  • What makes The Picasso different from other Salcedo Village hotels?

    The Picasso was established in 2009 with a Cubism-inspired architectural identity and a commitment to contemporary Filipino art programming through Altro Mondo Gallery. Unlike global chain competitors in the neighborhood, The Picasso has a specific cultural founding story, a named Spanish-Mediterranean dining concept in Pablo Bistro, and a boutique scale of 143 units — all factors that distinguish it from interchangeable serviced apartment brands operating in the same district.
