Special! Sep 28 to Sep 30, from $221 per night

Hotel Information: The Peninsula Bangkok stands some 100 meters (300 feet) back from Charoennakorn Road overlooking the Bangkok’s central Chao Phraya River. The lobby opens into a large dining/entertainment area with 10-meter (30-foot) ceilings and windows overlooking the riverfront. A live band plays throughout the afternoon and evening as business and holiday travelers mingle and enjoy light refreshments.

Amenity highlights: The Peninsula Bangkok offers a large outdoor pool adjacent to the riverfront and surrounded by dozens of deck chairs and a poolside bar. Tennis courts are located between the hotel and the road. A fitness center and beauty salon are also on site. A helipad is complemented by a private pier and hotel-provided river shuttle.

Insider tip: The hotel’s riverfront position allows easy access to Bangkok. Riverboat transport around the city can be more efficient than car or train. While the Peninsula’s river shuttle is very useful for accessing the riverfront directly opposite, arranging a private longboat through the concierge allows access upriver to Bangkok’s historical area within 15 minutes.

Spa

Located amongst the hotel’s outer gardens, the Peninsula Spa by ESPA offers an array of treatments and packages within its three-story colonial-Thai building. Fourteen treatment rooms and four suites with ensuite Jacuzzi provide a haven from busy Bangkok with warm contemporary interiors accented by traditional Thai touches.

Thai Yoga Massage (110 minutes):
Thai Yoga Massage follows ancient traditions, handed down through the ages. It incorporates elements of mindfulness, gentle rocking, deep yogic stretching, breathing and rhythmic compressions. In a meditative manner using thumb, palm, forearm and foot pressure, your skilled therapist will stretch and manipulate pressure points and meridians to balance the flow of energy within the body, elongate the muscles and release deep-seated tension. The result is an enhanced sense of well-being, clarity and improved physical flexibility. Loose garments are provided as no oil is used for this massage.

Freedom of Life – Oriental Life Dance (110 minutes):
This Peninsula Treatment Ceremony is a unique powerful massage with a dynamic, free-flowing joint release technique, which replaces stressful tension with immense calm and tranquility.

The skin softening body scrub and cleansing facial with mind-clearing acupressure head massage lead into body-stretching polarity balancing. Body rocking, specific stretches and rotational movements ground and centre body and mind and the powerful free-flowing massage with hot stones and warm ESPA body oils de-stresses and calms. This treatment provides a release of new energy, greater freedom of movement and emotional empowerment of the mind.

Thai Inspired (50 or 80 minutes):
This traditional massage using ESPA oil and warm herbal compresses containing an infusion of Thai herbs including lemongrass, organic cumin, lime and ginger releases tension, stress and blocked energy and soothes body and mind. Followed by an envelopment of marine mud, algae or oshadi depending on guests’ constitution, and an acupressure point head massage, this treatment experience restores total balance and well-being.

Thai Massage (120 minutes):
The ancient skills of traditional Thai Massage have been passed down through the generations. Stretching, manipulations and rhythmic compressions using the hands, elbows and feet allow the therapist to use pressure points to open the flow of energy and elongate muscles, releasing deep seated tension. An improved sense of well-being and physical flexibility will result. Loose garments are provided as oils are not used for this massage.

Balinese Massage (80 minutes):
Warm aromatherapy oils are poured onto the centre of the body and massaged into the skin using long, stretching sweeping movements for deep relaxation. A sophisticated, soothing and indulgent massage.

Pitta Pacifier (80 minutes):
In a state of high Pitta, stressed minds and bodies may be over active and agitated, and benefit from soothing, cooling and calming experience. Exotic ESPA body oils, Bhringaraj herbal concentrate and restorative plant extracts such as Palmarosa and Myrrh bring calm to agitated minds, reduce muscular tension; cool and soothe the skin.

Kapha Stimulator (80 minutes):
In a state of Kapha, the skin may be dull or oily; there is a tendency to puffiness and weight gain and negative reaction to humidity and damp. Balance is retrieved through purification and stimulation to improve energising circulation of the body. ESPA Detoxifying Body Oils are blended with Ashwaganda herbal concentrate and Marine Algae to clarify the skin, stimulate the circulation and mind and warm the body.

A partnership with ESPA consultancy and their exclusive line of natural products suitably blends with the Peninsula Spa’s holistic approach to treatments based on European, Thai, and Ayurvedic philosophies. A state-of-the-art facility, highly-trained staff, and unique signature treatments makes this one of the leading spas in Bangkok.
