Though it was redecorated by Philippe Starck several years ago, it's good French bones survived intact Рmosaic floor, crystal chandeliers, heavy damask curtains at the windows overlooking the Tuileries Gardens across the street Рand the magnificent space is animated by old-school but friendly service that's as precise as a minuette.

Thailand's top 10 beach hotels and places to stay on a budget | Travel | guardian.co.uk

Thailand's top 10 beach hotels and places to stay on a budget | Travel | guardian.co.uk: "While the nearby gulf islands of Samui and Phangan have been long-term draws for beach-loving travellers, the smaller Koh Tao has only recently emerged as one of Thailand's headline destinations. Primarily Tao is famed for its diving – shallow waters, easy currents, epic corals and whale sharks pull in the crowds – with numerous scuba-diving schools based here. But much of this small island still has a tranquil get-away-from-it-all vibe, and the pick of the places to indulge that atmosphere is the Sai Thong, the only resort on the tiny Sai Nuan beach. Sai Thong's tidy wooden fan-cooled bungalows are simply furnished and all have balconies, hammocks and private bathrooms. The owners are incredibly friendly, the food's excellent and vistas include the almost-private white sand beach and a massive boulder-strewn headland. Superb snorkelling, plenty of nice spots to lounge and an unforgettable arrival by long-tail boat complete the picture. "
