YOTEL made its Thailand debut on 15 October 2026 with the opening of YOTEL Bangkok Sukhumvit, a 250-room hotel within the Cloud 11 mixed-use development in South Sukhumvit.

The property is YOTEL’s 24th hotel globally and its fourth in Asia. It is also the first YOTEL in Asia to participate in Select by Hilton, following an exclusive agreement between YOTEL and Hilton announced in March 2026.

The opening adds Bangkok to YOTEL’s Asian portfolio alongside Tokyo and two Singapore properties, while a Kuala Lumpur hotel is planned for early 2027. The company has also been expanding elsewhere, including a 165-room YOTEL planned for Belfast.

Hotel joins Bangkok’s Cloud 11 development

YOTEL Bangkok Sukhumvit is the first hotel to open within Cloud 11, a creative and mixed-use destination combining studios, event spaces, retail, offices, leisure facilities and public areas. The development is connected to Bangkok’s BTS network, with YOTEL describing a 300-metre skywalk link to Punnawithi station.

Rooms at the hotel range from Premium Queen and twin formats to larger First Class King rooms. Features include YOTEL’s reclining SmartBed™, Wi-Fi, SmartTVs, wireless charging and mini coolers, while guest-service robots are used to deliver items such as bottled water and towels.

Views vary between the rooftop park at Cloud 11, Bang Krachao and Bangkok’s skyline, depending on room position and floor.

Pool, co-working and rooftop dining

Public facilities include YOTEL Swim Club, with an outdoor pool and pool bar, alongside a 24-hour gym. Komyuniti combines all-day dining with co-working and two meeting rooms, with direct access from Cloud 11, while Grab + Go provides drinks and snacks around the clock.

A rooftop bar and restaurant called Fatty’s is due to follow in November 2026 on the hotel’s 23rd floor. The venue is planned with views across Cloud 11 and the wider Bangkok skyline, with further details expected closer to launch.

The hotel is also positioned for access to Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre and central Sukhumvit districts via the BTS Skytrain network.

“Bangkok is not only one of the world’s most iconic tourist cities; it is also a vibrant business hub that is attracting entrepreneurs and digital nomads from around the globe. Cloud 11 is at the heart of Thailand’s growing creative economy and a new investment landmark for the entire country. This makes it the perfect location for the city’s first YOTEL. Our brand has always been about challenging traditional hospitality with intuitively designed spaces, smart experiences and rooms engineered to deliver the best sleep. YOTEL Bangkok Sukhumvit not only gives us the opportunity to introduce our brand to a new destination, but also to become part of a community that is helping to shape its future,”

Phil Andreopoulos
CEO of YOTEL

“YOTEL Bangkok Sukhumvit will be a real game-changer for Thailand’s hotel sector. Our unique location within Cloud 11, combined with fast connectivity, 24-7 services and sleek design, will intuitively meet the needs of today’s travellers who crave complete convenience. My team and I are excited to welcome guests to Bangkok from 15th October,”

Mike Smith
General Manager, YOTEL Bangkok Sukhumvit

First Asian YOTEL under Select by Hilton

Hilton and YOTEL announced their agreement on 19 March 2026, with YOTEL becoming the first independent hotel brand to join the newly created Select by Hilton. YOTEL continues to manage and license its own brand, while participating hotels connect to Hilton’s distribution systems and Hilton Honors loyalty programme.

At YOTEL Bangkok Sukhumvit, Hilton Honors members can earn and redeem points and access applicable tier benefits. The Bangkok opening therefore combines YOTEL’s tech-enabled operating model with Hilton’s loyalty and distribution infrastructure as the brand begins its first phase of operation in Thailand.
