Toast to the new beginning in Ratchaprasong
Bangkok’s glamorous downtown district is home to some of the city’s hotels—a favorite among the locals and tourists—that go all out when celebrating the holidays. Think dazzling light displays, the most ornate Christmas decorations, and elegant dinners that start and end with wine—lots of it!
To celebrate the arrival of 2023, the Bangkok outpost of The St. Regis Bar is taking the lead in revealing a new bar program that pays homage to the legacy and glamor of the original House of Astor in New York. Drop by to enjoy the signature cocktail Violet Hour Martini, an elevated gin-based tipple by new bar manager Volkan Ibil, and savor that magical time when the sun sets, and the sky turns purple, signifying the transition from day into evening.
Apart from enjoying The Violet Hour, visit on the third Saturday of every month and learn how to make elegant drinks from the hotel's new drinks menu.
