Bangkok Hotels in Focus: A Sophisticated Comeback in Bangkok’s CBD
COMO Hotels and Resorts has unveiled the grand reopening of COMO Metropolitan Bangkok, marking a striking new era for one of the city’s most beloved design hotels. The 22-year-old property in the bustling Central Business District has undergone a transformative redesign, marrying serenity and style in a bold reinterpretation of contemporary urban living.

A Masterful Vision by Paola Navone
Paola Navone’s design philosophy brings an imaginative yet grounded sensibility to the property. Known for her work on COMO Point Yamu in Phuket, Navone once again crafts a sensory experience where local materials and modern design coexist. The interplay of textures—wood, ceramic, and stone—contrasts beautifully with bold color accents like Buddhist orange and woven seat-backs. The lobby’s sculpted stone counter pays homage to Thai temple craftsmanship, while the patterned bamboo walls filter light with a touch of tradition. The result is an aesthetic that feels at once contemporary, culturally rooted, and effortlessly luxurious—a reflection of Bangkok’s evolving cosmopolitan spirit.
Dynamic Spaces for Living, Dining and Wellness
At the core of COMO Metropolitan Bangkok’s rebirth is its dedication to creating an urban sanctuary. The hotel’s new design invites both energy and repose, blending city dynamism with tranquil sophistication. Guests can relax by the 25-meter outdoor pool, rejuvenate in the iconic COMO Shambhala wellness centre, or engage in yoga sessions in the light-filled studio. The spa, with ten treatment rooms and a hydro pool, reinforces COMO’s commitment to holistic wellbeing—a signature of the brand’s identity worldwide.

Culinary Excellence Continues at nahm and COMO Cuisine
COMO’s culinary reputation remains impeccable. The celebrated nahm restaurant, led by Chef Pim Techamuanvivit, continues to hold its Michelin star for the eighth consecutive year. Known for its meticulous exploration of regional Thai flavors, nahm’s dishes balance the intricate dance of sweet, salty, spicy, and sour that defines authentic Thai cuisine. Reservations remain essential for this intimate dining experience that captures the artistry of modern Thai gastronomy.
For guests craving a more casual yet health-conscious dining experience, COMO Cuisine makes its Thai debut on the second floor. Curated by Culinary Vice President Daniel Moran and Executive Chef Amanda Gale, the menu offers an array of global comfort dishes and nutrient-rich options from COMO Shambhala Kitchen. Fresh juices, salads, grilled fish, and wholesome grains are crafted to rejuvenate both body and spirit, in line with COMO’s wellness-driven philosophy.

The Spirit of a Modern Sanctuary
The reopening of COMO Metropolitan Bangkok represents more than a design overhaul—it signifies the brand’s evolution in urban hospitality. The fusion of Navone’s visionary design, exceptional cuisine, and restorative wellness offerings creates an urban retreat that reflects the essence of modern Bangkok: cosmopolitan yet soulful, dynamic yet calm.
