Featuring 171 spacious guest rooms, cuisine by a Michelin-trained chef and one of the grandest ballrooms in Bangkok.

Waldorf Astoria Bangkok has just inaugurated in the heart of Bangkok, by the busy Ratchaprasong intersection, which is just a few minutes’ walk to the Erawan Shrine and the luxurious Gaysorn Village mall.

Designed by award-winning architect André Fu and his design studio AFSO, the building’s contemporary architecture seamlessly blends with Thai artisanal tradition. The 171 spacious guest rooms and suites feature luxurious, spa-inspired bathrooms and marble bathtubs.

For after-dinner drinks, we recommend either the Loft on level 56–which revives long-cherished cocktails from the 1935 Waldorf Astoria Bar Book with a modern twist, using house-made ingredients—or the Champagne Bar on the top level, level 57, which offers fine champagnes, handcrafted cocktails and an excellent view of Bangkok.
