New Tune Hotel to Open in Kulim

Tune Hotels is adding another property to its portfolio with the opening of its latest hotel in Kulim, Kedah next month.

The hotel will be the 10th Tune Hotel to open in Malaysia, bringing the group's worldwide network to 13 hotels including 2 in Bali and one in London, England.

Located at the Kulim Landmark Central, Tune Hotel Kulim is located between Kulim old town and its new town centre. It is also about 3 km from the Kulim Hi-Tech Park, the first high technology industrial park in Malaysia.

The new Tune Hotel that has 50 rooms comprising 32 doubles, 17 twins and a wheelchair-friendly room is scheduled for opening on 23 September 2011.

Tune Hotels Group CEO Mark Lankester said, “We are spreading the Tune Hotels brand and quality to all over Malaysia and the opening of Tune Hotel Kulim scheduled for next month is a testament to our commitment. We look forward to serving 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 vicinity to Penang, Tune Hotel Kulim also acts as a satellite to our hugely popular Tune Hotel Downtown Penang. Our guests will find Tune Hotel Kulim a great option as the town is very close by to the North-South and East-West Highways.”

Next year, Tune Hotels is planning to add more than 3,500 new rooms to its current portfolio of around 2,000.

The first Tune Hotel in Thailand will be opening in Hat Yai in December, followed by Pattaya in February 2012. Its Philippine debut in Ermita, Manila and the second London hotel at Folgate Street, are both slated for opening in January 2012. More hotels are scheduled for opening next year in Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, the UK, India and Malaysia.
