The Dusit Thani Bangkok, often referred to simply as the Dusit Thani Hotel (Thai: โรงแรมดุสิตธานี), was a luxury hotel in the Thai capital's Bang Rak District. The original hotel was the country's tallest building when it opened in 1970 as the first property of Dusit International. Work on demolishing the building started in 2019 and ended in 2020. A new hotel with the same name is scheduled to open on the site in 2023 as part of the Dusit Central Park complex.
