MANILA -- Seda Vertis North in Quezon City celebrates the holidays with amped up hotelwide treats.

As one of the few 5-star hotels in this part of the metro, Seda Vertis North has steadily built its clientele and this year, the hotel offers buffet options, group packages, and a selection of gift options for the holidays.

“We understand the market a little bit better, so we’ve enhanced our group packages by offering a variety of packages that will cater to different sizes of groups -- from a small group to 500, depending on their budget requirements,” explained Cinty Yniguez, director of sales and marketing for Seda Vertis North.

For Christmas parties and get-togethers, the Straight Up roofdeck bar presents an irresistible option, as guests can enjoy a unique view of the city while sipping on cocktails or nibbling on Christmas delights like ham, turkey, or queso de bola. Packages start at P1,500 per head with a minimum of 50 persons, and come with an open bar package for 2 hours.

Straight Up will also be the venue for the hotel’s New Year Countdown party on December 31. For P4,500 per person, guests can enjoy free-flowing cocktails, hors d’ ouvres, assorted carvings and pastries, dancing courtesy of a live band, and an unhindered view of fireworks.
