The House on Sathorn

Nestled along bustling Sathorn Road, The House on Sathorn is a stunning piece of Bangkok’s history and a must-visit landmark. Originally built in 1889 by Lord Sathorn—famed for constructing the Sathorn Canal—this grand mansion has served many purposes over the years, including as the luxury Hotel Royal and the Embassy of the Soviet Union. Today, it stands as an elegant restaurant and bar, blending Thai heritage with modern sophistication under the W Hotel's stewardship. Step inside, and the bar transports you to another era, with its lavish interiors resembling an ancient palace fused with a gentlemen’s club. Plush sofas and intricate details set the tone for an evening of indulgence. While the bottle service—featuring exceptional whiskies—takes centre stage, the cocktail menu is not to be missed. Here, Thai ingredients and flavours meet world-class spirits for an unforgettable experience. Sathorn Road, once developed during the reign of King Rama V, remains a vital artery linking Bangkok’s Phra Nakhon and Thonburi districts. Its transformation from a quiet canal-side area to a thriving hub of business and entertainment mirrors the legacy of The House on Sathorn—a perfect blend of history and contemporary charm.
