During our Saturday Mornings Sit-Down conversation… host Glenn van Zutphen talks with Antonio Saponara, General Manager of the Capella Bangkok about the draw his city and hotel have for Singaporeans. In 2024 over 1.6 million of them visited the Land of Smiles. Beyond the street food, temples, tuk-tuks, and tropical charm, Bangkok offers something truly exceptional for those seeking something more than luxury. Along the banks of the storied Chao Phraya River is the Capella Bangkok. Since opening in 2020, it has carved out a prestigious place in the city’s hospitality landscape... claiming the No. 1 spot on The World’s 50 Best Hotels list in 2024. With 101 riverfront-facing accommodations, Capella Bangkok blends five-star hotel cred with cultural experiences.
