Nightlife Pattaya has an excellent reputation as one of the party places in Thailand. As the sun sets, the lights come on, and the bars and clubs open their doors wide. Youâll find plenty of spots for dancing, drinking, eating, and chilling out in Pattaya â and itâs not all about neon lights and beer. Pattaya also has its classier side with some top cocktail bars and boutique hotel restaurants. Here are some suggestions for a top night out in Pattaya.
1) Horizon Bar
The classy Horizon Bar at the Hilton Hotel is 34 floors up, providing tremendous views across Pattaya and beyond. It is, in our opinion, the best place in Pattaya to watch the sunset and enjoy some cocktails in peaceful surroundings. The music isnât too loud, and the dĂŠcor is stunning. Horizon Bar is great for after-beach or pre-club drinks in Pattaya.
2) Hard Rock CafĂŠ Pattaya
Set on Beach Road, Hard Rock is another Pattaya institution that gets better every year. There are various outside terraces for cocktails, and thereâs usually a house band and guests every night. Look out for the special events, parties, and offers â there is usually something cool going on at the Hard Rock.
