The Thai capital’s newest luxury destination is here, with Four Seasons Bangkok at Chao Phraya River poised to open in February.
Designed as an urban resort that will appeal to business travellers as well as holidaymakers, the Four Seasons Bangkok at Chao Phraya River is located on the city’s iconic riverfront and has been designed by architect Jean-Michel Gathy as a captivating series of cascading buildings, courtyards, terraces, gardens and water features across 3.6 hectares.
Rooms with a View
Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River will offer 299 guest rooms, including suites with garden terraces and an extraordinary, two-storey Presidential Suite. Refined residential styled interiors will ensure guests feel right at home. The hotel will also feature an urban spa with a focus on mind, body and soul; two infinity pools overlooking the river; and extensive meeting spaces.
A Culinary Destination
As you can imagine with an five star hotel in Asia, the new hotel promises world-class dining, which will begin at BKK Social Club, located in the property’s central courtyard, where mixologist Philip Bischoff and his bar team will serve innovative cocktails featuring fresh Thai produce, bar dishes that unify comforting local and Latin flavours, rare spirits, and shared punch bowls.
Additional new dining concepts will include Yu Ting Yuan, a high style Cantonese restaurant with a show kitchen led by Michelin-starred chef Qui Xiaogui; Riva del Fiume, where executive chef Andrea Accordi’s creativity takes centre stage both indoors and al fresco on three terraces; and Brasserie Palmier, home to tropical French cuisine in a lively setting. In addition, The Lounge will serve the hotel’s signature afternoon tea as well as casual dining and drinks; while Café Madeleine will be neighbourhood-style pastry shop for sweet treats, classic French bread, and brewed beverages.
Meetings on the River
The Four Seasons is set to become a new meetings destination for Bangkok, with 41,152 sq. ft. creative event spaces lending themselves to everything from gala dinners to intimate meetings and corporate launches. Guests can enjoy sweeping river views from the Four Seasons Grand Ballroom Terrace, or become inspired in The Conservatory with its river-view ballroom, three function rooms and boardroom while the hotel’s outdoor terraces make for dramatic break out spaces.
