This Iconic Bangkok Hotel Gets A Timely UpgradeWhen the InterContinental Bangkok first opened 20 years ago, it was the embodiment of five-star hotel luxury. Its prized location in the Ratchaprasong district, close to malls and offices, as well as the Chit Lom BTS station, made it favorable for both business and leisure tourists. Today, the hotel still retains many of these aspects, but has been given a multimillion-dollar renovation and redesign by Thailand-based P49 Deesign & Associates.
