THE SIAM HOTEL
The Siam hotel is the brainchild of a collaborative effort between Thai celebrity owner Krissada Sukosol Clapp and award-winning designer Bill Bensley.
Located on the city-side bank of the Chao Phraya in the Royal Dusit district, just a stone’s throw from the Vimanmek Teakwood Palace, The Siam is a Bangkok masterpiece. Styled around Thailand’s Art Deco period this ‘small’ 39-suite hotel sits on three acres of some of the city’s last developable riverfront. The word ‘small’, however, refers only to the number of rooms, which start at 860 square feet with sweeping archways that crest the 15 foot high ceilings. Complete with spa, gym, yoga terrace and hammam-style bath house, two restaurants, a café and an infinity pool overlooking the river, The Siam is a vast and verdant sanctuary.
Additionally, The Siam is proud to offer the world’s first luxury hotel Muay Thai boxing ring as well as the city’s first pool villas. These villas offer guests the ultimate privacy usually reserved for beach resorts. Ten villas feature private terraces with views of their own garden courtyards or the river. The 11th pool villa is the unique and premier category suite, Connie’s Cottage. Sourced by silk tycoon Jim Thompson, Connie’s Cottage is one of four ancient Thai teakwood houses, the remaining three forming the signature Thai restaurant and cooking school, Chon. Next to Chon is the contemporary chic Deco Bar & Bistro, which invites guests into a jazzy atmosphere of superb cocktails and international comfort cuisine – a dining experience to remember. At the end of the property, you will find a private pier affording guests the freedom to explore the river in one of The Siam’s two boats, conveniently bypassing any infamous Bangkok traffic.
