The service also meets international standards, ensuring a unique experience that stays true to the Amari brand."

Yuthachai Charanachitta, CEO of ONYX Hospitality Group, stated, "Amari Vientiane is the second Amari hotel in Laos, following the opening of Amari Vang Vieng in 2018. This marks a significant testament to the trust the Tang Chareon (TCR) Group has placed in ONYX Hospitality Group and the Amari brand. It also underscores ONYX Hospitality Group's commitment to expanding its business in Laos and throughout Southeast Asia. In line with our vision of becoming 'The Best Medium-Sized Hospitality Management Company in Southeast Asia,' and as experts with a deep understanding of the region's tourism industry, we are confident that Amari Vientiane will swiftly establish itself as a successful hotel, earning the trust of travellers both in Laos and internationally."

In addition to the rich culture and charm of the Mekong River at Amari Vientiane, ONYX Hospitality Group has also opened its first property in Laos, Amari Vang Vieng. This hotel, nestled in the mountains and along the Song River, is located in a city often regarded as the second gem of Laos. It offers another perfect destination for a vacation surrounded by breathtaking nature. Vang Vieng is now easily accessible by high-speed train, just over an hour from Vientiane city centre, making it more convenient for travellers from around the world to experience this beautiful city.

"Amari Vang Vieng" was launched in 2018 on the banks of the Song River, the heart of Vang Vieng. Featuring over 160 rooms in various styles, including Superior Rooms and Executive One-Bedroom Suites, the hotel blends contemporary design with Lao craftsmanship, reflecting Amari's signature style. The rooms are spacious and airy, with tall windows that allow guests to fully immerse themselves in the peaceful mountain views while staying connected to the world with high-speed Wi-Fi and a 40-inch interactive TV.

Importantly, Vang Vieng offers a wide range of exciting attractions and activities. Visitors can take a hot air balloon ride for a breathtaking view of the city, hike up to Pha Ngern to catch the stunning sunrise and sunset, swim in the crystal-clear emerald waters of the Blue Lagoon, or explore the natural Tham Pu Kham cave, famous for its stalactites and stalagmites. A special highlight is Pu Kham, a golden crab believed to bring good luck if seen. The Tham Jang cave is also a popular check-in spot for travellers. For adventure seekers, try tubing through Tham Nam or kayaking along the Song River, offering a unique view of the local way of life on both riverbanks. After a day full of adventure, guests can head back to the warmth and comfort of their hotel.
