Kew Green Hotels, one of the UK’s leading hotel management companies with over 55 hotels in its portfolio, is continuing its global expansion with the signing of three properties in Bangkok to be delivered by Siamese and Kew Green Management Company Thailand: Crowne Plaza Rama 9, Cassia by Banyan Tree Rama 9 and Cassia by Banyan Tree Ram Intra. This is in addition to the signing of four hotels under the Wyndham Hotels & Resorts brand umbrella which are due to open in Bangkok from the end of 2021, bringing it to a total of seven hotels in Thailand.

As part of Kew Green Hotels’ growing global presence, they have entered into a global partnership with the award-winning Light Human Hotels, announcing the first collection of hotel openings: Light Human Hotels Vila Real Porto in Portugal will open in 2022, followed by Light Human Hotel Curitiba in Brazil from 2023. Future Light Human Hotels, exclusively managed by Kew Green Hotels, will include Paris, Porto Marina in Portugal, Miami, Corsica, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

Confident in Thailand’s position as a world-class tourism destination, and as the country is preparing to open to international arrivals outside of the Sandbox in Phuket, Chris Dexter, Chief Executive Officer of Kew Green Hotels remarked “We are delighted to be continuing our expansion globally, both into South East Asia, as well as in the Americas and in Europe. This announcement reflects Kew Green Hotels’ broadening expertise in the international hotel market and reputation for operational excellence, strong commercial awareness and industry leading profit delivery.”

Siamese and Kew Green Management Company Thailand expansion

Siamese and Kew Green Management Company Thailand will launch a total of seven properties in the heart of Bangkok from late 2021: The Wyndham Queen Convention Centre, Wyndham Garden Sukhumvit 42, Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Sukhumvit 48, Ramada by Wyndham Sukhumvit 87, Cassia by Banyan Tree Group Rama 9, Crowne Plaza Bangkok Rama 9 and Cassia by Banyan Tree Group Ram Intra. Alongside the launch of these seven properties, Kew Green Hotels will also be launching a Commercial Hub for South East Asia to support the region, based in Bangkok.

Cassia by Banyan Tree Rama 9 will launch in 2023 with 300 rooms within a mixed-use development, Siamese Rama 9, which also features high-end apartments, office space and a mall. Close to the Thai capital’s new central business district, the property is conveniently located on the bustling Rama 9, offering exceptional access to world-class shopping at Central Plaza Grand and connectivity to the rest of Bangkok via a nearby MRT station.

Crowne Plaza Bangkok Rama 9, due to launch in 2023, features 285 rooms, also within the mixed-use development, Siamese Rama 9. This marks the first time IHG has completed a franchise agreement in Thailand, as they expand their relationship with long-term partner Kew Green Hotels, as part of the Joint Venture with experienced Thai real estate developer, Siamese Asset.

Cassia by Banyan Tree Ram Intra is a home away from home for leisure and business guests, located in north east Bangkok, with connectivity to the Thai capital’s central business district and leisure attractions. The hotel features 220 rooms and will launch in 2024.
