First time in Public?

What makes a hotel worth the word “best”?

For a Bangkok stay, the answer is usually practical before it is poetic: a central location, easy transport, a room that sleeps well, a pool that feels like a pause button, food and drink you actually want to use, and enough character that the hotel feels connected to the city.

Public House Bangkok is a 79-room design-led hotel on Sukhumvit 31, with recognition from hotel guides, editors and travel platforms. It is not trying to be every kind of Bangkok hotel. It is for travellers who want Sukhumvit access, independent design, social spaces, a rooftop swimming pool and a neighbourhood that puts Asok, Phrom Phong, EmQuartier, Emsphere, Terminal 21 and Benjasiri Park within easy reach.

  • 79rooms and suites
  • 13 minwalk to Phrom Phong BTS
