A Japanese man has won a complimentary three-night stay at any of Ascott’s serviced residences every year for the next 25 years.
Ascott, the world’s largest international serviced residence owner-operator, presented its 25th Anniversary grand prize to Japanese businessman Tomo Takuma.
Takuma stayed for a year at Citadines Shanghai Biyun from April 2008 to March 2009, and was picked from four million chances.
Ascott flew the 35-year-old Shanghai-based Japanese expatriate to Singapore for the recent prize presentation at Ascott Raffles Place Singapore.
“I can’t believe my luck. I have never won such a big prize in my life,†said Takuma when receiving the prize from Chong Kee Hiong, CEO of Ascott Residence Trust Management.
Takuma, a wine aficionado, is looking forward to sampling the world’s finest wines for his first complimentary stay with Ascott.
He said, “I love red wine, and the first place I want to visit is the Ascott property in Bordeaux,†referring to Citadines Bordeaux Meriadeck.
