Hann Philippines, Inc. proudly announces its major expansion project for Hann Casino Resort, its flagship property at the heart of Clark Freeport Zone. This reinforces its commitment to leadership excellence in gaming and hospitality, and real estate development in Central Luzon. Since it opened in 2021, Hann Casino Resort’s impressive architectural structure has become an iconic landmark of Clark, located at the corner of M.A. Roxas and Claro M. Recto Avenues. Standing on the 11-hectare property is officially the first fully-integrated resort in Central Luzon. Three years of growth in Clark, the positive outlook for tourism and gaming in the region are significant indicators to proceed with an expansion plan that will address current market demands and introduce new concepts that will excite our discerning markets and lifestyle seekers.
PROJECT CONCEPT & TIMELINE
The expansion project adds an impressive 22,113 sq.m. to the existing Hann Casino Resort, creating a vibrant space for both gaming and non-gaming activities. With 5,093 sq.m. dedicated to gaming, ground floor area of 3,590 sq.m. for over 60 new gaming tables and more than 500 slot machines, and a second-floor area of 1,504 sq.m. for private gaming and dining.
Part of the expansion project is a set of brand-new concepts of cafe and restaurants. On the second floor VIP gaming area will be a specialty restaurant that will serve Korean, Japanese and Chinese fine-dining options.
On the ground floor will be a casual dining experience of this flavorful East Asian cuisine from Korea, Japan and China. At the crossings that lead to the new wing/expansion area will be an amazing central coffee & tea haven that will take everyone on a journey to the Silk Road with its wide range of coffee and tea selection sourced from all over the world. Every cup tells a tale. This sanctuary blends naturally into a friendly cocktail and wine lounge in the evenings for a most cozy nightlife.
