4-star hotels in Thonglor
A shortlist of 4-star hotels in Thonglor, the Sukhumvit Soi 55 strip that runs north from the BTS station of the same name. These 15 addresses suit travellers who want Bangkok's bar and restaurant density on the doorstep, with guest scores from 4.3 to 4.8.
Staying in Thonglor
Thonglor is Sukhumvit Soi 55, a 3 km road running north from the BTS station of the same name, and the most self-conscious neighbourhood in Bangkok. Every second building is a boutique, a design-forward restaurant, a rooftop cocktail bar, a serviced apartment tower for expats or a community mall such as J-Avenue or The Commons. The crowd is Bangkok's professional class, aged roughly 25 to 45, alongside a rotating population of Tokyo expats — Thonglor has the biggest Japanese community outside Japan — and a design-conscious travel crowd.
The hotels on this list sit along the same stretch: Soi Sukhumvit 49, 53, 55, 36 and 63, plus a few on New Petchburi Road and Rama 9. That puts couples and short-break visitors a walk or a short ride from the bars and restaurants, while families get suite-style rooms and babysitting at the larger properties. Business travellers are served by 24-hour front desks and business centres. For pure temple sightseeing you are paying a premium for a location further out; for food, nightlife and contemporary Bangkok, the density is hard to beat.

For families
Staybridge Suites Bangkok Thonglor, Dheva Residences Suites and Cassia Rama 9 Bangkok all list babysitting service or cots among their facilities, and Staybridge adds banquet space.

Swimming and sauna
Estella Ekkamai on Sukhumvit 63 is the one hotel on this list with an outdoor pool and a sauna in its facilities, plus a garden, free car parking and laundry service. If a pool and a sauna matter more to you than proximity to Soi 55 itself, this is the pick.
On Soi 55 itself
Staybridge Suites Bangkok Thonglor, Hotel JAL City Bangkok and Centre Point Sukhumvit Thong Lo all have addresses on Soi Sukhumvit 55, the road that is Thonglor. Each keeps a 24-hour front desk and air conditioning, so you are inside the bar and restaurant strip rather than a ride away from it.

Where to stay in Thonglor
Soi Sukhumvit 55
This is Thonglor itself, the 3 km road running north from the BTS station of the same name. It is the single most self-conscious neighbourhood in Bangkok: boutiques, design-forward restaurants, rooftop cocktail bars and community malls such as J-Avenue and The Commons, with a crowd of Bangkok professionals, Tokyo expats and design-conscious travellers. Staying directly on Soi 55 puts the food and drink strip on foot.
Our picks here: Staybridge Suites Bangkok Thonglor · Hotel JAL City Bangkok · Centre Point Sukhumvit Thong Lo
Soi Sukhumvit 49
Soi Sukhumvit 49 runs parallel to Thonglor's stretch of Sukhumvit, and The Quartier Hotel Phromphong Thonglor Bangkok, Walton Suites Sukhumvit and Adelphi Forty Nine all have addresses here. It is the quieter side of the same district, still within the Sukhumvit grid, and useful if you want Thonglor's bars and restaurants nearby without sleeping on the strip itself.
Our picks here: Adelphi Forty Nine
Sukhumvit 63
Estella Ekkamai is on Sukhumvit 63, Thonglor's calmer cousin, described as a stretch of craft beer bars and community malls, and the location of the Eastern Bus Terminal if you are heading to Pattaya. It is the alternative for travellers who prefer that pace, with an outdoor pool and sauna on site.
Our picks here: Estella Ekkamai
Plan your stay
Getting there and around
Thonglor is Sukhumvit Soi 55, a 3 km road running north from the BTS station of the same name. Bangkok traffic is legendary and Thonglor is not spared: Soi 55 during rush hour, 5pm to 9pm, can crawl at walking pace. The rule is BTS wherever you can, motorbike taxi for the last-mile on Soi 55, and never book a taxi to arrive somewhere at a specific time during rush hour — build in 45 minutes buffer. For airport runs, leave a full hour earlier than Google Maps suggests. Sukhumvit 63, home to Estella Ekkamai, holds the Eastern Bus Terminal for Pattaya.
