What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The double-height lobby is as grand as can be, and the rooms are an exceedingly palatable blend of classic luxury, Thai tradition, and modernist simplicity.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Direct skywalk access connects to Chit Lom BTS Station, placing CentralWorld and the revered Erawan Shrine right outside the front doors.
The rooms
Double-glazed soundproof glass frames the city skyline, paired with deep soaking tubs, separate rain showers, and subtle Thai Kranok patterns.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The free-form rooftop pool on Level 37 is ringed by palm trees, sun loungers, and skyline views.
The spa and gym
Level 36 houses private spa treatment suites, and the 24-hour gym includes a full regulation Muay Thai ring.
At the table
Dining spans California-inspired plates at SoCal, classic afternoon tea in the Balcony Lounge, and rare whiskies at Humidor.
How it began
Though the 37-story tower completed an extensive property-wide transformation in 2023, its signature Fireplace Grill has anchored the intersection since 1966.
