Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok
BangkokThailand
Bangkok's legendary riverside hotel, founded in 1876, with its historic Authors' Wing and some of the city's best-known restaurants.
Why we recommend it
Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok is one of the most celebrated hotels in the world. Its Authors' Wing, the original colonial-era building, recalls the writers who stayed here, and the hotel's service remains a benchmark.
Its dining, including Le Normandie, and its riverside setting make it far more than a place to sleep.
Location
The hotel is on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River in Bang Rak, near Charoen Krung Road. Hotel boats and river ferries connect easily to the old city.
