Innside Meliá Bangkok Christmas: The new hotel celebrates its first festive season with delectable Spanish menus, buffet feasts and a sky-high countdown party, all accompanied with sweeping views of Bangkok’s skyline and a distinct Ibiza vibe.
After its debut in July this year in Bangkok’s lively On Nut neighbourhood, INNSiDE by Meliá Bangkok Sukhumvit, 208-room urban lifestyle hotel, with an array of remarkable facilities, ranging from a transparent infinity pool and authentic Spanish tapas bar to integrated co-working spaces, hosts its festive program from Dec. 24, 2023 to Jan. 1, 2024.
The hotel’s festive program’s dress code is ‘Ibiza glam’; think flowing white dresses, shirts, and pants, with a touch of glitter and gold.
