Hotels around Bandar Sunway for Convocation Day

August 10, 2016August 8, 2016 by LerLer Chan

Year end is coming. There are more festivals to celebrate too. For example: Hari Raya, Deepavali, National Day and Christmas day. Not to mentions, college or university convocation celebration are coming up too. Bandar Sunway is best known for its famous education hub in Peninsular Malaysia. There are more than 10 colleges or universities in this area.

College or university around Bandar Sunway

Based on my past experience, there are times parent will look for hotels around higher education institute.

Parents often will stay one or two nights in Bandar Sunway to attend their children’s convocation day.
Sometime, it may not be convocation day. Parent or relatives may want to visit their kids during the college or university registration day.
Before children can find a hostel or accommodation, they may need to stay a few days around the area too.

Why Online Hotel Booking?

Some parent or students prefer to find hotel or accommodation after reaching the campus area. it is nothing wrong of it. But, let me show you a case study.

Each convocation event, there may be more than 1000 students graduate. One student may have 2 tickets for their family members to attend the convocation event. Malaysians or Indonesians still have this good “Kampung” spirit. We often bring the whole family members to attend convocation event. It will be harder to find a hotel on the convocation day. Thus, it is best to online booking for hotel before any important celebration.

#1 Various payment methods offered by Traveloka

Other than Malaysia related banks, Traveloka includes major oversea banks as your payment options too.

#2 Easy to compare and book

You can easily compare and select hotel types based on your needs.
