5-star hotels in Thonglor
Five-star hotels in Thonglor, the Sukhumvit Soi 55 strip that runs north from the BTS station of the same name. This shortlist is for travellers who want boutique restaurants, rooftop bars and community malls on the doorstep, and for anyone comparing the area's top-rated addresses before booking.
Staying in Thonglor
Thonglor is Sukhumvit Soi 55, a 3 km road running north from the BTS station of the same name, and it's the single 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 on packages, or a community mall. The crowd is Bangkok's professional class plus a rotating population of Tokyo expats — Thonglor has the biggest Japanese community outside Japan.
The hotels here cluster on the sois off that same road: Soi Sukhumvit 55 itself, Soi Sukhumvit 57, Soi Sukhumvit 53, Soi Sukhumvit 49, Soi Sukhumvit 59, Soi Thong Lo 16 and Soi Ekkamai 18, with La Clef Bangkok by The Crest Collection down on Sukhumvit 38 Alley. It suits couples and short-break travellers who want food, nightlife and shopping within a walk, families who want a pool or kids pool and apartment-style space, and business travellers who need a business centre or concierge.

Plan your stay
Getting there and around
Thonglor is Sukhumvit Soi 55, running 3 km north from the BTS station of the same name, and the BTS is the way to move: exit 3 puts you at the foot of the strip. Bangkok traffic is legendary and Thonglor is not spared, with Soi 55 crawling at walking pace during rush hour, 5pm to 9pm. 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.
When to go
Thonglor's food and drink strip is best walked 4pm to 8pm: start at BTS Thonglor exit 3 and head north on Soi 55, taking in J-Avenue and The Commons on Soi 17 early before continuing to Soi 55/13 and finishing with a drink at Rabbit Hole or a rooftop at Octave. Rush hour, 5pm to 9pm, slows Soi 55 to walking pace, so time the last stretch on foot or by motorbike taxi.
