The second tallest skyscraper in Bangkok , King Power MahaNakhon (formerly known simply as MahaNakhon) doesn’t just stand out for its height, but also for its captivating design. Its “pixelated” and “cuboidal” exterior has made it one of the most photographed buildings in the city and a key feature of Bangkok’s futuristic skyline. Housing a mix of residence and retail, since late 2022, the structure has also been home to The Standard Bangkok Mahanakhon, the US-based chain’s Asian flagship.
Founded by man-about-town André Balazs, Standard International has brought the concept of the boutique hotel into the 21st century with signature properties such as The Standard High Line in New York’s Meatpacking District and the now-shuttered The Standard Hollywood in Los Angeles . With its cheeky vibe, design-led interiors and informal but attentive service, the group has built a global portfolio that now includes two hotels in Thailand (the other one is in the coastal resort town of Hua Hin). {"@context":"https://schema.
