Thailand: Journey Hub Hotel Phuket, a property owned by Boutique Corporation, has been rebranded as the Oakwood Hotel Journeyhub Phuket.
Oakwood and Boutique Corporation have had a collaborative relationship since the establishment of Oakwood Residence Sukhumvit 24 in Bangkok more than 10 years ago, and recently signed a deal for several more properties.
“We are excited to be launching Oakwood Hotels and Apartments across Thailand, a key market in Asia-Pacific that continues to thrive and attract both business and leisure travellers seeking long- and short-term accommodation options,” said Dean Schreiber, managing director/Asia-Pacific, Oakwood, when the deal was signed earlier this year. “We have had an excellent relationship with Boutique Corp. for more than a decade and we look forward to growing the Oakwood portfolio in Thailand with our trusted partner.”
“As the market shifts from a more corporate-dominated demand to an increasing number of leisure travellers opting to stay in serviced apartments, I am confident that we will have a strong portfolio of properties poised to extend the Oakwood hospitality to our guests in Thailand,” said Prab Thakral, president/group CEO of Boutique Corporation Public Company Ltd.
Oakwood Hotel Journeyhub Phuket marks Oakwood’s entry into a resort location. The property has 171 rooms and suites along with a rooftop infinity pool, a fitness centre and the Crossways Bar & Restaurant. The hotel is close to Jungceylon Shopping Centre, Bangla Road and Patong Beach.
The next opening for the partnership will be a 76-room property in central Pattaya.</p
