Perched prominently on the 23rd floor of Andaz One Bangkok , Piscari rises above the city skyline with the easy elegance of a Mediterranean retreat suspended in the sky. Conceived as a rooftop supper club grounded in the philosophy "Live Daily Life with Spirit," the space captures the relaxed conviviality of coastal living while embracing Bangkok's vibrant urban rhythm. The experience unfolds as a gradual journey: from the soft glow of golden hour to the lively pulse of the

Bangkok's riverside dining scene took on a distinctly European refinement as Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River welcomed Spanish pastry chef Miquel Guarro for a limited-time pop-up and collaborative Afternoon Tea. While the Café Madeleine showcase concluded on 28 February 2026, its technical clarity and flavour architecture continue to resonate. The limited-edition Afternoon Tea at The Lounge, created alongside Executive Pastry Chef Andrea Bonaffini, remains av

Four years since its debut in January 2022, Mandarin Oriental Shenzhen has settled confidently into the upper echelons of the city's hospitality landscape — both figuratively and quite literally. Occupying levels 67 to 79 of Tower A at UpperHills in Futian's business district, the hotel rises above the city's velocity with quiet authority, offering a vantage point that feels composed rather than removed. All 178 rooms and suites — among the most spacious in Shenzhen — are fr

W Does Brunch at The Kitchen Table with Aperol has settled into Bangkok’s weekend rhythm with the kind of confidence that only comes when spectacle meets structure. Since its collaboration launched on 1 November 2025, the brunch has evolved from a refreshed concept into a fixed ritual. As March approaches, it feels less like a seasonal highlight and more like an established cadence. Held every first and third Saturday from 12:30 to 15:30 on the second floor of W Bangkok Hotel

In Bangkok, longevity is an achievement measured quietly. New bars arrive with cinematic lighting and ambitious manifestos, only to dim when the next new thing commands attention. The city rewards novelty, but it ultimately respects conviction. As Dry Wave Cocktail Studio marked its second anniversary in late January 2026, the milestone arrived without spectacle. It unfolded with composure — the understated assurance of a bar that has never relied on theatrics to define itsel

Few hotels in Bangkok carry history quite as visibly—and gracefully—as Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel. Since opening in 1978 as the Bangkok Peninsula Hotel, the property has undergone a series of transformations: sold and reborn as The Regent Bangkok in 1982, re-emerging as Four Seasons Bangkok in the early 2000s, and eventually rebranded as Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel. Rather than erasing its past, each evolution has added depth, leaving behind a hotel that feels layered, assur

When it comes to izakaya dining, sophistication is rarely part of the expectation. The genre is more often associated with bustle and informality—places defined by noise, familiarity and quick gratification rather than refinement. With KŌKULABO Izakaya Bangkok, however, Koleido Lifestyle Group gently repositions that narrative, offering an izakaya experience shaped by precision, premium ingredients and thoughtful restraint. KŌKULABO Izakaya Bangkok is the group's latest openi

For more than 15 years, Devasom Hua Hin Resort has quietly offered a refined alternative to the conventional seaside resort. Tucked along a serene stretch of beach between Cha-am and Hua Hin, it balances proximity to town with a sense of calm seclusion. Days follow the tide and the breeze, while sunlight drifts through palms and trees in a rhythm that feels natural yet purposeful. Here, time is measured by the lapping of waves and the gentle sway of the horizon rather than cl

For almost a decade, ALATI at Siam Kempinski Hotel Bangkok has been recognised as a Mediterranean restaurant, but that chapter has now drawn to a close. With the arrival of a new, young Executive Chef, Phillip Taylor, the restaurant enters a fresh phase defined by a clear culinary identity: Grill, Fire, Smoke. This shift signals more than a menu refresh, introducing a new rhythm to the dining experience through a bolder food direction, relaxed atmosphere, and a distinctive vi

Siam@Siam Design Hotel Pattaya occupies a position that few hotels in the city can claim: familiar without feeling dated, distinctive without trying to constantly reinvent itself. Located near Pattaya Beach, the hotel remains immediately recognisable thanks to its cobalt blue exterior, a colour choice that continues to stand out in a skyline dominated by neutral high-rises. When it first opened, Siam@Siam Design Hotel Pattaya was among the city's earliest design-led hotels t

As Bangkok's cocktail culture continues to mature, hotel bars—once content to serve classics with polished restraint—are increasingly stepping into more expressive territory. Siam Kempinski Hotel Bangkok is the latest to do so, repositioning its elegant 1987 Lounge as a destination for thoughtful, ingredient-led cocktails rooted firmly in Thai terroir. The result is a new six-drink menu that signals a clear shift in direction: one that respects luxury while embracing storyt

Perched atop the Siam@Siam Pattaya Hotel , just a stone's throw from the golden sands of North Pattaya Beach, Barbù is a rooftop restaurant and lounge that blends relaxed indulgence with bold, well-crafted flavours.

The venue balances indoor comfort with open-air charm, offering a cosy interior dining space alongside two

Hong Kong is known for its incredible reinvention tales, and the newly opened Kimpton Tsim Sha Tsui has a remarkable one to share. Previously the site of the city's famous Mariner's Club, this waterfront property has swapped sailors' footwear for upscale designer shoes, emerging as a stunning 42-story tribute to its nautical history with a distinctly contemporary flair.

While Macau is renowned for its casinos, Mandarin Oriental Macau does not feature one. Instead, the hotel offers a calm, refined atmosphere, free from the distractions often found in casino properties. Perched along the shimmering Macau waterfront, Mandarin Oriental Macau invites guests to an elegant urban sanctuary with sweeping vistas of Nam Van Lake, Macau Tower, and the South China Sea.

Hong Kong captivates as one of Asia's vibrant cities, where the unexpected often flourishes against its urban landscape. While some may assume that this metropolis has revealed all its secrets, the city continues to astonish with hidden treasures waiting to be uncovered. One such treasure is Peridot, an extraordinary dining and sipping paradise perched on the 38th floor of The Henderson, one of the late Zaha Hadid's architectural masterpieces. Inside, Peridot showcases the vi
