HOBS @ ICONSIAM - A GOOD AND CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE TO A SKY BAR
Normally, Bangkok’s Sky Bars are located in or on immensely tall skyscrapers, towering over Bangkok. In this case, HOBS @ ICONSIAM is a little one among the big ones, but a very fun place to visit! With stunning views of the Chao Phraya River and Bangkok, this fun and affordable spot deserves a spot on the list. Housed in the upscale ICONSIAM shopping center, HOBS offers its guests delicious snacks and dishes including a lot of different beers. After all, HOBS stands for House Of Beers. But luckily, you can also order a soft drink or delicious fruit juice….

The sixth floor of ICONSIAM
HOBS at ICONSIAM is located on the sixth floor of the super luxurious and mega large shopping center ICONSIAM. On this beautiful floor, which looks a bit like an alien world (so beautiful), it’s all about good food and drink. Here you also have the entrance to the Tasana Nakorn Terrace on which HOBS is located.

The Tasana Nakorn Terrace
In addition to the special indoor area, the sixth floor also houses an insanely cool terrace. The terrace is shared by two catering establishments including HOBS. HOBS simply comes out best and we can definitely recommend it. Not only based on what others say, but also based on our own experiences.
WOW What a view from HOBS!
The Tasana Nakorn Terrace where HOBS is located is built on the river side of ICONSIAM and overlooks the Chao Phraya River. If you look further, across the river, you look at the Bang Rak district with the Silom area behind it. Two striking buildings that immediately stand out as you walk onto the terrace are the MahaNakhon building and the Lebua Hotel which houses Hangover III’s famous Sky Bar. If you look around, you’ll notice many more landmarks such as the adjacent Millennium Hilton Bangkok with its ufo-shaped Three Sixty Bar, part of the Chinatown district and the Ghost Building.
The House of Beers
HOBS, or in full House of Beers offers a wide beer selection with dozens of craft beers and beers from around the world. They are even importers of Belgium’s Hoegaarden and Leffe in Thailand. These are then also available on tap. Not surprisingly, because the company behind these two Belgian beers is a major shareholder in HOBS. But HOBS is so much more than those few Belgian beers, go see and taste for yourself!
More HOBS
By the way, there are several HOBS stores in Bangkok. For example, you can find a HOBS The Playhouse in CentralWorld , as well as in the Megabangna shopping center and in the hip neighborhoods of Ari and Thonglor. There is even a HOBS in the coastal town of Hua Hin! Unfortunately, at the time of writing (January 2022), many businesses are temporarily closed due to the Covid-19 situation. Of course, we sincerely hope that they will soon reopen the doors of these establishments. However, the HOBS branch in ICONSIAM is open.
Unfortunately, the last time we were here (December 2021) we didn’t have much time. On the schedule was to watch the sunset from one of the first sky bars we ever visited, the Three Sixty Rooftop Bar at the Millennium Hilton Bangkok. We ordered some snacks and two drinks that were delivered pretty quickly. The service was extremely friendly and everything looked clean and well cared for. The drinks tasted good and the three snacks from the fryer were fine. Next time, we’ll stick around again until it gets dark. The changing skyline of Bangkok from day to night from this terrace is truly magical. HOBS @ ICONSIAM is a top spot!!!
