Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 06/03/2024
» Ayutthaya offers a quick getaway from Bangkok with temples, historic sites, markets, local delicacies and more to explore. A day trip simply isn't enough to do justice to what the former capital of Thailand has to offer and, instead, you may want to consider an overnight or two at Centara Ayutthaya, which opened its doors in December.

Amari anew
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 31/01/2020
» Amari Pattaya, which underwent major renovations last year, now offers the new Amari Suites and original-but-fully-rejuvenated Amari Tower. It immediately gives guests a sense of arrival with its vast and spacious lobby at Amari Tower. The receptionists work with their backs to a huge and beautiful wall panel created by Italian artist Alex Turco. It shows different shades of blue, fitting to Amari Pattaya's beachside location. Look above and you'll see a very long rattan chandelier that resembles the clouds. Living up to its family-friendly status, a counter is dedicated to a children's check-in. Yep, you read that right. A young guest who's below the age of 12 can "check-in" and receive vouchers and small gifts. Gimmicky, definitely yes. But it should make the kids feel special and welcome. And who wouldn't like that?
