Bangkok, Thailand, 28 January 2019 – CapitaLand’s wholly-owned serviced residence business unit, The Ascott Limited in Thailand is expanding its Somerset brand to Chonburi province with the soft opening of the brand-new Somerset Harbourview Sri Racha on 15 January 2019.
Nestled in the heart of the city, Somerset Harbourview Sri Racha is just a stone’s throw away from restaurants, cafes, shopping districts, medical facilities and is within easy reach of Laem Chabang and the centre for major industrial estates on the eastern seaboard. The location is also a perfect getaway with many attractions that are untouched by tourism. Guest can relax at Koh Loy, an island connected to the mainland or get tanned at Koh Si Chang, just a 40-minute ferry ride away to enjoy tranquillity and a beach to yourself, or take a 30-minute drive to the resort city of Pattaya.
Somerset Harbourview Sri Racha features 176 thoughtfully appointed studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom serviced apartments that cater to business executives, holiday makers and families. Each contemporary apartment is complete with fully-equipped kitchenette and separate work and living areas, modern amenities as well as a private balcony with spectacular views of the harbour or the city of Sri Racha. At the end of a long day, residents can enjoy a refreshing workout at the gym, take a leisurely swim at the roof-top infinity pool, relax in the jacuzzi, sweat it out in the sauna or get comfortable at the resident’s lounge.
Mr. Brian Tan, Country General Manager for Ascott in Thailand and Laos, said:
“Somerset Harbourview Sri Racha is a beautiful property with great apartments, guest facilities, spectacular views and most importantly, staffed with our wonderful service-oriented colleagues.
This addition strengthens Ascott’s position as one of the largest international lodging owner-operators in Thailand, with 4,300 units across 20 properties presently. We will continue expanding our international-class serviced residences and deliver great hospitality with warm and heartfelt service to ensure that our guests have a truly comfortable and memorable stay with us.”
