在曼谷遇見絕美南法風情－The Siam Hotel Bangkok曼谷暹羅旅館 @ 良好印象傳媒 Favorable Impression Media @FIMMEDIA

昭披耶河碼頭迎來了初春的微風，上岸後我走入了一處靜懿的歐式花園，花樹小徑加上令人屏息的泳池…一幢幢的白色Resort躍然眼前；大廳庭園銜接拱橋，挑高的水池迴廊讓人猶如置身世外桃源，我以為，我來到了南法…不過讓我目眩神迷的、其實是曼谷近年來最成功的奢華旅館The Siam。 (內含HD影音)

如果不走水路，The Siam的入口極為低調，大廳僅以枝垂綠意來迎接你，待在這裡挺好，至少日照充足…在小小的櫃台check-in，說是小，卻像極了中國古代的藥鋪，特色具足！

之後，我的Butler(管家)領著我前進，我卻一再停下腳步，「這裡怎麼會有如此可愛的天使壁像！」、

「地下樓層是藏寶庫嗎?怎麼能這麼有神祕感?」，一路上我驚呼連連，直到穿越拱門、進入Main residence(主建築住所)後，我愣在原地、簡直無法相信眼前的景象…。

大片的芭蕉葉矗立直達天頂穹蒼，圍繞著墊高的水池，Main residence每層迴廊就圍繞著這個水池，不管從哪個角度看，都極有閒適的風情，光是看著這個建築藝術造景，就深深地達到了療癒的效果。

據了解，這個主建築的設計靈感來自巴黎奧賽美術館，也非常成功地達到了吸睛的效果，大器恢弘的氣勢，讓這裡的氣場絕對不凡。

當然，The Siam絕不只以此為滿足，迴廊間有設備完整的健身房，還別出心裁地設了一個泰拳擂台，沿途還有圖書館、會議室以及私密的地下樓SPA空間，更有看不盡的古董藝術收藏品，差點以為我來到的是一間博物館。

不過既然是一間獨一無二的飯店，房間當然也是主調。推開厚重的房門，確定是我的寢室嗎?我是不是走錯進了主人的豪宅??

挑高的場域、以黑白兩色為主旋律，整個擁有24坪的大面積空間，靠窗處是一個小客廳，接著就是墊高的大床，視野可以看到落地窗外的河景等景致，非常開闊。

牆上的性感壁畫，很襯整個色調，優雅的風情，會讓人感覺十分放鬆。

大床的背後是辦公桌區域，接著就是非常符合人體工學的大盥洗區，大理石材質的盥洗台、搭配充滿設計感的洗臉盆，美得讓我嘖嘖稱奇。

不過更讓我想尖叫的是浴缸，手工打磨的浴缸就直接放在木質地板上，不騙你，在這裡泡澡、在經過設計昏黃的燈光與法式香頌的催魂下，會舒服地讓人不小心睡著。

廁所和淋浴間的設計也充滿著復刻的美學，格調非常典雅。

出了主建築後，經過池水，來到戶外的圓形拱門、搭配曲徑迴廊，又彷彿進入了莫內的花園。

早餐含在每晚住宿房價內,採用奢華飯店才有的a la carte(單點)點餐方式,有專人服務。

戶外的resort更是別有洞天，以中國元素、裝飾藝術再加上泰式經典等主題來打造，推開中國式的門把，就是一個屬於自己的室外花園，

泰式傳統的臥躺椅旁、就是屬於自己的私人小泳池，聽著潺潺的水池聲流動，看著滿室馨香，讓擾動的心都跟著沉靜下來了。

挑高的客房以黑白色系為主調，兩側窗戶的設計，讓自然的光線可以透進來，整個設計成「泰國風」的味道，配上木質地板以及加高的大床，豈是「舒適」兩字可形容！

同樣以黑白兩色為設計主角的奢華大浴室，挑高空間的磅礡氣勢，大器的空間內又處處流露著東方設計的復古美學，交織出”讓人想待在其中、一點也不想出門”的氛圍。

碼頭、餐廳、再加上無邊際的游泳池...，塑造出如貴族豪宅的後院，恐怕也是昭披耶河畔最閒適的風情之一。

The Siam Hotel的幕後老闆，其實是曼谷家喻戶曉的明星世家，從母親KAMALA SUKOSOL、到女兒MARISA SUKOSOL NUNBHAKDI和兒子KRISSADA SUKOSOL CLAPP都是歌星，為了家族的夢想及展示家中的收藏，他們買下Dusit區域三英畝的地，打造了The Siam Hotel，其中還包含了復刻Jim Thompson當年的古屋。

而整個飯店其實也是個大型博物館，處處展示SUKOSOL家族的藝術收藏，特別還有KRISS在世界各地蒐羅而來的古董珍品，反映了曼谷最輝煌的時期國王拉瑪五世的裝飾藝術(Art deco)及文化歷史的情懷。

The Siam was conceived by creative director and celebrity Krissada Sukosol Clapp, together with globally acclaimed architect and interior/landscape designer Bill Bensley, one of Architectural Digest’s ‘Top 100 Designers and Most Creative People’.

Inspiration & palette

With art in mind for the Main Residence, lead architect Khemvadee Paopanlerd drew inspiration from Paris’ Musée d’Orsay, stating that “My work is an expression of how I wish the world could be: serene, lush in natural beauty, yet quite simple.”

To emphasise this, a muted colour scheme of black, white, cream, grey and neutrals has been combined with natural textures such as wood, weave, leather and stone, not to mention sprawling gardens and verdant shrubs throughout.

Ambiance

The overall setting reflects the period of Bangkok’s greatest grandeur, under King Rama V (circa 1853-1910), with Art Deco accents.

Of The Siam, Bill says: “My studio team has designed some 150 plus hotels and resorts worldwide and we have received many accolades. But I am most excited about The Siam, as I know it is going to turn heads on the competitive hospitality market of tomorrow.”

The Siam boasts a fully equipped gym with floor to ceiling mirrors and windows overlooking a peaceful, neighbouring monastery.

GYM

‘Muay’ is a traditional Thai sport and one of The Siam’s specialties. The word ‘Muay’ derived from Sanskrit means ‘to bind together’. It is referred to as the Art of 8 Limbs because of its use of punches, kicks, elbows and knee strikes. Muay Thai is not simply a fighting sport, it also helps to increase your fitness and emotional condition.

The Siam’s gymnasium is the first professionally equipped, luxury Muay Thai gym in Bangkok.

The Sukosol Hotels group comprises The Sukosol, Bangkok; Siam Bayshore, Pattaya; The Bayview, Pattaya and two new developments, The Siam, Bangkok and Wave, Pattaya.

Formerly known as Siam Hotels & Resorts, our family name was chosen to parlay our past success and hard-earned respect into a new consolidated brand and philosophy. Whereby our mission is to bring to the world the best collection of bespoke and soulful hotels in Thailand.

Each hotel has a style and character of its own, imbued with art, design and a harmonious blend of East and West; yet all of them share a service philosophy of genuine care and down-to-earthness – “a luxury you can touch”.
