MURKH TAILORS: THE MASTER SUIT MAKERS OF SILOM ROAD
A Heartwarming Tale of a Neighbour Who Has Stood Beside Narai Hotel for Over 50 Years.
It was a quiet afternoon on Silom Road, the air still fresh from the rain that had just passed. As we stepped through the door of Murkh Tailors, the owner emerged to greet us with the kind of warm smile that made you feel instantly at home. His shop was a treasure trove of craftsmanship—bolts of fine fabric in varied patterns from floor to ceiling, whilst several exquisitely tailored suits hung in the centre of the room, each one a testament to decades of meticulous skill and unwavering dedication to the craft.
This is the story of Khun Nick, a man who has grown up alongside Silom Road and a hotel that became far more than simply a place to stay—the Narai Hotel, which he has come to regard as his second home. This bond, spanning over five decades, is woven not merely from memories, but from friendship and the living history of one of Bangkok's most storied business districts.
