Makati City continues to cement its status as the Philippines’ top destination for world-class hospitality. Global hotel giant Hilton has announced that the first Canopy by Hilton in the Philippines will open in Makati City in 2026.
The new hotel will rise above the bustling One Ayala development, a landmark mixed-use hub in the heart of Makati’s central business district. With approximately 400 rooms and suites, Canopy by Hilton Makati will bring the brand’s signature lifestyle hospitality experience to the Philippine market for the first time.
Canopy by Hilton is known for its vibrant, design-forward approach to hospitality, blending local culture with modern comfort. Guests can expect locally inspired interiors, a neighborhood-feel atmosphere, and amenities tailored to both business and leisure travelers. The brand currently operates properties across North America, Europe, and Asia.
The partnership between Hilton and Ayala Land represents a significant investment in the Philippine hospitality sector. One Ayala itself is a major development that integrates retail, office, and transportation facilities, making it an ideal location for an international hotel brand.
This announcement comes as Makati City sees a wave of new hotel openings, including the return of Mandarin Oriental, further solidifying the city’s reputation as the premier business and tourism hub in the Philippines.
