An excellent hotel with one of the best locations in town for shoppers, adjacent to Chidlom Sky train station and surrounded by a wealth of luxury and budget shopping opportunities. The atmosphere inside is luxurious but complimented by a cosmopolitan liveliness that such hotels often lack. Truly a gourmet’s hotel, quality dining options are aplenty both inside the hotel and in the surrounding locale.
The newly re-opened Fireplace Grill, a rare Bangkok institution for 30 years, is perhaps the jewel in the crown of the Intercontinental’s restaurants. An elegant, modern grill with fantastic food and a glass encased kitchen affording views of the chefs at work. 280 seater Summer Palace is an acclaimed Chinese restaurant renowned for its divine Cantonese cuisine and dim sum. Shin Daikoku is a well known Japanese eatery with sushi counter, teppanyaki tables and private rooms. For laid back all day dining guests can visit Espresso, providing both a la carte and buffet options and a particularly good Sunday brunch. For informal snacks and drinks the ground floor Deli has divine pastries, breads and coffee. There’s also the rooftop Oasis bar and Balcony Lounge, a great place to watch life go by over an afternoon tea.
