Hong Kong Disneyland Resort dangles long-stay rental option for corporates

Expanding its corporate offerings along with a larger room inventory with the opening of its third hotel later this month, Hong Kong Disneyland Resort (HKDL) has introduced a long-stay room rental option for corporate clients.

According to HKDL, business solutions and events director, Karen Kwan, the new initiative allows Hong Kong-based companies to rent a room in any of the three hotels for durations of one to 12 months and for any purpose, at special rates.

With the long-stay package, a full-year rental of a Standard Room at Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel or Disney’s Hollywood Hotel will cost the client 50 per cent of the published daily room rate while the half-year option will result in 45 per cent savings. Standard room rates of Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel and Disney’s Hollywood Hotel start from HK$2,700 (US$347) and HK$1,900 respectively.

At the Disney Explorers Lodge (pictured below), savings for a full-year plan is equivalent to 45 per cent savings or 40 per cent for half a year.

In addition, long-stay clients enjoy unique welcome touches such as towel art with the company’s logo, special offers on park admission tickets, F&B privileges and merchandise discounts.

Kwan believes that the option will make a good incentive for client’s staff and stakeholders.

She said: “Giving staff and stakeholders exclusive use of a dedicated room in HKDL’s themed hotels is an aspirational incentive highly effective for staff motivation and relationship building. It also answers the need of companies constantly looking for new ideas for (such purposes).”

One of the first companies to take up this arrangement is from the finance industry. Kwan revealed that the client has expanded the booking to include a room each in Disney’s Hollywood Hotel and the upcoming Disney Explorers Lodge for 2017 following popular demand.

Kwan believes that the new offer may also appeal to frequent business travellers looking for longer term accommodation in Hong Kong.

With the opening of the 750-room Disney Explorers Lodge later this month, HKDL’s room count will total 1,750.
