Bangkok and Koh Kood - an exciting combination that Alina Kalisch tested for us...

In April, I had the opportunity to travel to Thailand - a country that deeply impressed me with its
deeply impressed by its diversity and beauty. From the bustling streets and waterways of Bangkok to the tranquil beaches of the south, Thailand offers an exciting mix of culture and nature. Bangkok makes explorers' hearts beat faster, while the islands in the south of the country delight nature lovers. With the two hotels, Capella Bangkok and Soneva Kiri, you can experience Thailand in all its facets - the perfect combination to first explore the country's turbulent capital before relaxing at Soneva Kiri.




Capella Bangkok - insight into the "Best Hotel of the World"

The Capella Bangkok is a real gem and was voted No. 1 of the World's 50 Best Hotels in 2024 for good reason.
World's 50 Best Hotels for a reason. Despite its central location in bustling Bangkok, it can be described as an incomparable oasis of tranquillity right on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. The ideal starting point to experience the vibrant city in all its exciting facets and then relax in the elegant suites with breathtaking views of the river. The hotel combines modern design with classic accents, creating a stylish yet cozy atmosphere. The culinary experiences are particularly outstanding: The Capella is home to several excellent restaurants, including the Michelin-starred Côte by Mauro Colagreco, run by renowned three-star chef Mauro Colagreco.

harmony with nature. The resort blends seamlessly into the tropical surroundings, with
private, sustainably built villas that reflect the natural beauty of the island.
Each villa offers spacious rooms, beautiful private pools and absolute
privacy - ideal for families or couples seeking peace and relaxation. The "North Beach" is a truly beautiful natural beach. But you don't travel to Koh Kood for the beaches, the island is perfect for adventurers who want to get to know and discover a largely untouched Thai island.
