Choose your ‘home’
Although they vary in sizes, the Studio, Studio Premier, 1 to 2 Bedroom Deluxe and 1 to 2 Bedroom Premier units also include a home entertainment system and daily housekeeping services to keep them clean and fresh.
The fully-equipped kitchen with stove and microwave oven is particularly ideal for guests who like to prepare their own food. Even though there are plenty of restaurants in the area not to mention Citadines Salcedo Makati’s own in-house café that offers tasty meals, there are guests who may still prefer their own home-cooked specialties.
Unparalleled extravagance is what makes the Studio Premier and 2-Bedroom Premier units stand out from the rest. The Studio Premier offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city skyline while the 2-Bedroom Premier is a luxurious apartment that offers privacy and comfort with spacious living, dining and kitchen areas spread across two floors.
The chic interiors and modern Filipino artwork that enhance every unit are also nice touches that provide an added feeling of being very much at home at Citadines Salcedo Makati.
