HEALTH AND SAFETY
Embracing the “New Normal” of Travel and Hospitality at The Alpha Suites
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered coronavirus. The coronavirus pandemic has compelled businesses worldwide to adjust their operating practices for the safety of their clients, customers, and staff.
For more information on COVID-19, please visit the official site of the World Health Organization at www.who.int and the Department of Health at www.doh.gov.ph
As we navigate through the new normal of travel, The Alpha Suites—an accredited Multiple-Use Hotel by the Department of Tourism (DOT) and Bureau of Quarantine (BOQ)—remains committed to maintaining the highest standards of hospitality while reinventing the way we deliver guest experiences for a safe and worry-free stay at your five-star home in the city.
Our Safety Seal certifies that we are compliant with government health and safety standards. Here are the specific steps that we are implementing as part of our commitment to keeping The Alpha Suites 100% free of COVID-19:
- Continuous monitoring of the guidelines of Philippine and global public health authorities (including the World Health Organization) for health and safety protocol
- Screening all guests for COVID-19 risks by requiring them to present either a negative Antigen Swab Test or RT-PCR Swab Test result from Aegle and having them complete travel and health screening prior to check-in.
- Mandatory temperature check, hand sanitization, and use of disinfecting footbath upon entry to hotel
- Compulsory wearing of face masks and face shields by all staff and guests within the building complex, and wearing of disposable gloves by our front-line staff
- Provision of hand sanitizers at the Front Desk and at our restaurant takeout stations
- Enforcement of physical distancing in elevators and common areas of the hotel
- Heightened sanitation of all public areas and surfaces every 30 minutes
- UV treatment of all suites prior to check-in to ensure the elimination of harmful pathogens on room surfaces
- Increased frequency of disinfection of all high-touch areas in the suites
- Application of door seal to ensure that the suite has not been accessed by anyone after sanitation by housekeeping

We also require guests between ages 18 to 65 years old, and fully vaccinated guests above 65, to present a negative, same-day Antigen Swab Test result prior to check-in.
To ensure the safety of all our guests and employees, we require that the RT-PCR and Antigen Swab Test be conducted at the on-site Aegle Wellness Center.
Guests of The Alpha Suites are encouraged to observe the following health and safety practices during their stay:
- Maintain a safe distance of two meters (six feet) between yourself and others.

- Properly dispose of used face masks and other personal protective equipment in the trash bins.
- Practice proper handwashing, hygiene, and respiratory etiquette.
- Minimize touching of public surfaces.
- Avoid sharing food or belongings with other hotel guests.
- Wet hands with water and apply soap
- Lather your hands by rubbing them together with soap, palm-to-palm and between your fingers
- Lather the backs of your hands
- Rub fingertips of each hand on your opposite palm
- Rub each thumb clasped in your opposite hand
- Rub both palms with your fingers, then rinse thoroughly with running water
- Dry hands with a paper towel
- Use the paper towel when opening the door
- Dispose of the paper towel properly
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing.
- Use the nearest closed trash bin to dispose of the tissue after use.
- Perform hand hygiene (e.g., hand washing with soap and water, alcohol-based hand rub, or antiseptic handwash) before and after eating food, after using the bathroom, blowing your nose, coughing, sneezing, and touching contaminated objects.
- Before putting on a mask, properly clean hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
- Cover your mouth and nose with the mask and make sure there are no gaps between your face and the mask, ensuring it’s snug on the contours of your nose and cheeks, and under your chin.
- Avoid touching the mask while using it; if you do, clean your hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
- Replace the mask with a new one as soon as it is damp, and do not reuse single-use masks.
