Crest Collection to open first serviced residence in Asia

“The location really is impossible to beat,” Jean Keijdener, general manager of Ascott in Thailand, which will manage the property, said yesterday.
Thonglor is a residential neighbourhood preferred by Japanese and foreign executives.
The developer is a local investor, Fico Corporation.
The serviced residence with a hotel licence will offer 116 studio and one-bedroom apartments ranging from 27-67 square metres in size.
Bangkok is one of the most dynamic cities in Asia and Thonglor is its most vibrant area.
Metropole is one of four properties bracketed under The Crest Collection label.
The others are Ascott’s Citadines Suites properties in Paris, France that have been renamed to La Clef Louvre Paris, La Clef Champs-Elysees Paris and La Clef Tour Eiffel Paris.
Recently launched in Europe, The Crest Collection is a new selection of some of Ascott’s serviced residences.
With more than 30 years of experience in managing properties worldwide, The Ascott Limited, a member of CapitaLand, is the global leader in branded serviced residences with more than 290 properties in 100 cities spanning more than 25 countries across the Americas, Asia-Pacific, Europe and the Middle East.
It operates three brands – Ascott, Citadines and Somerset.
“It is testament to our commitment to Thailand and our faith in Bangkok that we have chosen the Metropole as the first development in Asia to be branded as The Crest Collection property,” he said.
During the introductory period, the property is offering a special deal for daily guests at Bt2,599. Room rates for long-stay guests will be disclosed soon.
