The Pool After Dark at Harrah's is the venue that we recommend to every one of our readers.

New York, NY 10014
If you're the type that really likes to be in a nightlife space where you can rub elbows with A-listers in a candid environment, it doesn't get much better than New York City's infamous Boom Boom Room. Not only does it boast one of the best views that the Big Apple has to offer, but their signature cocktails are made with precision and attention to detail. Unless you have a black AmEx or are well connected, don't expect to frequent this place.
#4 Top Club in the U.S. – XS3131 Las Vegas Blvd
Las Vegas, NV 89109
There’s something about cabanas that really gets the nightlife crowd interested in a club, that’s why when the makers of XS in Las Vegas decided to put in 30 cabanas, it was just a recipe for success. Now one of the top clubs in the nation, XS is a common stop for anyone looking to have a great time in Sin City.
#5 Top Club in the U.S. – Mansion
1235 Washington Avenue
Miami Beach, FL 33139
Once you land in Miami and start filling out your itinerary, the first thing you should mark on there is Mansion nightclub, one of the top clubs in the U.S. The most popular nightclub in Miami since its doors opened, it attracted names like Paris Hilton, Diddy, The Kardashians and many more. This place is always a hit regardless of the night you choose to attend, and that definitely makes it one of the best clubs in the U.S.
#6 Top Club in the U.S. – TAO
3355 Las Vegas Blvd
Las Vegas, NV 89109
Las Vegas receives an insane amount of visitors on a daily basis, and it’s pretty fair to say that a majority of these guys want to visit TAO, one of the best nightclubs in the U.S. There are an insane amount of options in Las Vegas, but TAO sets itself apart in service and décor. The 10,000 square foot club is nothing but nightlife energy, enticing options to indulge in any mood.
#7 Top Club in the U.S. – Pacha618 W 46th Street
New York, NY 10036
With locations around the world, Pacha already has a reputation for hosting the best big-name DJs, so it comes as no surprise that Pacha NYC gets great talent and packs the house week in and week out. The 30,000-square-foot nightclub is split into four levels, each decorated in their own unique way (dancers grinding in showers, for example). When the night falls and the DJ takes the stage, Pacha turns into a maze of crazy characters all geared-up for a night of dancing until the early morning hours.
#8 Top Club in the U.S. – Rain
Palms Casino Resort
Las Vegas, NV 89103
There’s nothing like a big nightclub in Las Vegas, and Rain always comes to mind first for us.

They bring in some of the best entertainment in the world, as well as some of the biggest crowds on a consistent basis.
#9 Top Club in the U.S. – Tryst

#10 Top Club in the U.S. – SET320 Lincoln Road
Miami Beach, FL 33139
SET nightclub is without a doubt one of the most attractive nightlife venues in all of Miami. While it may not stack up in size like other clubs in South Beach just around the corner, it makes up for it in its aesthetics. The décor at SET nightclub is impeccable and transports you into a chic atmosphere like none other, which is why we chose it as one of the best clubs in the U.S.
#11 Top Club in the U.S. – LAVO NYC
39 East 58th Street
New York, NY 10022
Talent buying can make or break the reputation of a nightclub, especially in New York City. That's where LAVO shines. They've already booked some of the best talent in dance music from around the world, and continue to do so on a consistent basis. The fact that it's prominent name also carries massive weight on the west (LAVO Las Vegas) truly makes it a nightlife powerhouse on the national scene.
#12 Top Club in the U.S. – Nikki Beach Club
1 Ocean Drive
Miami Beach, FL 33139
If you’re looking for a globally known name in entertainment, then look no further than Nikki Beach Club. Even locals that frequent this venue week in and out feel like they’re on vacation once they step foot onto their sandy cabanas. The staff always makes sure to deliver superb service, and the drinks and menu are always at their best.

Los Angeles’ nightlife scene is as unique and diverse as any in the nation, but when it comes to a great club that can stack up to the best around the world, it’s all about Playhouse in Hollywood. This isn’t your typical small hotspot, but a 13,000 square-foot palace that brings in some of the best DJs from around the world.
#14 Top Club in the U.S. – Webster Hall
125 E 11th Street
New York, NY 10003
Webster Hall is commonly said to be the first modern nightclub in America. Since it first opened its doors in 1886, Webster Hall has grown to become a staple in nightlife and live music for some of the biggest club DJs in the world. In 2004, Prince declared Webster Hall “The Best Stage in New York City” and who are we to argue with Prince? Don’t be alarmed if you see stilt-walkers, trapeze artists, fire-breathers or go-go dancers roaming around one of the parties at Webster Hall. It’s all common for this historic nightclub.
#15 Top Club in the U.S. – JET Nightclub
Mirage Resort & Casino
Las Vegas, NV 89109
If you’re making a list of the top U.S. nightclubs in the nation, there’s no way that you could exclude Jet Nightclub. They’ve been booking some of the best parties in the nation on a consistent basis, and when you pair that with the sophistication of the staff and luxurious accommodations for their VIP guests, you definitely have one of the best club in the U.S.
#16 Top Club in the U.S. – Beta1909 Blake Street
Denver, CO 80202
When guys like Steve Lawler and Pete Tong say that Beta is one of their favorite places to play in the U.S., then you know there's something special about the Denver, Colorado nightclub. The sound in the place is absolutely crushing, combine that with the A-list talent they bring into the booth and you have one of the best nightclubs in the U.S. This is the kind of club you'd typically find in Europe, but it's nestled right in the heart of Denver.
#17 Top Club in the U.S. – Cielo
18 Little W. 12th Street
New York, NY 10014
For years, Cielo has been one of the toughest doors in the NYC scene. But having a tough door isn’t the reason why this place is ranked on our list of the top 25 clubs in the world. From 2004 – 2009 the posh party haven has racked up tons of titles, including “Best Deep House Club” (New York Magazine, 2006), “Best Club” (ClubWorld, 2008) and “Best Party” for Dance.Here.Now (ClubWorld, 2009). Perhaps it’s the world-famous DJs this club attracts or perhaps it’s the reputation that continuously propels Cielo’s success. Either way, the nightclub has gained a reputation that makes it easily one of the best clubs in New York. And you know what they say, “Once you’ve made it in New York City…”
#18 Top Club in the U.S. – Spy Bar
646 N Franklin Street
Chicago, IL 60610
Spy Bar is considered by many (including us) to be the best club in Chicago. Just last month the club brought in incredible and diverse talent including A-Trak, Treasure Fingers, Damien Lazarus and Peanut Butter Wolf, and even the off-nights with resident DJs Kalendr, Inphinty and Dino G have the crowd tearing up the dance floor. Friday nights get the big name guys, but they never forget to show the Chi-town talent some love, which is why we consider Spy Bar to be one of the top 25 nightclubs in the U.S.
#19 Top Club in the U.S. – Avalon Hollywood1735 Vine Street
Los Angeles, CA 90028
If there’s one place where everyone in Los Angeles could agree is a great nightlife venue, it’s Avalon Hollywood, one of the biggest nightclubs in California, and one of the top clubs in the U.S. It’s a big face that packs in a lot of bodies, but most importantly it brings in the best talent in the city, from bands to world class DJs.
#20 Top Club in the U.S. – mur.mur
One Borgata Way
Atlantic City, NJ 08401
The name says it all. In Atlantic City mur.mur is the closest thing you can get to an actual New York City club. What we like best about mur.mur is that there isn’t anything cheesy to it, like a strobe light or neon lazers zapping into your eyes. Instead you get soft shades that create a mood in the club that screams sex.
#21 Top Club in the U.S. – Club Space
34 NE 11th Street
Miami, FL 33132
Club Space is known throughout the world by house music heads and one of THE best clubs in the U.S. for club music, and it definitely is. Week in and week out they bring in the biggest names in electronic music and create memories for locals and visitors that they take with them for years to come. Their Terrace is without a doubt one of the best places to be on a Sunday morning when the sun creeps up on downtown Miami.
#22 Top Club in the U.S. – The Highlands6801 Hollywood Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90028
Two words come to mind when someone brings up The Highlands to us, spacious and classy. While a majority of places around the country are smaller and seem to bring in that aura of class, this place has the space to do it. There’s something for everyone at this Hollywood hotspot, so whether it’s hip-hop, house or classics, this place has it for you, making it one of the top club in the U.S.
#23 Top Club in the U.S. – Fur Nightclub
33 Patterson Street
Washington, DC 20002
With four rooms that are open four nights a week, there’s a vast array of experiences that you can have a Fur nightclub. There are always great specials at the bar and you can always expect to see young faces in the crowd that are looking to leave the troubles of the 9 to 5 at the door and let loose on the dance floor.
#24 Top Club in the U.S. – Rumor Nightclub
100 Warrenton Street
Boston, MA 02116
If there’s one thing we like in a nightclub it’s variety, and that’s exactly what Rumor has in Boston. Whether it’s house, Latin, R&B or reggae music, chances are you’ll get exactly what you’re looking for at Rumor. This place gets absolutely packed on a consistent basis which is always a good marker of a top nightclub in our books.
#25 Top Club in the U.S. – Muse Lounge
717 6th Street
Washington, DC 20001
When it comes to nightclubs everyone wants the best experience that they can find in town, when in DC that experience is at Muse Nightclub and Lounge. The sultry venue brings in great entertainment and the sexiest faces in the Washington area. Their VIP area is one of the best and continues to strive to bring its customers unparalleled service.
