Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok first in Asia-Pacific region to receive Safehotels certification
To attain Safehotels certification, a hotel must demonstrate in principle and practice a thoroughgoing commitment to safety and security. Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok has done precisely that in becoming the first Asia-Pacific hotel to achieve this coveted endorsement. Moreover, Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok likewise is one of only seven Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group hotels to achieve a Premium certificate.
In December 2014, Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group signed an agreement with globally recognized consultancy Safehotels Alliance AB, making Carlson Rezidor the first major international hotel group using the acclaimed independent certification program. Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok’s participation is the 15th of 70 in a series of planned certifications within Carlson Rezidor. The hotel completed the Safehotels official certification process and, having far exceeded all evaluation criteria, was awarded Premium level certification.
Among reasons cited by Safehotels in conferring Premium certification were:
1) Auditor assessment that Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok’s documentation and record keeping are equal to the best Safehotels has seen anywhere in the world. For example, documents relating to fire drills, first aid and indeed all matters pertaining to safety and security were deemed particularly outstanding.
2) Physical structure including overall building design as well as components such as control room/fire control panel, emergency response room and generator room were rated world class.
Peter Schuler, General Manager of Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok, is understandably delighted at the assessment. “It is a great honor to attain this type of certification. Our hotel is in a very busy downtown area, so we can never be too cautious. We take safety and security seriously, and we’re especially pleased we’ve not just met requirements but far exceeded them. That guests are safe and secure is all part of our one hundred percent satisfaction guarantee.”
Hans Kanold, CEO of Safehotels Alliance AB, noted, “Safehotels certification confirms that the hotel focuses on key elements of guest security relating to personal property, and that it has appropriate response plans if ever there is an accident or any kind of emergency. The certificate shows the hotel is sincere in its guests’ personal well-being.” He added, “Being independently audited and certified yearly by Safehotels strengthen the value of that commitment immensely. The Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group has taken an already high level of internal precautions one step further by working with Safehotels.”
In 2015, more than 70 selected Rezidor hotels around the world will be assessed by Safehotels. Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok is rightly proud of being the first Rezidor hotel in Asia Pacific to achieve certification.
