Nestled along the golden shores of Hua Hin, the InterContinental Hua Hin Resort stands as an icon of timeless elegance and sophistication. On the evening of February 3rd, a momentous celebration took place to celebrate the resort’s 15 years of excellence, and unveiling a significant transformation that redefines luxury in this beloved holiday destination.
Under the theme of “The Next Chapter of The Legend, Where Nostalgia Meets Seaside Elegance,” the resort revealed its breathtaking renovation, breathing new life into its cherished Beach Wing area. Stepping into the redesigned lobby, guests are greeted with a sense of grandeur and charm, with expanded spaces that now include a family board game corner nestled within the conservatories, a dedicated concierge service corner, and an additional room for seamless group check-ins.
Attention to detail shines through in each of the 119 meticulously refurbished rooms and suites, where the allure of the 1920s and the Royal heritage is preserved while seamlessly blending with modern comforts. From 55’ smart televisions to high-end sound systems by Harman Kardon and premium bedding, every aspect of the guest experience has been meticulously curated to elevate relaxation and rejuvenation.
Adding to the allure are the newly introduced room types, offering a range of one-bedroom suites, private pool suites with direct access to the lagoon pool, and rooms boasting breathtaking views of the ocean and the iconic pool.
Culinary delights await at every turn, with the enhanced breakfast experience at Pirom capturing the vibrant ambiance of Hua Hin’s famed night market. Guests can indulge in a diverse array of local and international cuisines, including authentic Thai dishes prepared with the freshest ingredients. Azure Restaurant invites guests to savor Mediterranean-style cuisine against the backdrop of the azure sea, while Jaras Hua Hin restaurant tantalizes taste buds with regal Thai flavors. For those seeking a relaxing evening, CoCco Bar offers a sophisticated setting to enjoy handcrafted cocktails amidst Art Deco-inspired décor.
The resort’s swimming pool area has also undergone a stunning transformation, now adorned with additional private cabanas and sunbathing areas along the private beach, offering guests the ultimate in luxury and relaxation. Recognized with the Top 10 Hotel Pools Thailand award from the Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific 2023, the pool area is a sanctuary of serenity and indulgence.
Beyond relaxation, guests can partake in a myriad of activities, from rejuvenating yoga sessions to exhilarating water sports at the new water activity center. The Planet Trekkers Kids Club has been thoughtfully redesigned to cater to family travelers, offering engaging activities that capture the essence of Hua Hin’s vibrant culture and heritage.
A unique addition to the resort is the “InterContinental Hua Hin Express,” a charming burgundy red train that transports guests within the hotel area, evoking the golden age of train travel in the 1920s and adding a touch of nostalgia to the guest experience.
