A Court Like No Other

February 16th, 2011 by Mr. O in Lifestyle | No Comments »

If you havent tried Victoria Court’s theme rooms, I highly suggest you try out one of the unique themed rooms in any of their branches in Pasig, Las Pinas, Manila, Quezon City or Pasay City.  The rooms were expertly done and with taste, I personally like the Oval Office theme room. A cute replica of the US President’s office in Washington, see how it feels to be in the seat of Global power!

The Oval Office theme room has basically two rooms, one is the receiving room and the other, a large bedroom with a very large shower and comfort room that would fit 15-20 guests at a time. Guests will be greeted by portraits of past presidents and the famous Presidents Seal while still at the parking garage. Talk about setting the mood…

Another large theme room perfect for that family or barkada getaway is the venice room. complete with Gondola (which until now i dont know how they managed to bring it up in the room) and stream, this Venetian inspired theme room is great for those video or photo shoots such as pre-nups or bridal showers.

From Venice, VC takes you to Paris, a hundred years ago. Frustrated actors and actresses can act out their fantasies at the Bohemian inspired Moulin Rouge theme room. I can say this room has been done beautifully by VC’s architects. Craftfully done the Moulin Rouge theme room is one of the best dressed rooms I’ve seen so far. Entering the garage area, guests are immediately welcomed  with a theater like scene themed garage.  Going up the room, the stairs are decorated with rose petals and once entering the room, you will be taken a hundred years back in Paris.  The bed is also decorated with rose petals and persian carpets surrounds main bedroom area. A large jacuzzi is also available (maybe good for 5 people at a time). Scenes of the nightlife in Paris a century ago adorn the rest of the room. Appropriate for friends get-togethers and video or photo shoots.

Detailed and tastefully done, the Boehmian inspired Moulin Rouge theme room gives you that feeling that you are in another world.

For the comic book hero fanatics, dont fret because Victoria Court has a room perfect for you,  presenting the    X-  Men theme room complete with Professor Xavier’s chair with smoke machine effect on a push of a button.  Don’t  worry if Wolverine and the rest of the X-men heroes drop by, the room can perfectly fit 10 to 15 individuals at a  time.  The gray and white marbled bathroom is fitted with a jacuzzi pool big enough for 2 invidivuals but about  right for 4 to 5 people at a time. The shower and comfort room is located at the back of the jacuzzi area so there is  still privacy.

Kids and adult alike will surely enjoy the X-Men room. Room service is just a phone call away and you’ll be assured  that you get your order in a flash.  There is also a 30″ LCD screen with cable and WI-FI in selected VC branches in  the metro.

One thing i like about Victoria Court, there is no room alike that can be found among their hotels in the  Philippines.  Providing a unique experience for all their guests in all of its branches.  The other non-themed rooms  are also have its own unique design and the experience will surely be different from the other non-themed rooms  of the hotel.

VC also offers a wide variety of food that is carefully crafted by our Food and Beverage Department. It has an exciting 300+ delectable, savory dishes on its menu. VC doesn’t only offers you great, outstanding rooms but also excellent dishes.

VC has also set a time standard in delivering its core product to its guests known as Service Challenge. To ensure that guests are aware of the commitment of the company in delivering the right product at the right time, a Service Challenge poster is posted in each and every room garage.

Victoria Court is proud to carry on the tradition of providing quality service to its guests by living and breathing its philosophy that “The Customer is King”

Online Directory -Discover the New Market for Buying or Selling

October 15th, 2010 by Mr. O in Tech Reviews | No Comments »

The online directory has evolved as the new market for conducting business deals. If you are a seller, let your product reach your customers and as a buyer, enjoy a greater variety at the best price. Read on to find out what potential benefits an online directory holds for you.

The trends of marketing and selling undergo change from time to time and are always evolving. Sellers try to find new and innovative ways to reach their customers. While for large companies and multinational corporations, it’s possible to spend a huge amount of money to get a few minutes on TV to advertise their products, it is not possible for middle sized and small businesses to do the same. They are still mostly limited to newspapers and pamphlets until the internet was introduced as a new tool of marketing. However, with the entry of new firm’s everyday in the market, it is not easy to reach your customers on the internet, even when your product has the potential to take the market by storm. It is important that you reach your customer in order to let him know about your product.

An interesting way out of this problem is in the form of an online directory. Now, what is an online directory and how can it help in reaching out to your customers better than any other medium? An online directory is very much like the good old yellow pages that you might know well. The only difference being, it is much more sophisticated. An online directory offers a common platform for buyers and sellers to meet their needs. Any seller registered with the online directory website can put up its products for the buyers who need and search for it. Buyers on the other hand can go through all the products displayed or search for anything specific that they need. Thus, in a way, it expands the choices for both sellers and buyers. Sellers get a wider customer base while buyers enjoy a greater variety without having to look into several websites, they can find a range of options all at one place.

The products are divided into categories to make it convenient for buyers to look for exactly what they need. Buyers can also advertise and mention what are the features that they are looking for in the product and sellers can contact them with their product. Similarly sellers can advertise their products under the relevant categories in an attractive way, including the contact details for the buyers to contact them. There are other different methods by which they can contact buyers. Some online directories even provide an option of sending messages regarding buyers to sellers and vice-versa via mail or on a mobile. Thus it gives great flexibility. The advantage for sellers lies in the fact that they have an opportunity to present their product to a customer who actually requires the product rather than to a general audience. Secondly even small businesses can make their presence felt, which is very difficult otherwise. As for the buyers, they can get the best deal with so many sellers offering the same product. They can choose the product that offers them the best quality at the most affordable price.

If you have a business and are looking to increase your customer base, registering with a leading online directory can be a big step in making your presence felt in the respective market. If you want to buy or sell in the Philippines (http://redpages.ph/how_to_buy-find_sellers_yourself.html) for example, an online directory based in the Philippines will serve your purpose well.
