Seda Ayala Center Cebu: Business and Leisure Hotel for the Discerning Traveler

I’m a self-proclaimed “Ayala Boy” ever since I started studying in Cebu for college. Even after graduation, I landed a job in Cebu Business Park (CBP) wherein my office is located just right across Seda (previously Cebu City Marriott Hotel). From visiting Ayala Center Cebu (mall) during class breaks to going to CHC (workplace) every week – then and now – passing by Seda Hotel has always been a daily routine.

Getting a glimpse of Seda’s fascade from the viewpoint of my small office window can’t be avoided and I would be lying if I say I didn’t daydream about staying at Seda once in my life. And finally, after fifteen long years, I decided to make that dream happen and book an overnight stay at Seda Hotel Ayala Center Cebu. 

In the hospitality industry these days, Seda’s authentic Filipino services are where it’s at. That being said, everything about Seda is an experience of itself.

Wearing the hat of either a business traveler or a leisure traveler, these are some of the things I love about Seda Ayala Center Cebu.

What I Love about Seda Ayala Center Cebu

1.) Strategic location

Seda Ayala Center Cebu is very close to shops and restaurants and entertainment within a premier business and vibrant lifestyle hub district in Cebu.

Given Cebu’s status as the center of business and commerce in the area, Seda Ayala Center Cebu is the current brand’s biggest hotel in the Visayas.

2.) Service at par with Global Standards

Staying true to Seda’s unique brand of Filipino hospitality and service efficiency, Seda offers a quality experience for all discerning travelers.

May it be during big event or a simple occasion, Sampaguita Ballroom is ideal for banquets of up to 350 persons and may be used as three separate venues for smaller events.

With Seda’s well-furnished function areas and hands-on events team, the Seda Hotel management assure you that every special occasion will indeed be spectacular.

3.) Seamless and Fun Experience

  • Pool Bar – Snacks and thirst-quenchers in a charming garden setting. Garden level | Open 6:00 am to 10:00 pm daily

Your partner and kids will definitely love the pool area, I bet!

  • E-lounge

How about iMac workstations at the lobby with complimentary WiFi? This spells EDGY!

4.) Prime Product & Service Offerings

This business and leisure hotel is anchored on Ayala Center Cebu’s prime venue while offering shopping, recreation and leisure activities at their doorstep. Foodie travelers and avid shoppers can drop by at Misto in Seda’s premises to experience a unique gastronomic journey.

  • Misto – Offers a range of international classics and local favorites that can be enjoyed both indoors or outdoors while overlooking the pool.

When staying at Seda, wake up to the delish aroma of its breakfast buffet that will surely fill your tummy with sumptuous food choices.

Buffet breakfast and buffet lunch are served daily and a la carte for the rest of the day. Misto is located at Lobby Level and opens from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm daily.

5.) State-of-the-Art Accommodations

The 301-room hotel merges past and present through a seamless transition from its historical role in the development of the city’s economic hub to its reintroduction as Seda Ayala Center Cebu.

Boasting a 29-square-meter room, you can choose from Deluxe or Club accommodation. Deluxe is a modern, flexible space equipped with requisite amenities for today’s traveler. Club is a retreat for those who appreciate the exclusivity and range of privileges at the Club Lounge.

Whether you travel in Cebu for business or leisure, you can never go wrong with Seda’s lit accommodation. You can relax and do whatever your heart desires to satisfy the comfort you truly deserve.

Overall, I really had a fun staycation at Seda Ayala Center Cebu. With all the excellent services and world-class offerings, staying at Seda totally exceeded my expectation. I will definitely spend another staycation at Seda Ayala Center Cebu soon!
