Safety Measures

We would like to reassure you of our commitment to the health and safety of all our guests and staff. All hotels under Centara Hotels & Resorts continue to follow strict safety protocols and adhere to rigorous health and hygiene procedures under our comprehensive and certified Centara Complete Care programme.

In light of the recent heightened restrictions within Thailand, and to comply with government regulations, certain services and facilities at our hotels in Thailand are operating with revised schedules, whilst other facilities have been forced to temporarily close. The restrictions vary by province and are in place until the end of April, but are subject to possible extension, so we advise guests to check the regulations and restrictions in their intended destination before travelling. Alternatively, you can of course contact the hotel directly. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

Our latest policy regarding rebooking and cancellation is as follows:
