London, June 2025: Amari Bangkok is proud to announce the appointment of Mr. Michel Scheffers as its new General Manager. A flagship of the ONYX Hospitality Group portfolio and one of Bangkok’s most established hotels, Amari Bangkok has long been a favourite among leisure, business, and MICE travellers. In 2024, the hotel proudly celebrates its 30th anniversary, marking three decades of excellence in Thai hospitality.
With an illustrious career spanning over 20 years in the hospitality industry, Michel brings a wealth of experience and an unwavering commitment to excellence to his new role. Michel has been a key leader within ONYX Hospitality Group, a leading name in Southeast Asia’s hospitality scene, known for its portfolio of hotels, resorts, serviced apartments, and residences, for nearly four years, most recently serving as Area General Manager Southern Thailand, overseeing Amari Phuket and Amari Vogue Krabi. Amari Bangkok is confident that under Michel's leadership, the hotel will continue to uphold the highest standards of service and guest satisfaction.
Blending timeless Thai traditions with contemporary luxury, Amari Bangkok offers an elegant escape in the heart of the city. Its refined interiors are thoughtfully infused with local charm, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance for guests.
Centrally located in the dynamic Ratchaprasong district, the hotel places guests steps from some of Bangkok’s best shopping, dining, and cultural attractions. From the Platinum Fashion Mall to CentralWorld and Siam Square, world-class retail is just across the street. With the BTS Skytrain within walking distance, guests also enjoy quick access to Sukhumvit, Silom, Thonglor, and both international airports. Local highlights like the Erawan Shrine and Bangkok’s historic Old Town are also easily reached.
Dining is a true highlight at Amari Bangkok, with a rich array of culinary experiences that reflect the property's commitment to authenticity and innovation. ChomSindh, one of the latest openings, celebrates Thailand’s rich coastal traditions with fresh, sustainably sourced seafood served in a setting inspired by classic Thai shophouses. Nila, also a new addition, brings the soulful spices of India’s coastline to Bangkok, weaving in Portuguese influences for a bold, contemporary twist. For classic comfort, Prego Bangkok serves refined Italian favourites in a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere, while the lively Amaya Food Gallery delivers a global culinary tour with interactive cooking stations and vibrant street market energy.
After a day in the city, Breeze Spa offers a personalised escape. Centred around the belief that happiness fuels wellness, the spa’s signature Mood Massages are tailored to how guests want to feel—rejuvenated, serene, or completely invigorated. With soothing therapies, aromatic oils, and skilled hands, it’s the perfect reset in the heart of the city.
With its elevated culinary offering, exceptional location, and a legacy of heartfelt Thai hospitality, Amari Bangkok continues to set the standard as one of the capital’s leading destinations. Under Michel Scheffers’ leadership, the hotel looks ahead to its next chapter, with a continued commitment to the high standards of service, innovation, and guest experience that have long defined Amari Bangkok.
