Contemporarily luxurious, the Sofitel So Bangkok is an urban design hotel overlooking the lush Lumphini Park. The multi-sensory indulgence begins upon entering the 238-room hotel—a playful interpretation of the five elements of water, earth, wood, metal, and fire is incorporated throughout the public spaces and rooms alike. The centerpiece of the design is Christian Lacroix’s “The Tree of Life”. Our tip: be sure to visit the pool, which is one of the most iconic in all of Thailand.
