Centara to Open 2nd Centra Hotel in Bangkok

Centara Hotels & Resorts is to open the second Bangkok hotel under its new Centra four-star value brand in summer 2012.

The Centra Central Station Bangkok is located on the edge of the city’s Chinatown district, a five-minute walk from the Hua Lampong mainline railway station and the MRT subway’s Hua Lampong terminus.

Centara Hotels & Resorts will operate the hotel under a management contract, signed with developer Central Station Company Limited on 2 September 2011.

The hotel has 150 rooms and suites, offering a choice of king and twin beds, with family suites that can comfortably accommodate up to four persons. In-room facilities include individually controlled air-conditioning, satellite TV, a mini-bar fridge, tea and coffee making facilities, high-speed internet access and IDD telephone line.

There are two restaurants within the hotel. Station Café, located on the 12th floor, will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner offering both buffet and a la carte choices of international and Thai cuisine and featuring an open kitchen. Also located on level 12 is Chyna, serving predominantly Chinese dishes along with a selection of Asian regional main courses and desserts, and offering views across the city, outside dining spaces and private rooms for special occasions.

Leisure facilities include Spa Cenvaree, offering a choice of traditional Thai massage and therapeutic treatments with private treatment rooms, and a fully-equipped fitness centre with separate sauna and steam rooms.

Five versatile function rooms located on the 14th and 15th floors of the hotel are complemented by large pre-function spaces ideal for meetings, seminars and conferences. Presentation amenities include LCD projectors and screens, video teleconferencing and high-speed internet access.

The other Centra hotel in Bangkok is Centra Government Complex Hotel & Convention Centre Chaeng Watthana, due to open in the third quarter of this year. Centra Ashlee Hotel Patong, which opened at Patong Beach in Phuket late last year, was the first of the brand to open. Centra Taum Seminyak Bali, which opened in December, is the first overseas property under the Centra brand name.
