Four Points by Sheraton Kuching is set to be the first international hotel to open in Kuching, Malaysia, in almost twenty years.
The announcement by Starwood also indicates the first Four Points by Sheraton to be constructed in South East Asia.
The 421 room property is owned by Global Ulpine, and located mere minutes from Kuching International Airport.
The property is only fifteen minutes south of the city centre, and is located in close proximity to Sarawak Cultural Village, Damai Beach and orangutans of Borneo in the Semenggoh Wildlife Centre.
“Four Points by Sheraton is delighted to welcome guests to Kuching, one of Malaysia’s most colorful and dynamic cities,” said Sandy Swider, Vice President, Four Points by Sheraton.
“Four Points by Sheraton gives guests just what they need – comfortable rooms, an inviting social atmosphere and extras to help them feel fulfilled at the end of the day.”
The property boasts high ceilings and tall glass windows, a spacious lobby and contemporary styling.
Each room will provide the comfort of a signature Four Points by Sheraton Comfort Bed, a workspace and ergonomic desk chair, a 32” plasma television and a laptop sized safe.
“We’re extremely excited to introduce the Four Points by Sheraton brand to Malaysia,” said Mal McArdle, General Manager of Four Points by Sheraton Kuching. “We offer guests approachable and straightforward hospitality – a style that will work really well for the Kuching market."
The property will also be host to conferences and meetings, with extensive facilities and a Rainforest Ballroom, which can accommodate up to 1,300 people for a sit-down banquet.
Four Points by Sheraton Kuching also has a host of cuisine options, with three restaurants and lounges on the lobby level, buffets with live cooking stations and a cafe-deli.
Developed and owned by Global Upline Sdn. Bhd., Four Points by Sheraton Kuching combines modern architectural design with practical use of space. The hotel is opening just 11 months following the start of construction.
“The simple functionality of our design allows us to introduce the Four Points’ honest, uncomplicated hospitality to a market that’s hungry for a new international hospitality brand,” said Bobby Ting, Assistant Managing Director of Global Upline.
“This property is testament to our ability to deliver turnkey projects to the market in an accelerated timeframe.”
After all, the construction of the Global Upline owned hotel was completed within eleven months.
The fitness centre offered by Four Points by Sheraton Kuching has modern Technogym equipment, and is complemented by an outdoor swimming pool and pool bar, spa, steam room and sauna.
As an added service to guests, Four Points by Sheraton Kuching will be the first hotel in the city to offer guests complimentary shuttle transfers between the hotel and the airport as well as to and from the city’s commercial centre.
