JOM! STAY: OYO, hotels for solo vacations

OYO Hotels and Homes offers affordable rooms from as low as Rm49 a night

TRAVEL solo in Malaysia and you’ll inevitably fall in love with the beautiful country.

You’ll be exposed to a colourful metropolis where culture, religion and taste come together to form a melting pot of modern Asia.

Known for its beaches, rainforests and cultural influences from the Malays, Chinese, Indians and Europeans, Malaysia gives you an excellent visual narrative.
