A Boeing 747 aircraft isn’t usually where you’d expect to find your hotel bed. But in Malaysia’s city of Johor Bahru, 18 hotel suites are taking off without reaching high altitudes…
At 1975 Avenue & Hotel, two Boeing 747 aircraft once built to carry hundreds of passengers are now getting a slightly different kind of overnight guest. The aviation-themed property has transformed the twin planes, named Bove and Bey, with 18 suites.
Having soft-opened to the public in August, the suites are themed by country, with stays inspired by Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand, China, Czechia, England, Italy, and among others, Switzerland.
Inside, the suites are split across two floors and have enough room for a king-size bed, a freestanding bathtub and rain shower in the bathroom plus a separate living area.
All suites can house a maximum of three people, with a nights’ stay in September ranging from 1,706 RM (€360.66) to 2786 RM (€588.99), depending on the suite category.
