Situated at the prime location of 1472 Sukhumvit Road, the hotel ensures swift connectivity to Suvarnabhumi Airport, On Nut BTS Skytrain station, and Bangkok’s premier convention centre, BITEC. This strategic position makes it an ideal base for business and leisure travellers, granting easy access to various services and popular attractions.

The property’s 32nd-floor co-working space redefines productivity, offering a panoramic view of Bangkok’s skyline through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. A suite of five creatively-themed meeting rooms and multifunctional spaces like the Big Ideas Space underpin the hotel’s ethos of fostering innovation and productivity. Whether corporate conferences or bespoke social events, INNSiDE by Meliá Bangkok Sukhumvit’s flexible spaces cover all bases.

Food connoisseurs can explore a gastronomic journey through the hotel’s three distinctive eateries. The 34th floor is home to an awe-inspiring infinity pool and The Giant Swing Pool Bar, with its contemporary interpretation of Bangkok’s iconic Brahman structure offering an exceptional photographic backdrop. By night, the bar metamorphoses into an upper-floor extension of the hotel’s 33rd-floor LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar, serving an array of Spanish wines, beers, cocktails, and authentic tapas dishes, all under the watchful eyes of Chef de Cuisine Laia Ferrer.

Complementing the property’s exotic dining landscape is The Kites Eatery, an all-day dining venue showcasing an assortment of Thai cuisine using locally sourced ingredients. The eatery’s chic ambience, encapsulated within glass walls featuring Sanam Luang’s illustrations, offers a visual feast alongside the culinary journey.

The Open Living Lounge, an inviting café and lobby bar seamlessly blended into the 32nd floor’s coworking space, offers a more relaxed atmosphere with Thai and Western comfort food on its menu. Keeping the cultural references intact, the lounge’s design pays homage to another Bangkok landmark, Wat Phra Kaew, with a golden counter inspired by traditional Thai decorations.

At the same time, in-room amenities, including complimentary minibar items, organic bathroom amenities, and natural cork yoga mats, offer guests a comfortable, immersive stay.
