The gogo has more girls to choose from. The girls are less clothed. There is more of an intimate experience in the gogo which is nice. I have noticed that the gogo's I have visited are not as big as they appeared on the internet. That was more of a mental let down. The beer bar has friendlier girls with an open relaxed atmosphere. The beer bar complexes are nice because they offer a variety of music. The music is loud, but the ones I have visited it hasn't been impossible to listen to another. I learned much from talking to a farang/thai (married) couple at a beer bar. I would have to say that they are each nice. They seem to cater to different crowds. I have seen many farang/farang and farang/thai couples at the beer bars. I prefer the beer bar. It is casual, play bar games with the girls and the beers are more MY budget. I have spent hours drinking at both gogo and beer bar and have spent half the money at the beer bar. I have also spent the same amount at the beer bar. I think if you are a newbie you have to explore for 2 or 3 days and take the good with the bad until you find what suits you. All opinions vary and this is mine. There is a ton of people here. I have learned that many of the mid-range hotels are booked through mid january. Most of my time has been spent from Central Pattaya Road and south. ****FROM ONE FARANG TO OTHERS, I SWEAT HERE EVEN IN THE COOLER NIGHT TIME. IT IS HOTT!!!!**** teddy66

Just arrived in pattaya. Last minute decision. I have not been in Pattaya before. Staying at the ambassador. Any help on the questions below would be appreciated: Which hotels are recommended and have free spaces? Good places to eat? Things to do? best bars? Places to meet people? Music places? etc etc many thanks
