A new alternative to change the mood without leaving town, I checked into Centra by Centara Hotel Bangkok Phra Nakhon in the afternoon and spent the rest of the day at its cafe observing local life through the floor-to-ceiling windows while sipping iced tea paired with freshly baked pastries.
Despite being adjacent to tourist hotspots like Khao San Road, the Grand Palace and Wat Bowonniwet Ratchaworawihan, this brand-new hotel keeps guests away from the hectic crowds and allows them to move about with ease and enjoy a sightseeing tour on foot or by tuk-tuk.
