The Royal Cliff Hotels Group consists of 4 hotels and a multipurpose convention centre between Jomtien and South Pattaya, Thailand, occupying 64 acres (26 ha) of parkland overlooking the eastern shore of the Gulf of Thailand.
History
In 1973, Royal Cliff Beach Terrace opened with 106 rooms and a year later the Royal Cliff Beach Hotel came into existence.[1]
Late in 1999, a major addition was made to the resort's meeting, incentive, convention and exhibition facilities. This was the multipurpose stand–alone meeting venue, Pattaya Exhibition and Convention Hall,[2] with the capacity of catering to up to 8,000 delegates.
Royal Cliff Hotels have been the setting for some important meetings in the region,[3][4] In 1991, the resort played host to the Cambodian Peace talks; in 1997, the hotel was the venue for the drafting of the new Thai constitution; and in 2003, it hosted the APEC Tourism Working Group, attended by senior tourism officials from 21 member countries.[5]
In April 2009, an ASEAN conference had to be canceled unexpectedly and immediately, and Asian leaders evacuated, some by helicopter, after hundreds of protesters stormed and entered the facility.[6] The protest occurred on the last day of the ASEAN+3 meeting, hosted by Thailand's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, bringing it to an abrupt end, but not before delegates had successfully concluded several important meetings during the first two days of the gathering. Delegation leaders were escorted off the property and the protesters dispersed. No one was injured during the protest.[7]
Notable hotel guests
From H.M the King of Sweden to former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and actors Roger Moore, William Hurt, and Britt Ekland, numerous VIPs, entertainers and heads of state have visited the Royal Cliff over the last 30 years.[8] Many tennis stars including Nikolay Davydenko, Mikhail Youzhny, Nicolas Kiefer, and Paradorn Srichaphan have regularly stayed at the Royal Cliff and practiced on the resort's tennis courts.
Other notable royals and heads of state who have stayed at the resort: HRH King Albert II of Belgium, HM The Sultan of Brunei Azrinaz Mazhar Hakim, HM the King of Swaziland, HM King Norodom Sihanouk & Queen Norodom Monineath Sihanouk of Cambodia, HRH Prince & Princess Akishino of Japan, The Prime Minister of Singapore Lee Kuan Yew and Lee Hsien Loong, President of the Philippines Maria Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, President of South Korea Lee Myung-bak, Prime Minister of Cambodia Hun Sen, and Prime Minister of Thailand Abhisit Vejjajiva.
