As the “Ber” months begin, the Philippines officially enters its much-anticipated Christmas season. At Belmont Hotel Manila, the festive spirit comes with a distinctly Filipino touch through Simbang Gabi Favorites, the first offering of the hotel’s Paskong Pinoy Christmas celebration.
For business travelers coming to Manila for meetings, conferences, and work trips, celebrating the holidays does not have to wait until the day’s agenda is over. Available daily at the hotel driveway beside the Bike + Brew Kiosk, Simbang Gabi Favorites brings familiar Filipino Christmas treats within easy reach. Guests can enjoy them as a convenient afternoon merienda between meetings, share a casual treat during a client catch-up, or take some home before heading to the airport.
Situated in Newport City, Belmont Hotel Manila offers direct access to NAIA Terminal 3 through Runway Manila, making it a convenient choice for travelers with busy schedules. With Simbang Gabi Favorites just steps away, guests can easily enjoy a taste of Filipino Christmas tradition without having to go far from their room, meeting, or next appointment.
For business travelers, a box of warm bibingka can add a distinctly Filipino touch to an afternoon client meeting. It also makes a thoughtful pasalubong, giving guests an easy way to bring the flavours of Filipino Christmas home to colleagues, loved ones, and business partners.

At the center of Simbang Gabi Favorites are two beloved Filipino Christmas treats. Freshly prepared, warm, and lightly charred, bibingka is a traditional rice cake closely linked to the Simbang Gabi season. Another holiday staple, puto bumbong, is made from glutinous rice and traditionally served with butter, coconut, and sugar.
Guests can also enjoy a modern interpretation of the classic with Puto Bumbong with Dulce de Leche and Leche Flan, combining familiar Filipino flavours with an indulgent contemporary twist.
For the perfect pairing, Tsokolate Baterol offers a rich and comforting Filipino hot chocolate made with tablea. Together with the Christmas favourites, it creates a warm treat suited for cool evenings, afternoon merienda, and holiday gatherings.
From casual business meetings and office merienda to celebrations with family and friends, Simbang Gabi Favorites are designed to be enjoyed and shared. They also make convenient Christmas pasalubong for travelers who want to bring a taste of Filipino holiday tradition wherever they go.
