Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Bangkok

Established more than 135 years ago, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Bangkok is famed for its illustrious history and undeniably luxurious accommodations. The hotel is situated along the banks of the beautiful Chao Phraya River, where nearly each of its 393 rooms and suites are afforded an incredible view of the waters below. Each set of rooms and suites have their own unique touches, but you can count on all of them to excel in the areas of luxury and comfort. Thai silk linens, Persian rugs, and beautiful teak furniture just scratch the surface of the list of amenities. In case the opulent furnishings aren’t enough, each room comes with the complimentary service of a personal butler. After taking in the stunning sight of the calming Chao Phraya River and the cityscape of Bangkok, check out the renowned Oriental Spa which has an entire penthouse dedicated to Ayurvedic treatments alone.

Dream Suite: As a tribute to some of the famous literary figures that stayed at the Mandarin Oriental in the past, the Authors’ Suites are one of the highlights of the hotel. Each room is designed to reflect the style and personality of a particular author. May we suggest the Joseph Conrad Suite, exquisitely decorated and the only one with its own private terrace.

Don’t Miss: The fine French dining experience at Le Normandie is considered one of the best in all of Asia. This exemplary restaurant specializes in meat and seafood dishes and when combined with the elegant decor, attentive service, and beautiful views of Bangkok, it is certainly an experience not soon forgotten.
