MUU Bangkok Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

Located in the city's stylish Thong Lo district, MUU Bangkok comprises both a boutique hotel and high-end residences; some people live here, and the thoughtful design reflects that reality — the name, after all, is the Thai word for “community.” While rooms have all the amenities one would expect at a luxury hotel, they’re also well-suited to longer stays, and the common areas, from the pool deck to the sophisticated cocktail lounge, encourage socializing.

There’s a time and place for everything, of course, and it’s tempting to retreat to one’s own space after an afternoon exploring Bangkok. Rooms and suites are elegant with a touch of glamour, featuring timber flooring, king-sized beds, marble bathrooms with tubs and rain showers, and twenties-inspired decor, from jewel-toned headboards and vintage alarm clocks to gilded detailing and velvet divans. Larger apartment-like suites are more minimalist in style, with multiple bedrooms, fully equipped kitchens, and furnished terraces.

Double infinity-edge swimming pools set amid attractive landscaping serve as a cool oasis on the hotel’s eleventh floor. Adjacent are a lively pool bar and a restaurant specializing in Mediterranean cuisine; elsewhere onsite are a café and bakery, a modern fitness center, a spa suite, and a speakeasy-style cocktail bar. For more options, MUU is connected to Eight Thonglor, an upscale shopping area, and the surrounding neighborhood is filled with boutiques, bars, galleries, and restaurants.
