It's no surprise that the Akaryn Hotel Group (AHG) is making waves in Thailand. Its environmental conscience, philanthropic approach to hospitality and innovative ethos – when it comes to 'barefoot luxury', is down to its visionary founder and managing director Anchalika Kijkanakorn. (Credit: Akaryn)Under Anchalika’s leadership, AHG has also developed the Ayurah wellness brand, a holistic health concept, as well as its Italics restaurants – standalone Italian-inspired dining experiences in Bangkok and at Akyra Manor Chiang Mai. Akyra Tas Sukhumvit Bangkok is the first single-use plastic-free hotel in Asia. Aiming to lead the charge with single-use plastics, the whole group is planning to become a single-use plastic free hotel company by 2020.
