New Tunes for Bali
KUALA LUMPUR – Tune Hotels.com will open two hotels in Bali in November, in what will be the company’s first hotels outside Malaysia, said chief executive officer Mark Lankester.
Tune Hotels.com is also eyeing hotel markets in Thailand, China and India.
The two Bali hotels, a 170-room hotel in Legian Bali and a 139-room hotel in Kuta Bali, are now under construction, according to Lankester.
Tune Hotels.com is also scheduled to open a 258-room hotel in downtown Penang and a 222-room hotel at the low cost carrier terminal (LCCT) in KL International Airport in April.
Lankester said Tune Hotels.com had also planned for two hotels in Johor, one in Kuantan, and more hotels in other Sarawak towns.
Tune Hotels.com currently operates a 173-room hotel in Kuala Lumpur and a 165-room hotel in Kota Kinabalu.
“As a Malaysian brand, we will continue to roll out more hotels to serve Malaysians first,’’ Lankester told reporters at the launch of the group’s first hotel franchise, the Tune Hotels.com-Waterfront Kuching.
Meanwhile, Tune Hotels.com is offering promotional rates, from five cents per night for stays between November this year and January 2010, and from RM5 per night for stays between March and October this year.
