Progress at Ariyasom

We are glad to say that we are making good progress at Ariyasom and are looking forward to achieving our "soft opening" in July.

Our floors are teak wood - all of which is recycled old wood. Teak certainly makes the most beautiful flooring and with 10" planks are a very beautiful feature of the Hotel. We buy our old wood up in Ayuthaya which is the centre of the old teak wood trade. We have made numerous trips up there and have selected piece by piece. 

As the planks are wide we have to screw and glue them on to wooden batons set in the floor. The screws are counter sunk and plugged with teak. Finishing is achieved with numerous coatings of Sherwin Williams matt, water based acrylic lacquer. The end product is both pleasing and practical.

We hope that you will come and see the results for yourselves as soon as we open.
