"If only all hotels could be like
this.” Conde Nast Traveler USA. For almost 130 years royalty,
dignitaries and distinguished travellers have all followed the legendary
Chao Phraya River through the heart of Bangkok to the doors of one of
the world’s most luxurious hotels – The Oriental, Bangkok. The
rooms and suites are sumptuous. The restaurants and bars are in a class
of their own. The spa is one of the most beautiful in the world. All are
rich in history, filled with the stories of the celebrated guests who
have made this hotel an essential stop on their world travels for over a
century.
Bangkok
is the cultural and commercial centre of Thailand, a city steeped in tradition
and yet thoroughly modern.
A
vibrant metropolis with soaring skyscrapers, colourful temples, and mesmerising
royal palaces, Bangkok is a city of contradictions. It is home to the world’s
newest and largest airport and yet a place where flowers are still sold from
wooden long-tail boats floating on the Chao Phraya River. Long considered one of
the world’s premiere destinations, Bangkok offers visitors so much to see and do
- tantalizing feasts, breathtaking sites, romantic river cruises, intoxicating
spa treatments - it can be difficult to choose. The best plan is to stay awhile
and enjoy it all. And the perfect place to begin your Asian adventure just
happens to be at the centre of everything – the legendary Oriental, Bangkok.
