About the Property

Tucked into a quiet soi off Sukhumvit, Cabochon occupies a 1948 residential townhouse converted into a jewel-box boutique hotel. Its owner — an avid collector — has filled the space with curated mid-century furniture, vintage globes, typewriters, and artwork sourced from estate sales across Southeast Asia. With only 9 rooms, each named after a gemstone, it feels more like staying in a well-traveled collector's private home than a hotel.
