Solaire Resort Entertainment City and Solaire Resort North strengthened their standing in the luxury hospitality sector after earning major recognitions in the 2026 Forbes Travel Guide Star Awards.

Solaire Resort Entertainment City’s Sky Tower secured its 10th consecutive Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rating, while Solaire Resort North received a Four-Star rating in its first year of operations — marking a strong debut for the newly opened property.

The recognitions highlight both resorts’ commitment to service excellence, world-class facilities, and Filipino hospitality, reinforcing their role as leading luxury integrated resorts in the country.

Collective passion, dedication and hard work

“We are grateful to receive this Five-Star Excellence Award for Solaire Resort Entertainment City, which reflects the collective passion, dedication, and hard work of our team members in delivering the highest standards of hospitality,” said Gregory Hawkins, president and chief operating officer of Bloomberry Resorts Corporation.

“At the same time, we are proud that Solaire Resort North has been recognized with a Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star rating. These accolades inspire us to continue raising the bar, ensuring that every experience at both Solaire properties delivers exceptional service.”

Solaire Resort Entertainment City, the country’s first Filipino luxury integrated resort, continues to position itself as a premier leisure and entertainment destination. Located on an 8.3-hectare property overlooking Manila Bay, the resort features luxury accommodations, wellness and recreation facilities, premium dining options, and large-scale event venues.

Continued Five-Star recognition

“Our continued Five-Star recognition reaffirms our unwavering focus on service excellence and attention to detail throughout the resort,” said David Batchelor, senior vice president for Resort Operations. “It is the commitment, professionalism, and Filipino warmth of our team members that allow us to deliver experiences that consistently surpass expectations.”

The property houses 312 rooms and suites, major event spaces including a 1,000-seat pillarless grand ballroom, and entertainment venues such as The Theatre at Solaire, which has hosted international productions including Les Misérables, Miss Saigon, and Hamilton. The resort also features high-end recreational amenities, wellness facilities, and a diverse culinary portfolio led by signature restaurants Finestra, Red Lantern, and Yakumi.

Meanwhile, Solaire Resort North, Bloomberry’s second Solaire-branded development, is located in Quezon City and spans a 38-storey complex with 526 rooms and suites, multi-level gaming facilities, and expanded MICE infrastructure capable of hosting more than 1,300 guests.

A defining moment

“Receiving the Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star rating in our first year of operations is a defining moment for Solaire Resort North,” said Damian Quayle, chief operating officer of Solaire Resort North. “It reflects the strength of our team members, the trust of our guests, and our commitment to excellence from the outset.”

The property features 14 restaurants and bars, wellness facilities, family-oriented amenities, and the Mangrove — a Guinness World Records-certified installation recognized as the largest glass tube installation in the world.

Both properties operate under Bloomberry Resorts Corporation’s sustainability framework, which integrates environmental responsibility, employee welfare, guest safety, and community engagement into resort operations.

Solaire Resort Entertainment City’s decade-long Five-Star streak, combined with Solaire Resort North’s early international recognition, further positions the brand as a key player in elevating the Philippines’ global reputation in luxury tourism and hospitality.
