KUALA LUMPUR: PNB Darby Park Executive Suites (pix) received The Hospitality Asia Platinum Award for Best Service Residence 2007/2008. Organised every two years, the event was attended by representatives from the top five- and four-star hotels and resorts throughout Malaysia.
The award marked another achievement for PNB Darby Park, making it the sixth award they
have received to date.
“This prestigious award is a dream come true for all of us. Being a stand-alone property, competing against international brands that are popular within the industry is a real challenge for us”, said PNB Darby Park’s general manager Yusof Ramli.
He stated that the award is a symbol of sheer hard work by all employees in providing the best of product and services to guests. Targeted at business travelers, Yusof said PNB Darby Park’s positioning as a premier service dapartment in the heart of the city has stirred interest in other developers to follow suit.
“The sprouting of service apartments on Jalan Binjai alone would be stiff competition for PNB Darby Park.
However, some of these developments are for sale, and do not operate like a hotel/serviced apartment”, he said. Yusof added that the government’s call to conduct star ratings for both service apartments and hotels would soon help make a clear distinction between the two.
PNB Darby Park is a 338-unit serviced apartment located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle.
Opened in June 2000, PNB Darby Park Executive Suites is owned by Permodalan Nasional Bhd and managed by Sime Properties International Private Ltd. It is a joint venture between Sime UEP Properties Bhd and Sime Singapore Ltd.
In August 2007, PNB Darby Park was named “Best Accommodation Provider 2007” in the Libur/ Traverama Tourism Award 2007.
In 2006, PNB Darby Park received ISO 9001:2000 certification from Sirim QAS International Sdn Bhd.
