A hotel that reads like a magazine.

Muan is northern Thai for fun — the warm, unhurried kind. We took a row of six 1930s shophouses on Charoen Krung — once a pharmacy, a tailor, a gold shop and three family homes — kept the teak stairs and the hand-painted signs, and turned the rest into 28 rooms, a ground-floor gallery and a rooftop bar that faces the river.

Every room has a turntable and a crate of records chosen by Bangkok DJs. Tell us the mood you want and we’ll set the light, the pillow and the scent before you arrive. Downstairs, an artist lives and works with us for three months at a time.

Set the room before you arrive.

Pick a room, then the light, the pillow, the scent and the first record on the turntable. The preview changes as you go — housekeeping gets the same card.

    This season: Tanwa Sirisuk, printmaker.

    Tanwa makes risograph prints from tide tables, boat tickets and the hand-painted signs of Charoen Krung. Her studio is on our ground floor — the door is open on Sundays from 2 to 6 pm — and every Gallery Room has one of her prints above the bed.

    “I print the street, then hand it back to the street.”
