雅高酒店集团自豪地宣布，第一家东方快车（Orient Express）酒店将在曼谷的王权大京都大厦（King Power Mahanakhon Building）开业。东方快车品牌以悠久的历史和奇幻的想象力闻名于世，该品牌立足未来，突破创新，致力于打造一系列知名酒店，将传统、神话和冒险相结合。
AccorHotels is proud to announce the first Orient Express hotel will open in the landmark King Power Mahanakhon Building in Bangkok. Imprinted in both history and imagination, the Orient Express brand has been reinvented for the future, with a vision to build a collection of prestigious hotels, steeped in tradition, myth and adventure.
雅高酒店集团主席兼首席执行官塞巴斯蒂安∙巴赞（Sébastien Bazin）表示：“东方快车一直都是不同世界间的通行护照，它创造的神奇列车之旅历史悠久，吸引了众多旅游和电影人士，为人们带来了非凡体验。这种将东西方、传统与现代、好奇与文化相结合的方式将成为全新东方快车酒店的特征，我们很高兴能将这种精彩十足的冒险精神传递给当代旅行者。”
Sebastien Bazin, Chairman and CEO of AccorHotels said: “Orient Express has always acted as a passport between worlds and a trip on these legendary trains was historical, touristic and cinematic with an inimitable experience. This linking of Occident and Orient, of history and modernity, and of curiosity and cultures will be a hallmark of the new Orient Express Hotels and we are excited to bring back this spirit of luxurious adventure to today’s modern travellers.”
王权集团（King Power Group）首席执行官Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha表示：“在王权大京都大厦率先推出东方快车酒店，从真正意义上实现了我们创建特别地标、为城市锦上添花的愿景，它为泰国和全球酒店行业开启了一个新的里程碑，同时也让泰国一跃成为真正誉享全球的创新目的地。
Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha Chief Executive Officer of King Power Group said, “The launch of the world’s first Orient Express Hotel at King Power Mahanakhon truly completes our vision of creating an extraordinary landmark that celebrates the city and adds a new milestone to Thailand and the world’s hospitality industry, while further elevating Thailand to a truly world-class destination.
王权大京都大厦一直力求打造与众不同、令人难忘的项目，希望在各个方面都表现出众。我们热情欢迎来自世界各地的游客，致力于奉上体贴周到的酒店服务、备受赞誉的美味佳肴、别具一格的购物体验及曼谷的美妙风光，倾力打造个性十足的地标，让泰国旅游业更受全球瞩目。”
“King Power Mahanakhon seeks for all of its projects to be different, impressive and distinct, exuding excellence in every dimension. We look forward to welcoming visitors from all over the world, and placing Thailand’s tourism scene on the global stage through a landmark that combines exceptional hospitality, award-winning cuisine, a unique shopping experience and Bangkok’s spectacular views.”
雅高酒店集团亚太区主席兼首席执行官艾森柏（Michael Issenberg）表示：“能够将东方快车品牌融汇多元文化的遗产、以及神秘魅力和异域风情引入曼谷，我们感到非常自豪。东方快车重新诠释了1900年代的火车旅行，它用连接东西方的第一列卧铺车为旅客们提供了此前未曾享受过的舒适体验和用餐服务。我们希望把这种精致华丽的风格引入新开业的东方快车酒店。”
“We are proud to bring the multicultural heritage, mystery and exoticism of the legendary Orient Express brand to Bangkok” said Michael Issenberg, Chairman and CEO AccorHotels Asia Pacific. “Orient Express redefined rail travel in the 1900s, introducing the first sleeper cars linking West to East and delivering unprecedented levels of comfort and dining. We look forward to bringing this same luxury and refinement to the new incarnation of Orient Express hotels.”
原始的东方快车列车以高标准的精湛工艺、别出心裁的创新元素及美妙的用餐体验而闻名，因此曼谷大京都大厦东方快车酒店将沿袭这些享有盛名的各方面要素，重新诠释奢华旅行的艺术。
The original Orient Express trains were famous for the highest standards of fine craftsmanship, the newest innovations and the most exquisite dining and so Orient Express Mahanakhon Bangkok will bring together the best names in these fields to reinterpret the art of luxury travel.
著名设计师Tristan Auer负责重新演绎东方快车原列车的装饰艺术（Art Deco）风格和植物图案，悉心打造出繁华都市中心的现代摩天大楼。华丽的卧室和精美的浴室将会为曼谷带来全新的装潢风格和奢华体验。
Esteemed designer Tristan Auer has been tasked with reimagining the Art Deco stylings and plant motifs of the original Orient Express carriages into a modern skyscraper in the heart of a bustling metropolis. The sumptuous bedrooms and exquisite bathrooms will bring new levels of style and luxury to Bangkok.
入驻大厦的两家知名餐厅分别是二层的Mott 32（卅二公馆）和五层由名厨David Thompson执掌的Mahanathi餐厅。David Thompson对泰式料理和烹饪有着出色造诣，凭借精湛技艺与专长闻名于世。Thompson在全球各地建立了多家备受赞誉的餐厅，包括伦敦和曼谷的Nahm、亚洲和澳大利亚的Long Chim以及香港的Aaharn。著名的Mott 32也会在曼谷大京都大厦东方快车酒店以时尚餐厅和鸡尾酒吧的形式，为曼谷带来风味迷人的现代粤式佳肴。Mott 32得名于纽约的唐人街Mott Street 32号，这里坐落着于1851年率先在纽约开业的中式便利店，现已成为繁华热闹的唐人街。
Two signature restaurants will include Mott 32 on level 2 and Mahanathi by David Thompson on level 5 of the hotel. David Thompson is known worldwide for his skills and expertise in Thai cuisine and culinary. Thompson has established award-winning restaurants across the world, Nahm in London and Bangkok, Long Chim in Asia and Australia and Aaharn in Hong Kong. Famed Mott 32, will also bring an exceptional modern Cantonese dining experience to the city with a contemporary restaurant and cocktail bar in Orient Express Mahanakhon Bangkok. Mott 32 is named after 32 Mott Street in New York - the site of NYC’s first Chinese convenience store, which opened in 1851 and is now a vibrant Chinatown in the city.
这座综合性大厦内建有新近投入使用的大京都大厦人行天桥和泰国最高的观景台（位于74、75和78层），王权免税店和零售店位于一至四层。位于76层的顶层餐厅和酒吧坐拥美不胜收的泰国风光，届时王权大京都大厦将成为曼谷的社交中心，正如20世纪初东方快车是各界名流的聚集地一样。
Within the complex is the recently launched Mahanakhon SkyWalk, Thailand’s highest observation deck on levels 74, 75 and 78, while a King Power Duty Free and Retail occupies levels 1 to 4. A rooftop restaurant and bar on level 76 will also provide some of the best views in Thailand, making the King Power Mahanakhon Building the epicenter of Bangkok’s social scene, just as the Orient Express was the place to meet the most fascinating people at the beginning of the 20th century.
逾135年来，东方快车不断为众多作家、艺术家和电影导演带来创作灵感，吸引了诸多名流贵宾，包括约瑟芬·贝克、阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦、可可·香奈尔、格雷厄姆·格林、欧内斯特·海明威、玛琳·黛德丽和玛塔·哈里。阿加莎·克里斯蒂创作的同名小说《东方快车谋杀案》进一步提高了列车的知名度，阿尔弗雷德·希区柯克执导的电影《贵妇失踪案》和007电影《俄罗斯之恋》则使东方快车更加声名远扬。For over 135 years, Orient Express has inspired authors, artists and film directors, with famous guests including Josephine Baker, Albert Einstein, Coco Chanel, Graham Greene, Ernest Hemingway, Marlene Dietrich and Mata Hari. Agatha Christie made the trains even more famous with her eponymous novel Murder on the Orient Express, while Albert Hitchcock’s The Lady Vanishes and James Bond’s From Russia with Love further immortalised the Orient Express name in the popular imagination.
此外，东方快车出色的员工和时尚的制服也家喻户晓。这些将成为所有东方快车酒店的个性特征以及整个行业优质服务的标杆。
Another hallmark of the Orient Express has always been the excellence of its staff and the prestige of the uniform. These signatures will also be present in all Orient Express Hotels, setting the highest standards in impeccable service for the industry.

该酒店将于2019年第四季度开业，即东方快车初次驶离巴黎后的第136年。
The hotel will open in the last quarter of 2019, 136 years after the Orient Express took its maiden voyage from Paris.
