Japan-based Universal Entertainment Corp. plans to double the number of hotel rooms at its Okada Manila resort in the Philippines from 500 to 1,000 after posting operating losses of JPY17.97 billion ($US$161 million) in 2018.
In an email to Inside Asian Gaming, Universal said the new rooms will promote “growth in the casino business as well as better position the resort to host large group events and foreign tour groups.” The firm will also add a VIP casino, more restaurants and a larger shopping mall.
