After 5 years, Dusit Thani Bangkok is ready to return to be one of Bangkok's much loved landmark on Sept 27.
Get ready for a breathtaking new chapter in Bangkok's hospitality scene! The iconic Dusit Thani Bangkok hotel is reopening its doors on September 27th, 2024, after a complete rebuild, while incorporating the DNA of the Dusit Thani brand, including valuable art objects. This isn't just a refresh – it's a stunning reimagination that pays homage to the hotel's rich 50-year legacy while setting a whole new standard for luxury.
Honoring the Past, Embracing the Future
Imagine waking up to uninterrupted views of Lumpini Park from your luxurious guest room, designed by André Fu Studio and offering ample space at 50 square meters. That's the reality at the new Dusit Thani Bangkok, where all 257 rooms boast this incredible panorama. Elegant window seats invite you to soak in the scenery, making every stay a true immersion in the vibrant city. But the experience goes beyond aesthetics. The hotel seamlessly blends the original hotel's charm with contemporary design. Think warm color tones, subtle traditional motifs, and exquisite craftsmanship throughout.
The new Dusit Thani Bangkok isn't just about looking forward; it celebrates its history too. The original hotel's iconic golden spire has returned, now even more prominent. Artworks and murals from the beloved Benjarong Thai Restaurant have been meticulously preserved and displayed in the new lobby. It's a touching tribute to the hotel's legacy.
"Our goal was to honor the original Dusit Thani's legacy while creating a modern luxury experience," said Ms. Suthumpun. "We meticulously preserved iconic elements, blended them with contemporary design, and stayed true to our founder's vision of showcasing Thai culture and gracious service. Sustainability is also a core focus as we deliver an unparalleled guest experience," said Ms Suphajee Suthumpun, Group CEO of Dusit International.
Natapa Sriyuksiri, Dusit International's Group Creative Strategy Director, described the design challenge as capturing the original hotel's essence while creating a modern aesthetic. She explained, "The original Dusit Thani Bangkok had a unique soul, and our goal was to translate that spirit into a contemporary space. We achieved this by reinterpreting the hotel's iconic design elements through a modern lens."
The new hotel's architecture, designed by Architects 49 International Limited and OMA Asia Hong Kong Limited, pays homage to the original while its interiors by André Fu Studio blend the hotel's heritage with contemporary Thai aesthetics.
A Sanctuary of Wellness and Exquisite Dining
The new Dusit Thani Bangkok offers a holistic approach to well-being. Expect a unique urban wellness concept that goes beyond the spa, offering experiences designed to rejuvenate you.
Foodies will be delighted too. Ten restaurants and bars, created in collaboration with renowned chefs and mixologists, promise a culinary adventure. From intimate gatherings to large-scale events, the hotel also boasts over 5,000 square meters of dedicated meeting and event space, perfect for any occasion.

The Dusit Thani Bangkok is just one piece of the exciting Dusit Central Park development. This mixed-use project will also include ultra-luxury residences, a state-of-the-art office tower, a high-end retail center, and an 11,200 sq m rooftop park, all slated to open in 2025.
