Fodor's Review:

After checking in on the ground floor, you soar up to your room at this 60-story hotel. The light-filled suites in the impossibly slender tower all have sweeping views of the city. The generous use of native woods in everything from the large desks to the walk-in closets gives each room a warm glow. A fully equipped spa offers the latest treatments, and a sundeck on the 53rd floor beckons with a relaxing whirlpool. For meals or a drink in the evening there's the rooftop Vertigo, which the hotel claims is Asia Pacific's highest alfresco eatery. Each September you can test your fitness in the annual "vertical marathon" up the hotel's stairs; the event is a fundraiser for HIV education. Pros: wonderful views; open-air bars feel on top of the world. Cons: some on-site construction; very expensive, especially for Silom area.
