Renaissance Bangkok Ratchaprasong Hotel

As you step inside Bangkok’s Renaissance Ratchaprasong Hotel, you feel the sultry allure that epitomizes this great country. Everything you heard about Thailand, from the beaches of Phuket, to the exotic flavorful foods, and the wondrous temples of Ayutthaya, the Renaissance feels like Thailand.

The rooms, with the voyeur window bathrooms and soft beds, oozes with sexiness. The dark purple hues relaxes your senses to escape bustling Bangkok life. The large rooms with the high ceilings will never make you feel cramped.

The restaurants and lounges, provide more than adequate services. The R Bar, the 1st floor lounge, doesn’t feel like a regular hotel bar. La Tavola serves up Italian fare in a setting perfect for private events. Our morning buffet breakfast at Flavors offered many Western and Asian choices.

But I believe the 23rd floor is where the Renaissance makes its mark. The splendid views from this vantage is where the pool, spa, and fitness gym are situated. The double story room, with supporting open air columns, provide a permanent cool breeze. I doubt many people could get a full workout with these great views.

Located in the busy Ratchaprasong district, the Renaissance outclasses some of the other prestigious hotels in the area, Intercontinental and Four Seasons. For the value and comfort, I’d pick and recommend the Renaissance to anyone going to Bangkok.

The Lobby - As you walk in, it feels as if you have entered in the coolness of a nightclub.

The beautifully anointed single rooms offer sublime spaciousness.

Each shower comes with a standard rainfall shower. My only gripe is that I wish the hot water in the rainfall shower came one faster.

Each room comes with a bathtub and for the voyeurs in all of us - there's a close-able open window to the bedroom.

The Renaissance is located in the heart of Bangkok's Chit Lom district. Look for this glowing sign at night.

Colors and Lights theme this hotel all throughout.

The 1st floor lounge - R Bar. The lobby's accents continues into this lounge with mood lighting.

The R Bar is not your usual hotel bar/lounge. I think it is good enough to be a destination place for drinks.

Make sure you get the Mango Breeze

The fitness gym on the 23rd floor, which offers great panoramic views.

Also on the 23rd floor, there's the Quan Spa for relaxing.

Stunning views can be seen, also on the 23rd floor, in the open swimming pool.

With the open pool area, you feel a constant breeze, then coupled with the high ceilings, this pool area is on the reasons to stay at the Renaissance Bangkok Ratchaprasong

You could relax here all afternoon.. . .I know I wish I did.
