Sukhothai, a province located in the lower northern region of Thailand, is celebrated for its rich cultural heritage and natural beauty. The name “Sukhothai” translates to “dawn of happiness,” which perfectly encapsulates the essence of our newly opened facility, The Sukhothai Spa. This spa seamlessly integrates the ancient cultural elements of Sukhothai into its design and ambiance, offering a journey into a tranquil and spiritual haven—an ideal retreat for relaxation and rejuvenation, embracing the soothing elements of nature.
Inspiration Behind The Sukhothai Spa
Alexander Schillinger, General Manager of The Sukhothai Bangkok, elaborates on the vision that inspired The Sukhothai Spa. The discovery of over 7,000 square meters of verdant gardens surrounding the hotel ignited the desire to create a spa experience that allows guests to unwind amid the serene embrace of nature in the heart of bustling Bangkok. Working alongside leading design and architecture firms, this vision was transformed into reality. The main building is strategically positioned to showcase stunning views of lush greenery, while traditional Thai structures serve as iconic landmarks, enhancing the overall guest experience.
Architectural Design and Landscape Concept
The design team at The Sukhothai Bangkok has artfully fused Thai architectural elements with landscape design, resulting in a stunning structure reminiscent of a hidden village enveloped by lush gardens. Drawing inspiration from the revered Wat Sri Chum temple, the design incorporates aspects that reflect the temple’s magnificence, providing guests with delightful surprises at every corner of the hotel grounds.
