This hotel perfectly translates the fundamental values of Novotel - simplicity, modernity and efficiency - ensuring that all guests feel at home while just a few steps away to Bangkok's shopping paradise."

 

This newly built hotel starts from the 6th floor of Platinum Fashion Mall, Zone 3, which is the region's top wholesale shopping centre. With a panoramic view of Bangkok's city centre, the 283 "new generation" guest rooms and suites have been carefully designed to blend ergonomics with spacious, modern designs and colourful décor, while maintaining the relaxation and comfort every Novotel hotel is globally known for. Ensuring practical and technological features, each room consists of a flat screen TV,  free Wi-Fi internet access, and a TV connection panel for USB, audio and video for guests who plan to work in their rooms.

 

The hotel also features a ballroom with natural lighting and high ceiling that can accommodate up to 200 guests, while its three large multi-purpose function rooms are equipped with state-of-the-art technology and meeting facilities for small-to-medium gatherings.

The Platinum Lounge, a perfect venue to chat with friends and colleagues while enjoying light drinks and meals overlooking the view of Bangkok's skyline. A groovy place to relax, the Pool Bar provides a large selection of cocktails, fresh fruit juices and snacks.
