THE HISTORY OF THE BOAT SUITES
For many years now tourists have chosen The Imperial Boat House
Hotel as the ideal destination to spend an exotic tropical holiday in
Thailand. One of the reasons for this is the unique concept of the hotel
with its strong nautical theme and most notably, the thirty-four authentic
rice barges. These were once fully functional river barges that
operated along Thailand's famous Chao Phraya River or River of
Kings.
As you may well know the old name for Thailand was the Kingdom of
Siam, a name synonymous with the spice trade made famous by such people
as Marco Polo. The principal means of transport in those days was by
water and so expansive were the waterways in the capital, that it was
once known as the Venice of the East. With the abundance of teak in
Thailand at that time and the many qualities of this wood, it was the
natural choice for the construction of the rice barges and continued
to be so up to recent times. Thirty-four of these working boats were
transported across the Gulf of Thailand to the island of Samui to take
up residence at The Imperial Boat House Hotel. Never having been sailed
on seawater before, the journey took its toll on these natural treasures
and painstaking restoration was required. After the exterior had
been completed work began on converting the barges into luxury
suites.
The great attraction of the boat suites is their rich heritage
and their natural wooden construction, indeed they are the only ones
of their kind in the world today! The antiquity of the barges and their
colorful history are interwoven with the unique experience of staying
in these suites. You might encounter this during your stay, as the barges
may creek from the slightest movements in the wood, caused by changes
in temperature and humidity. At times they may even smell a little,
due to the effects of years of transporting rice to various destinations
along the River of Kings, which has engrained itself into the teak wood
exterior of the barge. Each rice barge is a porthole to a bygone
age, and we hope that these rare disturbances will not prove too
troublesome, but conversely, will heighten your appreciation of the
unrivaled experience of staying in a boat suite during your holiday
on beautiful Koh Samui.
