Centara Hotels & Resorts: Bangkok Convention Centre at CentralWorld

No other capital in Asia manages to combine regional business and commercial eminence with such a colourful and unique culture as Bangkok – Asia's most exciting and vibrant city.

Bangkok is the commercial and transportation hub of South East Asia with direct air connections from major cities all over the world, one of the world's most modern airports, state of the art meeting facilities and landmark hotels - and yet still manages to retain its exciting culture and vibrant lifestyle in a way no other Asian capital has managed. Meeting facilities in Bangkok are amongst the best in the world, but above all else Bangkok is distinguished by perhaps its greatest asset – its people. Friendly and charming, welcoming and always eager to please, the Thai people ensure the success of any event both commercially and socially. Bangkok is also one of the safest cities in the world to visit with, perhaps, the only danger being just how much you spend at the world class shopping malls and local markets once business is over.
