New mall in Taman Sentosa

New mall in Taman Sentosa has everything for visitors

The former Lien Hoe Plaza in Taman Sentosa has been given a RM70mil facelift and has been renamed Plaza Sentosa.

The new mall will have a host of outlets catering to the people’s needs with entertainment, food, shopping and also a 260-room hotel.

Plaza Sentosa Advantage Equity Sdn Bhd executive director Datuk CS Ong said Plaza Sentosa was the first Lifestyle Mall in the area.

Lien Hoe Plaza has been around for the past 20 years.

The former Lien Hoe Plaza has now been given a RM70mil facelift and has since been renamed Plaza Sentosa.

“We spent RM70mil to upgrade it into a new outlet,” he said adding that there were a total of 120 tenants in the mall currently.

He added that the location of the mall would be convenient for locals as well as those from Singapore.

In his speech during the grand opening of the mall recently, he said they were banking on seven factors to make the mall stay alive and competitive.

“First of all, is its good location as the mall stands in the middle of the business hub in this district.

“Secondly, the First Lifestyle Mall house eight bistros and clubs and the largest reflexology centre in Malaysia,” he said.

Other factors identified are design and layout, marketable tenants, business class hotel, parking facilities and experienced management team which also contributes to the competitiveness.

“We also have our Grand Sentosa Hotel within the mall, with 260 rooms which will be able to house tourist here.

“With this, we believe that Plaza Sentosa will be able to help in attributing the efforts to achieve Johor government’s aspiration in transforming Johor Baru as the destination for tourist as well as shopping in the Southern Gateway of Malaysia,” he said.

“In conjunction with our grand opening, Grand Sentosa Hotel is offering a special room rate of RM100 only for superior room and is valid until Dec 15.
