During a press conference, Hyun Bin praised the warmth of the Filipino people and the impeccable service he experienced at Solaire. “From the moment I arrived, everyone has been so warm and welcoming,” he said. “I’ve heard many good things about Manila but experiencing it for myself — it’s even more wonderful than I expected.”
Solaire, the Philippines’ first integrated resort, has long positioned itself as a leader in the country’s luxury hospitality sector. With over 800 rooms and suites offering panoramic views, 18 dining concepts, and a full suite of leisure and entertainment facilities, the property continues to attract discerning guests from across the globe.
Hyun Bin described his stay as serene and memorable, highlighting the elegant accommodations and attention to detail that made it easy for him to relax and recharge. “The hotel is very beautiful,” he noted. “One thing that really stood out to me is the incredible view from my room—especially during sunset. It’s truly breathtaking… The bed is so soft and comfortable, and the whole room feels very calm and private—perfect for recharging after a busy schedule.”
Hyun Bin’s visit coincides with the brand’s strategic expansion through Solaire Resort North in Quezon City. Designed to cater to both business and leisure travelers in the northern metro, the newly opened development extends the signature blend of Filipino warmth and world-class standards that the brand is known for.
The Korean actor also expressed excitement about sampling Filipino cuisine, highlighting adobo as a standout dish recommended by his Korean friends. ‘It was very delicious—rich and flavorful,’ he said, adding that he looks forward to trying more local specialties during his stay.
Industry observers note that hosting high-profile international personalities such as Hyun Bin highlights the Philippines’ growing appeal as a destination for luxury travelers. By providing a seamless and memorable experience to a global icon, Solaire demonstrates the strength of Filipino hospitality as a competitive edge in Asia’s tourism landscape.
As Hyun Bin continues to engage with fans in Manila, his glowing impressions of the country—particularly the warmth of its people and the caliber of its hospitality—serve as an authentic endorsement for the Philippines as a world-class travel destination.
