M Social Decentraland Hotel Opens  

On May 5, M Social Decentraland, a virtual reality platform division of the Singapore-based Millennium Hotels brand, opened. This is the first hotel in the Metaverse to be opened by a hospitality company. 

Last May 5, 2022, Millennium Hotels and Resorts launched M Social Decentraland, making it the first hospitality company in history to run a hotel in a Metaverse virtual environment.  

The new hotel, inspired by many M Social Hotels across the globe, captures the essence of M Social’s brand as a lifestyle brand and seeks to be a gathering place for everyone to explore the virtual reality world of Decentraland. 

The newest hotel from Millennium Hotels and Resorts is situated in the center of Decentraland, close to Genesis Plaza, on valuable digital real estate. 

 M Social Decentraland is positioned as a destination for adventurers eager to discover new experiences and interact with like-minded people, much like its physical sister hotels. The virtual hotel has a large “M” on each of its four corners, and its inside is modern with glass exteriors and neon pink decorations. 

“M Social is about being unique and different. To engage our guests in the future, we must move beyond the conventional hospitality paradigm, according to Mr. Kwek Leng Beng, executive chairman of Millennium & Copthorne Hotels Limited. Through M Social Decentraland, we seek to revolutionize hospitality by developing online activities that correspond with actual events. 

When visitors enter M Social Decentraland, they can engage with the avatar that greets everyone there. The avatar leads visitors on a discovery-based tour around the hotel. Decentraland’s summit climbers will have the chance to win actual hotel surprises. 

“The hotel industry is changing quickly. To engage customers and improve visitor experiences, we are embracing various technologies. One such channel offers a wide range of chances for us to develop distinctive social connections with our visitors, according to Mr. Saurabh Prakash, Group Senior Vice President, Commercial for Millennium Hotels & Resorts. 

 With online connections to offline engagement, M Social Decentraland will allow us to connect with new and existing clients in the real world and online. 

When visiting M Social Decentraland, visitors can expect to find treasures and be surprised. Linking to the M Social website and hosting special events to celebrate holidays like Valentine’s Day and New Year’s Day will be part of the hotel’s future integration. 

In 2016, the M Social brand was introduced in Singapore. The first virtual place is M Social Decentraland, which joins other actual locations in Paris, New York, Singapore, and Auckland. Future partnerships will be discussed by like-minded companies and Millennium Hotels and Resorts in the coming months.
