Thailand’s INNSiDE Hotel To Celebrate Festive Season With a Bang

BANGKOK (November 1, 2024) – With the season to be merry rapidly approaching, INNSiDE by Meliá Bangkok Sukhumvit is gearing up with exquisite Spanish menus, buffet feasts and a sky-high countdown party, all accompanied by panoramic views of Bangkok’s skyline.

The 208-room urban lifestyle hotel, which debuted in July last year in Bangkok’s lively On Nut neighbourhood with a transparent infinity pool, an authentic Spanish tapas bar and integrated co-working spaces, will stage its “Feliz Festiva” program from Dec. 24, 2024 to Jan. 1, 2025.

Perched on the hotel’s uppermost floors – the 33^rd and 34^th floors – LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar will take diners on a culinary pilgrimage of Spain with delectable set menus crafted by Madrid-born chef Juan Ignacio García Racionero. The menus will be served in two sessions per night from 6-8pm and 9pm-11pm on Dec. 24 and 31. Wine pairing is optional.

LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar’s Christmas Eve set menu kicks off with ‘scallops with caramelised onion and Iberian ham’ and ‘crab cannelloni’ followed by ‘beef tenderloin in puff pastry with foie gras and sweet wine sauce’. After ‘traditional Spanish rice with seafood and octopus’, dessert is ‘Spanish crepe with vanilla cream and orange ice cream’.

The New Year’s Eve menu begins with ‘scallops with Iberian ham broth and basil oil’ and ‘smoked salmon blini with tartar sauce’ and ‘classic Spanish salad of lobster, blue crab and salmon roe’. ‘Tenderloin with Spanish sauce and truffle’ and ‘confit baby pork with celery cream, apple and sweet wine’ are rounded out with ‘Mille-Feuille with Catalan cream, meringue cherry and cava sorbet’ for dessert.

With its soaring windows affording spectacular views, all-day dining restaurant The Kites Eatery will serve, under the stewardship of executive chef Katisak Pinkaew, a buffet dinner on Christmas Eve from 6-10pm, New Year’s Eve buffet from 6-11pm and a buffet brunch from 12-3pm on New Year’s Day.

The buffets will brim with all sorts of treats including seafood on ice, salads, cheeses, a Japanese corner with assorted sashimi, BBQ seafood and meats, a carving station, an array of main courses, paella, a chocolate fountain, desserts and more. Free-flow alcohol is optional.

Revellers will bid farewell to 2024 and count down the new year at the Giant Swing Bar for a night of rooftop fun and music from live DJs from 6pm on Dec. 31 until 1am on Jan. 1. With a “Sparkle and Glitter” dress code for gold, silver or black attire, the Rooftop Party’s entry fee is THB 1500 net per person and includes a glass of sparkling wine.

An exclusive “VIP Lounge” table package is available for the countdown party. Ideal for groups of four, the package’s minimum spend is THB 15,000 per table and includes a bottle of sparkling wine.

By night the hotel’s Giant Swing Pool Bar, with a compelling contemporary interpretation of Bangkok’s Brahman structure and an expansive rooftop terrace dotted with outdoor lounges and sunbeds that evoke an Ibiza mood, becomes an upper-floor extension of the 33^rd floor tapas bar. A spectacle unlike any other in Bangkok, tapas bar guests peer into the bottom of the hotel’s infinity pool.
