The only highlight is view.Don't bother go to eat and drink here food is average some dish I can say very terrible for what you pay. I will tell you how to get to see the same view and enjoy there with half price .
In the same building from 50s plus floor to the very top floor which pretty much will give you same view as the rooftop bar and sirocco restaurant, have big balcony.
We stay in tower club room which is beautiful and amazing. Very impressed with size of room and co...mfy bed. Normal check out time is at 12 pm here and you definitely will be impress with breakfast option in the morning. If you choose tower club room you have a perk to go to 52 floor where you can get free light meals,high tea and drinks all day till 6 pm.
I paid $200 dollars for The room with view and breakfast . Ofcourse price will be varries depends on seasons but compare to $400 dollars for 2 terrible course meals and 2 cocktail. I take the hotel room anyday.

This is the worst "high bar" in bkk- I will provide a detailed explanation and hope they will not delete it. I suggest learning from this review to revise your policy.
We have read mixed reviews and wanted to try it ourselves last night. So, we went there with full intention to drink and eat. However, from the moment we entered the floor we felt great pressure from the "over acting" and over trying staff. They escorted us to a lower bar that has no view (not the one adverti...sed with the golden dome) and we order 2 drinks there. We requested to move to the bar in the upper level with the nicer view and then we were escorted quite obsessively as the staff insisted to show us the two restaurants. Then they left us on the upper floor with the round bar and the golden dome - a standing bar that was overcrowded so no wonder they want less people there. They suggested to move our open check (bill) from the bar below upstairs. This of course was fine.
However, when we asked to pay for our 4 over priced drinks they gave us a bill that had 6 drinks - two of which we didn't have. The barman was nice but the woman at the cashier was angry and aggressive towards him. We felt bad for him, because the mistake was obviously from combining our two bills - from the lower and upper bar. This would not have happened if they just let us drink where we initially wanted to. We felt manipulated and sorry for this unprofessional "wanna be" behavior of the staff. If the staff was "only following the owner's regulations" these regulations should be revised and reconsidered. This place has a potential in terms of the view but the actual performance was horrific !! I would not return and never recommend this bar. We went to several "high bars" in Bkk and this is by far the worst.
Stop manipulating your gusts and stop being so obsessive. It is better to charge a cover that will include a drink than act so obsessively. We came to enjoy and left with a huge disappointment.

The moment we entered the bar. The hosts and waiters "attacked" us. Making sure we'll sit down and pushed menues so we would order drinks As soon as possible. Now. We read previous comments and yet were astonished. It was our last night in Bangkok and wanted to spend it in a nice place for food & drinks.
Back to our advanture: we ordered 2 coctails. And when had finalky some rest from the hosts. We looked around and realized we were sitting in tge bar with the least view and... notvtge one advertisied. We kindly asked if we could take our drinks and go there. After checking eith her manager the host said we could but the other bar is not fir sitting. Its a standing bar only and asked if we are planning to eat at thier restaurant. We said we would like to see the restaurant first. We tgen were taken on a 15 min tour between 2 different restaurants surrounded by 3 stuff members. It felt strange and not so comefortable as they waited while we loojed at each menu. Waiting for an answer weather we will eat or not. Finally at the end of the tour we were shown to that "othe" bar- the one we actually came for. It looked nice. And we ordered 2 more drinks- Mind you as the drinks are over priced. The bar itself was rather small and very crouded. We had to squeeze among many others around the small standing bar.
Finally we decided to leave and get our dinner in a nother place outside the hotel. We sked for the check. It appeared they have made a mistake and charged us for 2 more drinks. When we pointed it out to the bartender. She responded quite roudly that there is no mistake and that we should not have moved without closing our check at the first bar ( the host actually told us we will pay for all at the end). It took some time to correct and after paying the bartender lost our creditcard and only after we demanded them to check again. They have found it and did not appologise. All in all ,it was a bad experience. I would not reccomand people to visit this hotel bars/restaurants as service does not keep up with the level they target to and the enviroment thet try to create. Further more, tge stuff make you feel like a' walking wallet' doing all they can to make you buy drink - it ruines it all. Pity as we had high hopes.

Very overrated!! I must say the view is great but the service is far to pushy, they not really listening to you as they are like robotic keep telling you drink menus, go here, go there, step here , walk there...
And super super overpriced... Nah not my e piece of cake I must say...
Before let say 10 years back it was far more exciting to be up there...
Have a look outside the box dear F&B team, you need a new strategy to have your local guest to come back..
Really management ...team you should not only read the comments but action on it if you want to be back on the top of roof top bar scene..
Thanks and hope that you will learn from the honest feedback given...

All the hype about the view is true. Fantastic. We wanted to spend our last night out in Bangkok here and then a nice bar or club. As soon as you enter you are bombarded with people trying to get you to consume champagne, cocktails. Everything is overpriced for what you get. You are paying for the view. Food was good but nothing exceptional. Don't regret going but would not recommend to anyone. For what you pay the experience is overshadowed with the treatment you receive and the price you pay. If you want to see the view. Arrive early. Buy a water or Coke, take some pictures and head elsewhere....

The view is great, But...way too expensive even for a roof top bar in NYC ($25 plus per drink). If you just go to the bar, it's standing only...if you'd like to take a picture, you can only do that from a small area. MY son wanted a photo on the stairs, similar to 'The hangover movie, and they didnt let us...i wouldn't come back. Go up, get a club soda...see the view, and go to a better more authentic place:)

View 100%. Prices are totally ridiculous!!! As soon as we arrived pounced on and lead to champagne menu - basically forced upon us! Asked for a bottle of champagne with dinner.... little did I know, they served us one of the most expensive without detailing the price to us! Found out when received bill.....bill shock!!!!! Will never recommend to any traveller.

Over rated and over priced. 1700 baht for a double vodka and tonic is not only the most expensive in BKK but in the world. I travel all the time and for an absolute cheap shitty vodka at that price will never be back. A Diet Coke was over 500 baht. Shocking.

Great view, ridiculous prices. It cost over $75 AUD for 2 cocktails. You feel pressured to keep buying or leave the venue. But it is “their” view so they make the rules. Try the Vertigo moon bar, similar view, cheaper prices, more seating and less pressure to mortgage your home for a drink.

Granted I don’t make a fortune it is expensive for me. I mean what do you expect from an all suite hotel. The views were great and breath taking. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience. Bought two cocktails and spend 1700 baht. So if you don’t have a lot of extra baht best to avoid this and buy a soda which will cost 620 baht for two roughly. Overall staff were very nice and cautious with where we stepped and walked. Great atmosphere. Slightly crowded but again expected. I reccomed this to anyone trying to impress family and friends with it or just want a great Instagram photo. Prices are high but everything is excellent.
