TL;DR
Some hotel bars with dancing and a DJ now close at midnight, but you can still catch themed parties (like a Latin night on the 38th floor) or book an evening tour combining a ride, dinner, and live entertainment show.
The hotel bar with dancing and a DJ now closes at midnight — drinks stop being served and guests are asked to finish up and head to their rooms. Overall service quality hasn't dropped despite this.
On Fridays and Saturdays, the same hotel opens its 38th-floor restaurant for a Latin-themed party — though it's a one-off event, not a regular fixture.
As an alternative to a hotel bar, consider a desert tour with riding (like quad bikes or camels) — well-organized and enjoyable even for solo travelers.
This type of evening tour usually includes dinner and a live performance show after the riding activity — a good option for those looking for entertainment beyond the hotel.
