The Siam Bangkok

Perfectly placed for enjoying the best of this fine city, yet offering a peaceful enclave to relax at the end of a day’s sightseeing, this award-winning urban resort on the banks of the Chao Phraya River is a superb base for your stay in Bangkok.

Owned by the Sukosol family - a dynasty of icons in the music industry in Thailand known as ‘the musical hoteliers’ - the spacious design has been created with art deco styling and trendy interiors punctuated with the family’s own extensive art and antique collection.

With its own pier and 1920s launch, The Siam has the river as its focal point; a complimentary private shuttle boat transports guests anywhere they wish along the Chao Praya River. What’s more, you’ll find you’re within easy reach of the city’s finest attractions at The Siam, with the Grand Palace, Wat Po, Emerald Buddha and Temple of Dawn all less than 15 minutes away.

Your extremely spacious suite or pool villa benefits from having its own butler service, all with super king size beds for a restful night’s sleep. For an experience in itself, ask your Travel Specialist about Connie’s Cottage; a century-old traditional Thai teak house that has been transformed into a sleek, indulgent pool villa.

The infinity pool boasts a view and poolside sunbeds overlooking the river, while the spa and yoga terrace are sublime retreats for a traditional Thai treatment or morning Surya Namaskar class. For authentic experiences, the resort offers a cooking school and Muay Thai boxing ring.

Dining is a cultural journey for the tastebuds, including Chon, the signature Thai restaurant, and Deco Bar & Bistro for small plates accompanied by live music. Café Cha, set in a shady garden, is the place to head to for scrumptious baked pastries and coffee, while a poolside cocktail from the Bathers Bar is a ‘must’.
