Mandarin Oriental Bangkok

Built in 1876 and still the classiest hotel in Bangkok, the Oriental, the preserve of wealthy travellers and cultural icons, is perfectly cosmopolitan while exuding traditional Thai charm – but the excellent service is what puts this institution into a hospitality league of its own.
