Same same the one in Patong, big freezer, with a vodka bar, barkeeper and two girls who went in whenever they had a customer.

I know what you mean but if you go in with a Thai girl they love it; as they have never expereinced cold before.

My friend who used to study at Edinburgh University and she was from Thailand and used to go nuts when it snowed and said she loved the cold as it was something she had never felt for 25 years in her life.

I think it is as much for the Tourists taking their girlfriends in there as a target market; it was always when I went in the Patong one.

Never seen the place busy, day or night!

Good place to get your eye poked out by bra-less Farang girlies I guess!

nicke dragged me and a few others in the patong one in nov,couldn't wait to get out as it reminded me of home to mutt!.

Nicke · #10 30-07-2008, 16:16

Yeah, I have only been there two times. The one you and me went to is not the one mentioned above, we went to v2o between Tiger and Happy Road. (The first one in Patong, the one outside Ocean opened later and I have never been there).

Its fun to try once or twice tho.

Admit it TB.You were just missing your climate from the sunny (when) shores of the West Coast of Scotland.

Oh dear i have just realised the date of this forum sorry i am so late.
But listen people, The ice bar in Koh Samui is nothing like the other bars you mention. I havent been to the Phuket one but went to the walk in freezer type bars you mention in Bangkok and Pattaya and they are crap. The samui one is in a different world. It is much much bigger and is more of a Thai culture ice museum than a bar. Do not be fooled by the other ones. I now make a point of going back each time i am in Samui as the staff are so welcoming. ( i agree though, you only need to go once to eperience the ice bar)
This has to be in the top 3 things to do in Samui. If you decide to go i cant wait to hear your comments.

Nice first post. Suppose you are the owner of that bar?????

svet2 · #15 19-09-2008, 22:03

Lol. Wish i had that sort of money. I did make good friends there though and didnt think it was deserving of the comparison with the others. If it was crap i would say it was crap

luv u long time · #16 19-09-2008, 22:10

They have another ice bar in Pattaya connected to the Amari hotel:
Amari Nova Suites
254 M.9, Soi Petchtrakool
Pattaya City 20260

But I found it a little bit expensive 500 THB for 20 minutes of free drinks.... wodka, rum ect ect.

Cheers,
