A Magical Discovery of Asia
A unique combination of Southeast Asia's most magical sites; Borobudur, Angkor Wat and Luang Prabang.
Ariyasom Villa is a beautiful 24 bedroom property in the heart of Bangkok. Built around a lovely 1940's house, it has the charm of a bygone era but with all the creature comforts of the modern world.
Set around a landscaped garden, the low rise buildings are designed in a traditional Thai style with teak wood floors, handmade silks and antique furniture. All rooms have high ceilings, king size beds, en suite bathrooms with bath and shower and plenty of natural light. Some rooms have private balconies.
The intimate Na Aroon restaurant serves a variety of vegetarian and seafood cuisine with the finest organic ingredients in a delightful room overlooking the garden. A small spa is located in a wooden sala and offers a range of traditional Thai massages along with a jacuzzi and a steam room.
Unlike many of the small hotels in Bangkok, Ariysom has a great pool. Flanked by sun loungers on one side and a selection tables, chairs, and parasols on the other, this terrace bar area is a great spot to enjoy a drink or read a book. The property is blessed by plenty of trees and natural shade.
Capably run by husband and wife team David and Ariya, and the house has been in her family since it was built. David himself is vastly experienced in the trade and this project is very much a labour of love for them both. The atmosphere is friendly, laid back and the staff are very charming. It is quite unusual to find a hotel in the city with this level of sophistication and such a relaxed and informal atmosphere.
Deluxe - This is our first really 'upmarket' category. It might be a beautiful tiny hotel with very limited facilities or a 5* resort hotel with all the trimmings; but any hotel in this category will be a well-run establishment with very comfortable rooms, a strong service ethos and excellent food.
Include this hotel as part of your Experience Travel Holiday of a lifetime.
