Thailand is a major stopover point for many international flights, due to prime location, a great tourist industry, extremely cheap prices and a wonderful climate. Hundreds of people visit the country for a short period every day, and unfortunately, a large percentage leave without ever seeing the pampering and exotic luxury that is just outside Suvarnabhumi airport's sliding glass doors! Thailand is one of the spa capitals of the world, and there are some excellent refresher options for those on a time-budget, all within a short ride of Suvarnabhumi airport - as well as some within! We look at the best that the airport hotels in Bangkok Thailand, as well as stand alone spas in the region have to offer for weary travelers.
Novotel Suvarnabhumi Airport Hotel is so close to the airport (only a few minutes walk, or an even shorter taxi ride), that it could really be considered part of Bangkok's airport facilities. The spa at this Bangkok airport hotel, Vous Spa, has seven treatment rooms - so even if several people on your flight have had the same brilliant idea, you can still get a bed! Vous Spa is well aware of how many people come there needing a refresher from long flights, and they've tailored the spa menu accordingly. You'll find traveler oriented items like the Decleor Jet lag Relief Wrap for Legs, the Forget Jet Lag treatment for couples, and the Skin Rescue Facial for those who react badly to airplane air. There are also flight reviver scalps and foot massages, or a back reviver massage available at Novotel Suvarnabhumi Airport Hotel's spa.
If you have a little longer to stretch out and prepare yourself for long hours in a seat ahead, the pool at Novotel Suvarnabhumi is tranquil and cool (unlike the airport itself!), and you can get access to it, as well as a bed to relax on, and a personal shower to freshen up with, at a new hourly room rate. The airport hotel rooms here are warm, tranquil, and private - the very opposite of your neon enclosure for the next several hours. Much better than the standard Bangkok airport facilities!
Only a short taxi ride away is the city of Bangkok itself - and there is a vast array of spas here to choose from. In fact, there is a vast array of everything here to choose from! For those in Bangkok on a stop over, the Hapa Spa Bangkok offers a mix of both Eastern and Western treatments. It is a stand alone spa, so unlike the spa facilities at Bangkok international airport hotels, you'll have to gather your thoughts for a foreign city outside, immediately after being put into a wonderful trance! The Swiss inspired Infrared thermal spa sits alongside Eastern treatments like a 40 minute Hapa body scrub and traditional Thai massages. All ingredients here are organic, and there is a mouth-watering selection of roast herbal teas while you wait - or recover.
Bangkok's airport facilities are also better than many stopover destinations, and while it doesn't afford you the chance to experience true Thailand (like spas at Bangkok airport hotels would), you can also get a quick pick-me-up at the Royal Orchid Spa right inside Suvarnabhumi airport. The Touch of Silk full body massage is popular, or you can get a meridian foot, or back and shoulder massage. One small catch that you won't find with Bangkok airport hotel spas - you need to be flying with Thai airways.
