Rest Detail Hotel Hua Hin Builds Library for Local School

The Rest Detail Hotel in Hua Hin, Thailand, has completed its latest corporate social responsibility project.

The staff from the hotel built and furnished a dedicated library facility for the local Ban Wang Bost School which is located 20 kms away from the Rest Detail Hotel and approximately 3 km from the popular Black Mountain Golf Course.

The Ban Wang Bost School has 76 pupils aged 3 to 12.

The hotel has also provided books for the library and will continue to add new books on a quarterly basis.

The construction commenced on 14 March 2011 and the library was officially opened on 10 April. A team of 8 staff from the hotel worked on the project which took 252 hours (28 days, 9 hours) to complete, at a cost of 200,000 Baht (US$6,904).

The Library was named “Lor Ling Rian Roo” which translates to learning and knowing – and combines with the playful logo of the Rest Detail Hotel’s three wise monkeys.

The hotel donates 50 Baht per occupied room night from their revenue to the program and guests can make a personal donation either by donating books to the Rest Detail Hotel or its Bangkok Office, or by donating cash in the special envelope provided in guestrooms.

“This is a project we are most passionate about in order to promote literacy and education for the next generation,” said Jakri Rujirat, General Manager, Rest Detail Hotel Hua Hin. “We have a strong commitment to corporate social responsibility in our local community and find that our guests are genuinely interested in supporting a local project where they can really make a difference. Without tourism, this would not be possible.”
