Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

The pool is the absolute highlight here. Completely enclosed in glass, it's located on the roof of the Amanor Hotel on Nimmanahaeminda Road and transforms an otherwise ordinary rooftop terrace in Chiang Mai into a place where you can easily spend an entire afternoon and evening. If the view is important to you – and it should be – the best time to come is at sunset.

The drinks are also impressive. Cocktails are freshly mixed, not from bottles, and regulars mention the bartenders' names in their reviews – a clear indication of the bar's quality. The Burnt Lemon Margarita, in particular, receives frequent praise. Seating consists of low sofas outdoors, and it's reported that the atmosphere remains pleasant and doesn't get stuffy even as the evening progresses. There's also a kitchen, so you can eat here instead of moving on after just a couple of drinks. If you're looking for a loud night out, this isn't the place. The bar is rather quiet and convivial, making it especially suitable for small groups who want to spend a few relaxing hours.
