KUALA LUMPUR– Spurred by the success of its earlier properties in Hat Yai and Pattaya, Thailand, the global value hotel chain Tune Hotels today announced the opening of its first city hotel in central Bangkok, scheduled for 1 October 2012. Group CEO of Tune Hotels Mark Lankester regards the opening of Tune Hotel Asoke as a landmark achievement for the company in Thailand in its efforts to become a recognisable, reputable player in one of Asia’s most developed tourism economies.

Tune Hotel Asoke will have 130 rooms comprising double, twin-sharing and disabled-friendly rooms. “We have plans for more hotels in the Land of Smiles and next up will be the resort island of Phuket,” says Tune Hotels Group CEO.
