Concierge "The Metropolitan... strives to be the epitome of modernism, with its Mies van der Rohe–style façade and staff dressed in black and white Comme des Garçons uniforms."
Rough Guide "The height of chic, minimalist urban living, where the rooms are stylishly decorated in dark wood, creamy Portuguese limestone and lotus-themed contemporary artworks."
Time Out "Owner Christina Ong forged a sleek, oriental look from the former YMCA, birthing a sister hotel to London's pioneering minimalist icon." Full review

"The Metropolitan by COMO Bangkok is a luxury property that blends the intimacy of a boutique hotel with the amenities and services of a large-scale resort." Full review

DK Eyewitness "This hotel advocates the slow life. The food is vegetarian and purely organic and the place is small, but pays attention to details."
Rough Guide "What was once a seedy short-time motel has been transformed into a bohemian haven with genuine eco-conscious and socially engaged sensibilities and a tangible fair-trade philosophy."
Time Out "This cosy guesthouse melds bygone styles of Thai wooden-house living with art and a sense of community." Full review
