PANDA THEMED HOTEL









At the end of 2013 or the beginning of 2014, Malaysia is set to welcome two cuddly Pandas which are on loan to us from China for 10 years. Can't wait to go and see them at Zoo Negara.
There was also news last week about the opening of a Panda Post Office.  How cute!  And while looking up this post office, I found that in May this year a Panda Hotel was opened in Chengdu. 
Hmm ... wonder if they have tours to take people to go visit the Panda Inn and the Panda Post Office.

Meanwhile, here is the article about the Panda Hotel or Panda Inn as it is called.

PANDA HOTEL

It's pure panda-monium. A Chinese hotel in the country's Sichuan province has claimed to be the world's first hotel dedicated expressly for pandas.

The Haoduo Panda Hotel, which lies at the foot of Emei Mountain near the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breedingfacility, has decked out its rooms with panda pictures, cuddly panda toys and furniture decorated with the endangered animal. Like other theme hotels, such as at Disney resorts, the staff even dress in panda costumes so guests can have a real-live panda experience.

The themed guest rooms have panda-painted walls, and one appears to show a scene from the "Titanic" movie where Kate Winslet stands on the bow of the ship while Leonard DiCaprio stands behind her.

The hotel, which officially opens in May, have room rates that range from US$48 to $80 per night.
