The House on Sathorn is an historic Bangkok landmark and its bar looks like a cross between an ancient palace and a gentlemen's club; no expense has been spared in creating this spectacular room. There's a big emphasis on bottle service - including some excellent whiskies - and it's easy to see yourself sinking into a sofa and enjoying one (responsibly) over the course of an evening. However, don't miss the cocktail list, which combines Thai ingredients and flavours with world-class brands.

From an upmarket hotel and a diplomatic office, this historic colonial mansion in downtown Bangkok reopens its door as hub for dining and entertainment.

This beautiful building was formerly the home of Lord Sathorn, who built the Sathorn Canal and then built this mansion in 1889. It later became the luxury Hotel Royal, the Embassy of the Soviet Union, and then of the Russian Federation. It now serves as an elegant restaurant and bar under the auspices of the W Hotel.
