Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok, for over five decades the authentic Thai distinguished hotel in Silom, is embarking upon an exciting new chapter. One which honours its illustrious past and storied legacy while embracing a bold reimagining of the guest experience, and positions the property perfectly for today’s upscale traveller.
Backed by new ownership with deep roots in Thai hospitality and urban development, and fresh from a major multi-million baht renovation led by award-winning interior design firm P49 Deesign, the next chapter for Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok is set to introduce a new layer of energy to the Montien brand. Refreshed interiors, elevated service and award-winning cuisine have all been thoughtfully woven into the hotel’s original character.
The transformation reimagines Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok - once again fully operational and a leading 5-star hotel in Silom Bangkok with city centre skyline views - as a sophisticated urban sanctuary, one where timeless Thai heritage meets a refined modern sensibility.
Guestrooms and suites have been completely redesigned to blend mid-century geometry with elegant Thai detailing, complemented by upgraded amenities and enhanced comfort. Public spaces have been reinterpreted to create a seamless journey from arrival to relaxation, with interiors that showcase an interplay of original art, contemporary craftsmanship, and inviting textures.
Throughout the hotel, original works by famed Thai artist Paiboon Suwannakudt remain central to the design narrative, restored to their original vibrancy and integrated into the property’s refreshed look and feel. It’s a careful blending of art, architecture and hospitality designed to reinforce Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok’s status as a cultural icon.
Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok continues its journey of transformation as one of Bangkok’s most distinctive hospitality landmarks. With its unique heritage and timeless design, the property is being thoughtfully positioned to meet the evolving expectations of today’s upscale traveller - balancing authenticity, sophistication, and service that consistently exceeds expectations.
“Our confidence in Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok’s positioning reflects both the strength of its heritage and the opportunities ahead,” said Grant Healy, chief executive officer of Conduit House, the management platform for the Montien Hotel. “With a focus on long-term value creation, our commitment is not only to deliver strong performance but also to ensure the brand resonates meaningfully with audiences across the globe.”
Charming And Welcoming Rooms and Suites, Designed For Comfort
The abundance of charm, style and warm-welcoming hospitality felt throughout all aspects of a stay at Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok flows through naturally into the hotel’s 475 rooms and suites. Spacious and with the comfort and technology to satisfy today’s savvy traveller, these combine timeless Thai style with a contemporary attitude. They also offer a refreshing touch of artistic flair, with more artwork by Paiboon Suwannakudt gracing the walls and sending a stylistic nod to his murals in the lobby.
The choice of accommodation comes in Deluxe King, Deluxe Twin, Premier King, Premier Twin, Junior Suite California King and Junior Suite Double-Double categories. Each room is well appointed with a smart TV, complimentary high-speed wireless internet, working and reading desk, minibar, in-room safe, hairdryer and organic Charcoalogy bathroom amenities, while an iron and ironing board are available upon request.
Calm And Relaxation In A City Oasis
The hotel’s swimming pool and sundeck is an oasis of calm and relaxation, surrounded by the city skyline. The pool is ideal for a few laps, and equally so for a refreshing dip, before grabbing a favourite spot on the sundeck in which to indulge in a delicious snack and cocktail from the pool bar.
The fully equipped gym provides the perfect opportunity to stay active and achieve those fitness goals. There are cardio-vascular machines to improve endurance including treadmills, elliptical cross-trainers and exercise bikes. A free weight section allows for body toning, and exercise benches, elastic training bands and yoga mats are also at hand for de-stressing and improving flexibility.
Culinary Highlights: From Thai-Chinese Classics to European Flair
Dining at Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok is a delight, with stylish restaurants to choose from and world-class cuisine to savour, from modern European recipes to Michelin Guide-recognised Thai-Chinese dishes.
Ruenton
Honoured by Michelin with a Bib Gourmand distinction, Ruenton is the hotel’s retro-modern all-day dining destination, elevating authentic Thai-Chinese street food to new culinary heights. Reimagined through the hotel’s renovation, the restaurant continues to delight with beloved Thai classics, acclaimed Chinese specialities, and exquisite dim sum - alongside its ever-popular signature the Khao Mun Gai Montien (Chicken Rice). Together, these offerings have established Ruenton as a true Bangkok dining institution, where every meal is an occasion and a curated collection of objets d’art enhances the ambience with refined charm. For those seeking exclusivity, private dining and function rooms provide an elegant setting with added distinction.
Phar-Ram IV Bistro
Taking its name from the bustling road it sits on, Phar-Ram IV Bistro boasts a ‘dual dining’ concept, which sees it enchant patrons as a European-style cafe and deli during the day before transforming into a chic wine bar at night. A must-visit for both hotel guests and Bangkokian locals alike, it’s a fantastic spot for grabbing a morning coffee and then - say, for lunch - savouring the distinctly French flavoured menu. When the sun goes down it’s an equally wonderful choice for tapas, a wine-friendly bistro menu and great company.
Garden Lounge
Every hotel needs a stylish lobby lounge and at Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok, it’s the Garden Lounge. Serving a selection of beverages, wines and light fare this is the place of choice for informal meetings, social gatherings, evening drinks and live music every evening, featuring contemporary pieces performed on traditional Thai instruments. The comfortable lounge chairs are ideal for taking in the hotel’s vibrant atmosphere or simply for relaxing in after a long day, and the Glass House is a superb spot for hosting a party.
A Longtime Favourite For Meetings and Events
Montien Hotel Surawong Bangkok has a rich tradition of hosting all types of meetings and events, from grand celebrations and elaborate dinners to inspirational think-tanks and corporate get-togethers.
