These wins spotlight the group’s innovative, value-driven approach to smart, inclusive, and sustainable hospitality.
Arawana Group was named the winner in two categories at the TDM Travel Trade Excellence Awards 2025 – Thailand, recognised for Arawana Express Sukhumvit 22 and Arawana Regency North Pattaya.
Named Emerging Hotel of the Year, Arawana Express Sukhumvit 22 is a smart, budget-friendly hotel located in the heart of Bangkok’s Sukhumvit district. Situated near Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, Benjakitti Park, and major transport links, the hotel provides outstanding value for both leisure and business travellers through modern rooms, smart features, and unbeatable accessibility.
The hotel integrates a suite of smart hospitality innovations — including wireless charging bedside tables, light-up makeup mirrors, smart TVs, digital booking and self check-in systems, as well as dedicated laundry and workspace amenities for long-stay guests. It also proudly holds the Travel Proud (LGBTQ+) Badge on Booking.com, affirming its inclusive approach to hospitality.
Since its launch in 2024, Arawana Express Sukhumvit 22 has achieved exceptional results, recording almost 90% occupancy in its second month of operation and being recognised as Best Rated 3-Star Hotel on Agoda (July 2025). It maintains near-perfect guest ratings, including 4.9 on TripAdvisor, 9.4 on Hotels.com, and 9.4 on Traveloka.
“These achievements establish the hotel as a standout performer in Bangkok’s economy hospitality sector,” Arawana Group stated.
Meanwhile, Arawana Regency North Pattaya received the Hotel Concept of the Year award for its pioneering multi-brand concept that unites four accommodation styles — Arawana Regency, Arawana Residence, Arawana Express, and Arawana Hostel — under one destination.
Located near Pattaya Beach and Terminal 21, the property offers guests comfort, affordability, and community-style stays all in one location. “Arawana Regency North Pattaya is amongst the first multi-brand hospitality concepts in Pattaya, combining hotel, residence, express and hostel experiences within one destination,” the group added.
The “four-in-one” approach provides flexibility for families, backpackers, and business travellers alike, offering facilities rarely found at this price point — including a kids’ club, swimming pool, and full breakfast. The property also integrates forward-thinking solutions for the budget segment, such as EV charging poles for electric vehicles, digital check-in, and smart room features.
Opened within one month of its conversion, Arawana Regency North Pattaya quickly established its presence, becoming Top Value Rated on Agoda, earning a perfect 10/10 score on Traveloka, and boasting a 5.0 Google rating for its Iris Restaurant with over 1,800 reviews.
Beyond hospitality excellence, Arawana Group contributes to communities by creating jobs and supporting local neighbourhoods, youth developments, and tourism ecosystems through sustainable, value-driven practices.
