October 16, 2018Suvarnabhumi Ville Airport Hotel & Sky Bar 64
Suvarnabhumiville Airport Hotel is situated running alongside 19R and offers great elevated views of arrivals on 19R from their Sky Bar 64 and the pool area. Ride from the terminal is approximate 10 minutes and there are enough restaurants and 7eleven stores at the main road caled King Kaeo Rd.
On the top of the hotel is the Sky Bar 64, offering fantastic views from the platform for planespotters! There are even signs stating that "photos are welcome". The owners prohibited the use of DSLR or mirrorless cameras! The bar belongs to the hotel and is open from 6pm till 1am for public but you can go up there during they day too. If its closed anyway, ask at the reception and they will let you in.
The Hotel is split into two blocks and at the end of each corridor there are rooms that face east towards the Airport so in theory these are the best for viewing. Other rooms have balconies also so you can pop your head round to see arriving aircraft. The Hotel are now aware of the hobby and I saw a couple of other guys there.
It also has a pool where you can relax and watch the traffic. From there you get 2-3 seconds "window" for taking a photo but it´s not impossible. Anyway the owners prohibited the use of DSLR or mirrorless cameras at the hotel pool. If just number crunching your ok but not for pics. If aircraft are using any of the other runways then your stuck with limited views.
Thanks to Andy O'Shea who provided the infos!

I believe this location not available anymore. They add “Do not take pic by camera and Lens” on their website .
Can`t find an info on their website, at least on the english version. Do you have a link please.

scrolling image on their website, I try to upload the screenshot, but failed. you can wait about 30 seconds until it show up
Now I can see it. I had a look on the skybar 64 website and there are no infos about the prohibition… as usual pretty strange but thanks anyway.

Is it OK for me to go to the sky bar to spot planes but not stay at the hotel? I can purchase drinks and stuff, but I have already booked hotels for my stay in Bangkok and this seems like a good location to spot in.
Me and my friend are staying at this hotel in November , someone posted about new electric wires will it block out some views of landing aircraft ?
The sky bar is fine and there are no wires as it’s very high. Just from the lower level where the pool is there might be some new power lines or from the rooms.

Thanks Julian ,I’m looking forward to my first spotting trip to Bangkok
Does anyone has experiences with spotting during the usage of flight direction 01 (in November/December) at the hotel?
Personally I would not go there as the planes are already too high. Maybe okay for heavies. Have a look at #5 which is also a 01 departure spot but which is closer to the runway end.
