5* upscale Bangkok hotel with rooftop pool

• Elegance in the city: Bangkok’s known for its bright lights, fast-paced action and constant buzz, but in five-star The Salil Hotel Sukhumvit 57, the clamour of the city dies away and elegance reigns. Here, the contemporary design is given a nod to colonial style, with delicate friezes on the walls, Art Deco-inspired furnishings and geometric patterns on rugs and wall dressings. Bedrooms and suites are serene sanctuaries to return to after packed days of sightseeing – your own personal retreat. For further relaxation, head to the rooftop pool on the eighth floor.

• Café culture: While Thonglor literally throngs with restaurants, bars and cafes – particularly Japanese cuisine – the hotel offers a slice of European café style with a Thai twist. Bar Storia del Café combines Western and Thai favourites in its all-day dining room, while the Secret Garden next door is perfect for intimate occasions or a quick bite. Enjoy the full afternoon tea service at the Mariage Freres tearoom in the lobby, which has one of the largest selections of teas in the whole of Thailand.

• Exclusive experiences: Staying at The Salil opens up a world of experiences – as well as access to the knowledgeable concierge. The hotel can arrange a variety of exciting ways to get to know the capital. The on-site fitness centre is also on hand for heart-pumping workouts, while the hotel's location in Thong Lor means you're perfectly placed to explore one of Bangkok’s best neighbourhoods. 

How to get there

The hotel is in the heart of Bangkok, about 25 minutes’ drive from Suvarnabhumi Airport, the closest international airport. It’s around 400 metres from BTS Thong Lor station.
