Thailand Hotel News: Landmark hospitality development to anchor Thailand’s ambitious BLESS International Wellness and Sports City
A major new hospitality destination is taking shape in Bangkok’s Nong Chok district as Pacharakrit Property along with Mr. Worawi Makudi, former Executive Board Member of the International Federation of Football (FIFA), former President of the Football Association of Thailand, and founder of WM&PC Development Co., moves forward with plans for a 180-room five-star sports hotel and an exclusive 80-villa wellness resort that will become the centerpiece of the landmark BLESS International Wellness and Sports City.

The two hospitality developments form a key part of a 15-billion-baht mixed-use project spanning almost 300 rai, combining international-standard sports facilities, luxury accommodation, wellness experiences and lifestyle attractions within a single integrated destination. This Thailand Hotel News report highlights how the hotel and resort components are expected to become among the project’s strongest attractions, catering to international sports teams, wellness travelers, luxury holidaymakers and corporate groups.
The proposed sports hotel will offer approximately 180 rooms and is planned to operate as a five-star property under the management of an internationally recognized hotel brand. Designed specifically to accommodate professional athletes, football clubs, sporting officials, business travelers and leisure guests, the hotel will provide luxury accommodation integrated directly with world-class sports infrastructure. Alongside the hotel, developers are planning an 80-villa wellness resort that is anticipated to operate in the ultra-luxury six-star category. International hotel operators are currently being shortlisted to manage the resort, reflecting the developers’ ambition to position the property among Asia’s leading wellness destinations.
Hotels and resorts become the heart of the development
While the wider BLESS International Wellness and Sports City will include stadiums, training pitches, residential developments and retail facilities, the hospitality component is expected to play a defining role in attracting year-round international visitors.

The five-star sports hotel has been designed to meet the accommodation requirements of football clubs, national teams, professional athletes and sports organizations visiting Thailand for training camps, tournaments and rehabilitation programmes. Its close proximity to multiple FIFA-standard football pitches and an international-standard stadium is expected to provide guests with a seamless experience rarely found elsewhere in Southeast Asia.
Meanwhile, the wellness resort has been conceived as an exclusive luxury retreat inspired by internationally acclaimed wellness destinations. Featuring 80 private villas surrounded by landscaped gardens and tranquil water features, the resort aims to combine premium accommodation with comprehensive health, wellness and rehabilitation programmes. The development is expected to attract affluent wellness travelers seeking extended stays focused on preventive healthcare, fitness, recovery and holistic wellbeing.
Hospitality positioned for international appeal
Developers have indicated that both properties will be operated to international luxury standards, with the sports hotel expected to benefit from the expertise of a global hotel chain while negotiations continue with international operators for the six-star wellness resort.
The resort’s concept is reportedly modelled on internationally respected wellness destinations, offering personalized wellness programmes, premium spa facilities, nutritional dining experiences, fitness assessments, rehabilitation services and luxury villa accommodation designed for complete privacy and relaxation.
By combining elite sports infrastructure with high-end wellness experiences, the project seeks to create a destination capable of serving several growing tourism markets simultaneously, including sports tourism, wellness tourism, medical travel, luxury leisure holidays and corporate retreats.
From national football center to international destination
The development occupies land with considerable sporting heritage. The nearly 300-rai site previously served as Thailand’s national football training centre for many years and is closely associated with former FIFA Executive Committee member and former Football Association of Thailand president Worawi Makudi.

Drawing upon decades of experience within international football, Worawi has long envisioned transforming the historic property into a globally recognized destination capable of supporting professional football development while creating lasting economic opportunities through tourism, hospitality and investment.
That vision is now becoming reality through the BLESS International Wellness and Sports City project, with Pacharakrit Property leading financial management and development alongside WM & PC Development.
Extensive facilities complement luxury accommodation
The hotels and resorts will benefit from an extensive range of supporting facilities designed to create a complete destination rather than simply standalone accommodation.
Plans include five FIFA-standard natural grass football pitches, one indoor FIFA-standard artificial turf field, a modern stadium capable of accommodating between 8,000 and 15,000 spectators, a luxury sports club, sports villas designed for visiting football clubs, exclusive island villas overlooking a lake, senior living residences and a three-storey lifestyle community mall covering approximately 30,000 square meters.
For hotel guests, this integrated environment will provide immediate access to elite sporting facilities, entertainment, shopping, dining and wellness services within a single master-planned development.
Significant investment in hospitality
The hospitality sector represents one of the largest individual investment components within the first development phase.
Of the project’s initial investment exceeding 15 billion baht, approximately 2 billion baht has been allocated to construction of the five-star sports hotel. Additional investment will support the luxury wellness resort and surrounding villa developments, reinforcing hospitality as one of the project’s principal commercial drivers.
Construction of the first development phase is expected to span approximately three years, with completion targeted between 2026 and 2029.
International design expertise shapes the hotels
To ensure the hospitality offerings achieve international standards, the project has assembled an impressive team of architects, planners and consultants.

An international design and architect company has been commissioned to design the luxury hotel and villa components and will create the wellness resort, focusing on architecture that harmoniously integrates contemporary luxury with natural surroundings.
Another firm internationally recognized for designing major sporting venues across the world, is responsible for the stadium and sports infrastructure, while another separate entity has prepared the overall master plan linking every component into a cohesive destination. Integrated Field is designing the lifestyle, retail and senior living elements that will complement the hotels and resorts.
The combination of internationally respected consultants demonstrates the developers’ intention to compete with established luxury hospitality destinations throughout Asia.
Multiple revenue streams support long-term growth
The sports hotel and wellness resort will contribute significantly to the project’s long-term commercial performance through accommodation, food and beverage operations, wellness services, conferences, sporting events and lifestyle activities.
Additional revenue will be generated through sports facility rentals, luxury villa sales, retail leasing and event hosting, creating a diversified business model capable of attracting visitors throughout the year rather than relying solely on seasonal tourism.
Developers also believe the project will encourage longer visitor stays by combining accommodation, sporting activities, wellness experiences and lifestyle amenities within one integrated destination.
Strengthening Thailand’s sports and wellness tourism sector
The development is expected to strengthen Thailand’s position within two rapidly expanding tourism sectors: sports tourism and wellness tourism.
International football clubs increasingly seek overseas training destinations offering warm climates, quality accommodation and professional sporting infrastructure, while global demand for luxury wellness resorts continues to grow as travelers priorities health, longevity and preventative wellbeing.
The combination of a five-star sports hotel with a six-star wellness resort provides a distinctive market position that few competing developments currently offer within the region.
Developers believe this integrated approach will attract international sporting organizations, professional athletes, health-conscious travelers, corporate incentive groups and affluent leisure visitors seeking premium experiences beyond traditional city hotels or beach resorts.
Confidence in long-term hospitality growth
Pacharakrit Chuenchom, Chief Executive Officer of Pacharakrit Property and founder of WM & PC Development, has expressed confidence that the project aligns closely with global trends favoring premium wellness, integrated lifestyle developments and high-quality hospitality investment.
Financial management for the overall project is being supported by Bluebell Securities to strengthen investment structures and ensure sustainable long-term development.
Beyond the Nong Chok project, the company is also collaborating on future super ultra-luxury villa and six-star hotel developments planned for both Bangkok and Phuket, further reflecting its growing ambitions within Thailand’s premium hospitality sector.
The combination of a five-star sports hotel and an anticipated six-star wellness resort places hospitality firmly at the center of the BLESS International Wellness and Sports City vision. Rather than functioning simply as accommodation, both properties are intended to become destinations in their own right, supporting elite sports, luxury wellness, international tourism and long-stay experiences within one integrated development. If delivered according to plan, the project has the potential to reshape Nong Chok into one of Thailand’s most distinctive hospitality and sports tourism destinations while reinforcing the country’s growing reputation as a global center for premium wellness travel.
