Spire Rooftop Bar @Dusit Thani

Address: 98 Rama IV Rd, Silom, Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500
Transit: MRT Si Lom
Spire embodies subtle elegance, a Modern Tropical design with Art Deco influences, interpreted through the lens of contemporary hospitality.
Patinated wood, mineral textures, and ribbed chairs inspired by Pierre Jeanneret create a warm and structured space under the hotel’s golden spire.
With a view over Lumphini Park, the cocktails, crafted by Tropic City, reinterpret local flavours.
A sophisticated address to contemplate Bangkok in a hushed atmosphere.
% Arabica Bangkok Empire Tower

Address: 55th Floor, Empire Tower, 1 S Sathon Rd, Yan Nawa, Sathon, Bangkok 10120
Transit: BTS Saint-Louis
On the 55th floor of the Empire Tower, the café offers a clear view over Bangkok and the MahaNakhon Tower, the famous pixelated skyscraper.
On the menu: espresso, latte, dripped coffee, and soft serve.
Ideal for enjoying a cup of coffee while admiring the view.
The café closes at 9 PM, so arrive a little before 6 PM for the golden hour.
Invitation Only

Address: 55th Floor, Empire Tower, 1 S Sathon Rd, Yan Nawa, Sathon, Bangkok 10120
Transit: BTS Saint-Louis
Nestled in the same tower, this cocktail bar features an intimate and subdued design.
A nod to the 1920s with full Art Deco flair: velvet, drapes, sculpted shapes, and its signature red glow.
The menu features European cuisine, signature cocktails, and for those who prefer the classics, perfectly executed staples.
Music lovers can check their lineup on Instagram.
Beautiful décor, stunning views, and delicious cocktails — an experience not to be missed.
Nobu

Address: 57–60th Floors, The Empire, 1 S Sathon Rd, Yan Nawa, Sathon, Bangkok 10120
Transit: BTS Saint-Louis
For those with discerning tastes (and larger budgets), Nobu is a must-visit.
It offers a luxurious experience from start to finish.
We recommend booking directly on their website to guarantee a table.
Note that a minimum spend policy applies at the rooftop bar on the 60th floor, but the 57th-floor bar and 58th-floor lounge do not.
Sky Beach

Address: The Standard, Mahanakhon, 78th Floor, 114 Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra Rd, Si Lom, Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500
Transit: BTS Saint-Louis
Perched atop the Mahanakhon Tower, Sky Beach offers 360-degree views of Bangkok, arguably the most spectacular in the city.
The venue combines an open-air bar, a glass floor, and a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere.
On the menu, you'll find creative cocktails and refreshing “juicetails,” perfect for sipping while admiring the skyline.
It's best to visit when the sky begins to turn pink, the moment when Bangkok reveals all its beauty.
