Nuwa Manila at City of Dreams joins the roster of first hotels in the world to become Sharecare Health Security verified with Forbes Travel Guide.
The comprehensive facility verification helps ensure that guests and travel planners can book with confidence at properties that have appropriate health safety procedures in place.
This verification comes with an easily identifiable “seal of approval” — the Sharecare verified with Forbes Travel Guide badge — based on a hotel’s compliance with expert-validated best practices that minimize the risk and impact of COVID-19 and potential future public health events.
“We are honored to be among the first, not only in the country but in the world, to be recognized by Forbes Travel Guide and Sharecare for our safety and security standards. We are proud of this badge for recognizing our colleagues’ commitment to provide our guests and colleaguesa safe and worry-free environment especially amid these uncertain times,” Geoff Andres, City of Dreams Manila Property President, said.
Nuwa Manila has been awarded Five-Star for three years running by Forbes Travel Guide, the global authority on genuine Five-Star service.
“The pandemic has made it clear that hotels and resorts must, first and foremost, assure guests of their safety,” said Filip Boyen, CEO of Forbes Travel Guide.
“By becoming verified, Nuwa Manila has demonstrated its commitment to creating a culture of accountability and following global best practices to heighten health security, certified by a third party.”
Developed by Forbes Travel Guide and digital health industry leader Sharecare, the comprehensive verification covers more than 360 standards across health and hygiene protocols, cleaning products and procedures, ventilation, physical distancing, the guest experience, and health safety communication with guests and employees.
Hotels are required to verify their health protocols on an ongoing basis to ensure continued compliance with the most up-to-date global health standards.
