Not your grandma’s hotel — The Fig Lobby is an anti-hotel playground where art, inclusivity, and neon energy collide. Our first event kicks off on their rooftop, a hotspot for colorful performances (ladyboys included!) and rooftop views that are almost as fabulous as the crowd. Rooms are wallet-friendly, usually THB 1,500–2,500 per night, so you can splurge on cocktails instead. Peek behind the velvet rope and book your stay here.

From vintage gramophones to a Muay Thai ring, every corner is a conversation starter. While we don’t have special rates here, rooms are typically THB 27,900–32,900 per night, including breakfast.

Where to stay
so much to do, so little time..
Since moving to Bangkok in April 2025, we've explored neighborhoods, night markets, eateries, and watering holes. Of course, Tara and Manuel see the world in different colours - so check out our favourites below and let us know whose team you are on.
-
Manu’s top brunch spot is Yellow Lanein Ari. Tara knows the best Sunday brunch is found in the Antara, but for other days Luka Cafe takes the win. Honorary mention to On Luk Yun, which is a very specific Thai style breakfast, if you're feeling adventurous.
-
Tara’s favourite is Above Eleven, because its on a roof and the sushi slaps. But Golden State is also her favourite because vibes and vegan sushi.
Manuel’s favourite is NAAM 1608, an amazing Thai restaurant right on the river.
-
While Tara relishes in the occasional Padthai Chapaa Asoke, Manuel prefers to travel way out of town to find the excellent(ly hidden) small street food stall Pad Thai Narok Taek.
-
The best Mango Sticky Rice is supposedly Mae Varee, but we will keep eating endlessly to find you the perfect one. You’re welcome.
-
-
A great experience is Cooking with Poo!
Manuel’s walking gems are:Wandering along the skywalk from Phloen Chit to Siam station, stopping by the mall-to-mall complex including Siam Center, Siam Discovery and MBK Mall (known for its knockoff produce, and bubbly vibes)
Finding the connecting skywalk path from Benjakiti Park to Lumphini Park (or vice versa)
-
Tara loves The Oasis Spas and Manuel.
-
Tara loves Bella Beauty Vibes - a Korean hairdresser who does colour analysis, 18-Step-Scalp Treatments and anything else you can think of.
Thailand
Coming soon!
We'll recommend some islands and hotels for you here, in case you are planning to add on a few vacation days (which we hope you do!)
