Tatami Spa wins award

Tucked away in the lush tropical forest of Berjaya Hills is the Japanese garden-inspired Tatami Spa, which has become a popular destination for visitors, most notably VIPs, who want to get away from the hustle and bustle in the city and unwind in this beautiful setting.

It is no wonder then, that at the recent 6th Hospitality Asia Platinum Awards (HAPA) 2007-2008, Tatami Spa won the Resort Spa of the Year award.

The HAPA awards is a prestigious award series that recognizes and pays tribute to exceptional professionals and establishments in the hospitality industry.

The awards traditionally honour only one winner per category. However, in order to further recognize the level of excellent performance, HAPA has also ranked the top four finalists for each category.

Berjaya Hills attained the finalist award for Family Resort of the Year while Berjaya Hotels & Resorts corporate office director of marketing communications Thang Han-Ni earned the finalist award for Marketing Communications Personality of the Year.

Berjaya Hotels & Resorts acting head Foo Toon Kee said: "Winning these three awards is the culmination of Berjaya Hotels & Resorts' year-long hard work and dedication coming to fruition.

"As one of the key players in this country's hospitality industry, we take pride in providing a wholesome and memorable experience to each guest. Hence, the award speaks volume of the attention to detail put in by each team member."

In appreciation of this vote of confidence, Berjaya Hills Tatami Spa is offering a special pampering treat - the Omotenashi Package - which includes a two-day-one-night stay (with dinner and breakfast) at Ume Tatami Suite plus a two-hour massage at Tatami Spa at RM588 per person.
