Bangkok from above: four rooftops
Where to go for the view, and how high each one actually is.
Can children visit?
Check the rules for your exact product and visiting time. An observation deck and a bar can have different age and admission policies.
Decide whether you want an observation ticket, a restaurant table or a bar visit before comparing Bangkok rooftops. Those are different purchases, with different booking and access rules.
Choose one venue and leave time for the return journey. A sunset view is optional; a reservation does not guarantee a particular table or weather.
King Power Mahanakhon SkyWalk
The highest. Ticketed, with a glass floor.
The city's highest observation deck: a glass floor at 310 metres and an open rooftop at 314 metres, with a bar at the top. Next to BTS Chong Nonsi.
Place details ↗Sky Bar at Lebua
The famous one, 63 floors up.
An open-air bar on the 63rd floor of State Tower, familiar from the 2011 film The Hangover Part II. A smart dress code applies.
Place details ↗Vertigo and Moon Bar
Open to the sky on the 61st floor.
A rooftop grill and bar on the 61st floor of the Banyan Tree hotel, with no walls and a view over Lumphini Park.
Place details ↗Octave Rooftop Lounge
More relaxed, with a full circle of view.
Three levels on floors 45 to 49 of the Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit, with a 360-degree view from the top. A short walk from BTS Thong Lo.
Place details ↗Choose the kind of visit
Mahanakhon has a ticketed observation product, while the linked hotels offer rooftop dining or drinks. Read the exact product description before paying and check what areas the booking includes.
Read the total price and house rules
Check the current menu, taxes, service charges and any minimum spend before ordering. Do not apply one hotel’s dress code or child policy to another. Contact the venue about your actual group and reservation.
Give the weather a place in the plan
Check the forecast and the venue’s outdoor-area policy. Ask what happens to your reservation if the deck closes, and keep an indoor meal or a shorter evening available. No storm duration or guaranteed sunset seat is assumed.
Good to know
- Check the venue’s dress code before leaving.
- Ask about camera and tripod rules.
- Choose a comfortable area if a glass floor does not appeal to you.
Common questions
Do I need a reservation?
Check the venue’s current arrangement. Ask separately about table location, minimum spend and walk-in availability.
What happens if it rains?
