Pan Pacific Hotels Group (PPHG) will open its fourth hotel in South-east Asia with the addition of Gurney Bay Hotel, A Parkroyal Hotel in Malaysia.
The group will take over the operations of the existing hotel and embark on a phased soft renovation from September 1.
Gurney Bay Hotel, A Parkroyal Hotel will be Pan Pacific Hotels Group’s second property in Penang
This announcement follows after the launch of Parkroyal Serviced Suites Jakarta in January, Parkroyal A’Famosa Melaka Resort in February and Pan Pacific Jakarta in June.
With views of the Penang coastline, Penang Hills, and George Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the 368-room hotel is 10 minutes from George Town and is located within the new Gurney Bay lifestyle precinct developed by the Penang State Government as part of its Penang2030 Vision.
The hotel’s facilities include a 220-seater all-day dining restaurant, a lobby lounge and bar, a ballroom which can accommodate up to 550 guests, four meeting rooms, kids’ club, outdoor tennis court, two swimming pools including a kid’s pool, steam and sauna rooms, and a 24/7 gym.
Aligned with the Parkroyal brand’s ethos of All Things Local, Gurney Bay Hotel, A Parkroyal Hotel will offer authentic local experiences within its culturally rich surroundings – from Penang’s renowned street food to the historic charm of its old town.
PPHG CEO Choe Peng Sum commented: “The city-centre Gurney Bay Hotel, A Parkroyal Hotel will complement Parkroyal Penang Resort which is located right at the beach at Batu Ferringhi.
“Both the hotel and resort will benefit from the state’s expansion of Penang International Airport which is set to become the country’s second largest airport. When it is completed in 2028, the new airport will double its current capacity of 6.5 million passengers per year to 12 million passengers per year.”
