“My team and I are looking incredibly forward to the debut of Meliá Pattaya Hotel and to delivering Meliá’s warm Spanish hospitality, distinctive passion for service, and focus on the customer’s wellbeing at our one-of-a-kind hotel in an unbeatable location,” Meliá Pattaya Hotel’s General Manager Javier Gimeno commented.
