KEMPINSKI Hotels will operate and service three components within Kuala Lumpur’s large-scale luxury development, 8 Conlay, located in the heart of the city’s Golden Triangle.
The European hotel group had signed an agreement with KSK Group, via property development arm KSK Land, for the 260-key Kempinski hotel and the 403-unit Kempinski Residences.
Both Kempinski brand properties will anchor the development of 8 Conlay’s hotel tower, together with up to 1,092 units of 8 Conlay Residences, also serviced by Kempinski.
The 8 Conlay development is a few minutes’ walk from Bukit Bintang shopping district and the Pavilion Kuala Lumpur mall, as well as a 50-minute drive to/from Kuala Lumpur International Airport. The groundbreaking for 8 Conlay is scheduled to take place early next year and is expected to be completed by 2020.
Alejandro Bernabé, CEO of Kempinski Hotels, said in a release: “This unique project marks Kempinski’s entry into the important Malaysian market and underlines our commitment to expansion in South-east Asia.”
The hotel and residences will benefit from facilities such as Kempinski The Spa, a wellness concept which offers herbal treatments inspired by the seasons; a gym; swimming pool; and a variety of restaurants and bars.
