RUSTIC RIVER AMBIENCE

The Rose Garden marks its 42nd anniversary by adopting a new name, Rose Garden Riverside, to convey visitors a more genuine feel of the traditional Thai way of life by the river.

The resort in Nakhon Pathom has undergone a major facelift. Apart from the name change, it has a new logo symbolised by a carp while the conference and meeting facilities have also been upgraded. Guests can now hold meetings on board a rice barge, in an antique Chinese pavilion by a lake or a traditional Thai house.

A host of 12 interactive Thai cultural activities have been introduced such as Thai classical music and dance, fruit and vegetable carving, garland making, workshop on ceramics, Thai martial arts, silk weaving and more. Guests are welcome to join them.

The Arusaya Spa is there to provide healing and wellness therapy based on traditional Thai wisdom.

In March, the resort will start renovation of its 77-room Phetchkasem Wing which will be completed by the end of the year.
