STAY Rosewood Bangkok’s 159 rooms range from the clever Sense Studios, which include a dedicated spa space and marble-lined whirlpool where therapists can administer cosseting, in situ treatments, to a Two-bedroom Sky Pool Suite with its own outdoor terrace and private plunge pool. Rosewood Bangkok’s most exceptional spaces are the aforementioned three ‘Houses,’ the designation given globally to Rosewood’s most exceptional suites. On the 20th and 23rd fl oor respectively, Nara House and Thara House are nearly identical, save for the former being smaller. Each the fi gurative home of a worldly art collector, they are elegantly fi nished in jades and grays, decorated with a geometric chandelier here and a fold of jacquard Jim Thompson textiles there.

With guests checking into the Rosewood luxury hotel since September, the reopening has allowed for the o ffi cial global launch of Rosewood Bangkok’s Houses: three sprawling signature suites touted as being among the most lavish abodes o ff ered by any hotel in this immense city.
