Singapore, 22 November 2022 – Banyan Tree Group, one of the world’s leading independent hospitality groups, continues to expand one of its latest brand concepts, Homm, with two new properties – Homm Sukhumvit34 Bangkok, Thailand, and Homm Huzhou Xisai Shan, China that just opened their doors October this year. They joined the brand’s debut hotel Homm Bliss Southbeach Patong in Phuket, Thailand. After Bangkok and Huzhou, more Homm properties are set to open next year in Bali, Indonesia, and Luang Prabang, Laos.

Homm, one of five new brands within Banyan Tree Group’s growing ecosystem of concepts, provides a sensible lifestyle and a globally diverse experience while embodying the feeling of home. Ideal for families, couples, and business executives alike, guests will find ease in reliable services, signature facilities, communal dining options, and well-designed, price-friendly accommodations elevated by purpose-led, sustainable tourism standards.

Homm’s extrasensibility essentials go beyond answering basic needs, with H2O stations, Grab & Go meal options, and friendly associates known as HOMMATES who possess detailed knowledge about the hotel and destination.

Homm Sukhumvit34 Bangkok

Located in a private residential area on Sukhumvit Road, in the heart of the Thai capital, this 148-room hotel offers modern, bright rooms with a residential look and feel. Each room comes with a rain shower and bathtub, flat screen LED smart IPTV, plus a range of kitchen appliances.

Nearby, travellers can enjoy world-class shopping and dining at Emsphere District’s EmQuartier, The Emporium malls, and the COMMONS shopping complex, or explore the sprawling Benchakitti Park. Alternatively, a complimentary shuttle bus service is available to BTS Phrom Phong and BTS Thonglor. The hotel itself is a serene urban escape complete with an outdoor swimming pool, a fitness centre, and a private onsen with a cold plunge pool and steam room inspired by Japan’s bathhouse culture.

Homm Huzhou Xisai Shan

Sitting at the foot of Xisai mountain in the Wuxing district of Huzhou, this resort integrates landscape, culture, and well-being. Its architecture intertwines waterscape and mountainscape, using symmetrical space in its 116 guest rooms, 26 suites, 30 family rooms, and four villas, as well as two barrier-free rooms, each with a unique theme.

The hotel pays tribute to classical poems of Chinese antiquity through a combination of traditional Chinese language symbols, modern minimalist design techniques, and simplified architectural styles. Inspired by the surrounding waters, well-being facilities are all thoughtfully located by the lake to ensure a serene and rejuvenating experience, while other facilities incorporate elements of water, bamboo, and tea.

ADVERTISEMENTS

Located at the centre of the Yangtze River Delta region, Huzhou is the transportation hub of Shanghai, Hangzhou and Nanjing. While its picturesque Xisai Mountain used to inspire poets back in ancient times, Huzhou has now reinvented itself as a world-class innovation hub.
