Tune Hotels, which currently has 29 hotels in operations across six countries, has taken its newly rebranded hotel room design to the public via a caravan roadshow that would cover at least 32 destinations across major cities in the Peninsula this school holiday.

The specially-designed caravan truck carrying Tune Hotels’ room replica that bears its new brand standard, kicked off its journey from Petaling Jaya on 24 May 2013 heading up north with stops at various spots in Ipoh, Penang and Alor Setar.

Tune Hotels’ Room on Wheels then made stops in the Klang Valley before proceeding to Kuantan, Johor Bahru, Melaka, LCCT Sepang, Cyberjaya and Putrajaya throughout the two-week school holidays. It will also be making stops at popular rest and relaxation (R&R) areas along the highways.
“Tune Hotels’ Room on Wheels is another of our innovative effort to bring the unique concept of our hotel to the public. We have adopted a vigorously-rebranded room design for our newer hotels including the recently refurbished Tune Hotel Downtown KL and we would like to invite everyone to experience our quality and comfort,” said Mark Lankester, Group CEO of Tune Hotels.
Visitors stand a chance to win exclusive Tune Hotels merchandise including T-shirts, caps, key rings and car stickers.
“We would like to invite more and more people to experience the Tune Hotels hospitality as we pursue a conscious policy of being environmental-friendly by optimising use of available resources, reduction of waste and by introducing processes that save on energy consumption. We are very pleased that our guests have endorsed our operations that encourage lifestyles that protect the environment,” added Mark.
Tune Hotels currently has 11 hotels in operation in Malaysia, five in the UK, four each in Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines with the latest addition being Tune Hotel Ahmedabad that has just opened this month in Gujarat, India. Tune Hotels is set to open properties in Japan and Australia this year while future projects are also coming up in the Middle East, Europe and Africa.
Providing international standard, high quality accommodation by focusing on key essentials but minus the generally underutilised facilities commonly found in other hotels such as swimming pools, business centres and gymnasiums, Tune Hotels keeps its operating costs low and savings are passed on to guests in the form of super low rates.
Tune Hotels has received almost five million guests since the opening of its first hotel in Downtown Kuala Lumpur in 2007.
Tune Hotels is part of Tune Group, a lifestyle business conglomerate co-founded by Tan Sri Tony Fernandes and Dato’ Kamarudin Meranun, who are the Group Chief Executive Officer and Deputy Group Chief Executive Officer respectively of Asia’s largest low cost carrier AirAsia.
