Microtel breaks ground in GenSan

Damosa Land, Inc. (DLI), an affiliate company of the ANFLOCOR Group of Companies that is engaged in real estate and property development, finally broke grounds for the establishment of Microtel Hotels and Resorts in General Santos City last February 23, 2011.
“I am very delighted that after successfully establishing Microtel Hotels and Resorts Davao, we are now in this fast-rising City of General Santos to put up what we hope to be the second of a series of expansions of Microtel Hotels and Resorts in Mindanao,” said ANFLOCOR Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Ricardo R. Floirendo who also led the groundbreaking ceremony.
Microtel Hotels and Resorts GenSan, the newest project of DLI to rise along the National Highway, is the second Microtel Hotels and Resorts to be established in Mindanao and the tenth in the whole country.
“We have 9 operating properties here in the Philippines, all the way from Baguio down to Davao. And now, we are very happy to be the first international hotel chain to be present here in GenSan,” said Microtel Philippines President Jose Mari del Rosario.
Del Rosario believes that Microtel GenSan will contribute to the tourism industry and eminence of the City that the ‘Generals’, which the settlers of GenSan are called, have nurtured over the years.  
Likewise, Floirendo also looks forward that this development will contribute not only to the over-all progress of the tuna capital of the Philippines but will further elevate General Santos City to the forefront of Mindanao’s economy as well.
