No need to plan it, this ritual is poured every day. 🍵
Around Lake Hamana, tea isn't saved for ceremony. It flows through every meal, a daily gesture that becomes the rhythm of local life. And the tea itself is unlike most, deep-steamed far longer than usual for a rounder, sweeter flavour you won't find elsewhere.
At Grand Mercure Lake Hamana Resort & Spa , that ritual becomes yours to slow down for. ..One cup in, and you already belong to the rhythm of the place. 🌿

The longest distance between the sea and your plate? The hours you spend in the water first.

Every dish here carries the spirit of southern Thailand, drawn from its markets, its spices and its slower rhythm. The morning is for the water, and the afternoon for the flavours only this coast can offer, fresh from the Andaman and seasoned like tradition.

This is discovery you can taste, right where you are. 🐟

Think Japan is all neon lights and big cities? Think again. 🌿
Ise-Shima is the Japan you didn't know you were missing: sacred shrines tucked along a preserved coastline, a region the Japanese themselves call the land of the gods, far from the crowds. At Grand Mercure Ise-shima Resort & Spa, this is your base: onsen mornings, Shinto shrines along the shore, and seasonal dishes that taste like this exact corner of Japan and nowhere else.
Had this on your Japan list yet?

Your Thai cooking class starts in the garden. 🌿

Before any chopping or cooking, you discover the ingredients of Thai cuisine that have shaped it for generations at Grand Mercure Khao Lak Bangsak. Crouching between lemongrass and kaffir lime, you begin to understand what gives Thai flavours their depth, their balance, their quiet intensity.
Then the journey moves to the stove, where our chef turns those same ingredients into a meal you didn’t just eat; from the very first leaf, you built it.

This is how you taste a destination from the inside out.

The best souvenir from India? A flavor you can't stop thinking about. 💭
The spices don't just flavor the dish, they map a region, mark a season, carry a memory.
At Grand Mercure Mysore and Grand Mercure Gopalan Mall, Karnataka's most rooted culinary traditions come alive at your table, from the stone-ground chutneys of Mysore to Bengaluru's legendary slow-cooked curries.

This is how you taste a destination, not just visit it.

In Nasu, exploring together is a family tradition. 🌲

One day, it’s a picnic spread across the meadow at グランドメルキュール那須高原リゾート＆スパ. The next, it’s a ropeway ride up Chausudake, watching volcanic ridges and endless forest stretch out below, just as families have done here for generations. And by night, it’s the whole family lying back, tracing constellations under a sky full of discoveries still to come.

For curious families, Nasu never runs out of adventures.

This is one of South India’s oldest culinary traditions. 🍃

Eating on a leaf is a centuries-old way of dining, rooted in hospitality and a deep respect for the meal itself… And yes, there’s an order to it too.
Rice goes at the center, curries take their place at the edges, the sweet comes early, not at the end, the way you’d expect.

At , this isn’t a trend we’ve adapted. It’s a ritual we’ve preserved, exactly as it’s always been practiced.

Some places are best discovered before the day begins. 🌊
And in Khao Lak, mornings start with the ocean.

As the sun rises over Bangsak Beach, surfers head for the water, following a daily ritual shaped by the rhythm of the sea.
At Grand Mercure Khao Lak Bangsak, this surf culture isn't something to observe from a distance. It's an invitation to experience the destination the way it lives and breathes.

Just beyond your door, a different kind of cultural immersion awaits.

In Thailand, joy is a ritual. ✨

Sanuk is the art of finding pleasure in every little moment: a morning swim in the crystal-clear water as the sun rises, gathering with locals to float flower offerings on the water at dusk, savoring a candlelit dinner by the shore as the waves gently roll in. These aren't special occasions. They are just everyday life.
Here, the water isn't just a backdrop. It's where sanuk truly comes alive.

Come experience it at Grand Mercure Khao Lak Bangsak
