Hilton Worldwide, in partnership with Ayala Land Hospitality (ALH), is set to launch Canopy by Hilton Makati, the first of its brand in the Philippines, marking a milestone in urban hospitality. Nestled atop the One Ayala development in Makati, this 24‑storey, 400-room hotel is slated to open in 2026, introducing a fresh lifestyle offering that mirrors Metro Manila’s creative and cultural pulse.

A Strategic Setting: One Ayala’s Urban Fusion

One Ayala, a mixed-use transit-oriented complex developed by Ayala Land, spans 2.8 hectares and seamlessly blends retail, office, and transit hubs. Since its partial opening in 2022, the project has become a focal point for modern urban life in Makati. The arrival of Canopy by Hilton Makati further solidifies the development’s role as a cultural and commercial nexus.

Design & Atmosphere: Locally-Inspired, Bold, Contemporary

True to Canopy’s brand ethos, the Makati property will reflect its locale through bold architecture, curated interiors, and vibrant social venues. Guests will enjoy a destination restaurant, rooftop bar with sweeping skyline views, and a hidden speakeasy, creating immersive social experiences that celebrate Manila’s eclectic spirit.

Guest-Centered Amenities & Wellness

The hotel’s offerings extend well beyond design. Patrons will have access to a pool deck, a high-performance fitness center complete with group classes, and reimagined meeting and event spaces tailored for corporate functions, intimate celebrations, and creative activations.

Catalyst for Hospitality in Southeast Asia

Hilton’s Maria Ariizumi, Vice President for Development, Southeast Asia, emphasized the importance of launching Canopy in such a dynamic urban hub, aiming to deliver hospitality that resonates with both local and global travelers. Meanwhile, Ayala Land Hospitality CEO George Aquino highlights how this partnership elevates Filipino creativity through exceptional stays.

Why Canopy by Hilton Makati Matters for the Travel Industry

  • Lifestyle Evolution: This debut reflects the growing trend in Southeast Asia toward lifestyle hotels that prioritize local identity and experiential design.
  • Market Differentiation: It positions Makati—and by extension the Philippines—as a compelling destination offering culturally infused hospitality.
  • Synergies with Mixed-Use Developments: Embedding a hotel within a transit‑oriented hub underlines a global move toward integrated travel and local convenience.

Final Thought

The launch of Canopy by Hilton Makati signals a turning point in the Philippines’ hospitality landscape. Combining urban sophistication, cultural engagement, and design-forward amenities, this hotel is poised to elevate Makati’s appeal to business and leisure travelers alike—and stands as a testament to Hilton and Ayala Land Hospitality’s shared vision for forward-looking, experience-rich hospitality in Southeast Asia.
