During myexotic journey to Bangkok via Paris,I flew Thai Airways’ Boeing 787 business class from Bangkok (BKK) to Milan (MXP). Prior to my flight, I had the chance to check out several of the Star Alliance lounge options in Bangkok, and in this installment, I’d like to review the Thai Airways Royal Orchid Prestige Lounge…

I don't know, Barrista coffee, nice bathrooms, made to order items in the buffet...seems better than most business lounges in Europe and even Japan when it comes to amenities. Love the Japanese airlines, but their business level lounges aren't that great with amenities.

Looks nice ... even the brown beans and sandwiches . Finally a lounge worth visiting .

I'd watch out for the fish soup , however , and stick with the Australian steak .

Did a BKK Star Alliance lounge safari in mid-January 2026 before flying HS-THQ (TG’s Star Alliance-liveried A350) to CGK in J. I started with the TG Royal Prestige lounge, as you can go down the escalator straight after the fast-track immigration facility. Its décor was very rainforest-y, and reminded me of TG’s current safety video, which is all about tropical rainforest vibes. It was morning and I mostly had the fried finger food, but I did manage to find the Khao Tom Mat leaf-wrapped banana dessert, and boy, it was tasty!

I think this was the best lounge of the four I visited — I steered clear of the smaller Royal Silk Lounge — with my order of preference largely being TG > SQ > TK > BR. I might, however, put the Turkish lounge ahead of the SQ lounge. Too bad the TK lounge may never receive Priority Pass access for years, if not decades, to come...

Did they open the lounge just for you or kicked everybody out so you could review it?

Agreed. I was throughly unimpressed with the JL J lounge in NRT.

You must be new here. @Ben goes into the lounges when they first open to review them. That is frequently noted in his reviews.

I like this lounge, was there a few weeks ago. I liked the food selection, especially the fresh fruits. When I was there, some of the food items were better than what is in these pics.
