Lumayan Indah Sdn Bhd and Banyan Tree have signed an agreement to open a hotel-plus-residence property.

The Banyan Tree Signatures Pavilion Kuala Lumpur is scheduled to open before the end of 2016, and will be located in a prime area in the Golden Triangle of Kuala Lumpur.

Ho Kwon Ping, executive chairman, Banyan Tree Holdings, said: “Residents, city dwellers and guests can look forward to taking respite from the fast pace of life with luxury spa treatments from the Banyan Tree Spa – again a first in Malaysia.

“At Banyan Tree Signatures Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, both residents and guests will enjoy a holistic lifestyle that encompasses dining, shopping and relaxation delivered with the signature Banyan Tree service standards.”

The first Banyan Tree Signatures in Kuala Lumpur will be located in the vibrant shopping hub of Bukit Bintang, right in the heart of the city.

Standing 55 storeys tall, the freehold building will exceed 240 metres in height and will have the honour of being the tallest residential building in Kuala Lumpur.

The property will house the Banyan Tree Residences and Banyan Tree Signatures Hotel.

It is complemented by a spa, heated pool, comprehensive amenities, as well as a rooftop gourmet restaurant and sky bar with sweeping panoramic views from the 55th floor.

Banyan Tree Residences come partially furnished with top end European imported kitchens, wardrobes, electrical appliances, sanitary ware and fittings.

Exclusively for the residences, facilities include a 58 metre infinity pool, meeting rooms, gymnasium and dance studio, set amidst water features and green lawns.

Banyan Tree is considered Asia’s Leading Resort Brand by the prestigious World Travel Awards.
