Volve Hotel Bangkok

Volve sits on a quiet residential lane on Thonglor's doorstep, and Thong Lo BTS is just 100 metres away. Thonglor and neighbouring Ekkamai are packed with cafés, cocktail bars and some of the city's most talked-about restaurants, and the Skytrain puts the rest of Bangkok within easy reach.

Volve draws design cues from mid-20th-century Thai architecture that has slowly disappeared from the city, with modern touches throughout. A parquet lobby floor flows into marble, terrazzo stairs feature geometric patterns, and every room displays colourful art that celebrates Bangkok's many lifestyles. The name comes from "evolve", a nod to how travel changes us.

Rooms feature premium beds, a rain shower, and Malin + Goetz bath products, and the Deluxe rooms overlook the city at sunset. The Studio Suites have panoramic windows onto a lush garden, and the two-bedroom suite adds a second bathroom, a bathtub and a separate living room.

The lobby doubles as a drawing room and café and includes an in-house bakery. Need ideas for the evening? Dial zero and the team will tell you what's hot in Thonglor tonight.
