Haven’t Met Silom actually a great place to meet

Haven’t Met Silom actually a great place to meet

Hip new hospitality brand Haven’t Met offers comfortable yet practical city stays with integrated technology that connects guests of Haven’t Met Silom with each other and with city experiences.

Every room features 4G connected, interactive smart tablets loaded with a custom app. They have a dedicated virtual chat-room for guests to meet up in and plan activities and trips around the capital. There’s a map, hotel directory, menus for the restaurant and room service and even music streaming via Joox. 
Haven’t Met Silom boasts 70 stylish rooms on nine floors. The Awesome room (20 square metres) and Sensational (24sqm) offer comfort and convenience with practical layouts enhanced by quality furnishings and fittings. 
Room rates start at Bt2,500-plus. 
The Cloud 9 Restaurant offers guests a daily breakfast buffet complemented by a-la-carte Thai-fusion dishes, with generous portions and affordable prices. 
There’s also the 24-hour High Lounge with complimentary soft drinks and snacks. 
And the Cloud 9 Casual Rooftop is the hotel’s stylish al-fresco pool bar with great drinks, creative Thai-fusion food and stunning city views. 
“We invested Bt120 million in this project targeting millennial travellers from around the world,” says Chayaphon Hunrungroj, chairman of Sincere Capital Land. 
“Thailand has a lot of new hotels launching every year, but not many of them target the real needs of millennial travellers. As a new Thai brand, we aim to offer affordable, experience-led stays. Our target occupancy is 80 per cent in the first year and we expect to reach 90 per cent in the second year.” 
Patrick Pratummanee, executive director of Haven't Met Hotels, explains the inspiration behind the concept. 
“Today’s young, affluent travellers are looking for practical comfort in a convenient location. They need a base to explore the city and they want to know the best things to see, to do, and what’s new. They also want to share their travel experience with their social network and make new friends.” 
Haven’t Met Silom offers these benefits and the hotel app lets guests plan their trip together before they check in, share experiences during the stay, and upload memories after they leave. 
The app also gives them the inside track on what Bangkok has to offer, and they can explore the city with a choice of specially selected travel experiences that can be booked directly on the tablet. 
“The experiences are what really connect guests to Bangkok, so we’ve selected the best and partnered with a range of operators to offer a wide selection of memorable excursions and adventures,” adds Pratummanee. “The experiences are all carefully chosen so that travellers can really get under the skin of the city.” 
Haven’t Met Experiences include everything from sampling street food to the finest gourmet dining. Guests can choose to visit a pop-up market or explore the city’s sophisticated retail malls. They can relax with a sublime spa treatment to soothe their muscles after a session of muay thai training, then head out on a party night to the city’s coolest rooftop bars. 
The company expects to break even in five years and the team at Haven’t Met Hotels is currently exploring new locations in Thailand to launch owned and managed hotels.
