Conrad Bangkok is located in Bangkok’s commercial district and is linked to the All Seasons Place shopping complex with the BTS SkyTrain station nearby to explore the city, accessed with the hotel’s complimentary shuttle. The 391 elegantly attired rooms and suites set over 32 floors are Art Deco inspired with Thai accents, replete with wood panelling and decorative elements, Thai artworks and silk for a touch of luxury. There are floor to ceiling windows and all the facilities one expects nowadays with equally roomy bathrooms with granite counters and separate showers and deep soaking tubs. Room sizes are generous, ranging from the spacious Deluxe Room at 41 square metres through to the 102 square metre Terrace Suite for that touch of the outdoors and the spacious Presidential Suite, coming in at more than double the size at 238 square metres.

The entire seventh floor of the property is dedicated to wellness with the Seasons Spa at Conrad Bangkok offering eleven treatment rooms and a range of hydrotherapy options including a sunken Japanese tub, a whirlpool and steam room.
