The Best Hotels in Bangkok
Bangkok can be an unpredictable place—that’s part of its charm. One thing you can be sure of is finding a suitable place to lay your head. The city’s selection of hotels range from the iconic, centrally located Mandarin Oriental to the luxurious Siam, designed by Bill Bensley and set on the Chao Phraya River.

Nouveau French meets Thai at SO Sofitel Bangkok, which takes its design cues from the Chinese elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Metal, and Wood. The result is like being transported into a fashion shoot or the pages of a decor magazine. Each room and...

Opened in 1879, Mandarin Oriental was Thailand’s first hotel and is still among its best, offering a touch of Far East romance from a bygone era. The high-rise buildings are modern and blocklike from the outside, but the interior shines with...

494 Ratchadamri Rd, Khwaeng Lumphini, Khet Pathum Wan, กรุงเทพมหานคร 10330, Thailand
