The new spaces are also sustainability-focussed
Royal Orchid Sheraton Riverside Hotel Bangkok seeks to play a pivotal role in the future of Thailand’s MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) sector in 2025 and beyond.
The hotel recently completed a comprehensive renovation of its conference and banqueting facilities, adding an entire floor of riverside meeting space.
Royal Orchid Sheraton Riverside Hotel Bangkok invites professional meeting planners and corporate groups to elevate their events in its newly reimagined MICE facilities, which comprise 2,800 square meters of total floor space, including two ballrooms and 22 light-filled meeting spaces, all on the same level and framing views of the “River of Kings”.
Exceptional facilities
The expansive Royal Orchid Sheraton Ballroom, overlooking the undulations of Bangkok’s iconic waterway, can host up to 1,150 people for the grandest of gatherings, including major conferences, weddings, gala dinners and award ceremonies.
A spectacular 22-meter-long LED screen will make a striking impact to enhance all events.
Alternatively, the fully flexible Riverside Ballroom can cater for up to 320 delegates, or be divided into multiple smaller sections to meet the unique needs of each group.
At the same time, several naturally-lit meeting rooms can host sessions for between 12 and 150 guests, including business meetings, team training, product launches, media briefings and more.
Waterfront terraces also provide the backdrop for glamorous photo shoots, cocktail receptions and celebratory events.
Connecting responsibly
Meeting planners can “Connect Responsibly” at Royal Orchid Sheraton Riverside Hotel Bangkok, in line with Marriott Bonvoy Events’ new sustainable MICE program.
Every event hosted at the hotel will be provided with a Meeting Impact Report to track their emissions, which can then be offset by purchasing carbon credits for a range of environmental projects in association with Marriott’s partner, South Pole.
With measures to tackle water usage, food waste, plastics and emissions, organizers can be assured their event will have a minimum impact on the planet, while leaving a lasting impression on its guests.
This commitment to sustainability has helped the hotel achieve a series of honors, including Green Key certification and the ASEAN MICE Venue Standard, which was created by the Association of South East Asian Nations to ensure the consistent quality of meeting products and protect the region’s natural and cultural resources.
These certificates form part of Marriott International’s Sustainability and Social Impact Goals, which include global targets to reduce water use by 15 percent, carbon intensity by 30 percent, waste to landfill by 45 percent, and food waste by 50 percent by the end of 2025.
