Despite being built relatively recently in 2012, The Cabochon perfectly captures the colonial spirit. Located in Phrom Phong, this striking white-coated boutique hotel might look old because many fixtures – from the wooden panels to the French doors – are actually antiques that architect Eugene Yeh has put to creative use. Enhancing the ambience is its courtyard, lush with palm trees and tropical plants and visible from the balconies of the premium suites.
