Centara Grand & Bangkok Convention Centre at CentralWorld: at the city center for MICE business

Centara Grand & Bangkok Convention Centre at CentralWorld is the only fully-integrated, five-star hotel, convention center, and lifestyle complex within the heart of Bangkok.

Centara Grand & Bangkok Convention Centre at CentralWorld is the only fully-integrated, five-star hotel, convention center, and lifestyle complex within the heart of Bangkok.

Located at Ratchaprasong, and within a few minutesโ€™ walk of Siam Square via the overhead skywalk, the hotel and convention center are within Bangkokโ€™s prime shopping and entertainment district.

The Siam interchange station for the BTS Skytrain is adjacent, thus bringing Bangkokโ€™s public transportation system with easy access.

โ€œOur location really could not be better for MICE events,โ€ says General Manager Robert Maurer-Loeffler.

โ€œThe hotel, convention center, and CentralWorld, one of the biggest shopping and lifestyle complexes in Southeast Asia, are all under one roof.

โ€œWe are at the very center of everything, including the public transportation system, and delegates, guests, and their spouses really do have all of Bangkok within easy reach.โ€

State-of-the-art in every way, the convention center can accommodate up to 7,000 delegates for a reception, or 5,000 attendees seated theatre-style in a single pillar-less environment.

In addition, the World Ballroom has a capacity of 1,000 persons seated theatre-style and is complemented by three Lotus Suites, a VIP room, a boardroom, and two pre-function areas located on the same floor.

A recent addition is M23 on the 23rd floor of the hotel, a suite of four meeting rooms that feature plenty of natural daylight, an open show kitchen and bar for coffee breaks, and even a putting green on the terrace.

CentralWorld also has extensive facilities for multi-media presentations at its theatre complex, and exhibitions and presentations can be arranged within the shopping mall.

Teambuilding activities can also be arranged by the hotelโ€™s professional events team, and also excursions for delegates and their spouses.

โ€œSpouses are also well taken care of,โ€ says Mr. Maurer-Loeffler. โ€œLifestyles on 26 is a complete personal health and well-being venue with 24-hour fitness center, aerobics studio, and two flood-lit tennis courts, and our award-winning Spa Cenvaree offers a wide range of holistic experiences, beauty treatments, and therapeutic massages together with hydro facilities such as infrared sauna and herbal steam bath.โ€

The restaurants within the complex offer attractive dining options for MICE events and incentives groups.

โ€œPopular venues for all kinds of business and events groups are Fifty Five and Red Sky, located on the roof, and offering exciting cuisine along with a memorable view of the city,โ€ says Mr. Maurer-Loeffler. โ€œIndoor and al fresco options are available, and the view from the 55th floor is nothing short of spectacular.โ€
