Best Rooftop Bars in Khao San, Bangkok

Rooftop Bars in Khao San, Bangkok are low-rise bars on guesthouse, hostel and shophouse roofs in this old-town backpacker quarter, so the view takes in the temples and rooftops, not glass towers. It suits a relaxed evening after a day at the Grand Palace.

Getting there: No BTS or MRT station serves Khao San. MRT Sam Yot is about a 20-minute walk. The Chao Phraya boat to Phra Arthit pier (N13) is the alternative, or use a taxi or Grab.

At the time of writing (October 2026), the listings with the most Google reviews include Amorosa, Samranrat Bar, The Ordinary Bar and ChingCha Bangkok Hostel, a hostel with a rooftop restaurant and bar.

Before you choose: Roofs here are lower than in Silom, so the view is wide but not high. Ask whether the bar is open air, and check the closing time, as the area is busy late.
