Four Seasons Hotel at Chao Phraya River
— Bangkok
Occupying a pristine stretch of river frontage in Bangkok’s creative Sathorn neighbourhood, the Four Seasons offers a luxurious experience of the city’s iconic Chao Phraya river. Designer Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston championed the riverscape in his design of this ‘urban resort’, with all elements intended to highlight the water views. Cascading courtyards and porous boundaries blur the distinction between indoors and out, allowing guests to feel in harmony with the natural landscape. The 299 guest rooms include river-view rooms, suites with garden terraces and the impressive twostorey Presidential Suite, and all interiors feature elegant touches of Thai influence and artworks curated by Gathy himself.
