Having stayed at the Baiyoke Sky a couple of times it was really interesting to find out the story behind it. I also want to thank you for the brilliant walking tour you took me on last week. I learned more about Bangkok in a few hours than I have in the many years of coming to the city. Since the tour I’ve revisited your videos covering the areas we walked around and feel I have a much better understanding of these places now. Thoroughly engaging and highly recommended, thank you Pat

Great job Pat ! But, I must say, all of your vids are top notch. You are brill in how you present the positives/negatives. Evenly balanced without hitting viewers over the head with it. Camera work very well done as usual. Really liked the dusk shots. A mix of lighting that kind of reflects the mixed feelings. Appreciating the beauty of the city yet cringing at the sight of the deplorable air conditions.

I agree its the best view. I have stayed there many times, its great to be able to go up there at any time and breakfast on the 76th floor. When it opened the hotel was under-used for years and a large part of it was mothballed, but the huge Chinese influx a few years ago filled it up. It was a bit too crowded at its peak and often long waits for lifts. I like the area as it is completely non-trendy as is the tower itself.

It's definitely a good place to go. I've been there with my thai family in 2018 for dinner and night views on the revolving Skywalk. Would recommend it to anyone ! Also, I've had dinner at the " Lebua state tower," consisting of a classical music quartet playing ,Beethoven ,Chopin Brahms violin, and piano pieces. Then we went up to the sky patio door bar to soak in some live jazz! Expensive but still cheaper than Manhattan bro...believe me I've done " windows on the world " before they knocked down the world trade. It was in the north tower 106th floor ! Miss the old towers bro 😪 anyway Byoke and Labua remind me of Manhattan. Maybe Ta and I will treat you guys to Labua "classical dinner and live jazz " evening one day 🤔 ... keep up the good work, great historical videos, and good looking out for us yanks across the pond...

Oh, and by the way, our profile picture you see was that evening at Labua state tower 52 ND floor "Mozu restaurant," and there are several restaurants from 52 to 64 floor with different themes !

At 5.00 pm, had the buffet which was value for money. The staff were friendly and there was a Guest Relationship officer who asked me about the overall dining experience. After the food, walked up till the 84th floor for the view. Fantastic. Went down to the ice cold smoking room on the 83th floor and it was big and spacious. Will be back early March and done my reservation for the buffet package.

Rooms are beginning to show their age, but for less that $100 US for a junior suite I’m not complaining. Taking breakfast buffet on the 83? floor terrace was a great way to start the day, especially considering it was included in the price. The hazy pollution definitely took away from the views but was still no doubt worth a visit. And the prices are very reasonable at the cocktail bar, especially compared to the $35 cocktails at Distil/Skybar. I should also mention that the hotel staff was absolutely lovely, professional and very helpful.

You can imagine how much I was trembling when it was time to walk the glass tray. Not compulsory but didn't want my son to think I was a softie. It is a bizarre feeling knowing it's safe but your brain turns your legs to jelly anyway. I found that walking backwards induced more jelly leggedness. A thrilling experience. Good luck Pat

Loved Char, Vanilla Sky, Belga and Hi-So and Mahanakhon for the views and comfort. Baiyoke 2 has its charms and you do get to see quite far. Worth doing, but tourists should include several of the others for comparison. Nice video, Pat.

Cool topic. This tower has 1990's BKK character. I almost got my arm sliced off at this tower. Back in 2008, I put my arm through the mesh fence to get a direct downward view with my Cybershot. Turns out this was not a good idea because the platform turns AND they have these sharp stainless steel signs that are stationary on the outside. So my arm got in between the platform and the sign. In turns slow enough that my arm just kinda bounced out of the way. But it probably could have been worse if I was unlucky. I really like that tower. Im surprised that it hasn't got a major facelift. Anything that is surviving from this era deserves a renovation.
