Away Chiang Mai Thapae Resort, a premium property of Cross Hotels & Resorts located in the heart of Chiang Mai city of Thailand, is an ideal destination to stay. The 39-key boutique property, surrounded by ponds and gardens, has various temples and cultural points in the vicinity. Airport, night bazaar, and walking street are just 5-10 minutes away.
Talking about the Unique Selling Points (USPs) of the property, Katerawee Thepprachum, General Manager, Away Chiang Mai Thapae Resort, highlights, “The resort is surrounded by private balconies where you can feel the nature’s hug. Another major USP is that the resort also has organic vegan and plant-based meals at Moreganic Restaurant, which serves Indian guests well.” She says that they have plans to expand their portfolio in 2024. “We will increase the number of keys for our guests probably by the second half of 2024. Indian partners are key to us, as we are proactively working with them to provide best and quality accommodation and hospitality. We see a huge potential in the destination as far as Indians are concerned,” she shares.
Focus on wellness & relaxation
Thepprachum says that there has been a complete change in people’s lifestyle after the pandemic, as they focus more on their health. “We have well-being activities such as yoga, therapy, and meditation,” the GM says. The property is ideal for small-size events. “We encourage them to book our buy out package, so that we can create tailor-made service based on the guest’s preference,” she shares.
