Lanson Place, synonymous with a refined residential lifestyle, is proudly celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, confirming its status as a global leader in the extended-stay sector.

Starting from its initial property in Kuala Lumpur, Lanson Place has blossomed into a hospitality innovator with nine locations known for their signature residential-style living spaces, attentive service, and personalized guest experiences.

Continuously expanding to meet the evolving demands of today’s globally mobile travellers, Lanson Place demonstrates a nuanced understanding of work-life rhythms and local connections, catering to the growing need for longer stays.

A Personal Experience

Since its launch with Kondominium No. 8 in Kuala Lumpur in 1995, Lanson Place has transformed long-stay hospitality into a refined “home away from home” experience, showcasing the brand’s adaptability to rapidly evolving urban landscapes:

• 1995: Debut property launches in Kuala Lumpur.
• 1998: Expansion into Singapore.
• 2000: Introduction of The WaterFront in Hong Kong.
• 2005: Entry into Mainland China with Jinlin Tiandi, Shanghai.
• 2010: Debut of third-party management with Jin Qiao Serviced Residences.
• 2019: Brand revamp with a refined identity.
• 2024: Reopening of flagship Lanson Place Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, after a major renovation.

Each achievement marks a significant evolution, reinforcing Lanson Place’s commitment to sophisticated, design-oriented hospitality while continuously enhancing the long-stay experience.

Evolving with Global Travellers

Modern travellers desire more than short-term accommodations; they seek immersion in local cultures, comfort, and a sense of community. Through expertly designed spaces and a dedication to service, Lanson Place creates personal sanctuaries within environments exuding elegance and hospitality.

As stated by CEO Michael Hobson: “After three decades, Lanson Place continues to earn critical acclaim by anticipating how guests want to live, work, and relax away from home. We design residential spaces that are personal and practical, balancing style and service while reflecting the essence of each destination. ‘Your Place. Lanson Place.’ is a promise we honor, one guest at a time.”

Time for Regional Growth

Lanson Place is focused on further growth, with plans for four new developments in 2024, extending its unique combination of style and comfort to discerning guests in leading economic and cultural centers:

• Grand reopening of Lanson Place Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, with a hybrid hospitality model.
• New entries in Manila (Lanson Place Mall of Asia) and Melbourne (Parliament Gardens).
• Debuting in the Greater Bay Area with Yiju Apartment, Shenzhen.

Where Extended Stays Bring Work and Play Together

With the rise of remote work, the balance between business and leisure travel, known as ‘bleisure’, is becoming increasingly relevant, ensuring greater interest in extended stays—a core strategy for Lanson Place. Demand is also growing for longer visits from digital nomads and multigenerational family travel.

Focusing on serviced residences and hotels, Lanson Place meets the needs of relocated professionals and long-term guests, providing residential-like accommodations that feature spacious, family-oriented designs along with personalized services.

The integration of a hybrid model allows Lanson Place properties to cater seamlessly to both short-term guests and long-term residents, blending hotel amenities with the comforts of home.
