No extravagance has been spared to equip the Mandarin Oriental’s 358 rooms and 35 suites with the finest furnishings and textiles that Thailand has to offer. Large portrait windows grace each room with stunning views of the river, or of the hotel’s landscaped gardens. Individually styled, each room combines handsome classic décor with modern high-tech facilities.
Nine restaurants and bars vie for your dining enjoyment, offering classic Thai cuisine, fine Italian dining, alfresco seafood and barbecues and a host of international fare. Afternoon tea in the Author’s Lounge is a tradition not to be missed, whilst jazz fans can enjoy cocktails and music in the Bamboo Bar.
The Mandarin Oriental’s spa is regarded as one of the best in the world and is complemented by a steam room, jacuzzi, yoga sessions and a gymnasium. Sporty guests will enjoy the two swimming pools, squash and tennis courts and jogging circuit, whilst the truly adventurous can opt for a Thai Boxing lesson or two.
