One of Bangkok’s latest rooftops bar has just opened. Designed by Japan’s Super Potato, the Hyatt Regency Bangkok’s Spectrum Lounge and Bar is a multi-faceted venue extending over three levels starting from the hotel’s 29th floor. It features design pieces ranging from Thai art to musical instruments. The Thai influence also comes through with a scene of the Chao Phraya River decorating one wall and backlit panels with local patterns shedding light over the space. During the day, it can be used as a private dining facility but morphs into a bar in the evening with floor-to-ceiling panoramas of Bangkok’s skyline. The spacious living room entices guests to linger with deep, cushioned chairs and wooden tables spread out over a blue carpet. The indoor bar creates an edgier vibe with a sleek, black marble countertop. An alfresco terrace spans levels 30 and 31 and features a large open deck with seats for two and alcoves framed by verdant trees with huge daybeds and private tables. A selection of tapas like smoked Scottish salmon and Russian caviar atop bagels, Wagyu beef sliders and crispy soft shell crab is available. Craft cocktails, wine and a comprehensive beer selection make up the drinks menu. www.hyatt.com
