KUALA LUMPUR: Global hospitality technology company OYO has announced the debut of its premium hotel brand, SUNDAY Hotel, in Malaysia. The simultaneous openings of SUNDAY Hotel in Kuala Lumpur and Langkawi mark the beginning of the brand’s footprint in the country, with ten additional properties scheduled for launch by the end of 2025.
Strategically positioned in key tourist locations, the Kuala Lumpur property is situated in close proximity to the iconic Petronas Twin Towers. Meanwhile, the Langkawi hotel is located approximately 10 kilometres from Langkawi International Airport and within a five-minute walk of the popular Cenang Beach.
“We have been inspired by the global acclaim of SUNDAY Hotels and have worked diligently over the past year to identify properties that align with our vision of delivering memorable stays,” said Raymond Chen, Country Business and Operations Head for OYO Malaysia.
The upcoming Malaysian properties will be located in high-demand tourist hubs including Johor Bahru, Penang Island, Kuantan, and Kota Kinabalu. This expansion aligns with OYO’s broader strategic vision to scale its premium hospitality portfolio internationally.
SUNDAY Hotels are supported by a dedicated team of highly trained hospitality professionals, offering round-the-clock personalised service. Each property is equipped with modern amenities, including high-speed Wi-Fi, flatscreen televisions, in-room dining facilities, mini-bars, and premium toiletries.
The expansion into Malaysia forms part of OYO’s continued global rollout of the SUNDAY Hotel brand, which was first launched in May 2023 in Jaipur, India, through a joint venture between SoftBank and Oravel Stays. Since then, the brand has extended its presence to Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, and Dubai. India currently operates three SUNDAY Hotels, with a target to increase this number to 25 by March 2025.
