Shangri-La International Hotel Management and Concorde Arch announced the development of the first Hotel Jen in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Slated to open in 2019, it is the second Hotel Jen project in Malaysia; the first is the Hotel Jen Kota Kinabalu in Borneo, which opened in September 2015.
“The announcement of Hotel Jen Kuala Lumpur reinforces our interest and expansion in Malaysia, in the country’s capital city, where we will now increase the group’s presence with our third hotel and newest brand Hotel Jen,” says Greg Dogan, president and CEO of Shangri-La.
Located in heart of the Kuala Lumpur in a 36-story building, the 200-key Hotel Jen features Jen’s Kitchen, an all-day dining restaurant; the Rooftop Sky Bar with an infinity-edged lap pool; meeting rooms customized for all occasions; and a club lounge with privileges for frequent travelers.
Hotel Jen has 10 properties in Beijing, Brisbane, Hong Kong, Malé, Manila, Penang, Johor, Shenyang, and Singapore. Other Hotel Jen properties are in development in key cities in Asia Pacific, with plans for the brand to expand globally in the future.
