Handy Smartphones Now Available at Two Anantara Hotels in Bangkok, Thailand

The Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel (formerly the Four Seasons, Bangkok) and Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort are now offering guests a complimentary smartphone.

The aptly named “handy” device is preloaded with destination specific features as well as  interactive travel solutions designed to enhance the guest experience.

Handy also offers unlimited local and international calls to ten destinations from each hotel, including Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, China, United Kingdom and United States.

Unlimited 3G data connectivity comes with a WiFi tethering capability to other mobile devices such as laptops and tablets and also pre-installed popular social media apps like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Pre-installed travel apps include those for currency conversion, maps, GPS as well as news and translation services, and more can be added from the Google Play Store.

An informative digital city guide includes recommendations and promotions for restaurants, shops and tourist attractions, and there is even a handy taxi card feature, which details the hotels’ address written in Thai with a location map included for easy reference.

When a guest checks-out of the hotel, their browsing history and any additional apps that have been installed as well as any other information will be removed when the device is reset.
