Marriott Manila General Manager Bruce Winton lauded Eastern Communications as a connectivity partner, describing how Eastern has provided internet speed of up to 450 Mbps.  

This fast and stable internet connection is a great asset for Marriot Manila as the hotel has also expanded over the years, with the addition of more hotel rooms, the West Wing, and the Grand Ballroom, which is one of the largest meeting facilities in the country.  

Winton shared that they’ve had as much as 10,000 users simultaneously connected to their public area WiFi.   

He added: “Needless to say, no General Manager in our business would want 10,000 unhappy guests. I’m not a technical guy … but I’ll tell you what’s important to me, and that is 10,000 happy users. And I’m very pleased to say that is the case.”
