor Corrales
