DELIGHTFUL HOLIDAY PACKAGES ON OFFER AT THE PENINSULA BANGKOK FOR EASTER AND SONGKRAN - 2

Songkran, the traditional Thai New Year that falls in mid April, is a week-long festival of merit- making, the gathering together of families and friends, and nationwide celebrations. Thais visit and pay respect to their elders, go to the temple to pray and give food to monks, and cleanse Buddha images using water mixed with Thai fragrances. Water becomes a symbol of cleansing and renewal and a central theme of Songkran. The act of water throwing that is synonymous with Songkran is traditionally a gentle pouring of water on the shoulder of elders, family and friends. While this version of water throwing is still practiced today, it has also transformed into full scale water battles where anybody and everybody is considered fair game for a drenching by water gun, hose or bucket.

The Songkran Package is available between 10 and 30 April 2012 for a minimum three-night stay, priced at THB 8,600 plus tax and service charge per room per night. Included in the package are:

- Accommodation in a Grand Deluxe Room

- Daily buffet breakfast for one or two persons at River Cafe and Terrace

- One-way airport transfer by private limousine

- Set lunch for two persons at The Lobby

- A 30-minute spa treatment for two persons with a choice of either a salt and oil scrub or a neck and shoulder massage per stay.

ESPA Enzyme Peel Facials use natural ingredients to regenerate and smoothe skin for a more youthful complexion

Bangkok, Thailand -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/11/2011 -- The Peninsula Bangkok has introduced two special new facials to the treatment menu at its renowned Peninsula Spa by ESPA - the Enzyme Peel Facial and Anti-Ageing Enzyme Peel Facial. This luxury Bangkok hotel (http://www.peninsula.com/Bangkok/en/default.aspx) is the second Peninsula property to offer the facials, which are already available at The Peninsula Hong Kong.

The development of the facials was inspired by the desire for flawless, ageless and smooth skin. They utilize specially developed natural peels and masks packed with ingredients derived from lactic acid, glycolic and alpha hydroxyl acids (AHAs) and marine extracts. All natural ingredients are harvested in a sustainable manner without degradation to the environment and are approved by Ecocert, one of the largest certification agencies in the world for sustainable sourcing and organic development.

The one-hour Enzyme Peel Facial is priced at THB 3,800 plus tax and service charge. This powerful facial dramatically smoothes, softens and evens skin tone. After a thorough skin analysis, the facial incorporates steam and a deep sonic brush cleanse, preparing the skin for an application of the highly active Professional Enzyme Peel. Containing optimum concentrations of AHAs, pumpkin enzymes and naturally-sourced fruit acids, this facial aids the removal of dead skin cells, boosts cell regeneration and helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

The 1-hour-50-minute Anti-Ageing Enzyme Peel Facial is priced at THB 5,400 plus tax and service charge. An effective facial that delivers immediate results by reducing pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, the treatment incorporates steam and a deep sonic brush cleanse, followed by an application of the Professional Enzyme Peel. Containing the maximum levels of completely natural fruit acids and AHAs, the peel dramatically aids the removal of dead skin cells and boosts cell regeneration, revealing a more youthful looking complexion. A deep facial massage is followed by an application of the professional lifting and firming mask to leave skin smooth, toned and luminous.

The Peninsula Spa by ESPA, at one of the prestigious 5 star hotels in Bangkok (http://www.peninsula.com/Bangkok/en/Accommodation/default.aspx), offers a deeply personalised spa experience like nowhere else in Bangkok, located in the hotel's three-storey Thai-colonial building. The 19,000-square-foot (1,774-square-metre) spa features 14 treatment rooms and four suites – two private spa suites and two river private spa suites – as well as a tea lounge and relaxation rooms, creating a full-service oasis in the heart of the city that is a spa destination in itself.
