Bangkok: Banyan Tree

Sky-high modern luxury with an emphasis on pampering and holistic therapy, all executed with impeccable Thai style. This place is so tall that your ears pop in the elevator as you whiz from the graceful lobby to the super-chic 61st floor restaurant.

Soothing Thai silks, deep earthy colours and warm, dark wood dominate the elegant suites at the Banyan Tree which have separate sleeping and living areas, high-tech business facilities and astounding views. Club guests are treated to extra privileges like a special lounge, massage treatments and priority spa use. At the very top, the huge 'spa suites' - a hit with honeymooners - are ultra-luxurious havens with in-suite spa treatment rooms complete with duo massage beds. You will be wooed with a selection of luxurious treatments plus complimentary spa canapes, herbal teas, exotic fruits and massage lessons. In-suite or out-suite, from the soothing essential oils that fill the whole establishment to its world-class Spa, it's all about sustaining an opulent conception of therapy. If martinis are more your idea of therapy, you can enjoy those too at the dizzying Vertigo lounge.

Author tip

Without question perch yourself up at Vertigo, the 360° panoramic open-air rooftop bar/restaurant. See daylight fade to night and the massive city light up like a Christmas tree before you as you sip cocktails, devour bowls of cashews, and dine upon white linen.

It is red holiday for Abhisit

IT is 10pm on a Wednesday night in Bangkok. And there’s a picnic in front of the residence of General Prem Tinsulanonda, the 88 year-old chief adviser to the Thai king. A “picnic” if you disregard the phalanx of riot policemen standing guard along the concrete fence of Prem’s home, the red-shirted protesters shouting “ok pai Prem (Prem get out in Thai)” and a poster depicting Thaksin Shinawatra as Superman. Free food - fried noodles and bottled mineral water - is flowing. Most of the protesters are sitting picnic-style on the road listening to stinging speeches condemning Prem.
