Ninth Tune Hotel in Malaysia opens

KOTA BARU: Barely three years after the inception of Tune Hotels, a total of one million people have stayed in its 12 hotels locally and abroad, confirming that it is one of the fastest-growing hotel chains in the region.

Tune Hotels chief executive officer Mark Lankaster said the limited service model offers value for money.

“We always listen to our guests and strive to meet their needs and expectations.

“Recently, we removed the RM10.90 administration fee across our entire chain.

“Guests now only pay for the room,” Lankaster told reporters after the soft launch of the 12th Tune Hotel here on Sunday.

He added Tune Hotels enjoy a 95% occupancy rate on any given day.

The opening of the Kota Baru hotel brings Tune Hotel properties in Malaysia to nine, the last hotel was opened in Bintulu on Jan 3.

Three other Tune properties are located in Kuta and Legian in Bali and one in London.

Lankaster revealed that by the end of next year, a total of six hotels woud be built.

“The Kota Baru hotel completes our framework to cover the northern, southern, central, eastern and western regions of the country and from next year we would be concentrating on building hotels beyond Malaysian shores,” he said.
