It is a tradition for Crimson Hotel to start its yuletide season with a Tree Lighting Ceremony. This year’s theme is “Dito Tayo sa Pasko”. People gathered at the center of the hotel, dressed in Filipiana and Barong Tagalog, to witness the decorated Christmas tree with sinamay streamers, capiz shell ornaments, and woven miniatures.
The hotel went all out with the celebration as people witness performances from the soulful voices of Muntinlupa Chorale and filled their stomachs with bountiful merienda buffet such as fluffy bibingka, puto bumbong, and steaming cups of just-whisked tsokolate.
The Tree-lighting Ceremony was officiated by hotel General Manager Arlene G. Tongco, Chroma Hospitality Country Manager James Montenegro, Chroma Vice-president for Sales and Marketing Carmela Bocanegra, and Mr. Roger John Smith, deputy city administrator of Muntinlupa.
Likewise, the event also included the formal turnover of Chroma Hospitality’s donation to Project Pink Support Group, the proceeds from October’s Passionately Pink campaign in support of breast cancer conquerors and their families. The organization was represented by Ms. Angie J. Laborte
In her opening remarks, Tongco stated, “I believe that Christmas 2022 is going to be one punctuated by meaningful gatherings in light of the seclusion we all felt throughout the pandemic.”
Live Love Local for the Holidays
"Dito Tayo sa Pasko" also serves as the culmination of Chroma Hospitality’s Live Love Local program wherein hotels under the Crimson, Quest, and Timberland brands showed off the finest products made by local artisans using uniquely Filipino materials or ingredients.
It also celebrates the best of Filipino hospitality through a selection of staycation packages that will give families a welcome - and elegant - change, a home away from home for the Holidays with uniquely local flair and flavor.
This spirit extends to the different dining offerings and gift selections at Cafe Eight and Baker J where traditional dishes of the Filipino Pasko are given a delectable continental treatment: an East Meets West twist that is bound to delight the senses in numerous ways. Likewise, Alibi Lounge・Bar’s Holiday cocktails add a grown-up spin to traditional treats, definitely perfect for making merry this Christmas and the New Year.
