"Towering above the Phloen Chit district, the Yabu Pushelberg–designed Park Hyatt Bangkok was an instant hit when it opened on the top floors of the Central Embassy building in 2017. Its rooms and suites, all slightly different in size and layout due to the curves of the building, are soothingly neutral with touches of orange and contemporary Thai art. They come with spa-like bathrooms stocked with bergamot-scented Le Labo toiletries, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame dazzling downtown views. Penthouse Bar + Grill, the rooftop hangout designed like a swanky bachelor pad Jay Gatsby would’ve loved, is a solid spot for sundowners. Since mid-2022, the Embassy Room downstairs turns into a Spanish diner after breakfast and dishes up Catalan fare such as octopus with sofrito sauce and trinxat potato mash with Iberico pork. And if you’re after more options, the food courts and restaurants of Central Embassy, one of Bangkok’s chicest malls, are only an elevator ride away." - Chris Schalkx
