The Tallest Rooftop Bars in Bangkok
From an 84th-floor revolving deck to a 61st-floor helipad — the highest venues in the city.
Updated
Pratunam · Floors 78–84
The tallest floor number on this entire list: Thailand's tallest hotel carries its bar up to the 84th floor, where the country's first open-air revolving observation deck completes a full 360° sweep of the city roughly every half hour. Around ฿450 buys deck access plus a beer or cocktail — the best price-per-floor in Bangkok by a wide margin.
Time one full revolution over your included drink — half an hour, the entire city.
Silom · Floor 78
Tied for the highest pour in the city: Bangkok's highest open-air bar sits on Mahanakhon's 78th floor, roughly 310 metres up — among the highest anywhere on earth. Getting there means crossing one of the world's largest glass floors first, so the altitude announces itself before the first drink even arrives.
Do the glass-floor SkyWalk on the way up — it's the appetizer for the altitude that follows.
Silom · Floor 76
Thailand's highest restaurant, full stop: the 76th floor of The Standard at Mahanakhon, where Chef Paco Ruano's glamorous Mexican menu comes with a drop that critics are already calling Michelin-worthy. Two floors short of the very top of this list, but the only one of the seven built specifically as a fine-dining room rather than a bar.
Book the outdoor terrace for sunset — the indoor glass throws reflections at golden hour.
Silom / Riverside · Floor 64
The one everyone's actually heard of: the golden-domed terrace from The Hangover Part II, 64 floors up on State Tower. It shares that exact altitude with four sister bars in the same building — Sirocco, Distil, Alfresco 64 and Flûte — but this is the one that made 64 floors a household number worldwide.
No cover charge, no minimum — arrive before sunset, since the deck is standing-room-only after.
Sathon · Floor 61
A converted helipad 61 floors above Sathorn, shared between Vertigo's open-air grill and Moon Bar next door — both pour from the exact same altitude, just with different menus. It's the highest point on this list you can book a proper sit-down dinner at, not just a drink.
Arrive right at 5 PM for a prime edge seat before the dinner rush claims them.
Siam · Floor 59
The world's highest champagne bar: an all-white 59th-floor terrace on top of CentralWorld, reached by its own private lift. Three floors lower than Vertigo, but nothing else on this list pours Veuve Clicquot at this altitude.
Arrive by 5 PM and order a glass of Clicquot — the all-white deck turns rose-gold as the sun drops.
Ploenchit · Floors 58–61
The most unusual entry on this list by far: a four-floor immersive Thai cultural park stacked between floors 58 and 61 of One City Centre, roughly 275 metres up. Mirrored reflection decks, traditional dance performances and a rooftop night market share the altitude with progressive Thai cooking — less a bar with a view, more an entire world at height.
Arrive at 5 PM to catch a dance performance — ask when booking for the schedule.
