Centara Grand Beach Resort & Villas Hua Hin named as Top Hotel 2014 by HolidayCheck

The resort hotel, which originally opened in 1923 as the Railway Hotel, and which is a member of Leading Hotels of the World, won the awards for the number of reviews and the high ratings given to it by guests. Worldwide, the reviews of more than 980,000 holidaymakers were analysed for the awards, which named a total of 389 winning hotels in six categories.

Centara Grand Beach Resort & Villas Hua Hin was the first resort hotel in Thailand, opening when the railway line was built from Bangkok to Malaysia. The hotel has been in the portfolio of Centara Hotels & Resorts since 1985 and has recently been renovated with every sensitivity towards its origins.

“We are always very much aware both of our heritage and the needs of our modern-day guests. To win these two awards is a matter of great pride for all of our staff here, and recognizes what a wonderful experience this lovely old hotel is for our guests”, says the hotel’s general manager, Jacques Mury.
