In a metro filled with fast-paced living and concrete chaos, the idea of a place that invites you to slow down, take care of yourself, and live well sounds almost too good to be true. But with the formal introduction of the VS Hotel Convention Center in Quezon City, that concept is now a tangible reality.
The launch took place on June 12, just a day before Philippine Independence Day—a fitting moment to unveil a space anchored on the idea of reclaiming freedom, not just as a nation but in how we live our lives. More than just a new hotel along EDSA, VS positions itself as a haven where wellness, productivity, and relaxation coexist.
The program was headlined by Undersecretary Joee Guilas of the Office of the President for Strategic Partnerships and Engagements, who served as guest speaker. Known to many as a former PTV News anchor and Star Awards Best Male Newscaster, Usec. Guilas brought both warmth and insight to his address.
“The VS Hotel Convention Center isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a space designed to inspire,” he said. “In a time when people are looking for more than just convenience, this facility answers that call by offering a complete lifestyle experience rooted in wellness, community, and meaningful connection.”
That philosophy is evident in every corner of the hotel. According to General Manager Mario Isic, the vision from day one was to create something beyond traditional hospitality.
“We envisioned a space where business travelers, families, and even fitness enthusiasts can all feel at home,” Isic shared. “Every detail of this facility—from our courts to our spa clinics—was built with well-being in mind.”
Guests can enjoy a wide range of amenities: basketball, tennis, and badminton courts; a 24/7 gym; indoor and outdoor swimming pools; a dance studio; private cinemas; high-end skincare and spa clinics; and a diverse selection of restaurants and cafés. Whether you’re staying overnight, working remotely, or just visiting to unwind, the hotel encourages an integrated lifestyle approach.
To introduce guests to the full experience, an audio-visual presentation (AVP) was shown during the event. The immersive reel offered a virtual tour of the facilities, highlighting the hotel’s sleek architecture, vibrant activity areas, and wellness-driven atmosphere. It was a clear statement: this is not just a stopover—it’s a destination.
“This isn’t just about rooms and reservations,” said Marketing Head Ralph Torres. “It’s about offering people an environment that supports their lifestyle goals. We’re creating a space that speaks to both comfort and personal growth.”
From the AVP to the speeches, the mood of the event made one thing clear: VS Hotel Convention Center isn’t just joining the hospitality scene—it’s reshaping it. With its unique combination of leisure, wellness, and community, it sets a new standard for what a hotel can be.
In a time when self-care is no longer a luxury but a necessity, VS Hotel Convention Center offers a timely and refreshing shift. It’s not just about checking in—it’s about checking in with yourself.
VS Hotel is also highly accessible, located at the Victoria Sports Tower – Station II along EDSA, right between the GMA-Kamuning and Quezon Avenue MRT stations. It’s a short hop to some of Quezon City’s most popular food spots in Timog Avenue and Tomas Morato, while Trinoma and SM North EDSA are just two train stops away—making it a convenient and connected choice for travelers and tourists alike.
