Without a doubt, Avani is one of the most fabulous places to stay in Bangkok. Sitting storeys above the city and its shimmering water highway, the River of Kings, Avani checks every box. From the incredible variety of dining choices, including an underground enclave where Bangkok's elite once feasted, to an never-ending menu of elixirs and massages at the spa, it's difficult to pick a favourite element! When you've been pampered enough (well, for a few hours anyway), the city's grand, historic sights await, beginning with a longtail boat ride down the Chao Phraya River, ready to stop and explore at any moment.
Avani has 250 rooms and suites, all of which are glossy but never overdone. Their most outstanding feature is the huge picture window with exceptional views of the city below. Inside, beds are draped in starched white linens and open-plan bathrooms are equipped with a powerful rainfall shower. The larger suites enjoy a bathtub as well. There are also two or three-bedroom options with a separate lounge and dining area, decorated in soothing, neutral tones and pops of purple flowers.
We love a fabulous, in-house restaurant but Avani has a bevy of dining spots and you'll want to try them all.
If you're spending a weekend at Avani, don't miss the Sunday brunch at Trader Vic's where mouthwatering dishes are whipped up at live cooking stations.
The hotel is quite removed from downtown Bangkok but there are handy options for getting around and taking in the sights.
