Hotel JAL City Bangkok, the 13th JAL City property to be operated by Okura Nikko Hotel Management, one of the largest hotel operators headquartered in Japan, will open on 8 May 2020.

Located on Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok’s Thonglor tourist and business district and currently operating as Hotel Verve Bangkok, the property will be rebranded as Hotel JAL City Bangkok. The hotel is now open to taking bookings.

It is situated adjacent to Hotel Nikko Bangkok, which opened in January 2019. Thonglor BTS Skytrain station is just a three-minute walk away. Thonglor is an area extending north and south from Soi Sukhumvit 55, commonly known as Thonglor Road. The area has long been home to many Japanese and other expatriates as well as wealthy Thais.

“We are delighted to be able to introduce the Hotel JAL City brand outside Japan for the first time,” said Jo Sato, the hotel’s cluster general manager. “We’re expecting it to bring broader recognition of our hotel brand in Thailand. We aim to provide services that take advantage of the convenient and strategic location of the new hotel.”

The hotel comprises 324 chic and relaxing guest rooms, each with a standard area of around 28 square metres.
