BACOLOD CITY, PHILIPPINES — Citadines Bacolod City, a premier hotel managed by the international hospitality chain The Ascott Limited, is firmly establishing itself as the region’s destination for both momentous events and sumptuous dining experiences. Strategically located along the vibrant Lacson Street corridor, the property seamlessly pairs Bacolod’s modern MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) spaces with an ambitious culinary footprint featuring five distinct food and beverage concepts to accompany your stay.

Elevating Events to New Heights
Designed to cater to the city's growing demand for large-scale conventions, high-profile corporate functions, and grand milestone celebrations, Citadines Bacolod City boasts exceptional event infrastructure.
The crown jewel of the property is its Grand Ballroom named Buglas, a striking, pillarless venue featuring an impressive 6-meter-high ceiling. Offering ultimate flexibility, Buglas utilizes movable partitions to adapt effortlessly to any event scale. At full capacity, the expansive space spans 938 square meters and comfortably hosts up to 830 guests for cocktail receptions or 640 diners for banquet events.
For smaller corporate gatherings, board meetings, or collaborative sessions, the property also features four tech-forward, executive meeting spaces, providing an inspiring environment for meaningful business conversations.

A Vibrant Culinary Destination: 5 Distinct Concepts
Complementing its massive event capabilities, Citadines Bacolod City elevates the local dining landscape by housing five unique on-site food and beverage outlets. Each venue brings a curated flavor profile and atmosphere to the property:
Namit All-Day Dining: Located on the mezzanine floor, this 70-seat restaurant celebrates the rich heritage of local Filipino and Southeast Asian flavors. It is home to the property’s celebrated, abundant breakfast buffet and features elevated regional classics.
Fuego Bar + Lounge: Taking visual and culinary inspiration from the majestic volcanoes of the Negros region, this intimate 50-seat mezzanine steakhouse fires up premium cuts of steak, artisanal antipasti boards, curated sides, and signature craft cocktails.
Pureza Lobby Cafe: A 24-hour artisanal haven on the ground floor, Pureza brings European-style boulangerie and French viennoiserie to go-getters, serving as the perfect, unhurried stop for a premium caffeine fix and freshly baked pastries.
Tam-Is Pastry Shop: Lovingly named after the Hiligaynon word for "sweet," this ground-floor counter pays tribute to Negros as the sugar bowl of the Philippines. Open 24 hours, it offers innovative, localized treats like Banana Bread and various cakes, meant to be enjoyed over conversations or a quick bite to go.
Adlao Pool Bar: Situated on the third floor next to the infinity pool, Adlao, meaning "sunshine"—invites guests to unwind with refreshing juices, tropical cocktails, and light bites while soaking in the panoramic city views.

The Ultimate Seamless Experience
By combining vast, sophisticated event venues with an unparalleled variety of dining options, Citadines Bacolod City offers planners, business travelers, and locals a completely self-contained hospitality experience. Event organizers can effortlessly pair a large-scale conference in Buglas with a premium steak dinner at Fuego, a casual poolside cocktail hour at Adlao, or custom local catering handled by the talented culinary team.
Whether orchestrating an international convention or looking for the city's finest dining options, Citadines Bacolod City delivers international hospitality steeped in genuine Negrense warmth.
