Soho House opens in Bangkok

Soho House Bangkok is in response to the existing loyal Cities Without Houses members living in Bangkok who joined Soho House to meet people in the city's creative community and want access to the houses, bedrooms and studios when they travel internationally. This group of members will play an invaluable role in helping make sure Soho House Bangkok is truly representative of the local community by giving advice and feedback before the House opens.

Soho House Bangkok, the first in Southeast Asia, will open in December within the quaint colonial-style building of the former Eugenia Hotel, hidden on Soi 31 in the Sukhumvit neighbourhood. The House will have areas for eating and drinking, event space and a pool terrace.

Renowned for its authentic showcase of Nepal's legendary mountain hospitality and travel experiences for over 30 years, Sherpa Hospitality Group recently announced the launch of its new brand, Mountain Lodges of Nepal (MLN).

An evolution of the former Yeti Mountain Home and Ker & Downey Nepal, this is a collection of 15 family-owned premium lodges offering spectacular treks along the Great Himalaya Trails. It consists of seven lodges in the Everest region and eight in Annapurna. The evolution includes upgrading existing lodges to offer a premium international hospitality experience, adding exquisite new restaurants, building brand new lodges and adding new one-of-a-kind mountain experiences.

Situated along the idyllic Dudh Koshi river 2,600m above sea level, Phakding Lodge is the first newly transformed lodge to be unveiled since the MLN brand's debut. Its chic exterior and room interiors incorporate large rocks from the nearby riverbanks. Guests can train for their next climb and whet their appetite at the lodge's rock-climbing facility before savouring fresh seasonal produce from the property's vegetable garden at the brand new helipad-turned-restaurant and lounge.
