Hyatt Place JBCC is strategically located at Quayside JBCC – a vibrant lifestyle, retail, and entertainment hub, nestled in the heart of Johor Bahru.
This collaboration marks a significant occasion for both parties. It brings Hyatt Place’s renowned select service tailored for those working on-the-go or travelling with families, to Quayside JBCC, while solidifying Bangsar Heights Pavilion’s position as a leader in innovative development projects.
BHP is a subsidiary of the Bangsar Heights Group, which boasts a portfolio of over 50 completed and sold developments, with a gross development value exceeding RM5 billion.
CEO Aaron Yap believes this partnership will add value to the stakeholders of both companies, locally and internationally.
“Hyatt Place is a globally recognised brand known for its modern amenities, warm hospitality, and commitment to guest satisfaction, which aligns with our commitment to providing hassle-free experiences for all our customers and residents.
“We believe their expertise will be instrumental in positioning Quayside JBCC as a premier destination in Johor Bahru,” Yap said during the signing ceremony between the two companies.
He added that Quayside JBCC will serve as a hub for work, living, and leisure, as well as an ecosystem for growth, connections, and prosperity.
“Quayside JBCC is designed to emphasise the rich heritage of the surrounding area and revitalise the days of old with modern influences. It goes beyond the tangible buildings; it is the confluence of history and what the future holds for its residents – present and future,” he said.
Quayside JBCC is a freehold mixed development with an expected gross development value of RM600 million. Situated close to the Johor Bahru Customs, Immigration, and Quarantine centre, it boasts 482 serviced suites managed by a prestigious branded operator, along with 24 commercial retail units, a 200-room hotel, a rooftop sky bar offering fine dining, and 292 parking spots.
Hyatt Hotels Corporation vice president Bastien Touzeau stated that the collaboration reflects the exciting growth of the Hyatt Place brand in Southeast Asia.
“This underscores Hyatt’s position as the leading global hospitality brand in upscale accommodation for business and leisure travellers worldwide. We are thrilled to be working with BHP to introduce Hyatt Place JBCC in Malaysia.
“With BHP’s legacy of over 30 years of experience in developing residential, commercial, and industrial properties in the country, we are proud to give our guests a place they can call their own, defined by a comfortable and convenient stay during their travel,” he said.
