The Royal Cliff Beach Resort announces the introduction of the USB flash drive to distribute promotional materials. The Royal Cliff is a market leader in environmental conservation. One of the first in the Asian hospitality industry to take the initiative of reducing its carbon footprint by using the USB flash drive, the Royal Cliff is reducing the use of printed materials for public relations and sales.
Facts and Figures: The Carbon Footprint
On average, each year, the Royal Cliff Beach Resort participates in 6 international MICE trade shows as well as 8 road shows abroad. At each show, we prepare and distribute approximately 20 kilograms of paper-based promotional sales literature. The impact on the environment is substantial. Using the USB flash drive will:
- Save approximately 5 mature, fully grown trees cut down to produce the 280 kilos of printed materials used by the Royal Cliff MICE team each year at trade and road shows.
- Eliminate the 11.88 tons of carbon that is produced when shipping brochures to those shows each year.
- Allow immediate updating as new information comes online.
- Reduce the waste of discarded and aging printed materials produced by the travel industry.
By offering promotional materials on the USB flash drive, the Royal Cliff Beach Resort continues its commitment to environmental conservation. The Resort has been recognized for environmental conservation with awards from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (Thailand) and TUI AG Environmental Management (Germany). It is listed on The Best Green Hotel website as an environmentally friendly hotel implementing 17 different measures to conserve. It has also twice won the “Green Planet Award” from Kuoni Travel, Switzerland, most recently in 2007-2008.
Our planet is shared by all. Those of us in the hospitality and tourism industry should support the effort to reduce waste, allow the trees to live and work their magic on the build-up of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Pattaya, Thailand - HRH Princess Ubolrat Ratchakalya Siriwattana Pannawadi graciously presided over the official launch of the Pattaya Exhibition and Convention Hall (PEACH) Expansion Ceremony on November 22, 2008. Marking the 35th anniversary of the founding of the Royal Cliff Beach Resort, the PEACH expansion now makes the convention center the second largest meeting venue in Thailand, placing it squarely on regional and global agendas. PEACH was officially inaugurated by HE Gen. Prem Tinsulanonda in November 2000.
The “Glamour and Glitter” reception brought together leaders in government, tourism, business and professional organizations to celebrate both the 35th anniversary of the Royal Cliff and the PEACH Expansion Launch. A dazzling event, reflecting the 5-Star luxury standard maintained by the Royal Cliff Beach Resort for decades, the guests enjoyed songs and dances performed by stars in the entertainment industry as well as multi-media presentations, light shows and fireworks. The evening climaxed with a moving tribute to HRH Princess Ubolrat’s To Be Number One program, which focuses upon positive alternatives for teenagers at risk, which is also aligned with the Royal Cliff Beach Resort mission statement in being the number one in the hospitality industry.
The Pattaya Exhibition and Convention Hall (PEACH) is a world-class multipurpose exhibition and meeting facility of the award-winning Royal Cliff Beach Resort offering complete versatility and flexibility. PEACH has 6-levels in a stand-alone complex occupying 10 acres. The convention and exhibition hall accommodates up to 8,000 persons theatre-style or 3,640 for banquets.

The Royal Cliff Beach Resort - Brief History
November 20, 2008 by Rebecca Weldon Sithiwong
Filed under General News, Royal Cliff Beach Resort, featured
From modest beginnings with the 88-room Royal Cliff Terrace in 1973, the Royal Cliff Beach Resort has demonstrated tremendous growth in the years since. A year after the opening of the first hotel, the Royal Cliff Beach Hotel came into existence. Over the next twelve years, the new 527-room hotel—the largest at the resort—together with the Royal Cliff Terrace, established a worldwide reputation as the place to stay in Asia and so the Royal Cliff legend was born.
In 1986, the exclusive all-suites Royal Wing & Spa, a hotel with the accent on the highest standards of service and hospitality opened its doors to guests. Currently comprised of 85 luxurious suites, including 2 lavish Presidential Suites, the 5-star plus Royal Wing & Spa remains to this day the resort’s flagship hotel.
The newest of the resort’s four hotels, the elegant 372-room Royal Cliff Grand, was completed in 1992 and today serves as the Royal Cliff Beach Resort’s most corporate-styled hotel. With 10 meeting rooms and 2 ballrooms as well as high-speed Internet access throughout the hotel, the Royal Cliff Grand serves as the primary meetings and conference-related hotel venue as well.
Late in 1999, a major addition was made to the resort’s already extensive range of meeting, incentive, convention and exhibition facilities. This was the multipurpose stand-alone meeting venue – the Pattaya Exhibition and Convention Hall (PEACH), with room to easily cater to over 5,000 delegates. As one of Thailand’s newest and most state-of-the-art venues, PEACH is ideal for numerous types of events, from conventions, exhibitions and product launches to gala banquets, weddings and concerts.
Within months of the opening of PEACH, the Cliff Spa came into existence. With complete spa facilities located at both the Royal Cliff Grand and the Royal Wing & Spa, the Cliff Spa has a total of 18 treatment rooms in an environment dedicated to providing the utmost in relaxation and offers a variety of treatments to nourish and awaken the senses.
The latest addition to the resort’s culinary kaleidoscope of 10 dining venues was Caprice Restaurant & Bar, a cool and stylish place to spend your evening, unlike any in the city of Pattaya, where contemporary cuisine, cocktails, fine wines, great music and a sophisticated ambience blend into pure style.
Today, the Royal Cliff Beach Resort can claim four 5-star hotels, 10 restaurants, 5 bars, 5 swimming pools, 2 health spas, a Thai cooking school, a state-of-the-art fitness complex, 7 tennis courts, 2 squash courts, a practice golf course, exclusive beaches, a world-class convention and exhibition centre, 3 ballrooms, 21 meeting rooms and a 120-seater catamaran as part of its impressive portfolio of services and facilities.
