Floral Journeys
In Thai, “Kandhavas Palace” spells “scented residence”. And indeed, our Princess Valaya Alongkorn was passionate about indigenous flora and plantations. What could be more appropriate than a 30-minute demonstration of how to make the perfect Siamese Potpourri or fold a royal lotus? It’s all part of our Floral Journey curated by our concierge.
Floral Journeys, Option A: Siamese Potpourri
The Siamese Potpourri, used to scent royal residences, dates back to the 16thcentury Kingdom of Ayutthaya. We use its authentic formula, preserved in a poem composed by a princess, to reprise the historic art and enchanting aura. Discover how it also reflects the then-Kingdom of Siam’s contacts around the region through the use of Javanese “Bu-nga Rampai”, bu-nga meaning “floral” and “rampai” meaning miscellaneous in classic Javanese.
After whichever activity you choose, you may also opt to complete your journey by enjoying a specially created royal afternoon tea.
A Voyage to Our Royal Roots
Join our Concierge team on a 40-minute “Explore our Royal Roots” tour of the hotel that reveals its treasured heritage. You’ll discover how the location previously hosted a former royal residence, Kandhavas Palace, how that fact has shaped the hotel’s design, and how the passions of the then-resident, Princess Valaya Alongkorn, inspire so many enchanting features.
Floral Journeys, Option B: The Royal Art of Folding Lotuses
In Thailand, the Royal Lotus is a symbol of purity worthy to pay homage to a Buddha Image and make offerings to Buddhist monks in various religious ceremonies. As for the royal art of folding lotus flowers, it is traced back to the Kingdom of Sukhothai in the 13th century when royalty began using lotuses in religious festivals, after which the practice spread throughout the land.

Built on the site of Kandhavas, the Palace of Princess Valaya Alongkorn, the hotel has been lovingly and extensively designed to celebrate its royal heritage.
The story of Princess Valaya Alongkorn, begins with her father, Chulalongkorn Rama V - the “Great Beloved King”. His reign was pivotal to the shaping of Siam and later Thailand and his educational interests undoubtedly influenced the young Princess.
While much is recorded about the Chakri Dynasty, Princess Valaya Alongkorn was truly special. Known for her love of books, Princess Valaya as a young girl would disappear for hours lost in literature. What started as a pastime, became a passion that she shared. Princess Valaya was pivotal in establishing one of the first all-girl schools in Thailand, even donating the land to establish a university specializing in training Thai women to become teachers and educators.
Princess Valaya’s creativity extended far beyond her skilled chess-playing and appreciation of literature. At the coronation ceremony of Queen Rambhai Barni, it was Princess Valaya who designed the dress that became a sensation.
Renowned for her ability to elevate European styles with a Thai aesthetic, Princess Valaya’s influence was seen in everything from interior design to flower arranging. It was her mastery of these pursuits that are integral aspects of the modeling of The Athenee Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Bangkok.
A stay in The Athenee Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Bangkok invokes a feeling of long-lost tradition and nostalgia. The hotel has achieved their design goal to bring back the Thai-Colonial style of Princess Valaya Alongkorn's era, sympathetically combining it with the modern world defining “Thai Transitional Luxury”.

Medical Tourism
As one of the world leaders in medical tourism, Bangkok offers an attractive and reassuring blend of affordability and convenience as well as the highest standards of medical care. Forget long waiting lists and unaffordable procedures, medical visitors to Bangkok often pay less than half the price of the same procedure in their home country, all the while enjoying the same or often higher level of care.
What Is Medical Tourism?
Medical tourism is traveling to another country for a medical procedure, whether it is minor or major, a necessary health procedure or a beautifying cosmetic procedure. Medical tourism has seen a steady growth throughout the world as health care prices in many countries continue to rise or a shortage of medical professionals or suitable facilities creates long waiting lists. Medical tourism affords patients the chance to combine a holiday with a procedure or simply recuperate in a relaxed location with a higher level of care.
Why Bangkok for Medical Tourism?
Recent research has shown that factors such as more affordable pricing for both hotel accommodation and treatments as well as a world-class level of patient care has put Bangkok as a global leader in medical tourism. In 2010 alone, an estimated half a million patients traveled to Thailand for medical treatment.
Partnering With Bumrungrad
Bangkok’s Bumrungrad Hospital was one of the first hospitals in Thailand and Asia to be recognized for its exceptional standards of patient care and treatments by the JCI. The Joint Commission International certification (JCI) is recognized as the gold standard in medical certification and serves as a reassurance for first time medical tourists.
Luxury Respite
The Athenee Hotel has partnered with Bumrungrad Hospital to ensure that both your pre and post procedure care is in the most relaxed environment and that your specific needs are looked after.
