Located at one remove from the relentless traffic that streams along Sathorn Road, The Metropolitan is a haven of peace and tranquility amidst buzzing Bangkok. The sister to London's coolest city hotel, it's also a place where the clich-d East-meets-West approach to hotel design is executed to sublime effect.
