\"INNSiDE<\/a>Bangkok, Thailand, October 24, 2025 \/ TRAVELINDEX \/ Standing 34 floors high and with an awe-inspiring glass infinity pool on its rooftop, INNSiDE by Meli\u00e1 Bangkok Sukhumvit was yesterday recognised in the Conde Nast Traveler Readers\u2019 Choice Awards 2025 as among the Thai capital\u2019s top five hotels<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The US-based Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler<\/em> is arguably the leading luxury travel platform in the world<\/a> and the announcement of its annual Readers\u2019 Choice Awards is an eagerly anticipated event in the calendar of the global hospitality community.<\/p>\n

Online voting for the world\u2019s favorite hotels<\/a>, resorts and spas ran from April through June this year, with more than 750,000 votes cast.<\/p>\n

In the World\u2019s Hotels category, INNSiDE by Meli\u00e1 Bangkok Sukhumvit was voted the fourth best in Bangkok, edging out some of the most famous and celebrated hotels in the Thai capital.<\/p>\n

The recognition comes just one week after INNSiDE Bangkok was honoured with an Outstanding Award in the category of Accommodation\u2013Design Hotel at the 15th Thailand Tourism Awards on September 27.<\/p>\n

Sponsored by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and known affectionately as the \u201cKinnaree Awards\u201d, INNSiDE was the only hotel in Bangkok to be recognised with this distinction.<\/p>\n

Similarly, INNSiDE\u2019s sister hotel, Meli\u00e1 Chiang Mai, was honoured with a Thailand Tourism Excellence Award in the category of Accommodation\u2013 City Hotel, making it the only hotel in the northern capital to receive the prestigious title.<\/p>\n

The Conde Nast Traveler<\/em> recognition was not the first major media award that this hotel has won. INNSiDE clinched a coveted spot in National Geographic Traveller<\/em>\u2019s 2024 awards, taking the title as the world\u2019s best \u201cBudget Break\u201d hotel.<\/p>\n

The UK publication applauded the 208-room INNSiDE by Meli\u00e1\u00a0Bangkok Sukhumvit for its \u201cclutch of bars, restaurants and communal workspaces\u201d and \u201ccrowning glory: a glass-bottomed infinity pool overlooking the metropolis\u201d.<\/p>\n

The honours coincide with events to celebrate INNSiDE\u2019s second anniversary, having opened its doors to guests in July 2023.<\/p>\n

By night, the hotel\u2019s 34th<\/sup> floor, featuring a pool bar, transparent infinity pool, rooftop terrace, and a compelling contemporary interpretation of Bangkok\u2019s Brahman structure The Giant Swing, all become an upper-floor extension of 33rd<\/sup> floor LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar. The tapas bar\u2019s design, including its striking angled lines and cabling, pay tribute to another iconic Bangkok landmark, Rama VIII Bridge.<\/p>\n

LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar was last year awarded the prestigious \u201cRestaurants From Spain\u201d certification for its efforts to promote authentic Spanish gastronomy.<\/p>\n

Chef de Cuisine, Madrid-born Juan Ignacio Garc\u00eda Racionero, who has honed his craft in some of Spain\u2019s top kitchens, has crafted a menu that celebrates Spain\u2019s famed cuisine, offering authentic tapas, Spanish wines, cocktails and signature sangrias.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs Thailand\u2019s first INNSiDE by Meli\u00e1 hotel, we are honored to have achieved so much in just two years,\u201d said General Manager Tarek Beheiry. \u201cWe want to continue to lead by example through a continual focus on our people, our facilities and our unique guest experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fresh-faced and exuding modernity from every corner, INNSiDE offers eight accommodation categories, each with work desks and DreamMaker mattresses. In-room perks range from complimentary minibar items, organic bathroom amenities and natural cork yoga mats to 50-inch TVs, Wi-Fi, and USB chargers. Rooms on the upper floors afford spectacular vistas across the Thai capital.<\/p>\n

A 30-minute ride from Suvarnabhumi Airport and close to Bangkok\u2019s largest convention centre, BITEC, the hotel is also home to a 24-hour gym and a concierge service. A ban on single-use plastic and recycled glass bottles for drinking water is among the hotel\u2019s raft of sustainability efforts.<\/p>\n
