I have long wanted to go to the observation platform BayokSkye (Baiyoke Sky Hotel) - the highest hotel in Bangkok, but it was not all along the way. On this visit I decided to set aside time for visiting this place. Let for some banal sight, but I love the types and height. Almost always in large cities I go to high points, for example on menara tower in malaysia or on Victoria's peak in Hong Kong.

Bayok Sky Hotel
For guests of Baiyoke Sky Hotel
visit to the observation deck is free for allthe rest for money. At first I had the idea to rent a room there to save money. Looking at the prices on the Internet, I saw that the cost of a double room starts from 2000 baht. Thus, if you visit the lookout for money, rent a hotel somewhere else, and go by taxi to Bayonok, then it will be quite profitable.
True, 2000 baht number is not always andreviews on various booking sites suggest that it does not match its price very much and can be found much better. So I did not live in it this time. However, you need to drop by one day to check how it really is.
By the way, if you rent a room on the spot, then the prices are already higher, somewhere from 4000 baht for the simplest number that cannot be taken. So, if you decide, book better in advance.

Consider that there are 3 zones: Standart (22-45 floors), Sky-Heavenly (46-63 floors) and Space-Space (64-74 floors), and prices are different depending on the zone. To see as much as possible from your own window, you have to settle in the topmost one (Space). And the standard is better not to book at all, everything is not very there.

So let's go up together? If you buy a ticket at the bottom, then immediately after entering the building there will be a special elevator, leading only to the observation platform (the other elevators to the 18th floor and to the rooms).
So, this elevator has a glass wall. And after a while after the climb, you will see how you gain altitude. If you want to stand close to the glass, then immediately push through to the back wall of the elevator, it is transparent.

We are going and looking at Bangkok
Observation desk on floor 77- The first of the sites. It is closed and you can only look at Bangkok through glass covered with foreheads and fingers. The photos are, however, not reflected.
You can come here right before sunset and have time to take day and sunset photos. As it gets dark, we go higher.

Observation deck on the 84th floor
Located on the 84th floor, turningaround its axis, the second site (Revolving Desk). We rise to it after the first one either on the elevator or on the stairs. It is open and there will be heard the city noise and feel the warm wind, the diving in height is more complete.
The first thought, well, finally here you can shootnot through the window ... But this was not the case, because instead of them the grid was partially covered with plexiglas. Night photos from here are just as hard to do, because the ground is moving and there will still be lubrication, even with a tripod. And somewhere around 6 pm the flashing lights come on.

It is very inconvenient to photograph through the net.

There are several restaurants under the roof.(Bangkok Balcony, Bangkok Sky, Stella Palace, Crystal Grill), which are loved by Russian tourists. But in the hotel itself, it seems that some compatriots. Since I was not in restaurants, I can’t say anything about them.
If that, then down in the near shopping center (Fashion Mall)There is the usual Thai foodcourse, where the usual prices, not tourist. I indicated the food court on the map, it is located next to the famous Pantip Plaza (Pantip Plaza), 10 minutes from Bayok.

Opening hours and ticket price
Opening hours: from 10:00 am to 02:00 am.
Ticket price: 400 baht. The price includes a drink in the Roof Top Bar on the 83rd floor.
But there is a life hack. You can pay a little more, and get many times more. It is necessary to buy a ticket not to the observation deck, but to the fruit buffet (buffet)! Ticket must be purchased online through Klook. On the email will come a voucher and then it must be shown at the entrance.
Fruit Buffet Ticket>
Entry fee: 490 baht per adult and 250 baht per child up to 120 cm. Included in the price: unlimited drinks, Thai fruit and visits to viewing platforms. So it turns out more profitable, especially if hungry. The buffet is open from 10.30 to 20.30.
Klook is another option for the hungrier: Dinning Buffet. It’s also a buffet, but no longer fruit: typhoon, pizza, pasta, desserts. Cost 575 baht per adult and 330 baht per child. Sight included with the cost. Full The only thing is, there the choice of time is not very big (there is lunch and dinner).
And there is a restaurant on the 81st floor. For those who want dinner at a restaurant with a view, not just a bite and a lookout. Naturally, it will be possible to go from the restaurant to the viewing rooms.
How to get to Bayok Sky
The Bayok Sky Hotel is located next to the Ratchaprarop subway station, this is the City Line branch that comes from airport Suvarnabumi. That is, go straight, 20-30 minutes, and then from the subway another 5-10 minutes on foot. Orientation is not difficult, the hotel can be seen almost from all sides, it is also the highest.
You can also come from Lumpini Park, on foot or from other metro lines. As an option, to swim by klong on the river bus, it is convenient if you get from the area of Khaosan Road.

Life hacking 1 - how to buy a good insurance
Choosing insurance is now unrealistically difficult, so to help all travelers, I compile a rating. To do this, I constantly monitor forums, study insurance contracts and use insurance by myself.
Life hacking 2 - how to find a hotel 20% cheaper
First, choose a hotel on Booking. They have a good offer base, but the prices are NOT the best! The same hotel can often be found 20% cheaper in other systems through the RoomGuru service.
