Fresh from a billion-dollar refurbishment that pushed this slightly dated 1970s landmark back to the top of Bangkok's hotel scene, its Andre Fu-designed rooms now all look out over the green sprawl of Lumphini Park (best savoured with a morning coffee in your snug bay window). The restaurant line-up – from classic Thai to chi chi Italian –is top notch, and the pool and spa hit the spot after a day around town.
