| May 11, 2007 - Dusit is set to enter the rapidly expanding Residence/Serviced
Apartment segment of the hospitality industry as part of a planned expansion
program, both in Thailand and overseas. Projects are currently underway
in Thailand and the Middle East.
In the Middle East, several agreements are scheduled to be confirmed
in May as part of this expansion. The Dusit Residence on The Palm
is intricately Moroccan-inspired in style, comprised of 180 two bedrooms,
three bedrooms and townhouses. These private residences will offer an ideal
location in one of the world�s most dynamic new tourism and residential
developments in Dubai.
The Dusit Residence at Dubai Marina is strategically located and overlooks
the marina itself and provides direct access to the promenade. A total
of 151 units offer penthouse suites and one to three-bedroom apartments,
with a complete range of food and beverage and other complete hotel-style
facilities and services.
The Pearl Coast Premier Hotel Apartments, which opened in early 2007
and is ideally located off Sheikh Zayed Road, provides convenient access
to the Mall of Emirates. Consisting of 48 fully furnished one and
two bedroom apartments, and with a rooftop pool, fitness centre and Dusit
Gourmet, it is already a popular destination for both short and long-stay
guests. |

In Abu Dhabi, plans are underway to launch the Dusit Thani hotel with
593 rooms and suites, complemented by over 400 apartments by Dusit Residences,
to offer a stunning complex of over 1000 accommodation options. This development
is strategically located on Abu Dhabi island in front of Al Jazeerah Sports
Club, and only 5 km away from the International Exhibition Centre. Modern
food and beverage outlets, a full health club, the Devarana Spa, swimming
pool, meeting rooms suitable for conferences and small seminars, and a
dedicated club floor with executive lounge will ensure guests are provided
with everything they need, for their Abu Dhabi stay.
Dusit�s entry into this expanding hospitality sector perfectly complements
the Company�s expansion into the Middle East with its hotel brands.
Dusit Thani Public Company Limited currently comprises 3 hotel brands:
Dusit Hotels & Resorts, the recently launched Dusit brand extension,
D2 hotel + resorts that opened in Chiang Mai, and Royal Princess Hotels
& Resorts. It also operates its own signature Devarana Spa. |
