The Oriental Wellness Club Welcomes ASMI by Oberoi for a Limited -TimeI Collaboration in Celebration of 150 Years
A wellness journey rooted in ancient Indian wisdom and modern science,  available from 15 to 30 April 2026

As part of its 150th anniversary celebrations, Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok invites guests to discover a wellness collaboration at The Oriental Wellness Club in partnership with ASMI by Oberoi, a personalised wellness philosophy.

Available from 15 to 30 April 2026, the collaboration brings ASMI to The Oriental Wellness Club through a limited-time programme of movement, breathwork, bodywork and mindfulness. The bespoke ASMI journey will be presented by three Masters from ASMI, who will be in residence at The Oriental Wellness Club throughout the programme.

Derived from the Sanskrit phrase meaning ‘I am’, ASMI blends ancient Indian wisdom, including Ayurveda, yoga and mindfulness, with modern science-backed practices. The ASMI approach is rooted in the ancient concept of Pancha Kosha, the five interconnected layers of human existence. Informed by contemporary wellbeing science, the programme is designed to restore equilibrium across five pillars of wellbeing, guiding guests through a journey that awakens vitality, deepens awareness and nurtures balance from within.

The collaboration offers experiences across movement, breathwork, bodywork and mindfulness, with complimentary daily sessions available for in-house guests alongside a series of paid rituals.

Each morning begins with ‘My Mindful Morning Movements’, a complimentary session held daily at 8 am at the Yoga House. The session combines warm-up movements, sun salutations, guided breathing and relaxation to enhance clarity and wellbeing.

In the evening, guests may continue the journey with ‘My Mindful Evening Awareness’, a complimentary daily breathwork session at 6 pm. Through guided breathing techniques, the experience helps restore balance to mind and body, quietens internal noise and encourages a sense of stillness.

For deeper restoration, the bodywork experiences include ‘Restore My Tranquillity’, a two-hour treatment priced at THB 8,000, featuring guided breathing, healing gemstones, Himalayan salt-infused warm poultices and Shirodhara, as well as ‘Dissolve My Aches’, a 90-minute therapy priced at THB 5,800, focused on releasing muscular tension through flowing massage techniques and heat-infused basalt stones.

The programme also includes ‘Lull Me to Sleep’, a 90-minute ritual priced at THB 5,800, designed to promote restful sleep through the use of sound bath, aromatherapy oils, and subtle lighting techniques, alongside ‘Feel My Heart’, a 90-minute experience priced at THB 5,800, inspired by the Sanskrit concept of Sneha, meaning love, centred on connection and emotional balance.

Complementing these experiences is ‘Resonate Me into Harmony’, a 60-minute mindfulness ritual using sound therapy and harmonic vibrations to guide guests into a state of calm and alignment, available at THB 4,000 for an individual session and THB 8,000 for groups of two or more.

This limited-time collaboration forms part of Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok’s 150th anniversary programme, a year-long celebration of heritage, craft and meaningful experiences that continue to shape the hotel’s legacy along the Chao Phraya River.

Banyan Tree Krabi to Host ‘Four-Hands Masterpiece’ Dinner
Saffron introduces a visiting chef and special menu for two nights only

KRABI — “Two heads are better than one,” they say, and so it is at Saffron, Banyan Tree Krabi’s renowned signature restaurant, where on April 23 and 24, Thai Sous Chef Koranat Wiwatthanachot (affectionately known as “Day”) will be joined by visiting Chef Renu Homsombat for two nights of gastronomical flare.

The pair will attempt to woo diners with a sensory culinary journey where local ingredients trace their roots to the land and sea of Thailand.

“We aim to weave a story of Thailand’s heritage with contemporary Thai culinary expression,” said Chef Renu, the Executive Chef at the highly acclaimed Hotel Vereina in Davos, Switzerland.

Chef Renu said that she learned the basics of Thai cuisine at an early age, thanks to her mother who owned a small restaurant in her hometown. Her professional journey in Thailand brought her to Banyan Tree Bangkok in 2023 as Chef de Partie. Her tremendous performance took her to a position of Thai Sous-Chef in 2008, and ultimately to Corporate Saffron Lead Chef.

From there, the world became her oyster and she was invited as a guest chef at several gastronomical fairs and venues, including the 3 MICHELIN star Schwarzwaldstube Restaurant in Germany.

Highlights of the “Four-Hands Masterpiece” set dinner are to include: yum mangkhut khad (crisp Southern mangosteen salad); khao rai hawm huabawn (Krabi upland fragrant rice); and calamansi sorbet infused honey.

The 5-course set dinner starts with an amuse-bouche created by both chefs, then a starter of steamed rice dumplings with aromatic crab curry. The ever-popular tom kha yum goong (coconut soup with prawn) is followed by main courses of either grilled red snapper or duck breast in Thai red coconut curry. Sorbets and a choice of dessert complete the evening’s gastronomic extravaganza.

Chef Renu said that the philosophy behind her cuisine is to keep the authenticity of the unique Thai flavours while presenting it in a modern way.

This special evening at Saffron, on 23 and 24 April 2026 from 6pm, is priced at 2,900 THB per person or 4,900 THB with wine pairings, showcasing varieties from Thailand’s very own Monsoon Valley.

The Resort

Banyan Tree Krabi offers 72 pool suites and villas, among them seven two-bedroom options, one three-bedroom villa, and a majestic seven-bedroom beachfront Presidential Villa. Each of the rooms faces the sea and the sunset as the property tiers into the hillside.

Facilities include two restaurants and a beach bar, a kids’ club, a fitness centre, meeting rooms, and — in harmony with Banyan Tree’s wellbeing branding — a tropical spa with Rainforest hydrotherapy facility.

Banyan Tree Krabi was awarded Two MICHELIN stars by the MICHELIN Guide in 2024 and 2025, and lauded by Fodor’s Travel 2026 as the only hotel in Thailand listed in The 100 Most Incredible Hotels in the World.

Fusion Announces the Opening of Grand Royal Riverside Hue – Fusion Collection in One of  Vietnam’s Leading Heritage Destinations  The wellness-inspired hotel features 161 upscale rooms that reflect the rich heritage of Hue City and the Huong River.

Vietnam – Fusion announces the opening of Grand Royal Riverside Hue – Fusion Collection, a new luxury hotel located in the heart of Hue City in central Vietnam. The opening marks another milestone in Fusion’s successful expansion into some of the region’s most alluring destinations.

Set on the southern bank of the Huong River, adjacent to the iconic Truong Tien Bridge, the hotel, which opens to guests on March 14, boasts a prime riverside location within the UNESCO‑recognized heritage landscape of Vietnam’s former imperial capital.

Blending cultural heritage with contemporary hospitality, Grand Royal Riverside Hue delivers an immersive guest experience rooted in history, place and modern comfort. Hue is internationally recognized for its historic monuments, scenic river landscapes and enduring cultural significance.

Located at No. 02 Hung Vuong Street, the new hotel features two towers comprised of 161 guestrooms. Inspired by the Huong River, a defining symbol of Hue’s culture and history, the property is crafted around the concept “A Tale of Two Times,” blending the elegance of the past with the vibrancy of the present. The river serves as a picturesque backdrop and the unifying narrative thread guiding the hotel’s design and guest journey.

Architecturally inspired by Indochine elegance, the hotel reflects a period of cultural exchange that shaped Hue’s distinctive urban identity. Interiors are layered with natural wood and locally inspired materials, softened by jade-toned hues that evoke calm and balance. The result is a serene and elegant retreat that pays homage to the former imperial capital, where refined design details seamlessly bridge heritage character and contemporary comfort.

The hotel’s Jade & Ginger Restaurant serves a daily breakfast buffet and all-day dining, featuring authentic Vietnamese flavors such as bun bo Hue, pho and banh mi, alongside signature Hue specialties and selected European dishes and other cuisines.

Complementing the dining experience, The Amber Lounge is the hotel’s elegant lobby lounge and social hub. By day, it offers artisanal teas, freshly brewed coffee and light refreshments in a tranquil setting. In the evening, the space transitions into a refined bar presenting curated wines, signature cocktails and premium spirits.

In keeping with Fusion’s strong brand emphasis on health and wellness, the new hotel features Sả Spa (lemongrass) & Wellness with four modern treatment rooms staffed by experienced therapists who use locally sourced herbs and natural essential oils in treatments. The spa also integrates a fitness center, steam room and skincare and rejuvenation services, delivering a holistic relaxation experience.

In addition, the hotel includes meeting and event facilities suitable for corporate functions and MICE activities, with a capacity of up to 370 guests. A variety of flexible spaces, including co-working areas, lounges, reception spaces and elevated venues cater to the diverse needs of leisure travelers, business guests and event organizers.

Ms. Ha Tran, General Manager of the hotel, said: “In recent years, Hue has continued to strengthen its position as one of Vietnam’s most meaningful heritage destinations. With Grand Royal Riverside Hue – Fusion Collection, we are proud to introduce a riverside retreat that honors the city’s cultural legacy while embracing Fusion’s wellness-led hospitality. From design inspired by the Huong River to Sả Spa & Wellness and thoughtfully curated dining experiences, our goal is to offer guests a refined stay that feels unmistakably Hue, calm, restorative and deeply connected to place.”

Mr. Christopher Hur, Chief Executive Officer of Fusion Hotel Group, said: “Hue is one of those rare cities where history isn’t backdrop — it’s the whole point. Opening here is a deliberate move: it rounds out our Vietnam portfolio in a destination that demands authenticity. We’re not just adding keys; we’re planting a flag at a moment when travelers are increasingly seeking meaning alongside comfort — and we believe Fusion is uniquely positioned to deliver just that. Grand Royal Riverside Hue embodies everything that makes the Fusion Collection distinctive — a strong sense of place, wellness at its core, and experiences that couldn’t exist anywhere else.”

Room rates start from USD $130 per night, inclusive of breakfast for two guests. Celebrate our grand opening with 25% off stays until May 31, 2026. Book directly at https://fusion-collection.com/grandroyalriversidehue/ to enjoy this special offer.

Blue by Alain Ducasse Wins “Best French Restaurant” and Ranked Among Thailand’s Top 20 Best Restaurants at the BK Top Tables 2026 Restaurant Awards, Reinforcing Bangkok’s Status as a Global Fine Dining Destination

Blue by Alain Ducasse, the one-Michelin-star French fine dining restaurant located in ICONLUXE on the 1st floor of ICONSIAM, has brought pride by winning the special award “Best French Restaurant” and being ranked among Thailand’s Top 20 Best Restaurants at the prestigious BK Top Tables 2026 Restaurant Awards. This recognition reflects the restaurant’s excellence, creativity, and world-class dining experience that captivates both Thai and international gourmands, reaffirming its status as one of the most outstanding destinations for French fine dining in the region.

The award was determined by a distinguished panel of experts from across the food and lifestyle industries, including renowned food critics, leading chefs, and influential figures in the hospitality sector.

This achievement underscores the restaurant’s position as a key fine dining landmark in Bangkok, presenting contemporary French culinary artistry through seasonal ingredients, meticulous craftsmanship, and a perspective that elegantly blends international flair with local identity.

Under the vision of Chef Evens López, a Peruvian chef with extensive experience at two- and three-Michelin-star restaurants worldwide—including Il Ristorante Trussardi alla Scala in Milan, Pavillon Ledoyen under Yannick Alléno, Le Louis XV – Alain Ducasse in Monaco, The Clove Club, and Dame de Pic London—Chef López draws inspiration from Alain Ducasse’s philosophy and harmonizes it with Thai culinary wisdom. The result is menus that emphasize seasonality, craftsmanship, and emotion. Each dish becomes a dialogue between France and Asia, expressed through advanced techniques and boundless creativity.

This success not only reinforces the restaurant’s standing as one of the finest French restaurants in Thailand but also reflects Bangkok’s role as a global culinary metropolis that attracts travelers and food enthusiasts from around the world to experience exquisite fine dining—encompassing flavors, service, and the iconic curve of the Chao Phraya River. Meanwhile, ICONSIAM, a landmark project by Siam Piwat in joint venture with Charoen Pokphand Group (CP) and Magnolia Quality Development Corporation (MQDC), continues to curate world-class partners and brands to elevate Thailand as a global lifestyle and tourism destination. The presence of a world-class restaurant within the development reflects its vision of creating a Global Experiential Destination along the Chao Phraya River—seamlessly blending luxury, innovation, and extraordinary experiences.

The BK Top Tables 2026 Restaurant Awards is an annual awards platform organized by BK Magazine to honor and rank the most outstanding restaurants in Thailand, from fine dining establishments to popular favorites.
