Renaissance Bangkok Ratchaprasong Hotel Celebrates the Renaissance Day of Discovery 2025, Uncovering Layers of Discovery through culture, cuisine, and creativity
Bangkok, Thailand – November 2025 – Renaissance Bangkok Ratchaprasong Hotel joins Renaissance Hotels, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s global portfolio of over 30 extraordinary hotel brands, in celebrating its signature Renaissance Day of Discovery, transforming hotels across Thailand into living showcases of local spirit, where every moment sparks curiosity and connection.
Guided by the hotel’s Navigator, guests are invited to embark on immersive journeys that reveal the city’s vibrant character. Experiences include storytelling tours that connect the hotel’s artistic interiors to nearby cultural landmarks such as the Erawan Shrine, food offering to monks at Prathumwanaram Temple, and a visit to the Ban Bat community, where artisans handcraft traditional alms bowls.
Within the hotel, guests can explore an engaging pop–up experience at the lobby featuring a live silk weaving demonstration that showcases the intricate artistry of Thai craftsmanship. This activity highlights how silk is beautifully integrated into the hotel’s interior design, symbolizing elegance, texture, and a sense of local identity — a narrative that seamlessly leads to the Jim Thompson Museum or The Queen Sirikit Museum of Textiles, in celebrating Thailand’s timeless weaving heritage.
Adding another layer of discovery, guests can also join a DIY fresh flower garland workshop, where they can craft garlands traditionally used when paying respect at the shrine. This activity connects naturally to the Pak Khlong Talad flower market, one of Bangkok’s most vibrant local experiences, enriching the Navigator’s storytelling journey through color, fragrance, and cultural symbolism.

The celebration reaches its peak on 14 November with the Evenings Collective at R Bar, where the night unfolds as a theatrical experience. Guests will enjoy the hotel’s signature Punch Bowl Ritual, followed by a vibrant feast of Thai cuisine representing all four regions of the country. Highlights include Thai noodle curry, papaya salad with grilled chicken, Massaman curry, and more. The evening continues with live contemporary music enhanced by traditional Thai instruments, creating a seamless blend of modern rhythm and cultural heritage.
To enrich the cultural journey, guests will be captivated by a special Khon performance from the episode “Tosakanth Rob Phra Ram”, also known as The Battle of Tosakanth. This traditional masked dance drama is one of Thailand’s most revered art forms and is recognized as a national cultural treasure under the vision of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, The Queen Mother. Her Majesty has long championed the preservation and advancement of Khon, leading to its inscription by UNESCO as “Khon, Masked Dance Drama in Thailand”, an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
Through this week-long celebration, Renaissance Bangkok Ratchaprasong Hotel invites guests to uncover Bangkok’s many layers of discovery — where every detail, flavor, and sound tells a story waiting to be explored.
