InterContinental Hotels Group has recently opened Holiday Inn Express Bangkok Sathorn in Bangkok, Thailand. Owned by TCC Hotels Group, the 184-room hotel marks the brand’s third property in the country and the second in the capital.
Just 30 minutes from Suvarnabhumi Airport and with a central location in the Sathorn business district, Holiday Inn Express Bangkok Sathorn is in the heart of the city and close to all the major international corporate offices, as well as the vibrant Silom area, which is famous for its shopping, dining and entertainment options.
“Opening our second Holiday Inn Express property in the centre of Thailand’s capital offers both business and leisure guests an amazing opportunity to stay in an ideal location whether visiting the city for work or to absorb the diverse and colourful culture, electric nightlife and famous cuisine. Last year Thailand achieved record numbers of tourist arrivals, with over 26 million visitors from around the world, making the country an important part of our growth strategy in South East Asia,” said Clarence Tan, Chief Operating Officer South East Asia and Resorts, IHG.
Owned by Thai conglomerate TCC Hotels Group, it will be the first Holiday Inn Express hotel to be owned by the group, who also owns InterContinental, Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn hotels under IHG’s brand portfolio.
Holiday Inn Express Bangkok Sathorn has quick access to commuter links with the Chong Non Sri BTS skytrain stop only two minutes away, which will take travellers directly to destinations such as Siam Paragon, one of Asia’s largest shopping complexes, or the amazing Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC). From the hotel guests can take a leisurely walk to the majestic Chao Phraya River with its exciting markets and temples including The Emerald Buddha Temple and museum in a matter of minutes.
Holiday Inn Express Bangkok Sathorn also offers:
- Free and fast Wi-Fi available throughout the hotel to stay connected to loved ones and business associates
- Free Express Start™ Breakfast or a Grab & Go option for a smart start to the day
- A fully-equipped fitness room to upkeep your fitness regime while travelling
- A comfortable and restful sleep with high quality bedding and a choice of firm or soft pillows
- Refreshing power showers with a three-function massage showerhead and fluffy towels to help guests stay revitalised
Holiday Inn Express Bangkok Sathorn is the eighth Holiday Inn Express to open in Southeast Asia, less than two years after the brand made its debut in the region. The new hotel joins Holiday Inn Express Bangkok Siam and Holiday Inn Express Phuket Patong Beach Central as the third property in Thailand, which will soon be followed by the Holiday Inn Express Sukhumvit 11, which is slated to open later this year.
IHG currently has 16 hotels across Thailand, including three InterContinental Hotels and Resorts, one Crowne Plaza hotel, nine Holiday Inn Hotels and Resorts and three Holiday Inn Express hotels. IHG continues to grow in the country: there are nine hotels due to open in Thailand over the next three to five years, including the debut of IHG’s boutique brand, Hotel Indigo.
