PAN Pacific Hotels Group today launched Parkroyal Nay Pyi Taw in the Myanmar capital, marking its second Parkroyal property in the country.
The 180-room hotel is strategically located close to Myanmar International Convention Centre, the official venue of government functions, and opens with 90 rooms available. The remainder is expected to be fully operational by end -2014.
Parkroyal Nay Pyi Taw offers an all-day dining restaurant, spa, gym, swimming pool and a range of meeting facilities (TTG Asia e-Daily, February 11, 2014).
“As an early and successful player in Myanmar’s hotel industry, Pan Pacific Hotels Group is keen to capitalise on business opportunities within the flourishing tourism sector to solidify our position as one of the leading international hotel operators in the country,” says Bernold O Schroeder, CEO, Pan Pacific Hotels Group.
“The opening of Parkroyal Nay Pyi Taw in such a prominent location in the capital will give the brand greater visibility and boost the Group’s Myanmar portfolio.”
Meanwhile, Parkroyal Yangon is also to undergo renovations for refreshed dining spaces, lobby and meeting and entertainment facilities.
In 2013, Pan Pacific entered a joint venture agreement with Myanmar’s Shwe Taung Group to develop the country’s first Pan Pacific hotel (TTG Asia e-Daily, October 30, 2013).
Scheduled to open in 2017, the 348-room Pan Pacific Yangon will be located in the heart of Yangon city centre, opposite the popular Bogyoke Aung San (Scott) Market.
