Aman Nai Lert Bangkok opens its doors to guests
The second Aman property in Thailand is an exquisite addition to the luxury portfolio
Aman Nai Lert Bangkok has officially opened its doors to the public.
A milestone for Aman’s global expansion, Aman Nai Lert Bangkok joins a robust pipeline of forthcoming properties in both urban and remote settings.
Its opening not only strengthens Aman’s presence in the region but provides guests with an unrivalled base for exploring Aman’s 24 further properties across Asia and beyond.
The newest addition to the luxurious Aman portfolio seamlessly blends the brand’s promise of peace with a truly vibrant setting.
Situated in the lush green seclusion of Nai Lert Park, the highly anticipated opening marks a homecoming as Aman’s second property in Thailand, joining Amanpuri, the original Aman, some 37 years since inception.
Speaking about this defining moment, Aman Group chairman and CEO Vlad Doronin, said: “The opening of Aman Nai Lert Bangkok is a milestone in Aman’s expansion into the world’s most iconic cities. Honouring the heritage of Thailand, in collaboration with the Nai Lert family, the hotel, Aman Club and branded residences, will redefine luxury hospitality in Bangkok. Providing the exclusivity, exceptional location, generous amenities and unparalleled service that is synonymous with the Aman lifestyle, Aman Nai Lert Bangkok sets a new benchmark for the city.”
Telling a compelling story through design
The hotel’s design by Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston draws deeply on the cultural narrative of its location with space, nature and light shaping a timeless yet contemporary retreat.
History was also a key reference with the park’s Heritage Home, built by Phraya Bhakdinorasreth “Nai Lert”, a visionary entrepreneur who helped shape modern Bangkok.
Providing a storied design foundation, combined with Aman’s DNA of space, exclusivity and privacy, the property introduces a new era of refined hospitality to the city.
It follows that local art was central to the aesthetic, with bespoke pieces created in collaboration with Thai artists.
A striking 12-metre-tall tree sculpture, inspired by Nai Lert Park’s century-old Chamchuri tree, rises through a triple atrium on the 9th floor, adorned with 6,000 gold leaves that transition from gold to black.
The lobby features an installation of 3,000 spinning tops forming the Thai numeral one (๑), symbolising greatness which speaks to the Nai Lert legacy, and in the 1872 bar, Chiang Mai artisans carved a series of wood panels framing handcrafted leather clouds, evoking traditional Thai shadow puppetry.
The luxury of space
Elsewhere, the hotel’s 52 suites, among the largest in Bangkok, begin at 94 square metres and boast floor-to-ceiling windows.
Each suite is thoughtfully designed in a muted palette to foster a calming atmosphere, with spacious living areas, generously proportioned furniture and state-of- the-art technology, all reflecting Aman’s understated elegance.
The brand’s signature pivoting light panels allow customisation of the space, creating a semi-open-plan layout between bathroom and bedroom in seconds.
Stately in proportion, Signature Suites are the hotel’s largest yet most discreet.
The Terrace Suite, at 114 square metres in size, enjoys its own exclusive open-air lounge, while the residential-style Aman Suite is the jewel in the crown, spanning an entire floor.
Covering an impressive 713 square metres, the suite offers three bedrooms, alongside an entertainment room and private spa.
Refined venues for dining and gathering
Several venues for dining and socialising enhance Bangkok’s burgeoning culinary scene.
On the ninth floor, Italian cuisine is offered at Arva, renowned for its emphasis on fresh, seasonal ingredients.
Adjacent is the convivial bar, 1872, named after the birth year of patriarch “Nai Lert”, while
The Pool bar on the same floor serves refreshing drinks and light fare, enveloped by the park’s verdant canopy.
The 19th floor, a dedicated space for Aman Club Founders, in-house guests and residence owners, introduces two new restaurant concepts from Aman providing an elevated Japanese dining experience to the city.
The first, Sesui, a masterful sushi omakase experience, and the second, Hiori, an interactive teppanyaki counter.
For those looking to unwind, the Aman Lounge, with its rooftop terrace and sweeping skyline vistas, and Cigar Bar provide sophisticated spaces for relaxation.
Where wellness comes first
One of the largest wellness facilities in the city, Aman Nai Lert Bangkok’s 1,500-square-metre Aman Spa & Wellness centre covers three floors and offers an unparalleled urban expression of the holistic Aman wellness philosophy.
The spa features Medical Wellness by Hertitude Clinic, providing advanced treatments such as cryotherapy, IV therapy and bespoke wellness programmes.
Complementing this is an Aman Spa, which celebrates Thai healing practices and is complete with eight treatment rooms and Banya Spa House, the first of its kind in the city.
Offering a private experience with its own steam room, jacuzzi and lounge, the setting is perfect for half- or full-day wellness journeys with family and friends.
Surrounding an elliptical void punctuated by a century-old Sompong tree, the hotel’s swimming pool invites relaxing afternoons in the dappled shade of Bangkok’s third tallest tree.
Steam rooms, saunas, cold plunge pools and hydrotherapy facilities are accompanied by a state-of-the-art fitness centre alongside movement studios for yoga, Pilates and personal training.
