Spa Profile: Anantara Spa at Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel
Located in the heart of the Southeast Asian metropolis of Bangkok, Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel combines iconic design and gracious hospitality with a stunning location surrounded by lush gardens that is steps away from the city’s major attractions. The property has both classic Thai-style and contemporary accommodations, in addition to award-winning gastronomy options and other amenities.
Anantara Spa offers a prestigious escape from the fast-paced city scene with exquisitely designed traditional Thai architecture. Guests can enjoy a relaxing treatment by the pool, in the privacy of their room or in one of the spa’s luxurious treatment suites. The menu includes a variety of ancient therapies from across Asia, Western beauty treatments, and carefully crafted journeys for optimum well-being.
We chatted with Kanatcha Buntongkaew, Anantara Spa Manager at Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel, who shared details about the spa’s amenities, treatment recommendations, insider tips, and more.
Why You’ll Love It: Our guests especially love the traditional Thai architecture and interiors of our Anantara Spa and Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel located in the heart of one of the world’s most enigmatic capital cities offering a luxurious retreat to engage in soulful, original spa journeys.
Key Features: The spa features two couples’ suites, one deluxe couples’ suite, and four single treatment suites that each feature a shower, and some also have a private Roman-style tub or steam room. The manicure and pedicure salon features luxurious chairs with a relaxing massage feature.
Bonus: Upon arrival and pre-treatment, our guests enjoy warm ginger tea and mixed nuts while completing a health assessment and personal preference consultation.
Insider’s Tip: When booking the 90-minute Anantara Signature Massage, guests should request our all-new signature massage oil that supports the body’s natural defense system. In this post-COVID world, Anantara Spa has created a specially formulated massage oil that contains clove oil, citrus Aurantium peel extract, eucalyptus oil, and rosemary—all of which are well known for their immune-boosting and antibacterial qualities.
This total body toning massage oil naturally improves the body’s biological defense system. The active ingredients of clove oil and citrus Aurantium peel extract boast a natural ability to protect against a wide range of bacterial cells, fungi, and viruses, while the eucalyptus oil and rosemary oil feature natural inflammatory properties and immune system boosters which aid in creating white blood cells that combat pathogens and disease.
Anantara Spa’s new signature massage oil gives our guests peace of mind knowing they are in safe hands and that the main ingredients of the oil provide an extra boost for their immune system and can help fight viral attacks through the power of antibacterial pure essential oils.
Unique Treatment: At Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel, we immerse travelers in Thailand’s rich cultural heritage. In the luxurious sanctuary of Anantara Spa, journeys move beyond relaxation to offer nostalgic pampering, highlighted by the signature 90-minute Siam 2482 treatment. This unique therapy is exclusive to Anantara Siam and was inspired by the Kingdom of Thailand’s history. BE 2482 is the year the kingdom changed its name from Siam to Thailand—to commemorate this momentous date, Anantara Spa developed a signature massage to reflect the cultural fusion of that time, incorporating healing traditions from Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, and China.
Four distinctive massage styles provide unique pathways to holistic well-being. Two bamboo sticks are used to invigorate the circulation. Stretching and pressure point techniques enhance flexibility and energy flow. Eight herbal compresses, each wrapped in a fabric of healing indigo, soothe tension, aches, and pains. Foot reflexology promotes overall wellness by stimulating reflex zones on the feet that correspond with organs in the upper body. The intuitive hands of each highly-skilled therapist coax guests into deep relaxation.
Combining ancient techniques with a signature oil blend, the Siam 2482 treatment uses Anantara Spa’s own product, Divine Peace Detoxifying Massage Oil, helping to combat stress and detoxify with juniper, lemongrass, and lemon oils, while nourishing skin with sweet almond and sesame oils. This therapeutic oil blend is part of Anantara Spa’s award-winning product range, which is entirely free from parabens, SLS, SLES, silicone, and preservatives, and crafted from 100% natural pure plant essential oils and extracts that have been carefully sourced throughout Thailand.
A signature experience from start to end, the Siam 2482 treatment concludes with a mindfulness ritual. Two gold leaf patches are placed on the wish area of the left arm and left side of the chest to encourage a quiet, peaceful state of mind.
Splurge Treatment: The Himalayan Thermal Therapy harnesses the ancient energy of the Himalayan mountains and avails artisan hand-carved Himalayan salt stones to dissolve all your mental and physical tension. These ethically sourced stones are applied all over your body to reintroduce 84 trace minerals and elements, which promote the ultimate state of equilibrium while encouraging your body’s natural detoxification. Transcending into a state of total relaxation, a facial massage using Rose Quartz Gua Sha crystals relieves muscle tension as it stimulates circulation, leaving your skin with an eternal glow. This full-body ritual is crowned with a deeply rejuvenating head massage, focusing on Marma points which de-stress the nervous system and refresh the mind.
Featured Products: Anantara Spa brand products, which are chemical-free and made from natural ingredients sourced in Thailand. We also use French luxury skincare brand, Biologique Recherche.
