Ever since it first opened its doors in December 2021, The Standard, Hua Hin has set a high bar for what stylish beach resorts can (and should) be, making it no surprise that it recently became one of only 17 new hotels across Asia and Australia — and, more notably, the only one in Thailand — to make it onto Condé Nast Traveler’s 2022 “Hot List,” which recognizes the most exciting and can’t-miss new resorts across the globe. According to Condé Nast Traveler, The Standard, Hua Hin injects a “dose of youthful energy” into the beachside town.

As it’s the only Thai resort to be on this year’s list, Amar Lalvani, Executive Chairman of Standard International, said: “[T]his is truly a humbling honor. As Thailand reopens its doors to international visitors, we look forward to welcoming guests from around the world to discover Hua Hin and our beautiful seaside retreat.”
