Superbly located right in the city’s business district, 137 Pillars combines elegant, luxurious urban flair and design with a great food and beverage offering, stunning rooftop infinity pools and a superb spa. The modern, beautiful suites are some of the most spacious and luxurious accommodations you will find in Bangkok.

Location & Hotel

Bangkok, the famous capital of Thailand, is one of the most vibrant cities in the world. Foodies return to the city over and over again to sample some of the best street food in the world or to indulge in excellent Michelin-starred cuisine. The hotel offer is outstanding, combining luxury with excellent value for money. But the city also offers cultural and historical highlights and is one of the most accessible destinations in Asia. Hospitality lovers could spend months exploring the incredible range of great hotels and restaurants in the city centre, and that’s why we keep coming back, too.

Located in the heart of the metropolis, in the shopping, fashion and business district of Sukhumvit, 137 Pillars Suites & Residences Bangkok offers a location that is ideal for both leisure and business travellers. The hotel is housed in a modern, high-rise building on Sukhumvit Soi 39 and combines a modern, luxurious design with timeless quality.

The hotel was built under the direction of the owners of 137 Pillars House Chiang Mai and is inspired by the original designers of their Chiang Mai home. However, while the 137 Pillars House Chiang Mai focuses on authenticity, charm and atmosphere, the 137 Pillars Bangkok combines a modern, warm Thai design with a cosmopolitan, urban flair.

The building is divided into two areas, with the 179 residences located on the lower and middle floors of the building and the 34 suites on the upper floors. The communal areas are truly luxurious and combine elegance with high-quality materials. The colour palette includes rich and warm tones such as deep reds, golds and browns, creating a luxurious and welcoming atmosphere. Combined with the high-quality materials such as marble, polished wood and plush carpets, the ambience is elegant, refined, warm and luxurious.

Menu highlights include the “Miang Kham King Scallops”, an appetizer where an array of herbs and vegetables such as lemongrass, betel leaves, coconut and shallots harmonize with succulent king scallops; or the “Poo Lon”, a delicious relish from Central Thailand consisting of premium soft shell crab, crab meat, coconut, chili and a selection of mixed herbs, served alongside local vegetables and herbs. The Northeast Thai specialty soup “Tom Sab Kai Mod Dang Pla Yang” combines a herbal blend of lemongrass, kaffir lime, galangal and basil leaves with crispy red ant eggs and seared tuna for a tantalizing combination of flavours. Make sure to try the fragrant “Gang Lueng Pla Salmon” curry, too, and leave room for the “Kao Neaw Mamuang”, or mango sticky rice with mango mousse and coconut flakes.
