Mandarin Oriental Makati, Manila, is scheduled to open late 2026 above the city’s urban park, Ayala Triangle Gardens. The move marks a return for the luxury brand to the city; it previously had a property there from 1976 to 2014 that served as a business and social hub for Manila.
The hotel’s website shows reservations opening on December 14, 2026.
All told, there will be 275 rooms and suites, a spa and wellness floor, five dining and bar outlets, and a collection of event spaces designed for celebrations, business gatherings and cultural occasions.
Key move for Mandarin Oriental
Laurent Kleitman, group CEO of Mandarin Oriental, said that the brand’s return to Manila marks an exciting new chapter. “Its addition further advances Mandarin Oriental's strategic growth across Southeast Asia, strengthening our presence in the region's key gateway cities and deepening our connection with one of the world's most dynamic travel markets,” said Kleitman.
The hotel, which is being developed in partnership with Ayala Land, one of the Philippines' leading property developers, is located within Makati, Metro Manila's cosmopolitan financial and lifestyle district.
That puts it close to Greenbelt's mixed-use business and entertainment district with multiple luxury retail and dining destinations, restaurants and cocktail bars, galleries, neighborhood cafés and the Salcedo and Legazpi weekend markets.
