Singapore, 29 May 2015 – Millennium & Copthorne Hotels (M&C) has kicked off the 28th SEA Games 2015 with a series of high-energy events to promote the SEA Games spirit among hotel staff and guests.
Three of M&C Hotels here are official SEA Games Hotels. The activities include:

- Serving up customised cupcakes topped by flags of SEA Games countries;
- Special grooming and cultural etiquette lessons to ensure guests feel at home in the Games.
The properties are among the 20 official SEA Games hotels located in “village in a city”, a concept adopted by the Singapore SEA Games Organising Committee to house athletes near the Sports Hub and where most of the competitions and fringe activities will be held. The aim is to bring vibe to the city and reduce post-games costs in converting a dedicated games village to other uses.
