Bangkok, Thailand, August 13, 2024 / TRAVELINDEX / The Sukhothai Spa Unveils a Tranquil Oasis in the Heart of Bangkok. A Serene Blend of Ancient Culture and Modern Luxury. Sukhothai (Thai: สุโขทัย, pronounced Su Ko Tai) is renowned as one of Thailand’s seventy-six provinces, nestled in lower northern Thailand. Translating to ‘dawn of happiness,’ Sukhothai serves as the muse for our newly unveiled spa, The Sukhothai Spa, where ancient Sukhothai-style culture is artfully infused into our design and ambiance. Here, we invite guests and members on a journey to a tranquil, spiritual, and soothing haven—a serene escape for relaxation and rejuvenation, with nature’s embrace as our guiding force.
Alexander Schillinger, General Manager of The Sukhothai Bangkok, shares the inspiration behind The Sukhothai Spa’s creation. The discovery of over 7,000 square meters of lush gardens adjacent to the hotel sparked the vision to provide guests with a spa experience immersed in the harmonious embrace of nature at the heart of bustling Bangkok. Collaborating with leading design and architecture firms, we transformed this vision into reality. By strategically positioning the main building to capture captivating views of lush greenery and incorporating traditional Thai houses as iconic landmarks, we’ve elevated the overall guest experience.
Landscape Architecture Design Concept
The Sukhothai Bangkok’s design team seamlessly blends Thai architecture and landscape design, creating an architectural gem that mirrors the ambiance of a hidden village within a lush garden. Drawing inspiration from Wat Sri Chum, a revered temple, our design integrates elements that capture the temple’s grandeur, offering guests a delightful surprise with every exploration of the hotel grounds.
Concept of the Treatment Rooms
Presidential Hammam: The Presidential Hammam welcomes guests with warm-toned materials, including a traditional wooden Thai door adorned with elegant bronze handles. Luxurious green natural stone finishes on hammam beds evoke serenity and harmony with nature. The two-step recessed ceiling pays homage to Wat Sri Chum, creating a captivating focal point. Terracotta mosaic tiles in the wet zone symbolize the texture of a lotus leaf, enhancing the room’s symbolism and elegance.
Hammam Room: Inspired by Middle Eastern and North African bathing rituals, our Hammam Room offers a bespoke and private experience promoting physical cleansing, relaxation, and well-being.
Treatment Room: Located on the second floor, the treatment rooms embrace a simple and direct representation of Thai architecture. Bright and relaxed, with a ‘Pra-Kon’ wall pattern representing the Thai house, the space exudes contemporary beauty. High ceilings and curved shapes add delicacy and softness, complemented by a jacuzzi tub using green terrazzo and light green mosaic.
Our extensive array of services includes massage therapy, beauty treatments, hammams, yoga, Pilates, meditation classes, personalized nutrition advice, and fitness training. The in-house facilities, such as a salt-water lap pool, hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms, a state-of-the-art technology facial room, and dedicated spaces for yoga, Pilates, and meditation, further enhance the guest experience.
