PHILIPPINES — Savoy Hotel Manila has cemented its place as Asia's Leading Airport Hotel for 2026, earning the prestigious title at the World Travel Awards alongside its sixth consecutive recognition as the Philippines' Leading Airport Hotel. The 684-room property across from NAIA Terminal 3 continues to redefine airport hospitality.
A Gateway Designed for Every Journey
Located in Newport City, Savoy Hotel Manila caters to travelers seeking convenience before an early flight, after a late arrival, during a short layover, or for a quick city stay. The hotel offers dining outlets, an atrium pool, wellness facilities, and meeting spaces. Guests enjoy the flexibility to rest, dine, work, or recharge before continuing their journey.
The property's strategic location makes it an ideal base for business travelers, families beginning holidays, overseas Filipino workers coming home or departing again, and vacationers pausing to recharge. Whatever brings guests through its doors, the hotel ensures they feel welcomed, cared for, and ready for what comes next.
The Sampaguita Brand of Service
Central to the Savoy experience is the Sampaguita Brand of Service, guided by the values of love, honor, dignity, and healing. This distinctly Filipino approach to hospitality is reinforced through training, guest touchpoints, service standards, and daily operations. Each property under Megaworld Global Hotels & Resorts reflects the character of its destination, people, and local culture.
General Manager Den Navarro emphasized that every guest carries a different journey. "Through our Sampaguita Brand of Service, our Associates bring our promise of Filipino service excellence to life every day," she said. This commitment to genuine care distinguishes Savoy Hotel Manila from generic airport accommodations.
A Legacy of Consistent Excellence
Savoy Hotel Manila first won Asia's Leading Airport Hotel in 2021 and has held the Philippines' Leading Airport Hotel title every year since. The 2026 recognition adds another regional milestone to a brand built around operational consistency and the Filipino guest experience. Managing Director Socrates "Sonny" Alvaro of Megaworld Global Hotels & Resorts noted that the award spotlights what is already strong about Filipino hospitality: the destinations, the people, and the genuine care extended to guests.
Established in 1993, the World Travel Awards recognizes achievements across global travel, tourism, and hospitality. Winners are determined through votes from travel professionals and consumers worldwide. This latest honor marks Savoy Hotel Manila's second Asia-level win, following its first regional recognition in 2021.
Mindful and Inclusive Travel
Beyond airport convenience, Savoy Hotel Manila offers inclusive and mindful ways to travel. Through MEGreen, Mindful Travel programs, community initiatives, and responsible hotel practices, the property integrates sustainability and local culture into the stay experience. The hotel also supports Muslim-friendly accommodations and dining options, ensuring guests from all backgrounds feel considered and celebrated.
Whether catching an early flight, arriving late in Manila, traveling for business, or spending time with family, Savoy Hotel Manila offers a practical and welcoming place to stay. The hotel invites travelers to experience the warmth of Filipino hospitality at Asia's Leading Airport Hotel for 2026.
