Business and corporate travellers to Malaysia’s ICT capital of Cyberjaya now have a new accommodation option with the latest offering from international hotel group Tune Hotels.

Located right at the centre of the central business district (CBD), the 162-room Tune Hotel DPulze Cyberjaya is part of the DPulze Cyberjaya integrated development that comprises hotels, apartments and a shopping centre.

Group CEO of Tune Hotels, Mark Lankester said: “With its high concentration of multinational establishments, Cyberjaya is undoubtedly one of Malaysia’s most international satellite towns to Kuala Lumpur, apart from being one of the most technologically advanced and best planned. With Tune Hotel DPulze Cyberjaya, we look forward to providing international-class value for money accommodation to not only business but also leisure travellers to Cyberjaya. Corporate and business enquiries have been very healthy indeed!”

The DPulze Cyberjaya Shopping Centre, when opened next month, will feature most of the major retailers and brands, restaurants, a supermarket, a cineplex and a bowling alley.

In recognition of the needs of multinational companies and their executives, he said, the Tune Hotel DPulze Cyberjaya benefits from having two floors of the Regus Business Centres, providing serviced offices, conference and meeting rooms within the property.

“Sitting directly above the DPulze Shopping Centre, the hotel is perfectly placed with easy access to all the shopping and entertainment facilities within. The hotel would also be an ideal accommodation option for visitors to the federal administrative centre of Putrajaya nearby and the surrounding areas,” added Lankester.

Dubbed as Malaysia’s Silicon Valley, Cyberjaya that was launched in 1997 was designed as a town with a science park. Spanning an area of about 7,000 acres, Cyberjaya is the nucleus of the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC), now known as MSC Malaysia. A number of international companies have established their operations to Cyberjaya including Dell, HP, DHL, Satyam, HSBC, Ericsson, Motorola, OCBC, BMW, IBM, Shell IT and Vivanova Systems, among others. Currently, over 500 MSC Status companies have located their operations in Cyberjaya, making the township a rapidly growing area.

Tune Hotels is part of Tune Group, a lifestyle business conglomerate co-founded by Tan Sri Tony Fernandes and Datuk Kamarudin Meranun, who are the Group CEO and Executive Chairman respectively of Asia’s largest low cost carrier AirAsia. There are 45 Tune Hotels available for booking across Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, England, Scotland, Australia, India and Japan.
