Capella Bangkok launches a new stay package for Songkran

For this year’s Songkran celebrations, Capella Bangkok launched its exclusive Jai Yen Yen room package

At this riverside haven, guests can delight in the rare Thai summertime delicacy of Khao Chae and cool off with a revitalising cryotherapy facial treatment, designed to provide ultimate relaxation and rejuvenation. All of which are inclusive in its Jai Yen Yen package.

Every April, the Thai cheerful spirit of ‘sanuk’ springs alive as the whole country gears up to celebrate Songkran festival, marking the beginning of a new year on the Thai calendar. During these auspicious days, family and friends gather to ring in the new year with water-blessings and all-round revelry to cherish their time together. It’s an ideal time to indulge in a range of authentic Thai treats offered exclusively during the hot summer month.

Translated from Thai into “keep your heart cool”, Jai Yen Yen is a serene mantra amidst Thailand’s sweltering months. Guests are invited to experience an authentic and rare Thai treat: Khao Chae. Prepared by Thai Chef de Cuisine Kannika Jitsangworn using the original Mon-tribe recipe, this summertime delicacy is made of rice soaked in jasmine water and served with a range of savoury and sweet condiments – a perfect treat to cool off during summer months.

To start the Thai new year fully afresh, ultimate rejuvenation awaits at Auriga Wellness, where guests will be pampered by a special cryotherapy facial treatment to help increase the blow fool and tighten the facial skin. 

If you are still looking for a place to stay during Thailand’s Songkran festival, there is much to be excited about by staying at the Capella Bangkok. This seasonal offering includes not only a stay in a Riverfront Premier room, the Khao Chae set for two, and a 60-minute cryotherapy facial treatment also for two, but also allows access to the hotel’s Vitality Pool area, daily sunrise yoga sessions by the river, and a bottle of complementary house Champagne, among many other inclusions.

The package is available for booking until April 30, 2024 for stays until April 30, 2024.
