With this opening becomes 4 Marriott luxury signs in the capital of Thailand. The Ritz Carlton is just under 2km from the St. Regis, which is located on the opposite side of Lumpini Park. In contrast, the JW Marriott is located in the heart of Suckumvit Road, a few steps away from Nana Plaza, more shifted instead the W Hotel. There would then also be two independent hotels participating in the The Luxury Collection, but I keep them apart since they are precisely independent and do not follow precise dictates like proprietary signs.
The hotel has 260 rooms, including several suites. Rooms range in size from 50 to 389 square meters and are designed to offer a unique experience, with large panoramic windows that provide stunning views of the city skyline.
Guests can choose from 50-m² deluxe rooms, 102-m² Gardenia suites, and even more spacious suites such as the Marigold e Amaranth, as large as 127 m². For those seeking the ultimate in luxury, however, the choice cannot but fall on the Ritz-Carlton Suite which, at 389 m², is the most exclusive penthouse.
The Ritz-Carlton, Bangkok offers upscale dining experiences. There are 3 restaurants: the Duet by David Toutain, in which Michelin-starred celebrity chef David Toutain, in collaboration with the talented Valentin Fouache, brings modern French cuisine to the table. Then there is the restaurant Lily's, which offers contemporary dishes; finally, there is also Caleō, where you can enjoy tea or cocktails in an exclusive setting with a breathtaking view.
Many services are offered to guests. On the 23rd floor is located The Club Lounge, the perfect retreat for those seeking privacy and sophistication. Also present is the Ritz-Carlton Spa: an oasis of tranquility, the perfect retreat to rejuvenate mind and body with exclusive treatments in five dedicated rooms, including a suite for couples. There are, in addition, two swimming pools-one of which is dedicated to children-and a state-of-the-art fitness center.
One of the distinctive aspects of the Ritz-Carlton Bangkok is a commitment to providing authentic experiences that reflect Thai culture. These include the daily moment of "Klong Yao" (long drum ceremony) and activities such as the Terrace Chi (Tai Chi in the morning) allow guests to immerse themselves in the local culture. In addition, the One Bangkok Art Loop offers creative tours to discover the works of local artists, while the activity of flower pressing entertains the little ones.
