Hotel bars have become synonymous with relaxation, entertainment, and socialisation. They offer guests a wide array of options to unwind and indulge while imbibing their favourite alcoholic (or non-alcoholic) beverages. 

From elegant rooftop bars, and throwback taverns serving bar food to restful lobby lounges and lively sports bars, there is a bar for every taste and occasion. Let the Pan Pacific Hotels Group team take you on a journey through the different types of bars found in hotels here in Singapore as you tick off the ones that please you most.

The lobby bar (or lobby lounge) is often the first encounter guests have upon entering a hotel. This versatile space serves as a relaxing sanctuary close to your accommodation where guests can enjoy a drink, socialise, or simply unwind after a long day of travel. 

Often serving light snacks, hotel lobby bars are open throughout the day and into the evening. They are ideal for getting into the mood for your stay. 

At Pan Pacific Orchard, the Pacific Breeze Lounge offers a luxurious respite in the city for all-day refreshments and afternoon tea, with intimate seating spaces perched above the Lobby’s azure waters.

Atrium Lounge, located in the magnificent Pan Pacific Singapore, serves as a wonderful introduction to the world of hotel bars. As the first bar guests encounter upon entering the hotel, the Lounge offers a welcoming ambience where visitors can relax, enjoy a drink, and socialise. With their open-concept designs and inviting atmosphere, both of these lobby bars are perfect for unwinding anytime you wish.

Found in upscale hotels, cigar bars offer guests a refined atmosphere where they can enjoy a selection of cigars along with their drinks. These establishments often feature well-stocked humidors with diverse cigars, ensuring that aficionados and novices can find something to suit their preferences. The relaxed ambience and the aroma of fine tobacco make cigar bars a haven for those seeking a touch of luxury.

Tiki bars are commonly found in resort hotels, particularly those nestled in tropical destinations. These bars transport guests to a Polynesian-inspired paradise with exotic cocktails in elaborate tiki-themed glassware. The vibrant and laid-back atmosphere and refreshing tropical flavours make tiki bars an ideal setting to unwind and embrace the vacation spirit.

Some hotels take inspiration from the Prohibition era and create speakeasy-style bars that harken back to a bygone era. With hidden entrances, dim lighting, and classic cocktails, these bars offer a sense of mystery and nostalgia. The speakeasy atmosphere allows guests to immerse themselves in the allure of the past while enjoying meticulously crafted libations.

Hotel bars are integral to the guest experience, catering to various preferences and occasions. Whether you seek a relaxing ambience, vibrant nightlife, scenic views, connoisseur delights, sports excitement, or a tropical paradise, each type of bar brings a unique charm that adds to a hotel's allure.
