Happy New Year! Magnificent views from Xennya Terrace@Holiday Inn Dubai ...

New Year celebrations – Thai style - at The Royal Budha, Holiday Inn Dubai - Al Barsha’s award winning fine dining Thai restaurant Striking cuisine was on the menu at The Royal Budha on 13th April . Our team of native Thai chefs devised a splendid array of authentic Thai celebratory dishes to mark the traditional New Year of Thailand. The What’s On 2014 Award Winner for favourite Thai Restaurant certainly didn’t disappoint this “Songkran” Songkran is the grandest of all Thai festivals to commemorate the New Year, a time when houses are cleaned and decorated with flowers and flags, and the famous Water Fight takes place throughout the country with splashing of water symbolizing cleansing and rejuvenation. Mirroring that celebration, The Royal Budha was in full festival mode on April 13th, offering diners an authentic taste of Songkran created by Thai master chefs who combined heat, spice, citrus, textures and a blend of flavours to surprise and delight. The staff spent many hours specially decorating the restaurant to provide guests with a true Songkran ambience, taking them on a journey back to the streets of Thailand

“Holiday Inn Dubai – Al Barsha goes greener by implementing the use of a waste compactor and bailing machine”

Waste Press or Compactor machines offer fast rewards. Besides the quick return on the investment, compactors can help: Improve staff efficiency Increase productivity Improve sanitation Improve image Improve staff enthusiasm Improve customer service

The Waste-Press has created a cleaner, more sanitary environment for both our staff and guests. Compacted waste is neat and not recognized as garbage by patrons nearby. We are also contributing to the environment as less waste means less impact on the land. #holidayinndubaialbarsha #gogreen #greenengage #showwecare #lifeatihg
