The Three Standout Hotels of Bangkok...

[pharvey]

Somewhat out of my price range, but an interesting read nonetheless....

"Welcoming more than 20 million tourists a year, Thailand’s capital is a playground for holidaymakers of all kinds – and these swanky hotels make the perfect base for exploring all this bustling city has to offer.

Colourful, cacophonic and a round-the-clock adventure – in Bangkok gilded royal palaces are sited next to shopping malls containing their own theatres and urban parks. Bangkok lives large: it plays in sky bars, night markets and open-air theatres. It prays at Buddhist temples, Catholic churches, ornate mosques and Hindu temples. In a city that serves up one fast-paced adventure after another – travellers will need a place of calm where they can retreat from the melee. Three standout hotels promise a serene respite from the hustle and bustle – all you need to do is choose your holiday style."

Typical Guardian, would prefer Britain to be a nation of peasants run by a politburo, whilst flogging luxury holidays!

Millennium Hilton boasts a 20m infinity pool featuring a bar that serves rambutan smoothies.

Serious Singapore wannabes!
Ditto for the Waldorf Astoria. Guardian readers are clearly far better heeled than I imagined.

The Conrad Bangkok’s Seasons Spa is a fabulous wellness location.

Maybe but do they stock the herb that most modern tourists are seeking?

For mere mortals, I am surprised they did not mention the Ibis.
I suppose this is what you get when you commission superyacht specialists to write your articles.
