Oakwood to Open 7th Property in Thailand in May

Oakwood plans to open its seventh property in Thailand, and the fourth in the Kingdom's capital city, in May.

The Oakwood Hotel & Residence Bangkok, scheduled to open on 19 May 2021, will add 142 studios and one-bedroom apartments to the Thai capital.

Located a short distance away from Asiatique The Riverfront and ICON SIAM, the Oakwood Hotel & Residence Bangkok is situated between two BTS train stations – Saphan Taksin and Surasak.

“Oakwood Hotel & Residence Bangkok will enhance the hospitality landscape surrounding the iconic Chao Phraya River and offer an elevated experience for guests seeking a residential stay,” said Dean Schreiber, interim chief executive officer of Oakwood. “Drumming the heartbeat of local Thai community whilst delivering the spirit of Bangkok with life along the river, global travellers can finally enjoy a personal safe sanctuary where they can define hospitality excellence on their own terms.”

Hotel facilities include an outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre, sauna, two meeting rooms, a lobby bar, restaurant, and an executive lounge.

“Bangkok has tremendous potential for a differentiated hospitality experience, especially in the area along the Chao Phraya River,” said Prinya Tieanworn, chief executive officer of the property's owner, the V.M.P.C. Group. “The opening of Oakwood Hotel & Residence Bangkok puts us in good stead to elevate the standard of residential lifestyle for local guests and the gradual return of international visitors.”
