In a strategic move that strengthens its footprint in the country’s leading business hub, Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) has acquired the New World Hotel Makati, a landmark property in the country’s leading financial and commercial hub.

The acquisition forms part of Ayala Land Hospitality’s portfolio. This is part of a larger thrust to sharpen its portfolio of properties in high-growth urban centers, particularly in Makati, where it already operates a number of business and lifestyle hotels. 

“This move reflects our continued focus on offering a cohesive and high-quality guest experience across key locations,” said George Aquino, CEO and President, Ayala Land Hospitality. “The addition of New World Hotel Makati complements our existing portfolio and reinforces our commitment to serving evolving customer needs in one of the country’s most dynamic cities.” 

New World Hotel Makati is strategically located across Greenbelt and within walking distance of major commercial offices and luxury retail destinations—making it a prime asset in ALH’s expanding hospitality lineup. 

Operations at the hotel will continue uninterrupted, with the existing team retained and all current bookings honored. ALH assures guests and partners a smooth transition, maintaining the high standards of service the brand is known for. Business continuity will be maintained across all touchpoints. 

Ayala Land Hospitality is the hotel and resort development arm of Ayala Land, one of the country’s largest property developers, with a diversified portfolio that spans residential, commercial, retail, and tourism estates.
