The Sukhothai

From AU$ 307.00 single, AU$ 154.00 double/twin per person

If you’re looking for luxury, serenity and wonderful service in the heart of Bangkok, then The Sukhothai is the place to stay. Accommodation is in low-rise pavilion-style buildings set amid six acres of flower gardens dotted with lotus ponds. The architecture is inspired by the 13th century Sukhothai period, which is considered the golden age of Thai art and architecture. The interior design also harks back to the royal style of Thailand’s first kingdom.

Buddha statues, rich Thai fabrics, teakwood panelling and marble detail feature throughout. Rooms are large and decorated with Thai silk, teak and celadon tile. Bathrooms feature wooden floors, a large bathtub and separate shower. Rooms are also well equipped with satellite TV, internet connections, electronic safe and tea and coffee making facilities.

The Sukhothai is home to four fine restaurants, including The Celadon, recently voted one of Bangkok’s finest eating establishments. The Zuk Bar on the ground floor is one of Bangkok’s classiest venues and is especially popular on Friday and Saturday nights. An outdoor 25 metre pool, a gym, and a tennis court allow for an active as well as a relaxing stay. A well-equipped business centre caps off the comprehensive range of facilities provided at the hotel.
