KUALA LUMPUR (AFP) - Asia's first Legoland Hotel is to open in Malaysia in 2014 next to a theme park dedicated to the popular children's building bricks, the developers said on Tuesday.
Groundwork for the hotel in southern Johor state - the world's fourth Legoland hotel - began last month, developer Merlin Entertainments Groups and LL Themed Hotel said in a statement.
The hotel will be constructed out of more conventional building materials and will be built next to the Legoland theme park, which is due to open at the end of this year. The developers said they were hoping to attract local and international travellers.
'It will bring Lego to life with imaginative theming and a host of child-friendly features from low counters in the restaurant to treasure chests full of Lego in the bedrooms,' the statement said.
