5-star designer hotel in central Bangkok with Christian Lacroix-inspired interiors

Design & Rooms

The hotel was designed by Thai designers and fashion designer Christian Lacroix, using the Five Elements (Water, Earth, Metal, Wood) as themes for the rooms. Each room is individually decorated with premium bedding and unique design elements, such as hand-painted mirrors and signature color schemes. Guests choose a preferred element at booking and stay in a room that matches that visual aesthetic.

Wellness & Pool

The SO/ SPA offers treatments that blend Thai and French spa concepts, including body scrubs, wraps, and facials. The outdoor infinity pool on the 10th floor provides a view of Lumpini Park while guests use the pool loungers and sun umbrellas. The fitness center has a full range of equipment and offers yoga classes, personal training, and a steam room.

Dining & Bars

The hotel has two restaurants, including Red Oven which serves an international breakfast buffet and themed dinners. The rooftop bar (Hi-SO Bar) offers views of the Bangkok skyline and a menu of cocktails and snacks. Monthly SO Pool Party events take place at the pool area, attracting young urban professionals with live DJs and evening entertainment.

Location & Transport

The hotel is a 3-minute walk from Lumphini MRT station, giving direct access to the QSNCC Convention Center and shopping areas. A free shuttle service runs to major transport hubs and the Silom complex, and a hotel tuk-tuk service takes guests to nearby locations every hour. Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi airports are both about 25 km away.

Entertainment & Events

The hotel hosts a live music/performance and evening entertainment, including a nightclub/DJ at Club La Cassette on the rooftop. Cooking classes and chocolate-making workshops are offered, led by the hotel's chefs. Bicycle rental is available for guests who want to explore Lumpini Park, located directly across the street.

Highlights

Design: Christian Lacroix-themed rooms in 4 elements

Wellness: SO/ SPA with Thai-French treatments

Dining: Red Oven buffet & Hi-SO rooftop bar

Events: Monthly SO Pool Party with DJ

Location: 3 min walk to Lumphini MRT station

“The hotel makes a striking impression, especially with interiors conceived in collaboration with Christian Lacroix. Its location near Lumphini Park and an MRT station is a genuine advantage for getting around Bangkok. I especially appreciate the focus on wellness, with a comprehensive spa blending Thai and French techniques.”

decent stay with a few glitches

good room pleasant view awesome gym long wait unavailable room poor communication
My room was well-decorated and laid out nicely. the view was pleasant from my room. i found the gym to be awesome.
i waited for 3 hours at reception. i reached the hotel around 9am and was told a room could be available before 12nn. they said i had to wait until the room gets cleaned, so i wasted time in the lobby.

mixed feelings about the stay

worn room sparse minibar
the room i received showed significant wear. the bathroom fixtures were loose and some tiles looked stained. this contrasted with the pictures online, that show a much fresher appearance. also, the minibar was quite sparse, only offering water and a single small snack, not the 'free minibar' advertised. i expect better maintenance and clearer communication.
