Bangkok Sky Bars: Five Rooftop Icons for Sundown & City Lights

Bangkok rooftop bars are stages in the sky—where sunsets meet city lights, and every cocktail comes with a view. From classic glamour to creative hideouts, these five sky bars redefine the art of high-altitude indulgence.

With the sight of skyscrapers, Bangkok skyline is built for rooftop storytelling: dramatic sunsets, neon vistas and cocktails lifted by altitude. Starting from formal panorama bars to playful rooftop backyards, Bangkok’s skyline offers a bar to match every mood — sunrise yoga included, if you time it right. Here are five must-visit sky bars that shape the city’s after-dark personality.

Vertigo & Moon Bar, Banyan Tree

Perched high above Sathorn, Vertigo is the classic rooftop romance: open-air dining and a Moon Bar that offers 360° views, refined plates and an intimate atmosphere for sunset cocktails. It’s a longtime favorite for special evenings and city panoramas.

Sky, Lebua at State Tower

Famous worldwide after appearing in film, Sky by Lebua sits near the top of State Tower and is renowned for vertiginous views (and a dramatic bar set against columned vistas). It’s a theatrical place to watch the city light up and to sip a signature cocktail.

Octave Rooftop Lounge & Bar, Bangkok Marriott Sukhumvit

Octave spans multiple levels and serves panoramic skyline views over Thong Lo with a lively, contemporary vibe and a menu of shareable dishes and craft cocktails — ideal for groups and sunset photos.

Bar.Yard, Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok

A modern “backyard” rooftop on the 40th floor, Bar.Yard blends tropical garden styling with DJ sets and BBQ-styled food — a playful, energetic spot that has become a favorite for creative cocktails and parties above the city.

Tahona, InterContinental Sukhumvit

Tahona brings agave-forward dining and a relaxed, design-forward rooftop on the 33rd floor of the InterContinental Sukhumvit. Its focus on bold flavors, tequila and mezcal rituals offers an alternative rooftop scene that’s more about food and crafted plates as much as the view.
