Hilton Hotels in the Philippines is set to take the country by storm this October, as they proudly celebrate their historical connection to the world-famous Piña Colada cocktail. Originating in 1954 at Caribe Hilton in Puerto Rico, thanks to the ingenuity of bartender Ramon “Monchito” Marrero, Hilton Hotels showcases its pioneering spirit in the hospitality industry.
Throughout the month of October, Hilton Hotels across the Philippines are inviting guests to savor the beloved Piña Colada in its true glory. From the luxurious Conrad Manila to the vibrant Hilton Manila and the serene Hilton Clark Sun Valley Resort, each property has curated unique experiences to honor the iconic drink.
For an upscale and immersive experience, Conrad Manila offers a variety of ways to enjoy the classic Piña Colada and its unique variations. At C Lounge, the hotel’s bar overlooking the picturesque Manila Bay, guests can immerse themselves in the refined ambiance of Piña Colada Nights. Here, patrons can indulge in the timeless Piña Colada or savor the hotel’s inventive twist on this iconic cocktail at P450, all while swaying to the rhythmic beats of Latin music and other genres performed live by a live band every Monday to Thursday from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
C Lounge also offers a Piña Colada-themed Afternoon Tea at P2,688 per set featuring a special array of sweet and savory treats partnered with coffee, tea, or Pina Colada — a nod to this beloved beverage. Additionally, guests seeking a non-alcoholic option can relish the refreshing flavors of the Virgin Piña Colada at P330. In line with Hilton’s commitment to sustainability, an eco-friendly initiative takes center stage at C Lounge as all alcoholic orders of the celebrated cocktail are thoughtfully served in coconut shells, ensuring that the hotel not only provides an exquisite experience but also contributes to a greener, more eco-conscious future. C Lounge is open daily from 11:00 AM — 12:00 MN.
Over at Hilton Manila, guests are invited to step into the shoes of a mixologist with their engaging and educational Piña Colada experience — a Make Your Own Cocktail promotion at the Freestyle pool bar for only P650 per drink. Available all Fridays to Saturdays of October, from 1:00 PM — 3:00 PM, Piña Colada aficionados have the unique opportunity to learn the art of crafting their very own refreshing drink while soaking in the breathtaking view of the hotel’s iconic swimming pool, creating an atmosphere infused with a tropical zest.
