The Baiyoke Sky Tower building is 309m (1,013 ft) tall, or 328m (1,076 ft) tall if its mast is included. It has 85 floors, with a public observatory on the 77th floor and a 360-degree revolving roof deck on the 84th floor. The view in the Top is Breathtaking since you can see the various expressways of bangkok and the chao phraya river and grand palace complex but I was not that Impressed since I've been to many Tower's Including the Highest being the CN Tower in Toronto Canada (see my toronto page) and Stratosphere Tower in Vegas and Macau Tower.

It is certainly worth while going to the Baiyoke Sky Hotel and up to the viewing area on the 84th Floor.
The views are amazing and up a bit further is the revolving deck.
Great photo opportunities and when your finished theres a little bar up there to sit and have a drink and take in the view.
The Baiyoke Tower was opened in 1998 and the building is 309 metres high.
There are 2060 steps from the bottom to the top and if you did this it would take you more than an hour to reach the top. (Much easier by lift).
The piling runs 60 metres deep underground or about the height of a 22 storey building.
Go up the lift from the lobby to the 77th floor.
There is another lift to the 83rd floor for the revolving deck on the 84th floor.
Open Monday - Friday: 10.30 a.m. - 10.00 p.m. and weekend + holidays: 9.30 a.m. - 10.00 p.m.
Adults 120 baht and children (up to 120 cms.) 60 baht

 View from Bayoke Sky
Hotel, Bangkok by tashka
When traveling, it is always good to find a view point to see a panoramic view of a city or region.
In Bangkok this place is the Bayoke Sky Hotel.
You can have a nice dinner on the 76th or 78th floor and then go up to the open rotating area almost on the roof and have a look at the huge city! Leave a Comment

 Bayoke Tower by SamuiDean
The day we visited was cloudy so views were limited but it was still an enjoyable trip.
- 76th Floor: Sky Buffet
- 77th Floor: Observation Deck
- 84th Floor: Rovolving Roof Deck
The Baiyoke Tower II was opened in 1998. This building is 309 metres tall. The area inside this building is about 30 football fields. There are 1,740 window panes in the building. There are altogether 2,060 steps from the bottom to the top. It takes more than one hour to reach the top. The piling runs 60 metres deep underground or about the height of a 22 storey building.
Sky Buffet: (76th floor)
Bufffet lunch 11:00am - 2pm
- adult 310 Bht and children 155 Bht
Dinner 5:30pm - 10:00pm
- adult 410 baht and children 205 baht
Getting Up There:
If you are at the ground floor of the building I strongly recommend you take the glass elevator behind the ticket booth to the 77th floor. The elevator is on the outside of the building and it offers amazing views of the city as you are taken up to the observation deck
If you are at the parking lot, take the elevator down to the ground floor and then follow the instructions above. The view is far better than taking an elevator up from the parking lot. Leave a Comment Directions: Near the Pratunam Market

 BaiyokeSkyObservatory by xuessium
The building is 309m tall (or about 182 people standing on top of each other). If you find taking the lift a hassle, try the 2060 steps instead for a 1 hour climb. Do not worry about not seeing the view, the building has 1740 window panes. Less you worry about earthquakes, the piling of the tower runs 65m deep underground (~22 storey building) and the inside of the building occupies an area of 179400 square meters (or about 80 soccer fields).
Look for the ticket booth at the entrance of the Hotel. There is a separate lift you'll take to reach the apex. The first stop: the 77th storey for a quick browse through some exhibits and drown yourself in statistics. Connect to another lift, and you'll be on your merry way to the 83rd where you'll get to walk around an air-conned observatory area (and maybe buy a souvenir) before going for the real thing: the rotating observatory on the 84th in open air.
See BKK in circles.
After you're done spinning around, hop back to the 83rd, hunt for the rooftop bar to claim a free drink (anything on the menus for 200 Bahts or less), take some breathers before you go right back out to conquer BKK again.
Entry is 200 Bahts (circa Nov 07) Leave a Comment Directions: From BTS Siam station, take 1 stop to Ratchathewi station. Exit down the right hand stairs, take a right at the next main intersection and walk down Phetchaburi until you see Platinum department store (10-12 mins walk). Or take a tuk tuk/taxi to the area.Website: http://www.baiyoke.co.th

You can buy a ticket only for the view or you can buy a combined ticket whick also includes the restaurant (food's not included). The combined ticket is 410,- Bath.
You get a spectacular view of this enormous city! You also get to visit one of the better buffet-restaurants I have ever visited. Not because of the service or atmosphere (except for the view though..), but an amazing buffet of varios food from all parts of the world. Leave a Comment Directions: You cant miss it... Its supposed to be the tallest building in the world!
