Hotel Sogo : The Past, the Present, and the Future

A Glimpse of History

Hotel Sogo was founded in 1992 by two individuals - one was a hotel professional with over 20 years of experience in a leading motel chain, while the other was a commercial developer and an "AAA" licensed contractor. They both decided to come together to satisfy the public's growing clamor for a better and more convenient low-cost lodging.

In February 1993, the first Hotel Sogo was opened near Monumento LRT Station with the primary commitment of providing guests with topnotch lodging facilities and services which anchor on the following values : Cleanliness, Innovation, Efficiency, Courtesy, Discipline, and Teamwork.


In 1998, Hotel Sogo started their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Program. Their first beneficiaries were the victims of floods and typhoons. Since then, the management decided that helping people in need is an important part as the business continues to grow. Hotel Sogo's CSR Program is called "Sogo Cares."

Sogo Cares extends its service to the community through the Doctor on Wheels (DOW) Program that focuses on providing free medical consultations, laboratory, examinations and medications to under-served communities throughout the Philippines.

In 2008, they developed the tagline " So Clean...So Good" indicating a much-improved service for a good and satisfying hotel experience.
