Legoland Hotel - Lobby

NUSAJAYA, 29th November 2013 – Asia’s first LEGOLAND® Hotel opened its doors today and welcomed guests from across the region. The opening of the LEGOLAND® Hotel is ahead of schedule and offers 249 uniquely themed bedrooms. The Hotel opening also marks the complete transformation of LEGOLAND into a Resort.

The LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort brings together a Theme Park, Water Park and Hotel in one LEGO® themed location with more than 70 hands-on rides, slides, shows and attractions.

“We are delighted to welcome our first guests to the LEGOLAND Hotel. The opening of the Hotel transforms LEGOLAND from a tourist attraction to a unique holiday destination. With the Resort fully opened, families can stay longer and enjoy all the rides, slides, shows and attractions that LEGOLAND has to offer,” said Siegfried Boerst, General Manager of LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort.

The opening is also significant for the highly developing Iskandar region as LEGOLAND has been a key tourism driver ever since the Theme Park opened to public last year.

The LEGOLAND Hotel turns a day the family will always remember into a stay they will never forget. Designed to bring children’s imaginations to life, it boasts brightly coloured LEGO features throughout bedrooms, play areas and restaurants.

An amazing display containing 12,528 LEGO Minifigures welcomes guests as they check-in and the Hotel is full of interactive child-friendly features – from quirky themed elevators, exploding toy boxes, treasure trails, dragons and much more.

Children can play in a 32-foot high pirate shipwreck with a LEGO river, start an adventure by exploring the castle guarded by a LEGO ogre or dance their way up to the bedrooms in the character themed ‘disco’ elevators. There’s also a dedicated play area with more than 1,000 LEGO bricks.

From the spectacular entrance right through to Bricks Family Restaurant, Skyline Bar and Patio Lounge, guests find fun LEGO elements everywhere they look. A true child’s paradise, there are more than five million LEGO bricks to be found throughout the Hotel.

All the bedrooms include a king-size bed for parents, plus a separate sleeping area for up to three children, complete with a bunk bed, pull-out trundle bed and entertainment unit. The themed rooms give guests the choice of playing Pirate, commanding a Kingdom or embarking on an Adventure. To add to the excitement, each room has a treasure chest that children can unlock once
they complete finding clues throughout their room.

There are many entertainment options in the Hotel; from the swimming pool to the interactive LEGO games and activities. Families can enjoy either a buffet style concept restaurant or dine in an à la carte environment at the Bricks Family Restaurant and Gourmet Bricks respectively.
