"The plans for Four Seasons’ return to Bangkok (a prior location closed in 2015) predate the body blow that travel took during the pandemic, but the Jean-Michel Gathy–designed reincarnation on the banks of the Chao Phraya feels tailored to Bangkok residents anyway. For visitors who have already ticked off the city’s sightseeing hits, it offers serious staying-put appeal: a multitiered swimming pool with thick-cushioned loungers for all-day lingering; vast suites and bedrooms with deep soaking bathtubs; and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame knockout river views. The four restaurants are set for lazy lunches, while the bossa nova–humming BKK Social Club is helmed by Philip Bischoff, formerly of the glitzy bar Manhattan at the Regent Singapore. The contemporary art collection has an urban edge: Towering works depicting the curves of the Chao Phraya or the folds of a monk’s robe hang from the lobby’s marble walls, while a rotating exhibition puts the spotlight on local talent. Over the years, indie galleries and artsy boutiques have turned this corner of Bangkok into the city’s de facto design district, a transformation that is complete now that the Four Seasons is back." - Chris Schalkx, Lee Cobaj
"Reimagined by Jean-Michel Gathy, I found the Four Seasons tailored for lingering: a multitiered swimming pool with thick-cushioned loungers, vast suites with deep soaking tubs and floor-to-ceiling windows framing knockout river views, and four restaurants for leisurely meals. The BKK Social Club (helmed by Philip Bischoff) hums bossa nova, and the hotel’s contemporary art collection—towering works and rotating exhibitions—gives the property an urban, design-district edge." - Jenny Adams
"Down by the river, the Jean-Michel Gathy–designed property feels more resort-like than any of its waterfront peers, with shiny marble hallways, enough contemporary art to fill a museum, and a three-tiered pool and al fresco restaurants that make it tempting to nix sightseeing and loll in the sun. Rooms with cloud-soft Four Seasons beds invite leisurely sleep-ins, while a stellar line-up of dining options—chi chi Cantonese at Yu Ting Yuan and the destination-worthy BKK Social Club bar—gives little reason to venture out. Expect a pool, wellness center, 7 bars and restaurants, breakfast, gym, and rooftop bar, plus a sprawling spa that hits sore spots with everything from hi-tech lymphatic draining sessions to Thai oil massages with healing herbs and spices." - Chris Schalkx
"Few settings rival this Two MICHELIN Key riverfront escape, which offers direct access to art galleries, shopping and short boat rides to landmarks like the Grand Palace; the riverside grounds incorporate lush garden courtyards, multiple infinity pools, a wellness center and exceptional dining — including Yu Ting Yuan, a MICHELIN-selected Cantonese restaurant." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Though part of one of the world’s most renowned hotel chains, this Two MICHELIN Key property confidently carves out its own identity. Sprawling riverside grounds blur the line between indoors and out, while thoughtfully curated contemporary art by Thai talents adds a vibrant local touch. Two expansive swimming pools embrace the tropical climate, transforming urban energy into a resort-like escape. Dining spans a wealth of experiences, including the show-stopping Cantonese restaurant Yu Ting Yuan, and indulgence peaks in the Riverfront Penthouse, which pairs uninterrupted views with a rooftop terrace and private pool." - Angie Thien
