HK: Serviced apartment and coliving operator Dash Living has announced a collaboration with The Ascott Limited in Hong Kong and Singapore.
The collaboration with Ascott opens up new locations for Dash members, marking a significant milestone for the company’s expansion in Asia Pacific.
Through the collaboration, six of Ascott’s in Hong Kong and Singapore will be available for reservation on Dash Living’s website. Guests will be able to choose from five serviced residences – Somerset Victoria Park Hong Kong, Citadines Ashley Hong Kong, Ascott Raffles Place Singapore, Citadines Balestier Singapore and Citadines Fusionopolis Singapore, as well as its coliving property, lyf Funan Singapore.
Founded by serial entrepreneur Aaron Lee in 2014, Dash Living has grown to manage and operate more than 1,300 units across serviced apartments, coliving homes and hotel rooms, with more than 250,000 square feet under its management.
“The collaboration will significantly widen the choice of locations and perks for Dash members,” said Lee. “As a trailblazer in offering rental solutions, we strive to offer affordable accommodation for people in the region while catering to their needs to make their stay comfortable, connected, and convenient. The new additions from one of the top global lodging owner-operators like Ascott will help to enrich the living experience further.”
Dash Living has also announced the launch of two Hong Kong projects, in Aberdeen and Sheung Wan, in collaboration with hotel group Ovolo.
A total of 135 rooms and suites that form part of “a new generation of serviced rental solutions for hyper-mobile millennials” will be available for booking. The Aberdeen by Dash Living, soon-to-be converted from Mojo Nomad By Ovolo, offers 79 rooms ranging from studios to executive suites. The 56-room The Sheung Wan By Ovolo, only remaining under Ovolo’s management for stays under seven days, will offer units from studio and one-bedroom to family room options.
“These two new properties are in superb locations in Hong Kong and means Dash Living is now providing its unique solutions with an even wider coverage in the city,” said Lee. “We are now in eight locations in Hong Kong, creating an accommodation community with tech, coworking, lifestyle and other benefits.”
Girish Jhunjhnuwala, founder and CEO of Ovolo Hotels, said: “Partnering with Dash living was a no-brainer, it’s great to work alongside another great entrepreneur who pioneers effortless rental living solutions in the Hong Kong region. Our aim is to work closely with Dash Living to ensure all touchpoints of the guests experience are harmonious and too attractive to think about going anywhere else.”
