Fodor's Expert Review Banyan Tree Bangkok

After checking in on the ground floor, you'll soar up the elevators to your room at this 60-story hotel—the light-filled suites in the impossibly slender tower all have sweeping city views. Native woods in everything from large desks to walk-in closets give each room a warm glow. A fully equipped spa offers the latest treatments, and a 53rd-floor sundeck beckons with a relaxing whirlpool. The rooftop restaurant Vertigo is one of Asia Pacific's highest open-air eateries.
