SEVEN

3/15 Sukhumvit Road - 10110 BANGKOK - Thailand

A place for the privileged elite, Seven is undoubtedly a stylish proposition in the sprawling metropolis that is Bangkok. With just six couture guestrooms, it epitomizes the feeling of staying at a luxurious private residence, rather than a hotel.

It was born of a partnership between legendary UK design firm Studio Output (whose work includes Ministry of Sound in London), renowned Thai architect Komsuree Komintre of Cubism Studio and award-winning Thai landscape designer Piyachanok Wijarn (responsible for Cindy Crawford's residence in Malibu and Leonardo DiCaprio's boutique hotel in Belize). Ultra modern, this hotel offers an exclusive and authentic experience.

There are six private spaces for guests' rest and relaxation, each of which is superbly designed to maximize the sense of spaciousness and comes with a chic design that will leave you awed. The multi-purpose 'seventh space' - reception/art gallery/bar/lounge and each of the six guest rooms are inspired by the Thai tradition of relating each day of the week to a specific god of the planets.

Each space is designed around a different color, featuring red, yellow, pink, green, orange, blue and purple - the colors associated with each of the seven gods found in ancient Indian astrology.

Seven is neatly tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac just five minutes walk from Phrom Phong BTS SkyTrain station in the heart of Bangkok. This facilitates easy access to all of the city's major sights, from one of the most fashionable and vibrant parts of town. The trendy Sukhumvit area is home to an endless variety of art galleries, bars, fashion boutiques, high-end shopping malls and world-class restaurants.
