Two-dimensional ferromagnetic N-state clock models are studied on a hyperbolic lattice represented by tessellation of pentagons. The lattice lies on the hyperbolic plane with a constant negative scalar curvature. We observe the spontaneous magnetization, the internal energy, and the specific heat at the center of sufficiently large systems, where fixed boundary conditions are imposed, for the cases N >= 3 up to N = 30. The model with N = 3, which is equivalent to the three-state Potts model on the hyperbolic lattice, exhibits a first-order phase transition. A mean-field-like phase transition of second order is observed for the cases N >= 4. When N >= 5 we observe a Schottky-type specific heat below the transition temperature, where its peak height at low temperatures scales as N-2. From these facts we conclude that the phase transition of the classical XY model deep inside hyperbolic lattices is not of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless type.
