A serviced-apartment-style hotel on Soi Langsuan with rooms larger than a standard hotel's, fitted with a small kitchen, fridge, and microwave that suit families or multi-night stays.

Moxy Bangkok Ratchaprasong

★★★★
Lifestyle travellers · rooftop bar

Marriott's lifestyle brand here has compact but playfully designed rooms, and its draw is the buzzy social spaces and the Sato San rooftop bar on the 32nd floor with city views. It's about a 10-minute walk to Chit Lom BTS, close to CentralWorld and Big C Ratchadamri. Reviews like the atmosphere and value, but note there's no pool and the rooms are on the snug side.

A good fit for families and anyone who shops heavily and doesn't want a long walk back.

Infinity pool · couples
