Nine years after opening its doors on 15 October 2007, Pullman Bangkok King Power – the world’s first Pullman – has completed a transformative renovation project that “embodies the trend toward cutting-edge design in the upscale hospitality sector,” says General Manager Marc Begassat, offering guests and locals a compelling new choice for accommodation, show stopping events and innovative dining.

A decade of firsts

In the years that followed the debut of the first Pullman in Bangkok, the network of what has become AccorHotels’ upscale international hotel brand has grown to over 100 hotels with nearly 35,000 rooms in 33 countries, including 67 current hotels and 37 in the pipeline in Asia-Pacific. And just as Pullman Bangkok King Power was the original, it is also the first to undergo a complete revamp in line with the brand’s global ‘Our World Is Your Playground’ concept that caters to the new generation of mobile, hyper-connected, seasoned world travelers.

“The renovation of Pullman Bangkok King Power presented an unprecedented challenge but the result is simply stunning,” says Mr. Begassat. “Our goal was to present our guests with a cosmopolitan, vibrant and stylish experience and I believe we have truly accomplished this. From the initial design to the final construction process, our team has focused on every minute detail to ensure that the service, room amenities and food and beverage facilities – well, in fact, everything – is impeccably presented to satisfy every guest’s individual lifestyle. It is our belief that the new ‘Our World Is Your Playground’ concept will transform the hospitality industry in Bangkok, the world’s top tourist destination, and we are particularly proud that the world’s first Pullman is also the first AccorHotels property bringing this concept to life in Asia.”

More welcoming

It is a transformation that begins in the lobby. On walking into Pullman Bangkok King Power, guests will be introduced to a brand new concept in hotel lobby design named ‘THE JUNCTION, THE NEW LOBBY BY PULLMAN’– which goes far beyond the mere lobby to become a place where barista meets pop-up bar and morning pastries meet tapestries with three distinct areas – the Welcoming, the Meeting and the Food & Beverage zone. Here, guests are invited to enjoy an endlessly delectable experience featuring a unique cuisine rotation concept with a wide choice of freshly made sweet and savory dishes available for sit-in or take-away. At sunset, the cool sounds and laid-back vibe of the resident DJ permeate the atmosphere.

More comfortable

All 354 newly designed guestrooms, consisting of 4 room types including 18 brand-new Deluxe rooms with balcony as well as the 5 gourmet restaurants and bars, have been completely redesigned and revamped by the award-winning designers at Architects 49 (IA49)

Featuring a warm colour palette of grey or charcoal, wall art, wooden work tables, lounge chairs and LED smart TVs, with bamboo flooring in Superior, Deluxe and Executive rooms and teak flooring in the Suites.

More delicious

All-day dining restaurant Cuisine Unplugged invites guests to experience the Face of Foliage, a dining concept built around green and organic ingredients freshly delivered from local farms, interactive experiences between guests and chefs, and a well-being beverage station serving detox, anti-aging and energy juices.

GLEN BAR reopens its doors with a newly constructed mezzanine space under the brand-new theme of ‘VERY Thai’. The exotic displays of yadong – traditional Thai street liquor served from urns – and the gentle sounds of the Ranad – a traditional Thai xylophone – welcome Glen Bar’s guests to an entirely unique, relaxing and soothing experience. A full range of spirits and cocktails is offered to complement the innovative new menu.
