Our guests enjoy most our two magnificent outdoor pools, but of course we have much more to offer. Our Sports Centre features a wealth of exercise facilities for the energetic, including weight training, tennis and squash. Or for something to exercise the mind there's our exclusive Thai Cooking School and Thai Cultural Programme. And for parents who want to relax knowing that their little ones are being well looked after, the hotel has its Day Care Centre. And that might be just the opportunity they need to make the most of our on site facilities - including the Oriental Corner, or the Oriental Shops located around the city.

Business Centre - You can depend on us to meet all your business needs during your stay at The Oriental, Bangkok. Our Business Centre has the resources, facilities and meeting rooms of a fully functional state-of-the art office, and is staffed by dedicated professionals who understand the urgencies of business.

Business & Conventions - There are venues. Then there's The Mandarin Oriental Bangkok. Meetings become more than meetings, conferences more than conferences. Give your staff, clients and delegates a truly unique experience.

We offer comfortably appointed private meeting rooms inside our Business Service Centre in a range of sizes for gatherings of two to fourteen participants. But in addition we can also cater for up to 1,000 guests in our more luxurious facilities. Choose from The Ballroom, Embassy Room, Board Room, The Authors' Lounge or Regency Rooms.

Spa

In the words of Harpers & Queen Abroad 2003:
"The spa epitomizes calm, traditional elegance. From the moment you discard your shoes at the door and are handed an iced flannel and a glass of cardamom tea, every aspect of the spa is designed to soothe the soul."

The Oriental Spa was the first of its kind in Asia - and it's still in a class of its own. It remains a temple of well-being for the many guests who indulge in its luxuries. Voted "The Best Spa in the World" by Travel & Leisure magazine, it is situated across the river from the hotel, in a traditional, Thai-style house of beautifully carved, golden teak wood.

As you enter this oasis of tranquillity, you will be taken aback by the soothing aroma that pervades the air. The serenity of the spa will calm your senses, in preparation for a myriad of beauty and relaxation treatments performed by professionals in the privacy of your own luxurious suite. Like the ever popular Oriental Massage, the Jet Lag Recovery Treatment or the Oriental Herbal Pack.

The Oriental Spa is a favourite with our VIP guests, such as HRH Crown Prince Frederick, George Bush, Earl Spencer, Boris Becker, Elizabeth Taylor, Pierce Brosnan and Goldie Hawn. Run by charming spa expert Ms Orawan Choeysawat, it continues to attract guests from around the world, who acclaim it for providing the ultimate rejuvenating experience for body, mind and soul.
