Bangkok is always a good idea.

I believe most of us have visited Bangkok and they are known for their amazing local food, long-list of instagrammable cafes, and cheap shopping deals at their markets. So many reasons to love Bangkok. 

I visited Bangkok last 2 months  ago during Songkran festival with the invitation by SO Sofitel Bangkok. The experience was once in a lifetime. Let me put it this way, I think I would prefer to get wet in a pool party rather than on the street with my makeup and outfit being splashed by random people. They even go after me if they see I'm in my dry clothes. TOTAL NOT MY KIND OF PARTY.

Apart from the Songkran, the rest of the itinerary was just amazing. 
We stayed in the Water Room under SO Sofitel, which there is a bathtub facing Lumpini Park. There are 3 other room types with a different concept covering Earth, Wood, Metal and Fire. 
The Metal Room wasn't too bad as well. 

The pool view.

SO Spa is always a good idea to cure your soreness after a long hour flight. 

You can even get your caffeine fixed at KOF, which just located at the G floor of the hotel. 

Ever since I pick up gym, I will try to work out whenever I travel. SO Sofitel gym will be one of the hotels that offers such extensive gym facilities.

I have no words for this view. 
The hotel also offers fine dining experience at Park Society (highest floor). 

Apart from the activities in the hotel, I also check-listed some cafes, bars and local food. The only pitfall travelling to Bangkok during Songkran is most of the restaurants will be closed. If you are a foodie, don't come during this time. 
Cafe: Boyy & Son

Cafe: Featherstone

Local eats: Khao Tom Pla Kimpo
Local This long-standing boiled rice and fish spot is near Asiatique. The distinguishing element is the clear broth, made mainly from pork and fish bones topped with garlic chips.

Bar: Sugar Ray, You've Just Poisoned
Entrance can be creepy, girls who are afraid of toys are not suggested to visit this bar alone *wink*. 

Restaurant: Issaya Siamese 
Fusion thai dishes that offer less spicy taste. Their highlight is probably their dessert show. 

Watch more visuals via my Bkk video too. 
Till next travel destination.
