    There is a co-working space in Open House. For visitors, you can spend at 3 hours there to work or study and pay minimum 200 baht purchase or over 350 baht for the whole day. There are also package for membership and the meeting room. There are varieties of food and beverages you can order here. Some selected menu from the restaurants outside are listed. You can only order what’s on the menu. However, you cannot order other foods from those restaurants and no drinks or foods from outside are allowed. The atmosphere is quite good. Perfect for people who love green. You can rest your eyes and look at the plants. The staff is quite friendly. View can be seen at the terrace without going outdoor.

    A cool bookshop which specializes in art books from around the world, including rare and out-of-print ones. The design of the shop is open and beautiful. Even those who aren't a big fan of picture books can enjoy taking photos in this well-designed space. I wished there were more books on Thailand though. Like, there were some but pretty sure there could be more, like street paintings of local artists and what not. The souvenirs section toward the end of the shop was interesting but I'd have appreciated if there are more various price range. Right now it's like only items that can be sold on very high price have been included. If there are more variety in that section (both in term of designs and price), I think more Thai tourists would be happy and excited to buy items from there.

    Beautiful, publicly accessible space with a great collection of books and art. Tons of natural light too even though it's indoors! The restaurants seemed nice though I only got a coffee. There is a co-working area which provides good packages for WiFi and other work facilities. I worked from the common areas. Loved spending time here

    Love this amazing bookstore. There's so many old and new books. Grab a coffee or sit on one of the many couches and read a book.

    Good ambience, great varieties of food selection and plenty of social distance! A must to try “soft shell crab salad” from muteki! For pasta lover, please try home made pasta here at this high end food court place:)

    Super cool and charming place. You can enjoy searching books in this open bookstore, you will find delicious food and coffee with reasonable prices, and you will appreciate the city view through the windows. Definitely a great afternoon here.

    Located at the top floor of the podium, this venue has several good quality restaurants. There is also a cinema at this level and a big book shop. Popular with young trendy kids using the place to get together or study.

    Located at the top floor of Central Embassy, love the concept and the design of the whole level. Clearly an open concept with cafes and restaurants in the perimeter of the whole level while the center portions are for the arts like crafts, ceramic, eco friendly products and paintings, event space, gallery space and also a bookstore.

  • 5/5 Mai N. 9 months ago on Google
    A great place with many cooperative coffee shops and small restaurants inside.

  • 5/5 Brian H. 1 year ago on Google
    Rather peaceful and quiet on a weekday. Lots of comfortable seating areas and the sofa facing the window is one of the best!

  • 5/5 loris f. 6 months ago on Google

    Open House is a fit-for-all space curated to serve everybody’s tastes. Designed by Tokyo-based Klein Dytham Architecture, the interior is one-of-a-kind while the use is widespread. This unique experience makes Open House a collective place where passionate workers share the space with foodies, where crafters meet keen creators, where art students sit between book worms and film nerds, where diligent people join mutual area with happy-go-lucky personages, where families happily hang out with single friends, and where couples and lone souls can enjoy the same relaxed atmosphere. Designed to be multi-purpose, Open House blends general lifestyles seamlessly with specific needs.

    Books and food galore. Plentiful places to sit and eat and maybe catch a quick nap. The bathrooms have a great view of the empty lot behind Central Embassy.

  • 5/5 Jamal Al S. 6 months ago on Google
    Fantastic place offers a place for the book warms, a cultural hub, activities, art and creativity. All in one place with multiple cafes and restaurants. Its a one stop shop

  • 5/5 Benedict L. 8 months ago on Google
    One of the most chilled bookshop ever with great cafes to hang out in. Great co-working spaces with great views!

    What a great space for co-thinking, collaborating, creating and communicating. Spaces intentionally designed for collaborative co-thinking while reading, working, eating, drinking, crafting, etc.

  • 5/5 J.D. 4 months ago on Google
    Open House (6th floor) is worth a visit for sure. No need to pay for the coworking space Wi-Fi (Co-thinking space) as the public Wi-Fi is good enough and they have plugs at most cafés & restaurants !

    Place was so cozy and chic! Went straight after check in from the airport and had some thai tea! Great place to work too!

  • 4/5 The Gal T. 1 year ago on Google
    The Open House located on the top floor of Central Embassy is an open concept space consisting of a bookstore and many little cafes. I love the openess of the space and the super high ceiling. A lovely place to spend an afternoon. This time I picked Paris Mikki cafe for an afternoon treat as the cakes looks just so delicious. I tried the millefeuille which is puffed pastry with cream. It was not overly sweet. I think people who like cream will enjoy this dessert. As for coffee, you are probably better off at Kay’s or Coffeology.

  • 5/5 Prak Nany L. 1 year ago on Google
    It’s a very nice place like a one-stop place for readers, foods, cafe, and photos. Further to this, the view from this floor is very relaxing and calming. It’s a feeling good place. I’ll be going there again when I’m in Bangkok.

  • 5/5 rayer v. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect place to chill. Modern design and cosy atmosphere. Never crowded. Plenty choices of food and drinks while you can enjoy lots of art books. Whenever my friends visiting Bangkok, this is the place I recommend instead of other touristic places.

  • 4/5 Dan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool space, nicely designed. The food options are quite good as well. That said, the book selection could be better.

  • 5/5 Sunny O. 1 year ago on Google
    The best place and a very lovely place to have coffee and cake! Room with high ceilings, lots of books, relaxing ambiance and lighting, beautiful bathroom with the view of Bangkok Skyscraper. Cake and bakery are beautiful and yummy.

  • 5/5 Thuraya Al H. 1 year ago on Google
    This is one of the best places in Bangkok, open space library with restaurants, cafes and museums. I don’t mind spending all day here there are thousands of books and some musical bands. The overall vibe is wonderful

  • 5/5 Pemin L. 6 years ago on Google
    Like the good feel & mood here. Inspired by the decoration and concept. Good for hanging out during the days almost like a chic library. There is one coffee shop in the front that is great 👍🏻 Love that they try to keep up eith some nice restaurants view the view up here

  • 5/5 Cyclops G. 4 years ago on Google
    Very cozy and awesome place, for relaxing while you enjoy the books and also foods & beverages. Falling in love with this place when came here today this morning. For sure will coming back while I am back in Bangkok. One of the must visit place when you are in Bangkok.

  • 5/5 Anika B. 3 years ago on Google
    Cozy place for everyone in the family to chit chat, chill, talk or read. It's a beautifully designed, open space with different areas for different needs, e.g. sofa for reading, tables for eating or working, ball pit for kids to play in (parents need to spend a minimum level at open space to be eligible). I love that there are so many books you can read and buy. There are also a quiet space (co working space) and many cafes and restaurants in the space. It gets crowded during the weekend.

  • 5/5 apiwatbob 2 years ago on Google
    Great and unique atmosphere decorated like those libraries in Europe. There are famous food shops right in the middle of this place. You can enjoy all the books as you will and all books here can be purchased.

  • 4/5 nan s. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Nabila 2 years ago on Google
    A very good place to study, work and just unwind. Pretty nooks for reading too!!!

  • 5/5 Kelly W. 2 years ago on Google
    If you love books, art and open spaces this is the place for you! With many new and some older (now out of print) books, this is a book lovers paradise. It’s also great for artists and crafters. as you can get many of your art supplies and craft materials here. Multiple cafe and bar inside and spaces to sit before you purchase. Staff were amazing friendly and polite, not walking around following customers like many shops in Bangkok. A real treasure of a place. Highly recommended!
