Top 10 Business Hotels in Bangkok

Wrapped in a swanky coating of curving steel and glass, this immaculate 381-room hotel, near Chidlom Skytrain station, offers sweeping views of the city from almost every window. From the Italian marble bathrooms to the Egyptian bed linens, everything is unremittingly sumptuous. And the business facilities (private limousine anyone?) are contenders for the best in town.

The marble floor, the winding staircase, the brass fixtures, the smiles – everything at this lavish city address comes polished. With downtown Sukhumvit as its backdrop, and a walkway linking to the Skytrain and subway, making that meeting is a cinch. And the Business Centre, library, ritzy rooms and superlative gourmet restaurants (try Rossini’s) only enhance its high-profile appeal.

It has the swish Business Centre, Executive Club Suites, even a Butler service… But what really marks out this 5-star, one minutes walk from Asok Skytrain station, is its signature services. There’s the helpful ‘One Call Service’, and the iconic ‘Heavenly Bed’, one of which graces every room. Our favourite though is ‘Unwind’ – a nightly Piano Bar ritual where execs enjoy free snacks and head massages.

These elegant, award-winning 1, 2 and 3-bedroom suites are perfect for the business traveller with family. Why? Firstly your other half will love the nearby upmarket malls. Then there’s the joy of being able to keep one eye on the stock market, in your home office area, and the other on your sofa-slouching kids. Qualified nannies, a swimming pool and a 24-hour business centre.

A swish Sukhumvit landmark. Not only for rising high into the sky, but also for its high standards. No less than 10 gourmet restaurants, a stunning pool and a highly acclaimed spa. Oh and its hi-tech, hi-luxury rooms are just, wow. However, it’s the uptown location, midway between Ploenchit and Nana Skytrain stations, the smart Business Centre and Executive Floors that really raise its stock.

On Wireless Road, this is one of Bangkok’s premier event and conferencing hotels. Its opulent grand hall, blessed with city-view bay windows, is perfect for business gatherings for up to 1,500. And, yet, it’s no one trick pony. 378 guestrooms, a spa, outdoor pool, gardens, fitness centre, squash courts and a Club Lounge – all executed with the gleaming finesse of a Starwood Hotel.

Get pampered in Asia's tallest garden spa. Make a splash in the free-form pool, or enjoy vertiginous views in your fashionable suite. Savour the best in Thai at signature restaurant, Saffron. Or dine at Vertigo, the tallest al fresco champagne and grill bar in Asia. Sathorn’s The Banyan Tree is truly a ‘Sanctuary for the Senses’. Oh, and the business facilities aren’t bad either.

Banish all preconceptions. This swish spacious property, formerly the President Hotel, is a Holiday Inn with a difference - smart, good looking, eminently business-like. Includes two Executive Club floors, Suites and a Business Centre. Missing the family? No worries, the kid’s area, swimming pool, nearby Skytrain and upscale malls provide the perfect excuse to fly them in.

Close to Nana BTS Station, the recently spruced up The Landmark is a popular choice among executives, and now sports a snazzy Club Lounge, open 24 hours for its Landmark Club Floor guests. Diverse accommodation (from ample rooms to vast suites), an ultra modern Business centre, fitness centre and a lovely pool… all this high-end luxury for a very down-to-earth price.
