Usually not worth it. Google 4.6 (499 reviews) for Vertigo TOO and views are universally praised, but what's open now is an indoor room, not the famous open-air deck.

A classic special-occasion view — but confirm the open-air rooftop is open, or treat Vertigo TOO as an indoor dinner with a view.

Why Reality is 39

Lives up to its fame3/5Google 4.6 (499 reviews) for Vertigo TOO and views are universally praised, but what's open now is an indoor room, not the famous open-air deck.
Value for money2/5Hotel-rooftop prices (set dinner ~฿3,100); the ฿999 buffet is fair, but food is often called average.
Can’t get it elsewhere3/5Bangkok has many high rooftop bars (lebua, Mahanakhon); Vertigo's open-air deck was distinctive, the indoor substitute less so.
Easy to do2/5Central and near MRT Lumphini, but the headline rooftop is listed as temporarily closed with no confirmed date, and you must book and dress up.
