Masskara 2008 is fast approaching. Have you Booked your Bacolod Hotel already?
Posted by on August 3, 2008
The 2008 Masskara Festival in Bacolod City is fast approaching. Some contingents are already starting to rehearse their dance routines. Designs for the costumes, headdresses and masks are already in order. Expect hundreds of dancers in colourful costumes decked with all the beads, sequins and bells and the face covered with smiling masks all dance to the lively Masskara Festival Streetdance Music.
While the dancers are busy polishing their dance routines right now, have you already made your hotel reservation for the 29th Masskara Festival Celebration in Bacolod?
Why not book at Bacolod’s first and only Boutique Hotel? The Sylvia Manor is one of the relatively new hotels in Bacolod City. It has opened its doors only in 2006. The Sylvia Manor hotel in Bacolod is a great location to stay in for the Masskara Festival because it is just one block away from Araneta Street, the route of the annual Masskara Streetdance Competition. Araneta Street is also a host to other Masskara Festival activities like the Charter Day parade and the Countdown to Charter day street party.
Sylvia Manor is also a stone throw away from several tourist spots in the city like the Fountain of Justice, Bacolod City Public Plaza, Bacolod City Cathedral and the Manukan Country (where you can get your fill of Chicken Inasal).
The Sylvia Manor hotel is also adjacent to several shops and stores for the shopaholics and food lovers. Lopue’s Department Store is just nearby, while on the other end is the new SM City Bacolod shopping mall. Manukan Country and Jo’s Chicken Inato is just around the corner as well.
Aside from its prime location, The Sylvia Manor is a good deal for tourists. They are reasonably priced for the very good service they offer. Rooms are air conditioned, hot and cold shower, cable television and free wireless internet access. Each day comes with complimentary buffet breakfast. Superior rooms have a refrigerator and a mini bar.
You can learn more about this hotel by visiting their website or directly make a reservation here.
