In a bid to further enhance consumers’ search and reservation experience, Ascott Limited (Ascott) has launched three mobile versions of its three brand websites.

CapitaLand’s wholly-owned serviced residence business unit unveiled http://www.the-ascott.com, http://www.citadines.com and http://www.somerset.com as well as an online chat facility, which allows guests to access information easily, make enquiries as well as reserve Ascott’s properties worldwide.

“The sophisticated and tech-savvy travellers of today want fast and convenient access to information while on the go,” said Tony Soh, Chief Corporate Officer of Ascott.

“In addition to leveraging social media, Ascott’s mobile-friendly websites and online chat facility will enable us to better reach out to our guests wherever they are, whenever they choose and whatever platform they prefer to use.”

The websites can be easily accessed by Blackberry, iPhone or Android users, and they can check on current promotions, apartment availability or make reservations instantly.

Meanwhile, the online chat facility will help guests raise queries with an Ascott representative who will respond via instant messaging.

Koh Brothers’ ‘Concept Home’ draws the crowds

Posted on 23 May 2012 | Comments Off on Koh Brothers’ ‘Concept Home’ draws the crowds

More than one hundred applicants turned up at Koh Brothers’ office during a four-hour window period this past Saturday to submit their 100-word essay on ‘Why we deserve the best experience in life’, part of the developer’s commitment to collect feedback from “real users” of the “Concept Home”.

“The enthusiastic response to Concept Home was a pleasant surprise for us,” said Francis Koh, Managing Director and Group Chief Executive of Koh Brothers Group.

“It affirms that our aim to provide a signature lifestyle with Big ideas for Smaller spaces is going in the right direction. We want to obtain feedback so that we may incorporate some of these ideas to further fine-tune and improve our future developments, as we continue to take the lead in defining the standard for new urban lifestyle.”

Aside from offering the winning family a free-stay at its Fiorenza condo development for six months starting in June this year, the developer will also bear all utility and maintenance bills.

Some of the innovative features of the Concept Home include space optimisation ideas – from Italian imported electric-operated coffee cum dining table, 3D contemporary wall decoration and motorised sun screen technology, to SONOS advanced multi-room surround sound system and high-end ‘Cabrio In’ range of designer study/work furniture.

Koh Brothers launched the unique Concept Home at Fiorenza on 7 May.
