    Robinsons Hotels Go, Go, Go! It's an era of revenge - in a good way! Have you heard of Revenge Travel? This year it is! The year when we said to ourselves, "We dasurv this!" It maybe a solo trip or travel with barkada and friends, we truly deserve this! That's why Robinsons Hotels and Resorts coined a number of promos for us to choose from depending on our "Revenge Travel" needs! Simply choose - GO 24/7, GO 365, GO BUY ONLINE? It's time for us to travel and scream, GO, GO, GO!!!




    Supporting the uptrend of domestic and international travel, Robinsons Hotels and Resorts announces flexible, advance and revolutionary booking and stay experience for its valued guests with their new signature offers aptly coined GO,GO,GO – GO 24/7, GO 365, and GO buy online – each uniquely designed to provide guests with greater convenience and a personalized experience.

    “Our homegrown brands Go and Summit hotels, even during the pandemic has been providing the genuine brand of Filipino hospitality. This time, we would like to elevate this further by providing ease for the market who are so eager now to travel around the Philippines,” said Joy de Mesa, Group Director of Sales and Marketing of Robinsons Hotels and Resorts.




    GO 24/7

    “Revenge Travel” has been the trending term since 2022. Everyone is taking every chance they get to release their frustrations of cancelled plans and trips because of the restrictive Covid-19 pandemic.

    With this uptrend in travel, Robinsons Hotels and Resorts has chosen to empower their guests by breaking the boundaries of traditional hotel stay period of the usual 2pm to 4pm check-in schedule through its GO 24/7 signature offer.

    Starting 3.2.23 or March 2, 2023, vacationers and business travelers are now able to check in anytime of the day and stay within a 24-hour period nationwide. This offers a customizable itinerary for everyone who would want to maximize their schedules and activities.

    The hassle-free booking will initially be available in seven (7) strategic Go Hotels properties namely: Dumaguete, Iloilo, Lanang-Davao, Mandaluyong, Otis-Manila, Puerto Princesa and Tacloban, for as low as Php1,600++.

    This offer is valid for stays booked 72 hours prior check-in date. Guests will have to declare their check-in time during booking and may only be allowed to make changes by calling the booked hotel until 48 hours prior to the check-in date, free of charge. If cancellation is made within 48 hours prior to the check-in date or the guest is a no-show, the first night shall be charged to the guest.

    To guarantee the booking, guests are required to pre-pay. Non-guaranteed reservations will only be held within a 24-hour period, otherwise it will automatically be released.

    “We may be the first to introduce this in the hospitality industry in the country, wherein guests can check in as soon as they arrive at the hotel, anytime of the day without additional charge. This ensures a hassle-free experience allowing them to #GoExploreMore,” said Nonito Cuizon, Marketing Director of Robinsons Hotels and Resorts.

    GO 24/7 is bookable through direct e-mails, direct calls, and in Go Hotels booking engine.


    GO 365

    Meanwhile, for the guests who like to plan ahead, Robinsons Hotels and Resorts has extended its booking availability from 15 days up to 365 days in advance of stay dates with a 10% discount off the best available rate. Pre-payment is required to guarantee reservation.

    With Go 365 guests can secure their preferred room type, activities, and other arrangements for their staycation. “Best tip is to pair these with your periodic promo flights, paid leaves and planned events, ensuring peace of mind knowing that your comfortable and safe stay is secured in advance,” Mr. Cuizon suggested.

    Available in all Go Hotels, Go Hotels Plus, Summit Hotels and Grand Summit Hotels, GO 365 is bookable only through website.




    GO BUY ONLINE

    Coming soon will be an addition to Robinsons Hotels and Resorts’ mobile accessibility. With the ease of messaging apps, Robinsons Hotels and Resorts will soon offer the messaging or chat option for guests to purchase online vouchers and bookings.

    A sneak peek to GO BUY ONLINE option enables guests to book and purchase via a unique chatbot and online boutique. This mobile feature optimizes the guests’ experience to explore the different packages and choose the one that best suits their preferences from a simple private message sent.

    "We are excited to offer our guests nationwide the GOGOGO campaign as part of our continued commitment to providing an exceptional RHR experience," said Joy De Mesa, Group Director at Robinsons Hotel and Resorts. "The GO 24/7, GO 365, and GO BUY ONLINE options provide guests with the flexibility and convenience they need to make the most of their stay with us and around their destination."

    The press launch was held in Summit Galleria Cebu, which has an 8.1 out of 10 rating on Booking.com and the 2022 Travelers' Choice Award from TripAdvisor.

    Max's Restaurant always surprises us with their Filipino classic Menu. Not to mention the all-time favorite "Sarap To The Bones" chicken, my personal favorite, by the way, Max's is introducing their new set of Rice Bowls starting this month. You will surely get a lot on your plate with a wide selection of Rice Bowls that will surely satisfy your cravings for delicious and filling Filipino food starting at PHP 149 only.






    New Rice Bowls | Starts at PHP 149

    To put you in a good mood, try Max's newest offerings, the Seafood Kare-Kare Rice Bowl made with a combination of shrimp, squid, and fish slowly cooked in a creamy peanut sauce; the Max's Spicy Tofu (another favorite of mine) headlined by deep-fried tofu cubes tossed in a special spicy mayo base and served with a side of fried egg; the Sweet and Sour Fish Fillet Rice Bowl made with breaded cream dory doused in a combination of sweet and tangy sauce; and the Chopsuey Rice Bowl which features a symphony of sauteed fresh vegetables, pork, shrimp, and chicken liver and gizzard.


    Those looking to reward themselves can order a Rice Bowl that will make them feel like a winner in every bite like the Sizzling Chicken made with coarsely chopped fried chicken and chicken liver, spiced up with white onion, celery and chili; the Beef Caldereta with fork-tender beef chunks in thick sauce topped with fried potatoes and carrots; and the Adobo Ribs which offers a unique twist on the classic taste of the well-loved adobo.



    Speaking of classic, in the mood for one? Max's Restaurant also pays tribute to Pinoy food loved by many for generations with the Crispy Pata, deep fried pig knuckles served with banana slices and atchara and the Kare-Kare Rice Bowl made the traditional way by slow braising ox tripe and beef shanks in thick peanut sauce and vegetables. There is also the Bangus Belly Paksiw Rice Bowl cooked using premium milkfish belly fillet and the Fish fillet in Black Bean Sauce with lightly breaded cream dory fillet slathered with red bell pepper strips, spring onions, ginger strips, and black bean sauce.



    New Flavor of Caramel Bar!

    Calamansi! Yes, it's Calamansi flavored Caramel Bar available at Max's Corner Bakery. Very good for Summer and its tasteful too! You should check this out too and oh, this is a good birthday gift, I tried this everytime!




    Max's Restaurant Opens Robinson's Galleria Cebu

    On March 9, 2019, Max's Restaurant opens its latest branch in the most beautiful Robinsons Mall in the Philippines, Robinsons Galleria Cebu. Situated in the Al Fresco area, Max's Restaurant - Robinsons Galleria is open from 9:00 AM to 9:00 in the evening. Should you have inquiries, please call 254-1111.



    With Max's Rice Bowls, customers can now enjoy real food fit to their every mood. And with over ten flavors to choose from, Max's has once again given its diners a reason to celebrate Everyday to the Max!



    "We understand our customers when they say that their mood affects the food they want to eat," said Max's Restaurant Chief Operating Officer, Paolo Serrano. "That's why we want to make sure that whatever mood they are in, they can always come to Max's Restaurant and enjoy a bowl of rice topped with their all-time Pinoy favorites."

    "Give love on Christmas day", there goes a famous line of a Christmas song. Indeed, the season of sharing is just around the corner! On November 5, 2016, The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf (CBTL) launched the Giving Journal 2017 together with a number of Cebu Bloggers in their Robinsons Galleria branch. This Coffee Company's Giving Journal 2017 reminds us that life is not about what we amass for ourselves, but about how we can share our gifts, talents, and time with others.
