Elevating guest experience and cultural symbolism
Recently, the MHR introduced a signature service brand that evolved into a movement to support the fading sampaguita industry, the national flower.
The leading hotel chain in the country led the planting of sampaguita seeds in four of Megaworld’s townships and estates, such as Boracay Newcoast, The Mactan Newtown in Cebu, Iloilo Business Park, and their own large botanical Central Nursery in Tanza, Cavite.
When guests travel and stay at a hotel, they often feel deeply connected with their surroundings. MHR wants to enhance this bond by incorporating the essence of Sampaguita into every aspect of the guest experience.
This beloved flower symbolizes the brand’s commitment to offering memorable stays, leaving a lasting impact on guests, and nurturing strong customer loyalty and cultural significance.
After all, you deserve nothing but the best when it comes to relaxation and rejuvenation.
