TUNE HOTELS TO ADD 3,500 ROOMS TO CURRENT PORTFOLIO
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 22 (Bernama) -- Tune Hotels, the pioneering value hotel chain under the Tune Group, will aggressively open new hotels next year, adding more than 3,500 new rooms to the current portfolio of around 2,000.
Tune Hotels Group chief executive officer Mark Lankester said Tune Hotels has grown its global portfolio to 13 hotels in just four years and roomed more than two million guests.
"Over this period, customers have consistently rated the hotel highly and provided positive feedback.
"The Tune Hotels brand and quality is now spreading to all over Malaysia and the opening of Tune Hotel Kulim scheduled for next month, is a testament to the commitment," he said in a statement, on Monday.
The Tune Hotel in northern town of Kulim is the 10th for the group.
The newest opening will bring its worldwide network to 13 hotels including two in Bali, Indonesia and one in London, England.
On the newest opening, Lankester said the group is looking forward to serve the needs of particularly business travelers to the third largest town in Kedah, that is home to one of Asia’s top business parks, the Kulim Hi-Tech Park.
"With its proximity to Penang, Tune Hotel Kulim also acts as a satellite to our hugely popular Tune Hotel Downtown Penang," he added.
Tune Group is a group of entertainment and leisure companies, founded by Malaysian entrepreneurs Tony Fernandes and Kamarudin Meranun. The group's brands includes low-cost airline Air Asia and Formula One team Lotus Racing.
