137 Pillars House Chiang Mai debuted in the highly coveted Travel + Leisure (USA) Magazine’s 2012 It List of the 50 best new hotels, as selected by T+L editors. The seventh annual It List, covering 29 countries, including nine properties in the U.S. and Canada, is featured on www.TravelandLeisure.com now, and in the June issue of Travel + Leisure, available on newsstands May 18.
The list is composed of six categories: City, Rustic, Design, Resort, Beach, and Renovation, and includes brand-new properties as well as a handful of hotels that underwent renovations in the last year.
Nancy Novogrod, editor in chief of Travel + Leisure said, “With more than 3,000 hotel openings in the last year, selecting the properties for our 2012 It List was a particularly demanding assignment. After close consideration, the 50 hotels and resorts our editors arrived at not only throw a spotlight on notable up-and-coming destinations, but also highlight some long-time favorites with dazzling new places to stay.”
137 Pillars House was one of 7 hotels selected in Asia and the only one in Thailand. “This in indeed a considerable honour and a tribute to the owners, SilverNeedle Management Team who manage the property, and the dedicated staff on property”. We are extremely proud to be included in this elite group of hotels, said Manfred Ilg, General Manager.
