This urban retreat gives guests the impression of leaving behind the hustle and bustle of the city—yet it’s still located in the downtown area. The hotel’s design reflects a merging of the ancient and the contemporary, echoing its namesake, the Sukhothai Kingdom, and the cosmopolitan city of Bangkok. Be sure to visit the stupas and pagodas in the evening, when they are illuminated by candlelight, giving a romantic glimpse of Thailand as it was centuries ago.
