About Metropolitan Hotel Bangkok (5 Star)
Indulge in the Metropolitan way of life: fresh, stylish, energetic. The Metropolitan, Bangkok, is the Thai capital's newest hotspot for those at the centre of the action.
A cool and contemporary east-west aesthetic with modern Oriental accents is combined with award-winning cuisine, a holistic spa and Bangkok's chicest lounge bar.
However, the Metropolitan, Bangkok, is also a place for the most demanding traveller who seeks not just style, but accurate service.
The hotel's 171 rooms, including four penthouse suites and a two-bedroom presidential fiefdom, share a cosseting, contemporary style by Kathryn Kng, a Singapore-based interior design practice.
The look is fresh without being ferociously avant garde, acknowledging influences from both the east and west.
The simple, ample volumes are flooded with light, manipulated by lighting architects, Isometrix, London.
Natural materials include Makha wood from Thailand, combined with oxidized brass paneling.
Paintings are also featured, by Natee Utarit, an up-and-coming artist at the cutting edge of Asia's art scene. Utarit's images, hung throughout the hotel, give depth to the otherwise clean-lined spaces.
