Shangri-La Bangkok is a 5-star resort hotel owned by Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts, located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, Thailand. With a quarter of a mile of river frontage, the two towers of the property face the Saphan Taksin BTS Station.

In 2014, the hotel joined the Bangkok Riverside Marketing Partnership (BRMP),[2] a group of eight five-star hotels on Bangkok's riverside with a pledged 150 billion baht in investment in the area in January 2015.[3]

The Shangri-La Hotel, Bangkok was used for the ASEAN summit 2015 hosted by Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha,[4] and by Aung San Suu Kyi and Wen Jiabao.[5]
