As Thailand moves into one of its most popular periods for international travel, 137 Pillars Hotels & Resorts presents the country in its most intimate form with the debut of its full‑property buyout programme in Bangkok and Chiang Mai.

Designed for milestone celebrations, corporate retreats and private gatherings, the offering transforms each hotel into a fully personalised sanctuary, complete with the exclusivity and service standards of a Small Luxury Hotels of the World member.

137 Pillars Suites Bangkok: Claim the City from Above

Rising above the vibrant Sukhumvit–Phrom Phong district with its luxury boutiques, destination dining and leafy urban parks, 137 Pillars Suites Bangkok offers groups the rare chance to take over its 34 suites, all perched on the top six floors with sweeping skyline views.

A buyout unlocks the hotel’s most coveted spaces, beginning with exclusive access to the rooftop, home to Bangkok’s highest 360‑degree infinity pool, open 24 hours a day. Guests can relax into personalised service with round‑the‑clock private butlers, leisurely breakfasts at the Baan Borneo Club served anytime between 7.00 a.m. and 5.00 p.m., and sunset drinks in the pet-friendly garden of Bangkok Trading Post Bistro & Bar or the Level 27 Pool Bar. Groups can also make use of the Guest Service Centre, complete with shower facilities for late departures ideal for seamless travel days.

137 Pillars House Chiang Mai: Step Into a Story of Heritage and Tranquillity

In Chiang Mai, the brand’s flagship property invites guests to inhabit a piece of living history. 137 Pillars House Chiang Mai is built around a 130‑year‑old teak homestead, once the northern headquarters of the Borneo Company. Today, the 30‑suite retreat sits proudly within the leafy Wat Gate enclave, a short stroll from the Ping River.

A full buyout turns the property into a private heritage estate. Groups can wander through tropical gardens, retreat to suites with vintage tiled verandas and Victorian baths and enjoy dedicated butler service from morning to night. The hotel’s iconic 25‑metre emerald pool, framed by a soaring 15‑metre living green wall, becomes an exclusive oasis. The experience extends into Chiang Mai’s cultural fabric, with access to local artisans, temple visits by traditional samlor, and curated encounters that reveal the city’s craftsmanship and history.
