What they say
Also in AFAR.
The adults-only property doubles as a museum with antique printing presses, rare magazine volumes, and retro arcade games.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Lan Luang Road places you near Wat Saket and local cafes, with complimentary bicycles ready for pedaling through the historic district.
The rooms
Timeworn timber floors meet cast-iron beds and micro-gel mattress toppers, creating quiet quarters filled with mid-century antiques.
The rooftop hot tub
An open-air whirlpool tub sits in the rooftop garden, looking out toward the Wat Saket skyline.
At the table
Cooked-to-order breakfasts of eggs, tropical fruit, and organic yoghurt are served around the lobby lounge's vintage tables.
How it began
Six interconnected shophouses once served as the printing press and family home for the publishers of Bangkok Weekly magazine.
