"Elsewhere, guests can work out at the gym, indulge in a treatment at the small spa, or take a dip in the 110-foot riverfront pool"

"There’s a good-looking spa and swimming pool, while the renovated teak bar-restaurant – formerly the British Consulate, built in 1905 – dishes up excellent Indian, Thai and Western food"

"The old consulate now houses The Service 1921 restaurant and there's a serene garden pool and a pond where staff place floating lanterns at night"

"Lotus ponds border the 34-meter (112-foot) pool, giving the impression of bathing in a Thai jungle clearing"
