Here’s an opportunity to win a two night stay at Sukhothai Heritage Resort and explore a fascinating historical town.
Enjoy a break in Sukhothai, a historical city located at the edge of the central plains in sight of the foothills of northern Thailand. Called the town of the Dawn of Happiness, this is the site of an ancient capital founded in 13th century that had a lasting influence on Siam’s colourful history.
Against this historical background, Sukhothai Heritage Resort welcomes guests with 68 boutique rooms and suites. Opened in late 2007, the resort resides adjacent to the Sukhothai Airport, 20 km from Sukhothai city itself.
Nearby are the town’s main attractions — the Sri Satchanalai Historical Park and Bang Klang historical town.
Built in a style that replicates Sukhothai architecture and interior designs, the hotel inspires guests with its Thai-style hospitality and charm. It is surrounded by gardens with lotus ponds and a large swimming pool.
There are 52 superior rooms offering garden and swimming pool views and nine deluxe rooms, with ample space and even include an indoor day bed. The six suites are located at the end of each wing. All of them feature separate sitting areas, a terrace or balcony, bathroom with Jacuzzi.
On the menu and worth trying are the Sukhothai noodles, a tasty blend of rice noodles mixed with crispy pork, garlic, green beans, chilli and soy sauce available at the resort’s Lotus Restaurant. A private dinner or party function can be arranged at Sala Sukhothai which can accommodate up to 200 people.
The semi open-air reception area is decorated in a classical Thai style where true hospitality unfolds and the bonus for guests is free WIFI access, available throughout the resort.
