Bangkok’s Most Famous Rooftop Bars
Content
show
The list of Bangkok’s Best Rooftop Bars keeps getting longer, and not many cities in the world can pretend to have more rooftops and sky bars than Bangkok. At this time, we count more than 30 ‘real’ rooftop bars, restaurants, and a good dozen alternate ones. By ‘real rooftop bar’, we mean built at the top of a building with an open sky above, not just a terrace with a view.
Why are Bangkok Rooftop Bars so Popular?
- The fascination people have for high places and their fantastic views, and the photos they can post on Facebook,
- An excellent weather condition most of the year that allows running all year round (probably why there are not as many rooftops in Kuala Lumpur; it seems to rain a lot at sunset time)
- Rooftop bars can be great money-makers for a space the hotel owns anyway! Few seats, a bar and a sound system and here you go, 350 baht for a Singha, please (plus 7% tax and 10% service charge), and we are all happy to pay.
Wherever you are in Bangkok, there is always a rooftop near you! We know this list is incomplete, but we are growing it fast! See also our list of Phuket’s Best Rooftop Bars.

Octave Rooftop Bar
Sukhumvit
Floor: 49th
Price: Moderate to High
Price: Moderate to High
The Octave Rooftop Lounge and Bar is one of the most impressive in Bangkok in terms of size. On three floors at the top of the Bangkok Marriott Hotel on Sukhumvit 57, Octave offers a full 360 view of the capital with a great perspective on the entire BTS track and the usual traffic jams so famous on Sukhumvit Road. Fortunately, it is also very easy to reach by BTS. The highest floor of the Octave rooftop has a cool
Red Sky Rooftop Bangkok
Siam
Floor: 55th
Price: Moderate to Expensive
Price: Moderate to Expensive
Red Sky Rooftop on the 55th floor of the Centara Grand in Bangkok is an upmarket restaurant and bar with relatively better prices when compared to Sky Bar Rooftop or Vertigo at Banyan Tree. The name is wisely chosen if you get one of those amazing sunsets. Of course, some days it rains, or some days the sky is not very red, but we were lucky as usual and witnessed an amazing sunset. The popular part of the restaurant is
Mahanakhon SkyWalk
Silom
Floor: 78th
Price: Expensive
Price: Expensive
Mahanakhon SkyWalk in Silom is, without a doubt, the most thrilling experience you can get in Bangkok these days. It’s quite expensive, but the views from this 360˙open space Rooftop at the top of the tallest tower in Thailand justify the price. Built on the 78th floor of the iconic Mahanakhon pixelated building, this long-awaited rooftop bar offers an impressive view of the entire Bangkok metropolis. The SkyWalk consists of three distinct floors: two indoors and one outdoors. You will
Sky Bar
Silom
Floor: 64th
Price: Very Expensive
Price: Very Expensive
Sky Bar Bangkok at Lebua Hotel is undoubtedly the most visited rooftop bar in the city. It was already famous since its opening for its unique location near the Chao Phraya River, its staggering height of 64 floors, and its iconic golden dome. After being featured in the Hangover II movie, it suddenly became a Bangkok must-do on every traveller's list. The Sky Bar stands majestically 64 floors above the rest of Bangkok, and wherever you stand on this rooftop,

The new Nobu Rooftop Restaurant in Bangkok is a remarkable addition to the city’s dining scene and one of the most luxurious rooftop experiences Bangkok has to offer. Located on the 57th, 58th, and 60th floors of The Empire Tower in Sathorn District, it is the highest Nobu in the world, offering spectacular 360-degree views of the city.

Paradise Lost Rooftop Bangkok
Siam
Floor: 25th
Price: Cheap to Moderate
Price: Cheap to Moderate
Paradise Lost is one of Bangkok’s least known rooftop bars, almost a secret place, a laid-back, colourful rooftop bar with good views and a refreshing atmosphere. Located on the 25th floor of the Siam@Siam Design Hotel, it offers panoramic views overlooking the National Stadium, making it a perfect spot to relax. Conveniently located, it's just a short walk from MBK and Siam Discovery malls, with the Jim Thompson House museum right around the corner. Despite its prime location, this rooftop
Seen Rooftop Bar at Avani Hotel Bangkok
Riverside, Thonburi
Floor: 27th
Price: Moderate
Atmosphere: great views on Asiatique
Price: Moderate
Atmosphere: great views on Asiatique
Seen Rooftop Bar at Avani Hotel has an interesting location on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River, just opposite the famous Asiatique night market. In case you are not familiar with the Thonburi side of Bangkok, most people only visit when they go to Wat Arun. It might be why this rooftop can afford to be so vast, and Seen took full advantage of so much space. The place is well-designed, with a bar next to a very
Three Sixty Rooftop Bar
Riverside, Thonburi
Floor: 32nd
Price: a bit high
Atmosphere: great setting and views
Price: a bit high
Atmosphere: great setting and views
The Three Sixty Rooftop Bar at Millennium Hilton Bangkok is superb but underappreciated. This might be because, from afar, the bar seems to be inside an indoor panoramic cupola. Located just next to IconSiam, this bar has fantastic views as it seems to hang high above the busy Chao Phraya River, but it would not qualify as a rooftop if there were no outdoor area. You need to walk behind that cupola to find the real outdoor terrace and its
Char Rooftop Bar
Ploenchit
Floor: 26th
Prices: Reasonable
Atmosphere: great setting and great views
Prices: Reasonable
Atmosphere: great setting and great views
Char Rooftop Bar is a small spot perched on the 26th floor of the Indigo Hotel in Bangkok, above the tree-lined Wireless Road in Ploenchit and the massive garden of the American ambassador's residence. The surroundings are unique, with many trees and green areas at the front and the modern and ever-growing city skyline beyond it. Char rooftop is small, but the Indigo Hotel did an excellent job managing the space, creating several alcoves with infinity views that can accommodate
Hi-So Rooftop Bar at So / Bangkok
Sathorn
Floor: 26th
Price: a bit high
Atmosphere: under renovation
Price: a bit high
Atmosphere: under renovation
When the Hi-So rooftop bar at So/ Bangkok opened in Bangkok, we thought this was just another luxury hotel, so how great could it be? Sathorn Road is nice and even posh, but it mostly looks like a large avenue lined with tall and shiny skyscrapers and a growing collection of luxury hotels (think Banyan Tree, Sukhothai Hotel, W Hotel and the likes) But well, it wasn't far from home, and who could resist a rooftop with a glass of
Brewski Rooftop Bar at Radisson Blu Bangkok
Sukhumvit
Floor: 22nd
Price: Reasonable
Atmosphere: casual but no views
Price: Reasonable
Atmosphere: casual but no views
Brewski Rooftop Bar on the 22nd floor of the Radisson Blu on Sukhumvit is the highest Craft Beer bar in Bangkok. It may not be the highest in Bangkok nor have the striking views other Bangkok rooftops have, but the place has a cool atmosphere and appears to be hugely popular. Brewski Rooftop Bar is the next rooftop in town in the ever-growing collection; it seems to attract a pretty good crowd. The bar can accommodate a good 90 guests,
Speakeasy Rooftop Bar at Hotel Muse
Ploenchit
Floor: 25th
Price: a bit high
Price: a bit high
Speakeasy Rooftop Bar at Hotel Muse Bangkok on Langsuan Street is not your usual rooftop bar: like the entire hotel, Speakeasy displays a convoluted Art-Deco design to create a fancy atmosphere. And it's a partial success. The lobby of the bar is nicely crafted but rather dark, like the rest of the hotel. The staff is politely welcoming but rather strict on the sitting as it can get busy. The bar consists of two levels; the lowest floor is unfortunately
Mojjo Rooftop Bar Bangkok
Sukhumvit
Floor: 34th
Price: Reasonable
Price: Reasonable
Mojjo rooftop bar came out of nowhere in the Sukhumvit area, exactly behind the Emporium mall, the same week Radisson Blu and Novotel Sukhumvit launched their own rooftops nearby. The rooftop race is just getting more fun every week! At first, Mojjo is a bit of a "same-same but different" rooftop. Very minimalist in design but with a real 360 view, it is quite a nice place to hang out after work. There is no riverside nearby to admire, but
Sky on 20
Sukhumvit
Floor: 26th
Price: Reasonable
Price: Reasonable
Sky on 20 Rooftop Bar is on the 26th floor of the Novotel on Sukhumvit 20 in Bangkok, so you can guess that the name wasn’t chosen from the floor but from the street number. The way to access this beautiful place differs greatly from most rooftops we see. You first take the lift to the 26th floor and once there, there is no grand door or welcome committee: just a slightly golden fire exit door with a tiny sign,
Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok on Sukhumvit
sukhumvit
Floor: 46th
Price: Reasonable
Price: Reasonable
Cielo Sky Bar is another fantastic high spot at the intersection of Rama IV and Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok. The view from the 46th floor of the Luk Condominium is surprising considering that the building is located more on the outskirt of town than the other famous rooftop, but this is compensated by the height and the beautiful 180˙ panorama and the prices, which are more affordable than Sky Bar, Hi-So at So Sofitel and Banyan Tree Vertigo. Because of
Sky Bar at Grand China Bangkok
Chinatown
Floor: 23rd
Price: Reasonable
Price: Reasonable
The Sky Bar is located on the 23rd floor of the Grand China Hotel and offers a spectacular 360-degree view over the Chinatown skyline. Open from 3 pm until midnight every day, it’s especially impressive when the sun is setting over the Chao Phraya River. Unusually for a rooftop bar, there are actually floors above the Sky Bar. Head up to the 25th floor to dine at Sky View 360°, which shares stunning views but adds windows and air-conditioning for
Spectrum Lounge & Bar at Hyatt Regency Bangkok
Sukhumvit
Floor: 30th
Price: Reasonable to high
Price: Reasonable to high
Spectrum Lounge is a rooftop bar built on 3 levels at the top of the Hyatt Regency Bangkok on Sukhumvit. The rooftop is vast and beautifully designed, but doesn't have a panoramic view of Bangkok. On each side of the rooftop are immense glass walls that somehow block the view, so the only remaining open space is the narrow front of the building. The best is to walk down the stairs and sit on the small terrace below. It's small,

Atmosphere: spacious with beautiful design
Yao Rooftop Bar is a striking addition to Bangkok's growing collection of rooftops. It may not be much talked about (so far), but with its soft Chinese theme and stunning views, it is a new gem on our list. Located on the 52nd and 53rd floors of the Bangkok Marriott Hotel The Surawongse in Silom, Yao offers rewarding views of the city skyline with a good 360˙ panoramic view. Note that Yao is a true rooftop with a full open

Atmosphere: Spacious with nice views
RedSquare rooftop bar is a small but attractive new terrace with a view on the 25th floor of the Novotel Bangkok Sukhumvit 4. The location is convenient, with impressive views of the Bangkok skyline, but most of all, it is affordable and easy to access.

Atmosphere: great
Price: a bit high
Atmosphere: great
Above Eleven on Sukhumvit 11 is more than just a rooftop: it's a great place for a party with great music, cocktails, friendly staff, and excellent food. This rooftop has become so popular that it is impossible to get a table without a reservation, even a table for two, so plan. Located on the 33rd and 34th floors of the Fraser suite, Above Eleven is high but doesn't offer great views of the riverside as on Sky Bar or the
Vertigo Rooftop and Moon Bar

Atmosphere: Superb

Atmosphere: Superb
Vertigo Rooftop and Moon Bar are among the best rooftops in Bangkok, on the 61st floor of the famous Banyan Tree Hotel on Sathorn Road, a tall, skinny-looking building. Vertigo is a restaurant where you can have dinner with some pretty amazing views, but most people like to hang out in the comfortable chairs and sofas of the bar for a sunset drink and some unforgettable photos. While not as nice as at the Hilton 360, the views are breathtaking.

Atmosphere: Luxurious and Exclusive
CRU Champagne Bar is one of Bangkok's most exclusive rooftop bars right now (pronounce it 'cru', not C.R.U), meaning a vineyard of recognised quality in France. The location is well-known since it is just 3 floors above Red Sky Bar on the 55th Floor of CentralWorld Shopping Mall. CRU Rooftop wants to be the place for the Hi-So and Bangkok Elite people, serving mostly Champagne and selected grand crus. The 360˙ view from up there is simply superb. Note that

TRIBE Sky Beach Club

Price: Moderate
TRIBE Sky Beach Club is one of the newest rooftop bars in Bangkok and probably the most surprising one I’ve seen in a long time. It’s not just a rooftop; it’s a rooftop beach. Located on the top floor of the EmSphere Mall in Sukhumvit, Tribe Sky Beach Club feels like it came out of nowhere and suddenly became one of the city’s coolest sunset spots. I went out of curiosity but ended up staying for a couple of hours.
Up and Above Bar
Ploenchit
Floor: 24th
Up and Above Bar at The Okura Prestige Bangkok is one of those rooftops that feels calm and elegant from the moment you step in. Located on the 24th floor, it doesn’t reach the dizzying heights of some of Bangkok’s tallest sky bars, but the view over the city is still wide and impressive, especially in the late afternoon light. I’ve been there a couple of times when I was looking for a quieter spot with a view of the

Sanctuary Bangkok is a new rooftop bar that opened in March 2025, perched on the 34th floor of the InterContinental Bangkok Sukhumvit. It’s a rather intimate rooftop space compared to many others in the city, and while it doesn’t offer the sweeping panoramic views that some visitors might expect from a rooftop bar, it has its own unique charm. There’s no direct view of the sunset, as a neighbouring tower mostly blocks it, but we were lucky to catch a

Eagle Nest is one of those rooftops I keep going back to. It’s not high up like many others in Bangkok, but the view is hard to beat. Located right on top of Sala Rattanakosin Hotel, the bar looks directly across the river to Wat Arun, and just behind you is Wat Pho. The view becomes quite special when the sun starts to set and the lights come on. I usually come here after a walk through the old city

Siwilai City Club is not your typical rooftop bar. It’s only on the 5th floor of Central Embassy, so you won’t get sweeping skyline views, but I’ve always liked it for the easy-going vibe. It’s open-air, relaxed, and never too crowded; a great place to take a break after walking through the mall. I’ve been a few times after browsing around Central Embassy, and it feels relaxed and easy-going. The design is stylish but casual, with wooden decks, large tables,

Before rooftop bars became the norm and every new condo tried to outdo the last, Baiyoke Sky Tower was the place to see Bangkok from above. At 304 metres to the roof (and 328 metres if you count the antenna), this 85-storey tower was the tallest building in Thailand when it opened in 1997. It held that title until MahaNakhon came along in 2016, rising just a few metres higher at 314 metres. While it’s no longer the city’s tallest,
