Standing tall above Bangkok's skyline, Baiyoke Sky Hotel

@ Baiyoke Sky Hotel Bangkok, Thailand.

Rising 88-storeys above Bangkok’s skyline, 309 meters tall, Baiyoke is Thailand's tallest hotel. There are 2,060 steps from the bottom to the top. It takes over one hour to reach the top. The area inside the hotel building is 179,400 sq.m., or about 30 football fields. There are 1,740 windowpanes in the hotel building, which is almost the same number of windowpanes used for over 200 town houses.

And most importantly, the hotel foundation consists of 306 piles and the piling runs 56 meters deep underground, about the height of a 22-storeys building.

If you are planning to stay in Bangkok and you have enough budget, I strongly recommend you Baiyoke Sky.. or you'll regret. The night view of the whole Bangkok can be seen... and the view is definitely stunning...
