Situated on a 1.9 ha site, the JW Marriott Hotel Johor Bahru is expected to offer 410 rooms and suites. The hotel will embody the brand’s emphasis on holistic well-being, intuitive service, and timeless design. Guest rooms will feature contemporary interiors, elevated amenities and panoramic views.
“This signing represents a strategic expansion of the brand in Malaysia, reinforcing our commitment to bringing transformative luxury experiences to destinations of growing business and leisure demand. Johor Bahru’s strong connectivity and rising profile as a cross-border hub make it a natural fit for JW Marriott’s thoughtful and inspired brand positioning,” said Rajeev Menon, president, Asia-Pacific excluding China, of Marriott International.
Planned facilities include an executive lounge, a tennis court, three pickleball courts, an outdoor resort-style swimming pool, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, a Kids’ Club, and a spa with five treatment rooms and hydrothermal amenities.
Dining options will comprise an all-day dining restaurant, a bakery and coffee kiosk, a Chinese restaurant, a smokehouse and a lobby lounge. The hotel will also introduce JW Marriott’s signature JW Garden, a peaceful green space reflecting the brand’s focus on mindful living and sustainability.
The hotel’s social and event facilities will span 2,517 sq m, featuring a 900-sq-m grand ballroom, a 600-sq-m junior ballroom and 16 versatile meeting rooms.
