A new strand of luxury serviced apartment, Metropole, is launched.
To supplement The Ascott Limited’s portfolio of properties, a new luxury serviced residence is being launched in Bangkok called The Crest Collection. The design and style emulates that of European elegance and accordingly it has been named Metropole Bangkok.
Situated in the popular Thong Lo area, the Metropole is a new brand of serviced residences. Sitting alongside the other brands of Ascott, Citadines and Somerset that have been in Thailand for more than 10 years.
Jean Keijdener, Ascott’s country general manager for Thailand, said, “Metropole is the only property in Asia and one of four in the world handpicked to be part of the prestigious Crest Collection. Choosing Bangkok to debut our first Crest Collection property in the region is testament to Ascott’s commitment to Thailand. Bangkok is one of Asia’s most dynamic cities and Thonglor is its most vibrant area, home to the city’s trendiest dining and entertainment options. Metropole is a masterpiece that combines period elegance with contemporary comforts while offering expatriates and travellers unprecedented personalised service. Staying in Metropole is an experience like no other”.
The need for serviced residences has changed over the years. Initially their purpose was to provide an apartment style property within a hotel type environment. They provide space and flexibility on the length of stay that still need to be fulfilled, but the aesthetics have become as important as the level of service on offer. It is therefore fitting that the location of this property is in a popular spot of Bangkok so that guests can benefit from its choice of dining options, boutiques, everyday conveniences plus its growing and eclectic nightlife.
With over 116 spacious apartments from studios to one bedroom apartments, each has been designed with the ultimate home comforts. The ethos is that the Metropole isn’t just somewhere to rest your head, but rather a place you want to can enjoy and relax in. There is a swimming pool, a fitness centre with cold onsen, a restaurant with an outdoor dining area and residents’ lounge. Plus on top of this there are extra facilities that include laundry, dry cleaning and meal delivery.
