Two Bangkok hotels worth flying to stay in

After Thailand's permanent visa exemption, it's really possible to leave whenever you want. Among them, Bangkok is a battlefield of luxury hotels, with various hotel brands emerging in an endless stream. There are actually only four hotels in the first echelon of Bangkok: MO, Capella, Four Seasons, and Siam. Among them, MO and Capella are the ones I am willing to set off for repeatedly. 1 Bangkok MO (p1-9) For over 100 years, the Mandarin Oriental Bangkok has been one of the most legendary hotels in the world. In the mid-nineteenth century (1876), when Thailand was still known as Siam, this hotel opened. The original name was 'Oriental Hotel', which was the first luxury hotel in Thailand. l The Mandarin Oriental Bangkok is on the banks of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok and is the only hotel that spans both banks of the river. Don't think that the Bangkok MO is old, the hotel's author's wing and garden wing were renovated in 2016, and the river view wing was renovated in 2019. The renovated old hotel is the most charming. The author's wing is the original building of the hotel. The reason for this name is to pay tribute to many world-renowned writers who have stepped in here. After the renovation, the original Nanyang style is still retained, which is the best place in Bangkok MO. The latest one is the River View Wing, which was completely renovated in 2019. Most of the rooms and restaurants in Bangkok MO are in the River View Wing. The room I stayed in before was the Captain Andersen Suite. This is a special room type in Bangkok MO, the only one of its kind. 2|Bangkok Capella (p10-18) In fact, the owners of Capella and Four Seasons are the same, and the two hotels are shoulder to shoulder. The reason why I prefer Capella is because the basic room of Capella has large floor-to-ceiling windows and a private balcony, starting from 61m, you can enjoy the panoramic view of the Chao Phraya River, but if you choose Four Seasons, you need to have a river view for the third level room type. And the basic room is a suite, Capella's living room is equivalent to the executive lounge, guests can come in for coffee at any time, and there are some small desserts. There is a Happy Hour in the bar every evening, and there will be a professional bartender to help you make cocktails. There are 2-3 activities every day, such as morning yoga, afternoon Thai cooking, wine tasting, etc., all of which are free to participate. The hotel SPA also has an indoor soaking pool, which hotel guests can also use for free. Moreover, the location of Capella is very good. Silom Road is one of the oldest roads in Bangkok, known as the Huaihai Road in Bangkok. There are attractions such as the Old Central Post Office, the Old Customs Building, the Prince Theater, etc., and now it is the gathering place of Michelin in Bangkok. The hotel has Chinese butlers, Chinese sales, and Chinese-speaking waiters in the restaurant, which is simply no pressure to communicate in Mandarin.
