Pastel Rooftop Bar & Mediterranean Dining
22nd floor, Aira Hotel, 14 Soi Sukhumvit 11, Khlong Toei Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110
Book the edge seats. Four rows of tables run the perimeter and the outer ones go first, especially around sunset. Lead with the Wagyu Raviolis Niçois and the Calamari À La Provençale, and the Pastel Chocolate Mousse if you make it to dessert. The room is built for groups of four and up.
You take the lift to the 22nd floor of the Aira Hotel on Soi 11, step out, and the room opens to red velvet banquettes, intricate wall designs, and a Bangkok skyline that runs almost uninterrupted in the sunset hour.
Mediterranean is the kitchen's centre of gravity. Wagyu Raviolis Niçois, Royal Lobster Pasta, Black Opal Wagyu Ribeye, Truffle Pappardelle, Oriental Lamb Shank, and Calamari À La Provençale anchor the mains. Pastry leans classic: Strawberry Panna Cotta, Chocolate Lava Cake, and the house Pastel Chocolate Mousse. Ingredients are farm-to-table and the cocktail list runs alongside a large wine selection, Margaritas, and champagne for the larger orders.
The atmosphere shifts through the night. Pastel programmes live dancers, drums, and saxophone alongside DJ sets, and the room is genuinely built for sharing rather than for a quiet date. Convivial, festive, and louder than the neighbouring rooftops on a Friday.
The dress code is firm. No sportswear, no beach clothing, no slippers, sandals, or flip-flops; gentlemen should avoid sleeveless tops or open shoes. Plan accordingly if you are coming from a pool day.
Nearest transit is BTS Nana, 260 meters along Soi 11, and the hotel offers 4 hours of complimentary parking which softens the calculation if you are driving from the Sathorn side. Open daily 5 PM to 1 AM. Reserve the edge tables for sunset and arrive a touch before 6.
