Mandarin hotel in Surabaya

SURABAYA, East Java (JP): The Hong Kong-based hotel management
chain, Mandarin Oriental, has opened a five-star hotel called the
Majapahit Mandarin Oriental Surabaya.

The property, first known as Hotel Majapahit, was constructed
in 1910. The hotel was reopened by East Java Governor Basofi
Soedirman on Saturday after undergoing a US$35-million
refurbishment program over the last two years.

The 150-room hotel, now 75 percent owned by PT Sekar Group and
25 percent by Mandarin, is located on Jl. Tunjungan in the center
of the city.

Majapahit Mandarin Oriental Surabaya is the second hotel
managed by Mandarin in Indonesia after the Mandarin Oriental
Jakarta. The group also manages other hotels in Bangkok, Hong
Kong, Macau, Manila, San Francisco and Singapore. (15/icn)
