i've been visiting bangkok almost every year since 2005 and i go to santika every time. it's a "cool" club frequented by locals, celebs, and the foreigners there are mostly expats and not tourists. in their recent renovation, they changed the interior to look like a church even with a wooden cross on a wall.

it's so sad this happened and this whole accident is shady too since the club was closing after that night since they did not want to pay the high rent dictated by the landlord anymore.

it makes me really sad looking at these pictures. these people went there to have fun and this is what happened. thai people are mostly nice and the service in santika is also very good. we would order a bottle of rum and then bottles of coke and whatever and when your glass is empty the waiter/waitress will go to you and refill your drink for you. i spent so many fun nights in this club :(

here are some pictures from inside the club taken in 2007

this was during a normal weekend and not even a holiday like new years eve.
