On the roof · THE MOOON
The swimming pool
Sun loungers ring a compact pool above the Sukhumvit skyline. THE MOOON is closer than you might think: take the elevator as high as it will go, walk a few short steps and take one giant leap.
When the sun is shining, guests recline on lounge chairs around the swimming pool. When dusk descends, a lunar metamorphosis takes shape: after 5:00 PM the rooftop turns to Bangkok’s neon-lit streets, casual delights and fireside ambiance.
From 8.00 AM ’til 10.00 PM, a selection of SWD’s favourite menu items and drinks is served on THE MOOON, and there is Thai craft beer from Group B Beer to go with the view.
Hours
Open 8 AM to 8 PM.
Who
