Mandarin Oriental Bangkok

It was in 1876 that seafarers arriving in Siam first chanced upon the Oriental, a restful haven built on the banks of the Chao Phraya. Fast forward to today, and the Mandarin Oriental still remains the yardstick by which luxury hotels in Thailand are measured. A heritage hotel in every sense, it still occupies its original building and continues to exude its traditional Thai charm. It has also carried forward its legacy of staying attuned to the times, and remains a classy yet cosmopolitan destination. Its river-facing rooms are imbued with quiet sophistication, and accented with luxurious fabrics and rich wooden furniture. You can dine in a different restaurant every day, relax over afternoon tea in the stately authors’ lounge, and spend your evenings with live music and drinks at the bar. But a visit to the Oriental Spa is what you need to make your entire Thailand holiday memorable. A boat ride gets you to the charming four-floor wooden house that is the hotel spa. Your wellness experience begins with a soothing cup of tea and a consultation with your therapist. Rejuvenating facials, massages and treatments follow, inspired by both traditional Thai and modern Western practices. Within the soothing, vintage interior of the Oriental Spa are 10 treatment rooms with private showers and steam rooms, and 5 luxury suites with their own vitality pools and complementary refreshments. A Moroccan Rasul is also part of the property. Treatments offered here range from Thai and Swedish massages, to body scrubs, wraps and age-repair facials, to enchanting signature journeys crafted using Ayurvedic products, aromatherapy, and bespoke massages.
