Bangkok Tree House

Despite the name, Bangkok Tree House isn’t exactly located in the city itself. Instead, the ‘treehouse’ hotel sits among Bang Kra Jao’s lush greenery and on the bank of the Chao Phraya River. The place is proud to call itself an eco-friendly establishment, with a focus on sustainability and nature preservation.

Inspired by Walden (1854), written by American transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau, Bangkok Tree House embodies the book’s core ideas of simple living and going back to nature.

The concept is reflected through the hotel’s green design and management. For example, using bamboo as the main building material, growing organic greens for the kitchen, opting for renewable energy, and upcycling trash to make full use of them.

Most rooms allow guests to enjoy the natural surrounding and a stunning view from tall balconies. However, the highlight is the ‘View with a Room’ nest, where you can sleep on the outdoor bamboo veranda; under the stars and among the trees.

The walkway is lifted seven meters above ground, and connects to a stylish private treehouse to provide guests with the necessary amenities.
