Centra Central Station Bangkok to Soft Open 15 July 2013

The Centra Central Station Bangkok, a new 150-room hotel located a short distance from Bangkok’s mainline railway terminus and on the fringe of Chinatown, will soft-open on 15 July 2013.

Chinatown is famous for its historic temples and shrines, including the world-famous Temple of the Golden Buddha, along with its shops and markets, and of course for its Chinese restaurants and food stalls, many of them having been family owned for generations.

The completely new-build hotel will make a perfect base for travellers who are using the mainline railway service, as it is opposite to the Hua Lamphong railway terminus.

The MRT underground Metro also has a station at Hua Lamphong, and guests at the hotel will be able to use the subway to explore Bangkok.

Thirayuth Chirathivat, chief executive officer of Centara Hotels & Resorts, said, “This is a location in Bangkok where culture, sights and fabulous food meet. For visitors intent on exploring Chinatown, sightseeing in Bangkok, or travelling to Thailand’s resorts and provinces, we shall be offering great comfort in a tremendous location.”

In addition to the Cense by Spa Cevaree and a fitness centre, the hotel will feature Chyna, a restaurant serving authentic Chinese cuisine against a city skyline backdrop, and Station Café, an all-day restaurant serving Thai and international dishes from an open kitchen.

Centra Central Station Bangkok is also well located for business meetings, seminars, receptions and other events, and the hotel has five meeting rooms fully supported by conference and presentation equipment such as LCD projectors and screens, together with wireless internet access.
