Centara Hotels and Resorts holding company has rebranded Central Hospitality International (CHI).
The hotel brands, products and services will remain unchanged.
The introduction of CHI serves to differentiate the corporate brand and its member hotel brands, as well as to align the hotel group with the other eponymously named Central Group companies creating greater affiliation and synergy within the Central family.
The inclusion of the word ‘International’ within the name signifies CHI’s intent to continue to expand its portfolio both in Thailand and international markets, becoming even more of a global player in the hospitality sector.
“Our objective is to strategically grow the business and build international brand awareness and recognition through acquiring and managing hotels in global cities and resorts. These locations will be carefully identified according not only to the global travel profile of our existing and prospective guests but also in recognition of those destinations which embrace and value the elements of Thai service style that will continue to form part of the DNA of our brands” said Thirayuth Chirathivat, CEO of Central Hospitality International.
In 2016, the continued international expansion of the hotel group will see the introduction of additional hotel brands to the Central Hospitality International family. Today, the group includes Centara Grand Hotels and Resorts, Centara Hotels and Resorts, Centara Residences and Suites, Centara Boutique Collection, Centra Hotels and Resorts and COSI Hotels.
