characterises a suite at Astoria

Boracay; A cosy living room at

Astoria Plaza

Its first hotel, Astoria

Plaza, features contemporary

interiors by Atelier Almario

with the building designed by

renowned architecture firm,

Gensler & Associates. This

modern take on business chic,

located at the heart of Ortigas,

continues to set the standard

for urban living by combining

first-class residential suites

with a deluxe hotel.

Its second city hotel is

located in Makati’s bustling

business district. Astoria Green-

belt sets a comfortable and

whimsical atmosphere. The soft

lighting and embellished shelves

with curated mementos spell a

luxurious touch not to miss.

Resting on famed white

sand beaches, Astoria Boracay

greets guests with welcoming

bright hues in Station 1. Blue

waters and lush greenery mesh

with the resorts’ serene palette.

On the other hand, Astoria

Current in Station 3 tells a story

about colours in its individually

styled rooms. “It’s all about the

pulsating energy of a beach

party,” explain the Almarios.

Nestled in Puerto Princesa

is an eco-friendly resort perfect

for idyllic retreats away from the

city. Astoria Palawan is sur-

rounded by a peaceful enclave

of emerald forests. “The resort’s

DNA is outback chic; it’s all

about rugged ecoadventure. We

introduced the bright colours of

the sea and coral into the room,

using distressed and repurposed

wood for a rustic feel.”

An exclusive hideaway ly-

ing on the shore of Baclayon,

Astoria Bohol tells a story of its

own. Inspired by the rich Spanish-

Filipino heritage of the island, the

ventanilla details and machuca

tiles allow guests to experience a

touch of old world elegance.

By designing properties that

have individual stories to tell,

Atelier Almario and Gallego & As-

sociates have brought the names

under the Astoria brand to life. Q
