Sunway's flagship five-star resort to welcome back Singapore residents as it prepares to embark on its next chapter of luxury in Q2 2022.
Sunway Resort (previously known as Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa), the flagship five-star property at Sunway City Kuala Lumpur, has embarked on a landmark US$60 million transformation that will elevate it to become one of Asia's leading integrated resort destinations. The revitalisation of Sunway Resort, which is the most extensive upgrade in its 25-year history, will embrace the latest design and cutting-edge technology. Once the property reopens this year, it will be completely transformed with 477 smart, environmentally-friendly and intuitively-designed room and suites, an international celebrity chef restaurant, and extensive family, leisure and wellness facilities that form the heart of the guest experience. This once-in-a-generation project has been conceived and created by Nelson Yong, the Chief Principal Designer of Sunway Design. A pioneer of the hospitality sector, Yong has been at the forefront of Sunway's large-scale hotel development and renovation projects since he joined the company in 1987. His bold vision for Sunway Resort was to create contemporary yet glamorous interiors that showcase the "Jewel in the Crown" of Sunway's portfolio and accord each guest a feeling of grace and grandeur, while also being sleek, stylish and seamlessly integrated with the latest automated solutions. Based on the concept of the Silk Road, the hotel transitions between Middle Eastern and Western styles, embracing rich and exotic Moroccan elements. This will be woven throughout the resort, from the remodelled lobby to the public spaces, walkways, elevators, leisure spaces, restaurants and lounges.
