Hilton’s commitment to expanding its presence in Southeast Asia is evident with its latest hotel openings in Thailand, which have made the country its largest market in the region. The global hospitality brand recently unveiled two new properties: the Hilton Garden Inn Rayong and the Hilton Garden Inn Bangkok Riverside. These additions are a testament to Hilton’s strategy to cater to the growing demand for premium yet affordable accommodations, driven by Thailand’s vibrant tourism scene both in its capital and popular beach destinations.
The Hilton Garden Inn brand, known for its upscale and accessible offerings, continues to attract both business and leisure travelers with its bright, modern spaces and warm hospitality. With over 100 properties already established in the Asia Pacific region and more than 200 in development, Hilton Garden Inn is poised to play a crucial role in Hilton’s ambitious goal of operating over 1,000 hotels in the region by 2025. Hilton has further signaled its commitment to the region by announcing plans for additional Hilton Garden Inn properties in Mui Ne Beach, Vietnam, and Manado, Indonesia. Following the opening of the Rayong and Bangkok Riverside locations, the Hilton Garden Inn Surat in India is expected to open its doors by the end of the year.
The Hilton Garden Inn Bangkok Riverside boasts a prime location atop the ICS lifestyle complex along the iconic Chao Phraya River. This stylish hotel offers 241 spacious guest rooms, a well-equipped fitness center, and a refreshing outdoor pool. Guests can enjoy a diverse range of culinary delights at the hotel’s dining venue, Together & Co., which serves both local and international dishes, as well as grab-and-go options available around the clock. The hotel is also an ideal choice for business events and social gatherings, featuring flexible meeting spaces, including venues up to 258 square meters. The hotel’s strategic location provides easy access to major attractions, including ICONSIAM, the TRUE ICON Hall Convention Center, and the Charoen Nakhon BTS Station, making it a convenient choice for travelers.
The Hilton Garden Inn Rayong, which opened its doors on August 22, 2024, marks the brand’s first foray into Rayong’s vibrant city center, a popular beach destination in Thailand. The hotel offers over 200 well-appointed rooms, providing a welcoming ambiance and elevated amenities to cater to solo travelers, business professionals, and families alike. Its location next to Central Rayong shopping mall and within an hour’s drive of Pattaya City and U-Tapao-Rayong-Pattaya International Airport provides easy access to the region’s attractions. The hotel also offers convenient access to Ban Phe pier, making the pristine beaches of Koh Samet just a short trip away. Guests can enjoy breathtaking city views from the rooftop restaurant &ocial, stay active at the fitness center, or savor a variety of local and international favorites at the all-day restaurant Together & Co.
