Via Appia Tagaytay Named Emerging Hotel in Asia at the ACES Awards 2026

AGAYTAY, PHILIPPINES – Media OutReach Newswire – 19 October 2026 – Via Appia Tagaytay has been recognized as the Emerging Hotel in Asia 2026 at the prestigious ACES Awards, marking a significant milestone for the Italian-inspired boutique hotel and its growing presence in the region's hospitality landscape.

Via Appia Tagaytay Hotel was recognised among Emerging Hotels in Asia at ACES Awards 2026 for its distinctive hospitality experience.

The recognition celebrates Via Appia Tagaytay's distinctive approach to boutique hospitality, bringing together Italian-inspired design, personalized VIP service, meaningful celebrations, and digital innovation to create guest experiences that are elegant, intimate, and memorable. Inspired by the historic Via Appia Antica, one of ancient Rome's oldest and most iconic roads, the hotel takes its name from a timeless symbol of journey, connection, and enduring elegance. At Via Appia Tagaytay, that spirit is reimagined as an invitation to pause, connect, celebrate, and create meaningful stories. At the heart of the property is the question "Quo Vadis?" — Where are you going? For Via Appia, the answer is toward experiences worth remembering. Whether the journey leads to a wedding, anniversary, romantic escape, family celebration, corporate retreat, or simply a much-needed pause, Via Appia Tagaytay is designed to transform each stay into something personal.

An Italian-Inspired Escape in Tagaytay

Positioned as an Italian Boutique Hotel, Via Appia Tagaytay brings the atmosphere of an Italian escape to one of the Philippines' most beloved leisure destinations. The property features 51 rooms, Italian-inspired architecture and landscaped surroundings, intimate spaces, wedding and event venues, an indoor pool, wellness facilities, and a replica of the Domine Quo Vadis Chapel. Its experiences range from Tuscan-inspired weddings and romantic dinners to personalized stays, wellness escapes, family gatherings, and intimate celebrations. Rather than focusing solely on accommodation, Via Appia Tagaytay is building its identity around experiences designed to be difficult to replicate.

Where Italian Elegance Meets Filipino Hospitality

Via Appia Tagaytay believes that true luxury is not simply about scale or extravagance, it is about being remembered. Through services such as VIP Butler Service, personalized welcome cards, birthday and anniversary surprises, and a dedicated Event Concierge, the hotel seeks to treat every guest as an individual rather than a room number. This philosophy is captured in its brand promise: "Experience Italy in the Heart of Tagaytay." The goal is to combine the charm of an Italian-inspired escape with the warmth, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality that define the Filipino experience.

Hospitality Designed for the Digital Traveler

While rooted in history, Via Appia Tagaytay is equally focused on the future. Its digital guest experience incorporates Digital Check-in, Express Checkout, QR Menus, WhatsApp and Viber Concierge, Digital Butler services, online room selection, electronic registration, mobile payment, and guest messaging.

A Destination for Love, Celebration and Connection

The property is also developing its position as a destination for life's most meaningful occasions, from Tuscan-inspired garden weddings, intimate and micro weddings, sunset celebrations, Catholic weddings, and destination weddings to proposals, anniversaries, honeymoons, babymoons, engagements, and romantic dinners. It also welcomes families, corporate groups, faith-based organizations, and retreat participants, creating a versatile destination for both intimate milestones and meaningful gatherings. The ACES 2026 recognition affirms Via Appia Tagaytay's vision of becoming one of Tagaytay's preferred boutique destinations for romance, weddings, celebrations, family stays, corporate retreats, and personalized VIP hospitality. For Via Appia Tagaytay, the journey is only beginning. Quo Vadis? Where are you going? Toward a place where every arrival has a story, every celebration has a setting, and every stay becomes a memory worth taking home.

BERLIN, GERMANY - Media OutReach Newswire - 19 October 2026 - Eureka has introduced the FloorShine 470 to the German market, bringing together wet-and-dry cleaning, access beneath low furniture and automated brush care in one appliance. Designed for everyday hard-floor maintenance, the model aims to make routine cleaning more manageable without adding unnecessary complexity.

Eureka Introduces FloorShine 470, Bringing All-Round Wet-and-Dry Cleaning to German Homes

As wet-and-dry floor cleaners offer an increasing range of advanced features, the practical needs of households remain relatively straightforward: dealing with everyday spills, removing dust and hair, and keeping floors clean with less effort. The FloorShine 470 responds to these needs with a well-rounded combination of cleaning and maintenance features, available at a recommended retail price of €279.

For everyday cleaning, the FloorShine 470 delivers up to 17,000 Pa of suction to collect dry debris and liquid spills, from kitchen crumbs to dirt brought in from outdoors. An integrated anti-tangle mechanism helps prevent hair from wrapping around the brush roller, reducing interruptions during regular use.

The cleaner's 180-degree lie-flat design allows it to reach beneath sofas, beds and other low-clearance furniture without requiring users to move heavy items. An internal water duct system helps prevent wastewater from flowing back when the appliance is fully reclined. Its edge-cleaning brush also reaches close to walls and skirting boards, addressing areas that can be difficult to clean thoroughly.

Cleaning the floor is only part of the routine. After use, the FloorShine 470's automated self-cleaning and hot-air drying system helps prepare the brush roller for its next use by reducing residual moisture. A redesigned water-tank configuration supports easier maneuvering, while separate clean- and dirty-water tanks simplify everyday floor washing.

Together, these features reflect Eureka's approach to bringing practical cleaning capabilities into a single, accessible appliance, without requiring households to move into a higher-priced product category.

Pricing and Availability

The Eureka FloorShine 470 is now available on the official Eureka Germany website, with a recommended retail price of €279. Actual local prices and promotional offers may vary. Consumers can also search for Eureka FloorShine 470 on Amazon.
