High up in the sky

Bangkok has some really impressive rooftop bars offering beautiful views together with very expensive, but very good, drinks (or food if you feel like spoiling yourself).

Since we went to the Moon Bar at Vertigo (Banyan Tree Hotel) for my birthday, we decided to try Sky Bar at Sirocco (Lebua at State Tower) this time.
Sky Bar was featured in the movie Hangover 2 (which I still haven't seen...) and they actually have something called Hangovetini on the menu. Not the best name for a cocktail, but I guess it works for them.

In comparison to the Moon Bar, the Sky Bar is a bit more expensive. Drinks here are 450 Baht excl. 10% service charge whereas you pay 350 Baht excl. service charge at the Moon Bar. I found the Moon Bar cosier since they actually have sofas and tables where the Sky Bar only offers its guests standing room. It felt like the Moon Bar was a bit bigger as well, but I can't say for sure. The views from both bars are truly spectacular, so there is not a huge difference there, except that you have got better views of the Chao Phraya river from the Sky Bar.

Here are some pictures from our visit to the Sky Bar:

    Hi, if you want to have dinner at Scirocco, reservation is a prerequisite. If you just want to visit the Sky-Bar, no reservation is needed. Just make sure that you wear long trousers and closed shoes for both locations, otherwise you will be given the brush-off when you try to enter the escalators. And bring some money, as the view tends to be expensive up there...
