The Majestic Hotel Kuala Lumpur has seen
healthy interest from event planners since its opening last December. Built in 1932 as Majestic Hotel and shut down
in 1983, the iconic building celebrated a grand reopening last December
following a refurbishment by YTL Hotels.
According to the luxury property’s director
of sales & marketing, Anna Olsson, The Majestic Hotel Kuala Lumpur has been
the venue of choice for several events such as F1 Gala Dinner 2013, The
BrandLaureate Awards 2013 and other functions organised by the private banking
sector and high-end brands. It has also hosted local wedding dinners with 800
to 1,200 people.
Olsson noted that the bulk of business for
residential meetings had come from Singapore and Hong Kong, with China showing
growing interest, while Australia and New Zealand produced incentive bookings. Meetings and incentives from the Middle East
are also rising.
The
property will work closely with The Leading Hotels of the World – it is the
only hotel in the Malaysian capital to be included in the collection of
properties under the luxury hospitality consortium – to attract more corporate
interest and attend tradeshows such as IMEX to build further awareness of the
hotel.
