Bangkok: Dinner with City Views & Observation Deck Access

Summary

Buffet dining high above Bangkok plus city observation decks

You’ll dine high above Bangkok with a buffet full of Thai and international dishes, then step onto the observation deck for sweeping city views. Enjoy a complimentary drink at the rooftop bar as you watch sunset colors shift over skyscrapers. This experience is about slowing down and seeing Bangkok from a whole new angle—literally.

What’s the experience like?

I didn’t expect to feel so small in the middle of Bangkok, but standing by the window on the 78th floor of Baiyoke Sky Hotel, I just stared. The city looked endless — little lights flickering everywhere, tuk-tuks like ants. We’d picked the international buffet for dinner (I was craving sushi and pad thai at the same time), and honestly, it was hard to focus on my plate with that view. Our server, Nok, noticed me gawking and laughed, saying locals still get wowed by it too.

The food was way more varied than I thought — trays of spicy Thai curries next to pasta and fresh seafood. I tried to pronounce “som tam” properly when ordering salad; Nok grinned and corrected me gently (I still probably got it wrong). There was this soft hum from other tables, families celebrating birthdays, couples clinking glasses. The air smelled faintly of grilled prawns and something sweet — maybe mango sticky rice? At some point I just stopped trying to keep track of what I was eating. It felt like one of those nights where you’re not in a rush for anything.

After dinner we took the elevator up to the observation deck on the 77th floor. The city noise faded away up there — just wind and a few camera clicks. If you want even more height, there’s an open-air revolving viewpoint on the 84th floor (my hair went wild in the breeze). My friend insisted we grab our included drink at the rooftop bar on 83rd before heading down — watching Bangkok’s lights with something cold in hand is… well, it sticks with you. I still think about that view sometimes when I’m stuck in traffic back home.
