MINOR Hotel Group (MHG) today announced that it would take over the management of Amari Atrium Bangkok in October and relaunch the property as Thailand’s first AVANI-branded hotel next year.
Ahead of the rebranding in 2014, the hotel will be subject to extensive renovation works to guestrooms and public areas.
The move is part of MHG’s plans to expand the reach of AVANI Hotels & Resorts, an upscale brand that was debuted in 2011 to go hand-in-hand with the group’s Anantara brand properties.
The AVANI portfolio presently consists of two AVANI resorts in Sri Lanka and two more to come – one in Quy Nhon, Vietnam and the other in Sepang, Malaysia. MHG also intends to take the brand across Asia, India, the Indian Ocean and the Middle East.
The 568-key Amari Atrium Bangkok is located in New Petchburi Road, a commercial and retail district in the Asoke-Sukhumvit area and currently offers two executive floors, as well as deluxe and superior guestrooms.
Facilities include restaurants and bars, a swimming pool, sun deck, fitness centre, ballroom, and meeting and event spaces.
