Ariyasomvilla

Our boutique hotel in Bangkok deserves an entry of its own. The Ariyacomvilla is a lovely small hotel in the downtown area. It is next to a hospital, and close to busy streets but once we arrive, a sense of peace descends.

The owner's grand-father-in-law built the main structure to live in. When the Japanese took over Bangkok, the military took the house for its generals. After the war, he got the house back and eventually, the family made renovations, an addition and turned it into a hotel. There is beautiful wood in every room, stones as accents, water features in the courtyard and lots of plants and trees. The public areas are small, maintaining the feel of a private residence. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large, quiet and very comfortable.

The restaurant is meat-free but does use eggs and a bit of fish. A surprise, but we enjoyed two delicious dinners and the breakfasts are lovely with a wide choice of dishes.

A hidden gem in Bangkok.もっと詳しく
