Bangkok's air quality is not ideal, but that shouldn’t stop you from taking your drinking experience to elevated heights. Here are some of our favorite indoor bars that crown Bangkok loftiest skyscrapers.
Set on the top floors of the swish Rosewood Bangkok is another addition to Bangkok’s long list of speakeasies. Lennon’s indulges the audiophile’s whims by celebrating those good old days when listening to music was considered an art form.
Opulent art deco interiors, amazing views (on clear days), subtle service and cocktails by a team of barmen headed by Italian Michele Montauti—you’ve got enough reasons to check out this elegant drinking den in the sky.
The city’s newest Mexican restaurant Ojo Bangkok (pronounced “o-ho”), set on top of high-rise landmark King Power Mahanakhon, will give you reason to go “oh-ho!”
Mid-level of this elegant food and drink triplex is home to a stunning bar that’s surrounded by gleaming views of downtown Bangkok. Beyond all the fancy, though, the venue is all about surprisingly affordable booze and cozy vibes.
Spectrum is a three-level watering hole that crowns the newly-opened Hyatt Regency Sukhumvit Hotel on Soi Sukhumvit 13. Comprising an air-conditioned lounge and a more exciting outdoor, it’s ideal for taking in views of Lower Sukhumvit.
The indoor sky bar of Millennium Hilton hotel is not new, yet it remains one of the best for views. Control tower-like windows offer 180-degree, million-dollar panoramas of the Chao Phraya River and other riverside establishments.
Though not as famous as its bigger sister, Vertigo and Moon Bar on the rooftop of Banyan Tree Hotel, Vertigo Too is still pretty impressive when it comes to sky-high tippling. Lit-up city scenes can be seen from all directions regardless of where you sit, courtesy of dim lighting and the restaurant’s narrow layout.
