If you enjoy going to roof top restaurants in Bangkok, try this alternative also. The Sky View 360 is not on the roof, but is an enclosed rotating restaurant that gives you a complete 360 degree view of the Chinatown area. This view is especially nice on a clear night.
Like many roof top restaurants, the food here - although not bad - is not the main point. The view is the main attraction, and what makes this restaurant a good alternative is that you are not exposed to the weather, it's usually not as busy and loud as some roof top places can be, and the prices are reasonable.
I have been here a few times, including to celebrate a friend's birthday with appetizers, desserts, and some good wine. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the bar tender was helpful.

Come here for sunset drink 🍸Top 25th Floor 360° degree sky bar of Grand China Hotel, overlooking nice view of Bangkok Chinatown and riverside, and you can tell many iconic landmarks in Bangkok at horizon.

You can also try another high floor restaurant with view at 17th Floor of hotel. Thanks friendly hotel lobby staff who can speak Chinese and gave us free drink ticket at...
Read moreI went up to the top-floor bar Sky View 360 on Yaowarat Road relatively early in the evening to enjoy the stunning view of sunset over Bangkok 🌆. Luckily, they had a table and I could immediately start looking out of the windows. 😆 I ordered Crème Brulée 🍮 and a fruity cocktail 🍹, both tasted nice but were only ever supposed to be the sideshow to the main event: the amazing view in all directions. 🤩
