A Historic Milestone for Chiang Rai and Thai Hospitality
The Riverie by Katathani, Chiang Rai, has proudly made history by achieving three distinguished honors at the Thailand Tourism Awards 2025 (Kinaree Awards)—the nation’s most prestigious recognition in the travel industry.
Hall of Fame – The highest honor in Thailand’s tourism sector, awarded this year to only six establishments nationwide. The Riverie is the sole recipient in the accommodation category.
Thailand Tourism Sustainability Award – Accommodation
Thailand Tourism Excellence Award – Accommodation (Resort)
Organized by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) since 1996, the Thailand Tourism Awards—often referred to as the “Oscars of Thai Tourism”—recognize outstanding establishments that elevate the quality of tourism and build confidence among international travelers. The award is symbolized by the Kinaree statue, representing beauty, virtue, and heartfelt Thai service.
Winning these three awards is not only a reflection of The Riverie’s commitment to world-class service but also a reaffirmation of our guiding philosophy: “Sustainability in Process.” From enhancing operational standards and staff development to environmental stewardship and strong community engagement, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do.
The Hall of Fame recognition marks The Riverie as a true jewel of Chiang Rai—refined and celebrated on the national stage.
We are deeply grateful for this honor and the trust of our guests. This achievement is only the beginning—we remain committed to raising the standards of Thai tourism with sustainability and excellence at our core.
