The rooftop bar at Bangkok's most-hyped hotel opening of 2017 is finally set to open, offering an ideal spot to knock back alfresco drinks overlooking Phloen Chit. 

The 36th-floor, garden-styled rooftop terrace at the Park Hyatt will be unveiled as part of Penthouse Bar + Grill's New Year's Eve party.

Since opening to much fanfare in July, Penthouse Bar + Grill has been tight-lipped over the opening date of the rooftop bar, which is the crowning glory of Park Hyatt's three tiers of restaurants and bars perched high above the city.

Entry to the party is B2,000 at the door, which comes with "one glass of premium Champagne" and will feature disco and house music from DJs Kurrypup and Tek Harrington, plus live soul and funk from The Lowdowns. For more information, see the Facebook event page.

Penthouse Bar + Grill, 34-36/F, Park Hyatt, 88 Wireless Rd., 02-012-1234. Open daily 4:30pm-midnight
