OYO’s offer is in response to many requests on social media and elsewhere from NGOs and healthcare practitioners for rooms, apartments and homes within a short radius of hospitals treating Covid-19 patients in these cities.

Tan Ming Luk, Country Head, Singapore & Malaysia, OYO Hotels & Homes said as a provider of essential services and key stakeholder in the tourism and travel industry, OYO has an added responsibility to ensure those who are in need of clean affordable living spaces have access to them.

“Our healthcare practitioners, especially those in the frontlines are working tirelessly, round-the-clock to care for patients with Covid-19. While they care for others, OYO and our partners want to care for them.In that spirit, we went to our partners and asked them to support us to do our part for Malaysia during these unprecedented times and everyone said yes. These are the kind of caring souls we have as partners and I would like to thank them for responding to our call so quickly”.

He adds, “We hope that by offering rooms at OYO partner hotels that are within close proximity of hospitals, we can alleviate some of their burden and ensure they have ready access to clean affordable living spaces within close proximity to their hospitals to rest and refresh themselves before continuing their gruelling routine”.

“Our healthcare practitioners have been subject to gruelling hours as a result of this pandemic. We hope that by offering clean living spaces near hospitals, travel time can be reduced, especially after a gruelling shift. The safety and well-being of our healthcare practitioners traveling to and from hospitals is just as important and OYO wanted to do our part to ensure that.”

On the advice of Majlis Keselamatan Negara (MKN) and guidance from the Ministry of Tourism, Arts & Culture, Malaysia, OYO will continue to accept reservations and check-ins from foreign guests, Employees of Government agencies and anyone employed in any of the essential services mandated during the period which the MCO is imposed. However, the offer only covers the room rate as all other services and facilities at the hotel will remain shut during this time. Only in-room dining is permitted at hotels with F&B outlets.
