EAGLE NEST Rooftop Bar

Riverside Rooftop Bar With Wat Arun and Sunset Views

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 near Maha Rat Road, 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.

Sala Rattanakosin Bangkok

I usually come here after a walk through the old city or following a temple visit. It’s a great way to wind down with a drink and a bit of quiet. The space is small,  just a few tables and a bar, but that’s part of the charm. There’s no loud music, no flashy design, just a peaceful view and a nice breeze from the river.

The drink menu is simple. I often just order a beer or a glass of wine and enjoy the view for as long as I can. If you can, time your visit around sunset; it’s worth it. Eagle Nest may not be well known to most visitors, but for me, it’s still one of the most memorable rooftop spots in the city.
