Hotel The Okura Prestige Bangkok

The air-conditioned city hotel's 240 accommodation units are a luxurious blend of stylish, contemporary design and Japanese elegance with the convenience of modern technology. This building's breath-taking design is an innovative, energy-efficient 'ecoplex', inspired by 'Wai', the traditional greeting gesture in Thai culture, which represents both respect and warmth. Guests are welcomed in the lobby, which offers a 24-hour reception and a 24-hour check-out service, as well as a hotel safe and currency exchange. There is a cafe, bar and restaurant, and guests will appreciate the conference facilities and wireless Internet access. Guests may also take advantage of the room and laundry services (the latter for a fee). Those arriving by car may leave their vehicle in the car park (fees apply).

The rooms are stylish and contemporary with a touch of Japanese elegance, and were designed with the guests' comfort in mind. Each room has large, environmentally friendly, triple-glazed windows, which insulate against sound and heat whilst filling the room with daylight and offering an ethereal, uninterrupted view of the city. All rooms come with an en suite bathroom with shower, bathtub and hairdryer, and offer a double or king-size bed. The rooms also come equipped with satellite TV, Internet access, a radio, safe, minibar, ironing set, air conditioning and tea and coffee making facilities as standard.

In the hidden sanctuary of the hotel spa, guests can begin their relaxing journey with a consultation session with professional and skilled massage therapists. With the use of exclusive organic oils and balms, guests are carefully catered to amidst the serene and calming atmosphere. Massages and spa treatments are available for additional fees. For guests who like to work out, the hotel provides a fully equipped gym with fully integrated TV screens and music hubs on all cardio machines. On the 25th floor guests can find the perfect spot to relax, swim in the outdoor swimming pool, or to cool off after a work-out in the adjacent gym. Guests can exercise and swim while looking out on Bangkok's magnificent skyline. Sun loungers are provided by the pool, and guests can also relax in the sauna or steam room.

The hotel features three restaurants, each serving different types of cuisine, with different styles and ambiances. Traditional to the core, Yamazato is guests' ticket to Japan. In the mornings, the restaurant features a specially crafted Japanese breakfast, while Yamazato's à la carte menu is based on the centuries-old kaiseki ry?ri - Japanese haute cuisine. Up and Above Restaurant and Bar provides an immersive, interactive culinary experience that transforms dynamically as each day progresses. A delicious breakfast is the perfect start to guests' day whether they are staying on business or leisure. Elements represents a new generation of lifestyle dining. The restaurant caters to cosmopolitan guests seeking gourmet food and an exceptional atmosphere without the formal restraints of traditional fine dining. A continental breakfast buffet is served each morning at the hotel. Lunch and dinner can be enjoyed as buffets, taken à la carte, or selected from a set menu.
