The first Oakwood branded hotel is coming to Kuala Lumpur after the company agreed a deal with Plenitude Berhad to manage the 252-key property.
 
It is due to open its doors during the second quarter of this year in the Jalan Ampang district of the Malaysian capital.
 
"We are proud to establish our footprint in Malaysia with the opening of the first Oakwood-branded property in Kuala Lumpur," said Dean Schreiber, MD of Oakwood Asia Pacific Ltd. 
 
"Kuala Lumpur is an important destination for us, especially with the Malaysian capital emerging as one of Southeast Asia’s most alluring metropoles. We have seen a rising demand for a dual hotel and residence property in the city and know that Oakwood Hotel & Residence Kuala Lumpur will be an environment in which guests will feel right at home." 
    
Oakwood Hotel & Residence Kuala Lumpur will feature events and meeting space, a swimming pool, restaurant and fitness centre.
 
"Plenitude has invested RM50 million for the renovation and upgrading of Oakwood Hotel & Residence Kuala Lumpur and the refreshed development will meet the varied needs of leisure and business travellers alike," Elsie Chua, chair of Plenitude Berhad.
