Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

May 22, 2017 by David Herd

Breathtaking view from Red Sky Bar

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars, I really doubt if any city in the world has as many amazing rooftop bar/restaurants than Bangkok. This photo is from the 56th floor of the Red Sky Bar located above CentralWorld.

Happy hour at Red Sky Bar

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Generally as you can imagine Sky Bars are expensive venues, however between 5 & 7 pm buy one get one free is a good deal, for instance  a Jack Daniels or a beer is B360 or $10.50 usd, so getting 2 for 1 is a good value.

I rate Red Sky Bar 5 stars.

Red Sky Bar Central World Bangkok

 Great view of Bangkok.

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

At the Hotel Indigo Bangkok 81 Wireless Road, Pathumwan, on the 25th and 26th Floor.

I give Char a 4 star rating.

The amazing Bangkok skyline.

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Open at 6 pm in time for the sunset.

 Char Bar walking distance to CentralWorld.

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

An easy walk from Char Bar to Red Sky Bar.

I rate Char Bar 4 stars.

Long Table sky bar

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

  Long Table sky bar Bangkok is located on the 25th floor of the Colomn serviced apartments in Soi 16 Asoke. Obviously not as high as many of the Bangkok sky bars but still offers an incredible view of this great city.

I rate Longtable 4 stars.

Spectacular entrance

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Walk in the door and this is the fabulous view of Bangkok. Obviously not as high as many of the Bangkok sky bars but still offers an incredible view of this great city. Photo credit Asia Web Direct.

Use THIS LINK for a great rate of around $80 USD + tax for a 62 M2 serviced apartment.

Cielo Sky Bar & Restaurant

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Another spectacular venue to add to the many other “must do” places to visit in this great city. Located between Sukhumvit 69 & 71 only five minutes walk from Phra Khanong BTS station.

A small beautifully designed intimate restaurant

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

 The Cielo Sky Bar & Restaurant menu caters to a variety of budgets and offers a small selection of well known international dishes. Try the simple Spaghetti Carbonara (250 Baht), the fancy Roasted Duck with Fresh Orange Thyme Sauce (320 Baht), or for those wanting to splash out: the grilled Australian ribeye steak (850 Baht).

Sirocco Restaurant & Bar

 Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Sirocco Sky Bar State Tower Bangkok is one of the best rooftop restaurants bars in the world. In fact I really doubt if any city in the world has more roof top bars than Bangkok. I would certainly like to know if there is any place more spectacular than Sirocco which is located of the 64th floor of the State Tower building in Bangkok.

I rate Sirocco 5 stars.

Top floor Lebua Hotel

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

  Great location close to the Sky Train and the river ferries. One of the nicest ways to spend an hour in Bangkok is cruising along the mighty Chao Phraya river. The river ferry takes you up the lazy river for only B150 for the whole day. It is a great way to see many of Bangkok’s wonderful landmarks. A ticket to Chinatown is only B40, get off at pier number 5 at Ratchawong and walk 10 minutes up the road.

For a great room rate at the Lebua Hotel just book throughh THIS LINK.

 Sirocco to Red Sky

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Via Roof 33 & Char Bar.

Roof 38 Bar Sathorn Rd

 Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Located on the 38th floor of the Mode Sathorn Hotel which is right next door to Surasak sky train. A nice relaxing atmosphere and the drinks are rather expensive as you would expect.

Rawiwan (Lucknam) Thaikam @ Roof 38

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

  The lovely lady is the Roof manager, very friendly with a beautiful smile. She has worked at some other bangkok Roof bars and I think the 38 bars is very lucky to have her on the staff.

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Blu Bangkok

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Blu Bangkok on Sukhumvit Road near Soi 25 claim to be the only rooftop craft beer bar in Bangkok. I’m not into craft beers however an Asahi bottle was reasonably prices at B160, or $4.50 USD.

Book your Bangkok hotel through THIS LINK for a great discount, you can pay later or cancel if you wish.

Two Pattaya reprobates

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

 Joergen Ulitzka & Pothole aka John Martin were very impressed with the view.

Octave Rooftop Lounge Marriott Bangkok

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

 Sukhumvit is one of Bangkok’s busiest roads so catch the sky train to Thong Lo station and walk 5 minutes to 57 Sukhumvit Rd.

I rate Octave 4 stars.

Waiting for sunset at Octave.

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

The drinks are quite expensive at most roof top bars however  here you get two for one cocktails at happy hour before 6pm.

For an excellent room rate here at the Marriott just use this link to book and you will be very happy with the result.

Rooftop Restaurant Bar Sofitel Bangkok

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

On the left is the Westin Hotel which is next door to Terminal 21, & on the right is the Sheraton.

I rate Sofitel 4.5 stars.

Farewell from the Sofitel & the Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Spectacular Bangkok Sky Bars

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

December 30, 2016 by David Herd

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson

30 minutes before sunset

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

 Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok on Sukhumvit Road near Soi 25 claim to be the only rooftop craft beer bar in Bangkok. I’m not into craft beers however an Asahi bottle was reasonably prices at B160, or $4.50 USD.

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Blu Bangkok

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

 To state the obvious when visiting Bangkok Sky Bars it’s always best to arrive before sunset to get the benefit of seeing the city in day light, dusk & night.

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

The crowd was building up, mainly Thai locals.

Abandoned building

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

I’m guessing this abandoned has bees sitting here for at least 10 to 15 years.

 Two Pattaya reprobates

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

Joergen Ulitzka & Pothole aka John Martin were very impressed with the view.

Cielo Sky Bar is another spectacular venue to add to the many  “must do” places to visit in this city. Located between Sukhumvit 69 & 71 only five minutes walk from Phra Khanong BTS station.

City lights are coming on

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Blu Bangkok

A beautiful sight watching the city lights come on.

My favourite time of the day

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

There must be at least 25 sky bars in Bangkok, more than any other city I have been to.

Red Sky Bar Central World offers another breathtaking view of this wonderful city. Perched high on the 56th floor at Centara Grand Hotel above Central World shopping Mall.

 Wonderful sunset from Brewski

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

I must confess I’m a sucker for a sunset, check out THIS LINK for some great Pattaya sunsets.

Terminal 21 & Asoke station

Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Bangkok

Terminal 21 & Asoke sky train station is only a five minute walk to Brewski Sky Bar Radisson Blu Bangkok.  Book through THIS LINK for an excellent room rate.

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

December 15, 2016 by David Herd

46th level Sky Walk Condominium

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

 Cielo Sky Bar  Bangkok is another spectacular venue to add to the many other “must do” places to visit in this great city. Located between Sukhumvit 69 & 71 only
five minutes walk from Phra Khanong BTS station.

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

As usual with Bangkok Sky Bars it’s always best to arrive before sunset to get the benefit of seeing the city in day light, dusk & night.

Who is this guy?

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

He greets you as you arrive at Sky Walk condominium, he could almost be saying “take me to your leader”. 🙂 

Here we are at the bar

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

If you fancy a cocktail Pina Colada, Mojito or Mai Tais are around 200-250 Baht.

OK, back to the wonderful view

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

The late afternoon traffic is starting to build up. 

Open from 6 pm to 1.30 am.

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

Compared to many of the other Bangkok Sky bars drink and food prices are quiet reasonable starting at B120 for a Singha beer.

The city lights are coming on

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

In my opinion enjoying a cold beer or a Margarita & watching the city lights come on in Bangkok is the perfect way to spend an evening.

Pra Khanong district

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

 Pra Khanong district is a middle class residential area rather than a commercial district. 

Only 12 minutes by Sky Train from Nana.

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

I usually stay in Soi 11 Nana and it only takes 12 minutes by Sky Train to get to Pra Khanong station. Then take exit 3 and walk 5 minutes along Sukhumvit to the Sky Walk Condo.

 As you can see the restaurant is stunning

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

A small beautifully designed intimate room with chandeliers to add to the opulence.

Well worth a visit

Cielo Sky Bar Restaurant BangkokOn this occasion I dined elsewhere however I certainly will return to Cielo try out the intimate restaurant.

Casa Teo

Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok

This restaurant looks very interesting indeed, it’s located at the front of the Sky Walk condo. Check them out on Facebook. 

Lovely colourful fountain.

Also located in the forecourt of the Sky Walk condo, thanks for visiting my Cielo Sky Bar Bangkok photo blog.

Obviously not as high as many of the Bangkok sky bars but still offers an incredible view of this great city. Photo credit Asia Web Direct.

Use THIS LINK for a great rate of around $80 USD + tax for a 62 M2 serviced apartment.

 Happy hour is 5 pm to 7 pm, you get 2 for 1 drinks so two cold beers will only cost you B210.

 The Sheraton and Terminal 21.

Only a ten minute walk from Asoke station which is beside Terminal 21 shopping mall.

Best to arrive before sunset to fully appreciate the changing view as the sun sets.

Even though it is only the 25th floor the view is exceptional.

Terminal 21

Long Table sky bar Bangkok

One of the best Bangkok shopping malls, lots of low price restaurants.
