The company has signed a hotel management agreement with Narai Hospitality Group to introduce Six Senses Bangkok as part of Hatai, a visionary mixed-use development on the site of the iconic Narai Hotel in the heart of Silom.
Narai Hotel first opened its doors in 1968, becoming a trailblazer in Thailand’s hospitality story as a grand gathering place that shaped Silom’s skyline and set the scene for its thriving business and social district. For over five decades, its dedication to exceptional service and unique offerings made it a beloved establishment for travellers, celebrities and royalty. Now, in partnership with Narai Hospitality Group, a new chapter begins with Six Senses Bangkok.
The foundation work is already underway, with designs by award-winning Heatherwick studio inspired by the delicate craftsmanship of traditional lanterns. Hatai will emerge as Bangkok’s new “lantern quarter”, illuminating the city’s cultural heritage through sustainable and progressive design and serving to revitalise the entire area.
Six Senses Bangkok will offer an intimate experience, with around 100 spacious rooms and suites providing a peaceful retreat from the city’s energy, along with a balance of wellness spaces and intuitive, heartfelt hospitality.
The project targets both LEED Gold and WELL Gold certifications, upholding sustainable and healthy building design and construction. Narai Hotel’s original wooden foundation has been carefully extracted and will be repurposed and woven into the interior design, echoing the Six Senses philosophy of using local, sustainable and natural materials.
Crowning the hotel will be a 700sq m suite and signature restaurant, both by design luminary Joyce Wang. Interior design by BAR Studio complements the architectural vision throughout the property and extends to the main restaurant, which connects to a sky lobby via a sky garden incorporating elements of biophilic design.
