Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa debuts new MICE hardware

HILTON Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa has added a new events space to its MICE inventory in a bid to win more regional business.

The 180m2 Andaman Room, which can be divided in two, seats up to 130 people in theatre setting and includes an adjoining 66m2 sheltered outdoor area.

General manager David Prince said: “With the addition of the Andaman Room, the Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa is one of the most comprehensive MICE venues in South-east Asia.”

Jens Frank-Mikkelsen, director of business development, told TTGmice eWeekly the property was targeting a range of source markets including the US, Australia, Europe, China, Singapore and Hong Kong, as well as the domestic trade. Key sectors include banking and finance, healthcare, transportation, logistics, industry associations and international government agencies.

“To add further value to MICE organisers, the hotel is now a part of Hilton Worldwide’s Connect+ website, a service which provides industry-leading tools for meeting planners and allows customers to connect with Hilton event experts and sales representatives,” Frank-Mikkelsen said. “We also have a special meeting package that is valid from June 1 to December 30, 2014.”

The Andaman Room’s launch follows last year’s renovation of the property’s MICE facilities, which saw its Grand Ballroom upgraded to an 850m2 space, making it one of the island’s largest meeting rooms.
