[title]Talk about a grand entrance; this is what you’ll see as you enter the lobby – a 32-foot high pirate shipwreck with a LEGO river and a castle guarded by a LEGO ogre. This 249-room LEGOLAND hotel is Asia’s first, located in the Legoland Malaysia Resort, where you’ll also find the theme park and the water park. It’s pretty much like a large scale children’s playground with many interactive child-friendly features – from disco elevators to fun toy boxes, treasure trails and a dedicated play area with more than 1,000 LEGO bricks.
This hotel is designed for families with children between the ages of two and 12 years old. There are three themed rooms to choose from, based on the three LEGO lines – Pirate, Kingdom or Adventure, and each can accommodate two adults and three children. All rooms include a king-size bed and a separate area for the kids, which features a bunk bed, pull-out trundle bed and entertainment unit. For play, the kids can find clues throughout the room to unlock the treasure chest available in their room.
The hotel sports a swimming pool and interactive LEGO games and activities. Dining won’t be an issue as there is the buffet style eatery Bricks Family Restaurant and a la carte dining at Gourmet Bricks. To complete your stay, hotel guests can purchase the two-day combo ticket for the price of a one day combo ticket, which gives you access to both the theme park and water park with unrestricted movement between the two.
