Renovated InterContinental set to open next month

InterContinental Bangkok.

InterContinental Bangkok, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts, will fully reopen in June after a multimillion-dollar renovation.

Located in the heart of the city and conveniently adjacent to the BTS Chit Lom Skytrain station, InterContinental Bangkok delivers unparalleled walkability to abundant lifestyle shopping locations and major business addresses just steps from the door of guests' rooms.

The new interior of the hotel features lavish design across public spaces as well as the fully renovated 381 luxury rooms and newly added two-bedroom suites. The fresh aesthetic is designed to introduce travellers to Thailand's rich culture through a blend of handmade artwork crafted by local artisans and modern abstract art inspired by Thai welcoming ceremonies.

The new InterContinental Bangkok will additionally offer a dedicated wedding studio for couples seeking to tie the knot. The full-service space can hold meetings with any, and all, service providers of a couple's choosing -- from photographers, videographers, wedding planners, officiants, florists, and musicians.

Room rates start from 7,500 baht++ for a Classic Room and are available for stays from June 1.

Get nutritional advice at Chiva-Som Hua Hin

Chiva-Som in Hua Hin recently launched a new Personalised Supplements service, a tailored approach designed to meet individual nutritional needs.

The approach is centred around promoting a balanced diet, believing that nutrition should be viewed as a foundation of health as well as a source of pleasure. Guests are advised on healthy living through nutrient optimisation with recommended supplements. The new service aims to provide peace of mind and confidence that nutritional needs are being met in a targeted way.

The Personalised Supplements option offers guests the opportunity to understand their current health status and take immediate steps to correct imbalances in the body, with the added benefit of supporting healthy ageing and longevity by addressing nutritional gaps. Supplements may enhance overall health outcomes and reduce the risk of chronic diseases by providing nutrients that have been shown to support specific health conditions.

The Personalised Supplements service includes an on-site blood sample taken for testing to determine levels of essential vitamins, minerals and hormones; and a one-to-one follow-up session with our wellness expert to discuss diet, lifestyle and family history. A set of daily supplements are then customised to the guest's specific needs. The prescribed collection of bespoke vitamins, minerals and/or antioxidants will support overall health and fill nutrient gaps. All supplements are manufactured by a laboratory partner using high-quality ingredients sourced from around the world.
