The Lebua hotel in Bangkok has just celebrated Loy Krathong for the very first time! For the past 20 years, their celebrations have evolved, and this year marks a significant turning point. The hotel is embracing a fresh, vibrant spirit of inclusivity, diversity, and togetherness, setting the stage for a new era of fun-filled festivities.
Loy Krathong, the beautiful Thai festival of lights, is all about letting go of past misfortunes and sending wishes for the future by floating Krathongs (decorative boats) on water. This year, we took the celebration to new heights by inviting everyone to join in the joy, regardless of background or culture, reflecting our new commitment to celebrating what makes us unique and united.
From colourful decorations to delightful Thai delicacies, their first-ever Loy Krathong celebration at lebua was filled with excitement, laughter, and unforgettable memories. They have turned a new leaf. You can expect more festivals, vibrant decorations, delicious food, and good times throughout the year!
Ms. Narawadee Bualert, Owner and CEO of Lebua Hotels and Resorts, shared her ambitious vision for the future of the brand: “Our goal is to elevate this property to unprecedented heights, ensuring it remains a leading force in Bangkok’s luxury hotel landscape. Together with my dedicated management team, I am embarking on a journey to reinvent Lebua, creating a legacy that will be celebrated both locally and globally. This transformation will be more than just visible; it will be a defining moment for our brand, setting new standards of excellence in hospitality for years to come. From its very inception, Lebua has been synonymous with luxury and innovation, and we are determined to uphold that reputation, continuously raising the bar for what luxury hospitality should be.”
Rajan Khurana, General Manager at Lebua Hotel, Bangkok, expressed, “At Lebua, we believe that the true essence of life lies in the joy of coming together. It’s about creating an environment where people from all walks of life can unite, celebrate, and embrace the beauty of diversity. This year, with our first-ever Loy Krathong celebration, we’ve turned over a new leaf—embracing inclusivity and nurturing a deeper sense of community. Our goal is for everyone to feel welcomed, valued, and part of the Lebua family.”
He added “This is just the beginning. Moving forward, we are thrilled to bring even more festivals, celebrations, and opportunities for fun and connection. We look forward to sharing these moments as one big family, not just celebrating the big milestones, but cherishing the little moments that make life truly meaningful.
