After the pandemic, travel trends have changed and travellers now tend to stay in hotels that have implemented eco-friendly and sustainable practices. The Conrad Bangkok operated by Hilton Worldwide is one such hotel that can attract environmentally conscious tourists because it is committed to sustainable practices including reducing waste and connecting to local communities.

Located on Wireless Road, guests at the Conrad Bangkok have convenient access to public transportation, parks, shopping venues and other entertainment venues. Upon entering their room, guests are welcomed with a handmade elephant silk doll that they can take home. The cute elephant doll, which represents the national animal of Thailand, is a project the Conrad Hotel has collaborated on with local communities in Chiang Mai since 2004. This handmade souvenir makes guests happy as well as provides local people employment opportunities.
