Palace
Palace is one of the larger go-go bars on Walking Street, having recently expanded into the space vacated by the now-closed Atlantis venue. The combined footprint gives Palace one of the biggest floor plans on the strip, with a main stage area, multiple seating sections, and a VIP zone. The expansion brought a larger stage, improved sound system, and additional bar counters. Around 25 to 40 dancers work each shift during peak season, making the lineup competitive with Windmill's. The bar targets the upper-mid market, with prices above the Walking Street average but below the premium agency bars. The decor uses rich colors and upholstered seating to create an upscale atmosphere without being exclusive. Palace draws both first-time visitors attracted by the large, visible frontage and returning customers who've watched the venue grow.

Insider Tip
The recent expansion means more space and better sightlines than before. The main stage area fills first; the side sections offer more room. The VIP zone requires minimum spend on bottle service.
Full Review
Palace's expansion into the former Atlantis space has given it the room to become one of Walking Street's premier venues. The combined floor plan is generous, which translates to wider aisles, more breathing room between seats, and sightlines that don't require craning your neck.
The stage is large and well-lit, with a professional lighting rig that adds genuine atmosphere. The sound system fills the space without distorting, which not every Walking Street bar achieves. The overall production quality sits above the street average.
The lineup is strong, especially during peak season. With 25 to 40 dancers on shift, the rotation keeps the stage fresh throughout the evening. The bar's growth has attracted workers from other venues, and the quality reflects the competitive recruitment.
Pricing is above average but not at agency-bar levels. Beer at 170 THB, lady drinks at 220 THB, and bar fines at 1,500 to 2,000 THB are fair for the quality of the venue. The VIP section requires bottle service, starting around 3,000 THB.
Palace is best understood as the grown-up choice on Walking Street. It's large without being overwhelming, upscale without being exclusive, and professional without being impersonal. For visitors who want a premium go-go bar experience that doesn't carry agency bar pricing, it's a strong option.
