The experience starts with understated opulence: A private plunge pool, a sweeping balcony, a decadent bathroom that feels like a feel like minispa and a superstar chef in the kitchen follow. But the trump card of this quietly luxurious property is the pinch-me panoramas of the soothing Chao Phraya River. It will make you forget you're in one of the buzziest metropolises in Southeast Asia.
A hotel with a view provides a sense of place, a memorable experience and a lot of material for your Instagram feed. Capella Bangkok is one such scenic stunner. If you like gazing out at endless expanses of a river, you'll love staying at this luxury hotel nestled on Charoenkrung road a historic and culturally vibrant neighbourhood in Bangkok. The setting on the banks of the Chao Phraya River and away from the main road, offers a tranquil escape from bustling Bangkok.
Interestingly, the check-in is not done in the pristine and ornate welcome area, but in a space dubbed the 'Living Room' tucked behind a sliding door accessible only via a keycard. This is where you are plied with cold towels, Champagne, refreshing cocktails and soothing teas while the staff gets the formalities done.
