Best Western Hotels & Resorts has announced the signing of a stylish new seafront property in the popular resort town of Hua Hin, on Thailand’s gulf coast.
Best Western Plus Carapace Hotel Khao Tao will feature 410 guest rooms and an array of leisure amenities for all types of guest, including couples and families. Nestled close to the beach just south of Hua Hin town center and 2.5 hours’ drive from Bangkok, this contemporary resort will provide the perfect destination for locals, expats and international travelers seeking a revitalizing break from the city.
The elegant resort will offer a series of freeform lagoon pools, slides, waterfalls and a special children’s water play zone, all surrounded by tropical palm trees, sun decks and cozy cabanas. Every room features modern amenities and a balcony overlooking these aquatic attractions, while a series of spacious ground floor rooms offer terraces with direct access to the pools.
A sunken pool bar creates an ideal spot to enjoy a cooling daytime drink, while the Beach Bar allows guests to chill out with refreshing drinks and gaze out over the glistening Gulf of Thailand. The hotel also features a restaurant serving breakfast and all-day Thai and international cuisine, a daytime coffee shop and a modern fitness center, and onsite parking will be available.
“Hua Hin has transformed from a charming coastal town into a thriving international tourism destination that now attracts millions of visitors every year. Newly connected with international flights, it now possesses a wide range of attractions including world-class golf courses, wineries, restaurants and enchanting cultural sites. Best Western Plus Carapace Hotel Khao Tao will allow guests to experience the best of this impressive destination in comfort and style, with spacious accommodation and fantastic facilities, most notably its exotic outdoor pools,” said Olivier Berrivin, Managing Director of International Operations - Asia, Best Western Hotels & Resorts.
Easily accessible by road from Bangkok and the city’s two international airports – Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang – Hua Hin is a vibrant resort town that has attracted Thai and international visitors for many years. It is now better connected than ever before, following the recent launch of ferry services from Pattaya and direct international flights to Hua Hin Airport from Kuala Lumpur. The Thai government is also investing in a major project to expand Hua Hin Airport over the next five years.
Thailand is one of Best Western’s most important strategic markets. The company currently operates nine hotels across the Kingdom, in key destinations including Bangkok, Phuket and Buriram. This nationwide portfolio is set to increase significantly over the coming years, with at least 15 new Best Western hotels scheduled to open in a series of popular and emerging destinations, such as Hua Hin, Pattaya, Chiang Mai and Prachinburi.
Best Western Plus Carapace Hotel Khao Tao will become the first Best Western hotel in Hua Hin.
