So you’ve finally done that day exploring the Old Town, your feet ache, and you do not want to queue up with the elephant pant brigade at Wat Pho.
Head to new boutique hotel The Raweekanlaya, where The Imperial Spa only employs therapists who cut their teeth at the Phothalai spa school, which derived all its methods from Wat Pho in the first place.
The signature Touch of Raweekalaya Massage takes you through either a 60- 120-minute (B1,200-1,800) journey of bliss using wonderfully scented warm oil by Donna Chang. Or go for a simple foot, head and shoulder massage at B550, or Thai massage at B600—shop-house prices in a colonial-luxe, boutique setting.
