Bangkok’s new chic club - The Nest
In the latest edition of Conde Nast Magazine, there was a special section called the 2008 Hotlist, where the editors list some of the best new hotels, restaurants, spas and nightclubs around the world. Being a frequent traveler to Thailand, their listing for a new bar in Bangkok caught my eye. Called the Nest, this unique rooftop bar is partially outdoors and is located on the top floor of the popular LeFenix Hotel in the heart of the tourist zone. Opened in February 2008, the Nest has a primitive chic decor with grass floors, comfortable daybeds and padded hammocks. The musical selection here leans towards ambient lounge music and soft Latin jazz.
I usually don’t go out to many bars or nightclubs in Bangkok, as they are usually are very congested and the music is so loud you can hardly hear yourself think. Furthermore I abhor hiphop, rap and disco music, and most bars that I have been to in Bangkok usually play this kind of music in an effort to attract the younger crowd. The NEST sounds like my kind of place – I will have to check it out when I return to Bangkok sometime in early November. Stay tuned…

I too read the Conde Nast Traveler magazine article from the May 2008 issue and plan to visit the Nest during an upcoming trip to Thailand later this month. Also, thanks for mentioning the fact that it is located in the LeFenix Hotel. I will provide an update upon my return to the States.
