Ahead of its opening in 2020, the all-new Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River is now taking bookings for stays from 1 February. And here’s all the glitz you can expect to see inside – from slick bars to sweet shops.

Occupying 200 metres of waterfront, the new accommodation is the vision of architect and designer Jean-Michel Gathy. The creative’s design is set upon 9 acres and features high ceilings, glass walls, and water features and pools to echo the movement of the Chao Phraya River.

Not only does a sophisticated art selection ornament the walls the Four Seasons, but a dedicated Art Space will highlight the talents of contemporary Thai artists.

Start your stay with drink from the BKK Social Club in the hotel’s courtyard in a tropical-inspired space (including a space reserved for cigar enthusiasts).

Yu Ting Yuan will bring refined Cantonese cuisine to the hotel, with Michelin-starred chef Qui Xiaogui at the helm, while Riva del Duime sees executive chef Andrea Accordi’s creativity come to life. Brasserie Palmier will serve up culinary fare toted as ‘tropical French’, and The Lounge will be a go-to for afternoon teas, casual dining and drinks.

Neighbourhood-style pastry shop Cafe Madeleine will be a providore of sweet treats and French breads. And, if guests don’t feel like catching a lift downstairs, they can enjoy 24/7 in-room dining.
