The Okura Prestige's 24th-floor terrace, where a north-facing Bangkok skyline pairs with a discreet hotel-bar drinks programme.
Up and Above sits on the 24th floor of the Okura Prestige at 57 Wireless Road, three minutes from Ploenchit BTS. The bar opened with the hotel in 2012 and runs as an indoor lounge plus outdoor terrace facing north across Lumpini Park to the Sukhumvit skyline.
This is the room for a drinker who wants Okura-grade service and a north-facing Bangkok skyline without the Lebua queue. Skip it if the brief is a destination-cocktail counter or a club-bar crowd.
Walk in or contact the bar via official channels. For weekend table seating, confirm hours through the bar's site or social pages.
The space runs as a 90-seat indoor lounge with a 30-seat outdoor terrace on the north side. The Infatuation's 2024 Bangkok hotel-bar piece called the terrace 'the quietest 24th-floor seat in the city for a Friday sunset', noting the Okura's culture of seating-by-pace.
The list runs short and the bar runs it on its own terms. Order from the signatures.
Skip the off-list improvisations on a first visit. The published list is the room's editorial position; the bartenders built every serve to earn its place.
The crowd is 70% hotel guests on a weeknight and 50% Ploenchit professionals on a Friday or Saturday. r/bangkok rooftop threads consistently flag the 5:30pm to 6:30pm window as the best for an outdoor terrace seat before the sunset rush.
