The Sukhothia is a tranquil oasis in the heart of downtown Bangkok, built around a courtyard of carefully manicured gardens and peaceful lotus ponds.  Truly elegant social areas, rooms and suites combine contemporary edge with timeless traditional detailing to blend crisp modernity with Thai aesthetics and supreme guest comfort.  The beautiful infinity-edged outdoor pool is set within lush tropical gardens, and the hotel’s Spa Botanica delivers exotic plant-based treatments for pampering and relaxation.  Poolside dining is a relaxed affair, featuring fresh seafood, smoky grilles and the freshest salads.  Meanwhile, the elegant Celadon was voted ‘Best Restaurant in Bangkok’ by Travel and Leisure magazine. Other dining options include modern Italian at La Scala, sophisticated private dining and the Thimian’s oh-so-tempting gourmet pastries, macaroons and truffles.  Situated on Sathorn road, which stretches from Lumphini Park to the Chao Phraya River, you’re well-placed for exploring the city.  The green oasis of Lumphini park is a ten-minute walk away, and you can connect to the underground network here.  Or the Sala Daeng skytrain station is of equidistance in the opposite direction.
