Formerly the Hua Hin Railway Hotel, one of the classic hotels of the East, the Centara Grand Beach Resort & Villas Hua Hin was constructed in 1923 and has fully retained its old-world charm. Centara Hotels & Resorts acquired the lovely old property in 1985, and with every sensitivity towards its original elegance has extended and upgraded the hotel, which stands on 16 hectares of beachfront land amongst topiary gardens that are one of the great local landmarks.
The resort is situated directly on Hua Hin beach, just 190 kilometres south of Bangkok, direct access to Hua Hin town, a glimpse of the local street life and shopping is only steps from the resort, and surrounded by six 18-hole golf courses.
