Golden hour hits different from a rooftop, and Bangkok has 12 rooftop bars to choose from. Here are the real ones, with ratings. Check hours before you head out, since small-town listings change faster than big-city ones.
Rooftop bars in Bangkok
Rooftops around Bangkok with a view and a drinks list, best-reviewed first. Sunset slots go first. Weather can close a rooftop with no notice, so keep a ground-floor backup in mind.
Rooftops in Bangkok are weather-dependent — have a ground-level backup in mind if the sky turns.
Arrive 30 to 45 minutes before sunset for the best tables; after dark the crowd (and the wait) builds.
Many rooftops enforce a dress code after a certain hour. When in doubt, smart casual beats sportswear.
