Campaign Overview
The festive season remains a key driver for ONYX’s hotels, serviced apartments, and residences across Asia Pacific, boosting occupancy, F&B performance, and guest engagement. By combining brand-led storytelling with localised experiences, “Beyond the Festivities” is designed to deepen loyalty, support community connections, and showcase ONYX’s growing regional footprint.
“At ONYX Hospitality Group, we celebrate the festive season with purpose,” said Yuthachai Charanachitta, Chief Executive Officer of ONYX Hospitality Group. “Our “Beyond the Festivities” campaign honours this joyous occasion as a time to bring people together, foster a sense of belonging, and extend our support to the communities in which we live and work. This season is not only about sharing moments with our guests but also about giving back in meaningful ways.”
