History
Marriott International signed a hotel management agreement with developer Rackson Group in January 2022 to bring the Le Méridien brand to Penang for the first time, with a 200-room hotel including suites and a presidential suite, designed by SA Architects Malaysia. The hotel is the first phase of Penang Gateway, a RM1.5 billion mixed-use development in Bayan Lepas next to Penang International Airport that also includes a residential tower, serviced apartments, a medical centre and retail space. Originally due by the end of 2026, it was rescheduled at its November 2024 groundbreaking for completion in the fourth quarter of 2027.
