Hotel Review

Channel your inner sophisticate at The Siam, a colonial-inspired hotel whose spectacular architectural design, lush grounds and quirky smattering of vintage furniture encourage guests to settle into the art deco style of yesteryear. Privately owned by one of Thailand’s most famed families, The Siam is packed with their priceless collection of Asian artworks and artefacts, like the two showcased Buddha statues from 16th-century Myanmar. Wander through the jaw-dropping lobby, with three-storey-high palm fronds that stretch regally up to the atrium’s glass ceiling. The enormous rooms meld nostalgic decor with luxury amenities that include a flat-screen TV positioned at the end of the bed for late-night movies. If you can tear yourself away from this comfort, head down to the infinity pool which is located in an idyllic spot along the Chao Phraya river. Striped parasols, ice-cold water and a chic poolside bar will keep you cool.
