Hotel and Hospitality News Update Pattaya City: Hilton Pattaya unveils new rooftop restaurant and bar - Horizon 


PATTAYA, Thailand – May 27, 2012 – Hilton Pattaya today opened its newest rooftop restaurant and bar, Horizon. Located on level 34 of the hotel, this latest entertainment venue is Pattaya’s only rooftop restaurant and bar that offers uninterrupted, panoramic views of the city where guests can indulge in stylish and tasteful settings while chilling out with friends. 

Boasting impressive interior design to offer guests spectacular views of Pattaya City, Horizon features 1,390 square meters of indoor and outdoor space, which includes three private dining rooms with floor to ceiling glass panels allowing for seamless views over the city and the bay. Guests can also enjoy a few drinks at the open-air Infinity Bar while taking in views of the skyline. 


Horizon is also available for reservations by guests who wish to book the venue for an extravagant and memorable private event – setting new standards for entertainment in Pattaya. 

“As a popular tourist destination, Pattaya is already well known for its wide selection of diverse and sophisticated dining options. We sought to differentiate the food and beverage offerings at Hilton Pattaya by providing a ‘modern twist’ to the food and drinks served. The exceptional dining experiences at the hotel are complemented by equally impressive views, ambience and service. We anticipate that for many international and domestic travelers visiting Pattaya, a visit to one of Hilton Pattaya’s outstanding restaurants and bars will be high on their ‘To Do list’ and naturally Horizon, with its unique-design philosophy, will top that list,” said Harald Feurstein, general manager, Hilton Pattaya. 

A truly innovative rooftop concept, Horizon was designed by the world-class, Bangkok-based architecture and interior design firm DWP, recognized for their iconic designs throughout the world. Their brief was simple; create a place where guests will understand the meaning of style, taste and exclusivity high above the world. The result exceeded expectations by including sleek, clean lines and capturing the extended space beyond the normal footprint of the building with the suspended Infinity Bar. One of the most remarkable architectural aspects taking outdoor dining to the next level is the open air “Stargazer Lounge” where guest can literally witness the relative movement of the stars through the circular opening in the overhanging roof. 

The hotel has brought on board Executive Sous Chef Shaun Venter to head Horizon’s culinary team, working alongside Executive Chef Supoj Suwanwong and Food and Beverage Manager, Simon Bender, a combination of more than 45 years of culinary experience. A new menu has been created with an emphasis on choice cuts, globally inspired flavors and fused influences; Chef Shaun uses original and authentic dishes as a base and then adds contemporary techniques and flair. An approach that is sure to please Hilton Pattaya’s sophisticated, international clientele. 

Unique by design and centrally located, Hilton Pattaya is a stunning 302-room property set in the heart of the city overlooking Pattaya Beach and the Bay, all rooms and suites feature 180 degrees of unobstructed ocean views with private balconies and part of the South East Asia’s largest beachfront shopping complex, CentralFestival Pattaya Beach.
