Authentic Thai-style luxury in Bangkok

VERIFIED LUXURY

Learn How We Inspect

Anantara, derived from the Sanskrit word meaning “uninterrupted” or “without end,” is known for exporting its Thai resort style around the world. Anantara naturally excels at Siamese luxury in its homeland, with Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel. Although it opened in 2015 (it took over the building from the Four Seasons), the hotel already feels settled into its plush surroundings, exuding a classic, timeless feel.

While the hotel is often bustling with tourists due to its central location on Rajadamri Road, it’s also a firm favorite with VIPs. Forget celebrity-spotting — try president-spotting, with heads of state including Barack Obama and George W. Bush seen taking a sojourn at the fittingly named Anantara Presidential Suite.

Our Inspector's Highlights

Anantara arranges excursions to nearby tourist spots like the temples, Grand Palace, Erawan Shrine and the floating market to get a taste of the historic city sites.
Take refuge from the frenetic city in the open-air garden and cocktail lounge for a refreshing drink to cap off a day of exploring.
For active visitors, there’s the Olympic-size outdoor swimming pool, tennis and squash courts, barbershop and 24-hour health club.
Anantara provides a complimentary smartphone — and it allows unlimited local and international calls to 10 destinations, unlimited 3G connectivity, and is pre-loaded with useful features like Instagram, GPS and even translation services.
The harmony and soothing comforts of the second-floor spa offer a quiet, relaxing escape from the city. Services draw inspiration from Asian- and Western-inspired massages and scrubs.
