Movenpick to open first hotel in Indonesia
01 February 2012
Movenpick Hotels & Resorts is to open its first hotel in Indonesia overlooking the bay of Jimbaran in the south of Bali.
The Movenpick Resort & Spa Jimbaran is scheduled to open in 2014 and will boast 270 rooms including 70 suites. In addition, the resort will feature 70 branded residences.
“Bali is a holidaymaker’s paradise and the exclusive beach location of this resort with its unrestricted views of the bay is certain to be hugely popular,” said Andreas Mattmuller, chief operating officer for Movenpick Hotels & Resorts in the Middle East and Asia. “As the company’s first hotel in Indonesia this is a perfect place to start.”
“We are delighted Movenpick Hotels & Resorts will be managing this outstanding property,” said Soegianto Nagaria, president director of PT Hotelindo Permata Jimbaran, the resort’s owning company. “We are confident that the combination of warm Swiss hospitality and this idyllic setting will be a huge success.”
The Jimbaran resort is one of nine new hotels set to be opened by Movenpick Hotels & Resorts across Asia by 2014. Movenpick Hotels & Resorts currently operates two hotels in Thailand, two in Vietnam and one each in India, Philippines and Singapore.
