The lobby of the Plaza Athenee Bangkok, A Royal Meridien Hotel looks more like Paris than Bangkok, with a magnificent chandelier and gold Art Deco staircase. On level 3 you will find a host of fine dining restaurants, including our favourites The Reflexions which specialises in French Cuisine and Smooth Curry, which serves exquisite Thai classics. On the fourth floor you can relax: the free form swimming pool has a Thai feel to it, surrounded by plenty of greenery and complete with its own pavilion to provide shade. On the same level you will find the outdoor running track and the well-equipped fitness centre. Always keen to bring new experiences to its guests, Plaza Athenee offers an Unlock Art Pass, with free entry to a local gallery that specialises in Thai modern art.
