Bangkok, September 2026 – ONYX Hospitality Group, a leading management company specialising in hotels, resorts, serviced apartments and luxury residences, is celebrating a series of prestigious accolades across Asia Pacific, recognising achievements spanning hospitality excellence, industry confidence and workplace culture.
As ONYX Hospitality Group marks its 60th anniversary in 2026, the latest recognition reflects the continued development of the Group and its portfolio, combining more than six decades of Thai hospitality expertise with a contemporary approach tailored to the evolving needs of travellers, partners and team members across the region.
At Group level, ONYX Hospitality Group has been voted Best Local Hotel Brand – Thailand for the second consecutive year at the 35th Annual TTG Travel Awards 2026.
The award was voted for by readers of TTG Asia, TTG China, TTG India, TTGmice, TTG-BTmice China, TTGassociations and TTG Asia Luxury, representing travel and tourism professionals across key markets throughout Asia Pacific.
Receiving the recognition for a second consecutive year demonstrates the strength of ONYX Hospitality Group’s relationships with the travel industry and its continued commitment to delivering value for both guests and trade partners.
The accolade also supports the Group’s long-term vision “To be the Best Medium-sized Hospitality Management Company in Asia Pacific”, as it continues to strengthen its regional presence and expand its portfolio across priority markets.
Oriental Residence Bangkok Celebrates Third Consecutive MICHELIN Key
At property level, Oriental Residence Bangkok has once again been awarded One MICHELIN Key in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide hotel selection, marking the third consecutive year that the luxury Bangkok property has received the distinction.
Having been recognised in 2024, 2025 and now 2026, the achievement highlights the consistency of the experience delivered by Oriental Residence Bangkok and its team.
The MICHELIN Key distinction recognises hotels that offer particularly outstanding stays, considering factors including architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, personality and character, value for the experience and contribution to their destination.
The latest accolade further demonstrates ONYX Hospitality Group’s expertise in managing distinctive hospitality concepts and delivering consistently high standards across its portfolio.
Amari Colombo Recognised as a Great Place To Work®
Recognition has also extended to the people behind the guest experience, with Amari Colombo achieving Great Place To Work® Certification for August 2026 to August 2027.
The hotel achieved an impressive 91% Trust Index™ score, providing independent recognition of the positive workplace culture and employee experience established at the property.
The Great Place To Work assessment considers employees’ experiences across areas including credibility, respect, fairness, pride and camaraderie, providing an important measure of organisational culture from the perspective of those working within the business.
For ONYX Hospitality Group, the achievement reflects the importance placed on its people as the foundation of the guest experience. Creating workplaces in which colleagues feel valued, supported and able to develop is an important part of building strong hotel teams and delivering consistently warm and intuitive hospitality.
Recognition Across the ONYX Hospitality Group Portfolio
Together, the latest accolades demonstrate recognition across three important areas of ONYX Hospitality Group’s business: confidence from the regional travel trade, excellence in the guest experience and a strong workplace culture.
They also come during a milestone year for the Group. Celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2026, ONYX Hospitality Group has evolved from its Thai roots into an established hospitality management company with a growing footprint across Asia Pacific.
While the Group continues to expand, its approach remains grounded in the qualities that have long defined Thai hospitality – warmth, generosity, creativity and an intuitive understanding of how to make people feel genuinely welcome.
These qualities are increasingly being expressed through contemporary design, technology, local experiences and personalisation, enabling individual properties and brands to retain their own identities while benefiting from ONYX Hospitality Group’s regional expertise and management capabilities.
The Group’s portfolio encompasses a range of brands and hospitality concepts across Asia Pacific, including Amari, OZO, Shama and Oriental Residence, each responding to different traveller needs and market segments.
As ONYX Hospitality Group enters its next chapter, the latest industry recognition provides further momentum for its continued growth across the region, while reinforcing the Group’s focus on creating meaningful experiences for guests, strong partnerships with the travel industry and positive environments for the people who deliver its hospitality every day.
