Shangri-la Hotels are one of our favourite hotels when we travel. The latest Shangri-la at the Fort is a project wherein I heard the owners are very hands on with the details
Many textures all over the place
Beautiful artwork by Bea Valdes @beavaldesdesign at the lobby reception
Beautiful ladies – Joy Mirabueno and Nicole Coromina – Account Managers of Horizon Homes, Shangrila Fort Manila. If you’re interested in a home at Shangrila @shangrilafort look for them. The residences will have a separate entrance from the hotel, so you can be assured of privacy

You will see a lot of quotes around the place 🙂
And religious articles because Tita Nena is very religious 🙂

Love the garden!
This area is for guests and a place to congregate. Tita Nena has retreats here sometimes with her friend priests and nuns 🙂
heart shaped 🙂
The kitchen had things that are to be sorted and stored which explains the plastic containers
Utility area and area for the staff
The staff – Analee and Arnel – the caretakers that live here with their family. They take care of the house so well – they were trained by Tita Nena so of course they are very good. The guy in black, Alex the carpenter is the one who made all the quotes around the house! 
Love their uniform!
Room for the staff plus an underground home for the caretaker’s family
