Going to the heart of Legoland

The Kingdom room is one of 249 themed bedrooms.

NUSAJAYA: The Legoland Hotel, which is part of the Legoland Malaysia Resort, is open for reservations. The hotel, which opens later this month, is also having a special pre-opening promotion for guests. The hotel will welcome its first guests on Nov 29, just in-time for the school holidays.

The opening of the hotel will complete the transformation of Legoland into a resort which brings together the theme park, water park and hotel in one location with more than 70 rides, slides, shows and other attractions.

"This is a milestone for Legoland Malaysia Resort and we are very excited about welcoming the first guests to the hotel for the school holidays as we are ahead of schedule. Guests will be able to enjoy the Legoland experience for a longer period," said Legoland Malaysia general manager Siegfried Boerst.

The family package includes breakfasts and two-day combo tickets for two adults and two children. Combo tickets provide access to the theme park and the water park, which was opened last month, and allow guests to move freely between the two.

Lego features are found throughout the hotel which offers 249 themed bedrooms. Guests have the choice of playing pirate, commanding a kingdom or embarking on an adventure.

All rooms include a king-sized bed for the grown-ups, and a separate semi-private sleeping area for up to three children, complete with a bunk bed, pull-out trundle bed and entertainment unit.

Guests will also find an impressive display of 12,528 Lego mini figures behind the check-in desk.

The Legoland Hotel is at the heart of the Legoland Malaysia Resort. Other hotel facilities include a children's play area which is brimming with interactive Lego games and activities with over 100,000 Lego bricks, swimming and wading salt water pools that can be enjoyed by the whole family and 154 parking bays for hotel guests.

The hotel also features the Skyline Bar, a Lego retail outlet, the Courtyard Gardens, a business centre, prayer rooms and disabled-friendly guest rooms.
