Where to Stay in Bangkok, Thailand - A Complete Guide
Here’s everything you need to know about booking accommodation in Bangkok.
Consistently ranked amongst the world’s most visited destinations, Bangkok really is unlike any other place on the globe.
Where else can you taste Michelin-starred noodles, treat yourself to creative, award-winning cocktails, meditate in centuries-old monasteries, and end the night dancing on a 60-story rooftop? Whatever experience you’re looking for, Thailand’s exciting capital always delivers.
Like the rest of the city, Bangkok’s hotel scene is equally fascinating. Here, you can choose between ritzy resorts, charming boutique hotels, and lively hostels.
Welcome to the Viking Skaga - one of Viking Cruises’ noble river ships. She takes her name from an ancient Norse myth, where the Valkyrie Skaga rode into battle and escorted the dead to Valhalla, before preparing them to fight in the epic battle of Ragnarok.
A relatively new ship, the Viking Skaga only entered the fleet in 2020. At just 410 feet and carrying 168 guests and 48 crew, she was built specifically to sail down the Seine in France, although the specific itinerary will vary depending on the time of year. I was fortunate enough to join the ship for her week long Christmas on the Seine cruise, which starts and ends in Paris, calling at Vernon, Caudebec-en-Caux, Rouen, Honflour (via an excursion) and Les Andelys along the way.
