Raffles Hotels & Resorts celebrated two momentous events on 28 May in Kuala Lumpur: the signing ceremony for Raffles Kuala Lumpur and official opening of Café Stelle by Raffles. Raffles Kuala Lumpur, featuring 200 stunning rooms and suites, is slated to open in 2011 and will be located in the Central Business District within Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s world-class and award-winning lifestyle destination.
The signing ceremony for Raffles Kuala Lumpur between Harmoni Perkasa Sdn Bhd and Raffles Hotels & Resorts was witnessed by Yang Berhormat Dato’ Sri Dr. Ng Yen Yen, Minister of Tourism Malaysia who was also there to officiate the opening of the elegant Café Stelle by Raffles at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.
The opening of Café Stelle was inaugurated by a ribbon–cutting ceremony and featured a stunning showcase from luxury jeweller and watchmaker Chopard. Models, draped in Chopard's latest collection, sashayed down the 40-meter runway, a unique design feature of the café which adds to its stylish environs ideally created for dining and entertaining.
Café Stelle is a contemporary, metropolitan-chic space which offers an elegant oasis nestled in the Couture Pavilion precinct, amongst flagship stores of international luxury brands such as Hermés, Bulgari, Mikimoto, Prada and Yves Saint Laurent. Natural wood and metallic finishes, warm hues and sleek furnishings create a sophisticated yet soothing ambience, and patrons have the option of dining on a formal table setting or on more casual ottomans and lounges. This is the ideal venue to recharge and rejuvenate at any time of the day and is set to enhance Pavilion Kuala Lumpur’s reputation as the most desirable destination for fashionistas.
Tan Sri Datuk Seri Zainol bin Mahmood, Chairman of Harmoni Perkasa Sdn Bhd, said, “It is a pleasure to be working with Raffles Hotels & Resorts. Throughout the world, the name Raffles is associated with exceptional standards of service, hospitality and cuisine. We look forward to partnering them in bringing a luxurious lifestyle experience to Kuala Lumpur.”
