GEORGE TOWN: With the vaccination programme picking up speed and the mood lightening, Penang hotels are seeing a spike in occupancy and events.
Cooped-up Penangites have been heading back to the beach for staycations while bookings for weddings are also on the rise.
Angsana Teluk Bahang, the newest kid on the block on the island’s northern tip, has seen a positive trend of increased weekend bookings over the last two weeks.
“On average, business has picked up especially for weekend bookings since the reopening of our resort on March 5 when the movement control order was lifted. “This weekend will see the highest bookings over the last few weekends, ” said hotel marketing communications manager Karen Chee.
