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

The Sky Bar is the open-air bar on the 64th floor of The Dome in the lebua building, 247 meters above Silom Road in the State Tower. The panorama at dusk is the absolute highlight. The circular bar glows right on the edge of the precipice and is the place where the Hangovertini was created for the cast of "The Hangover Part II." Let's be honest: the view is what you experience here. According to the phuket101 guide from October 2026, the Hangovertini costs 1,500 baht, and cocktails cost between 1,300 and 1,500 baht, plus service and tax. No wonder many guests who don't do the math beforehand leave annoyed.

The procedures are also important. The Sky Bar is only accessible without a reservation, and there's standing room around the bar. Several reviewers, including phuket101, report that staff initially direct newcomers to the Pink Bar. There, phuket101 found the cheapest drink for around 2,700 baht. The Pink Bar is a bit stricter: men must wear long trousers and collared shirts, and entry is only permitted for those under 20. You can politely ask if you can go directly to the Sky Bar. Bartenders and servers consistently receive good reviews. Arrive around sunset and then, once the city lights come on, stroll to the other side of the rooftop terrace. For a seat and dinner with the same view, Sirocco, the lebua's Mediterranean restaurant, located directly under the dome, is a good option.

According to Google Maps and phuket101, the Sky Bar is open daily from 5:00 PM to 12:30 AM. Last call is at 12:15 AM. The dress code at lebua is "smart casual." Men may wear collared shirts, T-shirts, tailored shorts, loafers, or dress sandals; women may wear tailored shorts and dress sandals. Sportswear, swimwear, sleeveless shirts for men, flip-flops, and sandals are not permitted. Children aged 7 and older are welcome when accompanied by an adult. Backpacks, shopping bags, and suitcases can be left at the hotel, as lebua does not offer luggage storage. Tripods, extension poles, and external flash units are not allowed. The Saphan Taksin BTS station, next to Sathorn Pier, is approximately 430 meters away. On weekends, there may be a wait for the elevator around sunset.
