Kromo Bangkok: A New Design-Forward Gem in Sukhumvit

Bangkok’s central business district has no shortage of luxury hotels, but few manage to balance location, design, and experience quite like Kromo Bangkok, Curio Collection by Hilton. Opened on October 1, 2025, this 28-storey lifestyle hotel introduces Curio Collection by Hilton to Thailand for the first time, bringing a fresh personality to the ever-evolving Sukhumvit scene.

Located on Sukhumvit 29 — directly opposite Emsphere and just a short walk from BTS Asok, BTS Phrom Phong, and MRT Sukhumvit — Kromo blends artful storytelling, thoughtful amentities and effortless access to the city. It’s a stay designed for travelers who appreciate style with substance.

Breakfast with Intention

Mornings at Kromo are refreshingly different. Instead of the predictable buffet, breakfast is served à la minute, with a concise but elevated menu. The Eggs Benedict, with two perfectly poached eggs, is a must-try. Freshly squeezed juice, specialty coffee or tea, Greek yogurt, and sourdough with avocado complete the experience. For those in a rush, the Grab & Go counter provides a smart, travel-friendly option.

Breakfast is served on the first floor, while the ground-floor bar offers inventive cocktails by in-house mixologists — a perfect spot to ease into the evening.

Design that Tells a Story

Inside, the hotel channels a sense of calm that contrasts with the energy of Sukhumvit outside. Interiors feature modern Thai design with artistic twists, from pastel-hued bathrobes designed by Nakrob Moonmanas to locally crafted art pieces woven throughout the space.

The 10th floor lobby is also home to an impressive ceiling installation by Korakot Aromdee, a rising designer from Phetchaburi province known for transforming traditional kite-making techniques into refined bamboo craft. In line with the hotel’s storytelling, this floor represents a celestial realm. Korakot crafted cloud-like shapes by bending steel into soft, flowing forms, then stretching hemp fabric across the frames. Each piece is delicately linked and suspended from the ceiling, evoking the sensation of floating among the clouds.

Skyline Views and 24-Hour Energy

The rooftop infinity pool offers panoramic views of Bangkok’s skyline, creating an urban sanctuary above the buzz. Meanwhile, the fully equipped gym operates 24 hours a day — a detail frequent travelers will appreciate, especially those adjusting to jet lag or keeping a late-night fitness routine.

Comfort Meets Connectivity

Kromo’s location is hard to beat: steps away from premier shopping, dining, and transport links. Despite its Sukhumvit frontage, the rooms are whisper-quiet thanks to effective soundproofing.

Each room is equipped with a 55-inch TV, Bluetooth sound system, Nespresso machine, steam iron, and a salon-worthy hairdryer. Bespoke bathrobes and HARNN toiletries elevate the in-room experience.

A Hotel Inspired by the ‘City of Nine Gems’

The hotel’s design narrative draws inspiration from Bangkok’s full ceremonial name — “The City of Nine Gems.” Works by Thai artists are featured throughout, each subtly reflecting the symbolism of the nine auspicious gems.

The 306 rooms and suites are styled in soft white, pink, and light brown tones, while public spaces showcase curated installations that merge tradition with contemporary design. French-inspired dining at Colette and creative gatherings at Vilah on the 10th floor round out the lifestyle experience.

Why Kromo Bangkok is Worth a Try

Kromo Bangkok captures what many travelers seek today: a blend of design, location and relaxed luxury.  Its breakfast concept feels personal, the interiors feel local yet refined, and its prime Sukhumvit address makes exploring the city effortless.

This is not just another Hilton property — it’s a thoughtfully crafted urban retreat with a strong sense of place.
