With a logo that highlights the numbers six and nine, Club 9 & the SiX Lounge is a name befitting a playground for creatures of the night. Seductively housed in shades of white, black and red, Club 9 features two levels that separate a lounge and dance floor, illuminated in a spectrum of colours by a scattered disco-balled ceiling and a pulsating strobe.

Supperclub, the new kid on the Hartamas block, is rather hard to miss. For one, it has prominent neon signage that can be seen all the way from Mont Kiara.

If Carole King sang “You’ve Got a Friend” at a place like Quattro, the song would have no impact. However the case, Quattro’s concept is pretty cool, no matter who you call.

If you’re new to SohoKL, it can be quite confusing to locate the club of your choice given the scale of the development. Not the case for Goddezz Couture Club though – just follow the pounding bass and you’ll be on the right track.

The new establishment CapSquare has had a new edition to its tenant family in Red Square, Jakarta’s hottest vodka bar. And unlike other clubs, it’s a unique spirit without a sense of strict regulation, making it the choice place for serious drinkers and partiers!

TSB has undergone a makeover to keep itself fresh. The downstairs area is now separated into a non-smoking café and the bistro for smokers. Upstairs is where the major changes are: the bar has been spruced up to cater for a more raucous crowd, and TSB’s new crown jewel, the Star Lounge, holds place of pride in the newly-conceptualised layout as a private space for patrons to fully lay back and relax while soaking in TSB’s ambience.

After what seemed an age of pushing back opening dates, Euphoria is finally up and running. When the rumours first made known that Euphoria was going to be located in Sunway, many groaned at the distance, but decided it was going to be huge ala the Singaporean MOS. However, instead of housing several themed rooms, Euphoria manages to hold 1,500 guests via three levels and has each day of the week specifically themed.

There are clubs huddled together around an entertainment hub, clubs lined up on a street, and ones that stand alone in the city centre. Mystique is neither. Hidden on the ground floor of the Cineleisure building, its discretion reminds one of long-gone Tube at 1-Utama. Except that it's much larger, a tad less dodgy and doesn't stay open 'til 6am.

S.I.N sounds like the club your mother warned you about – S&M gear on the walls, vampires just about ready to jump you for a pint or two. In short, the name just screams shenanigans in dark, dank nooks and crannies. When we headed down for its grand launch, the location seemed to fit our preconceptions perfectly: hidden beneath a stairwell to the left of Jalan P Ramlee’s Modesto’s, our descent into S.I.N began.

The latest installment to the Heritage Row family comes in the shape of Space, dwarfed between the cream of the clubbing crop, Cynna and Loft; perhaps a location somewhat daunting for a brand new establishment of skeptically ignorant caliber.

Our visit to the Romance Of The Three Kingdom was definitely an experience we’ll need some time to recover from. If you’re in need of a sensory jolt, this is the place to be.

Much buzz has been surrounding Republic, the new bar that just opened at the new wing of Sunway Pyramid. The hype is understandable though. Conceptualised by the same people behind the popular Laundry at The Curve, citizens from surrounding areas of Subang Jaya, USJ and Bandar Sunway can only hope that it breathes much-needed life to the township’s rather lacking nightlife scene.

One of the first few bars to open up at SohoKL is Raw, and thankfully, it's done just right.

Taking over from the venue previously known as Sugar, China White is Crowne Plaza Mutiara’s contribution to the KL nightlife segment of high end nightclubs for partygoers who are into sophistication, R&B and podium dancers.

Bar Club. Just in case the name confuses you, it’s a club with four bars.

Convenience. What more can you ask to get there? LRT and KTM to boot, whatever the crowd you are, Centro is there for you.

A mention of the word “mansion” conjures images of an extravagant, huge and exclusive establishment. Such is the projected image of Heritage Mansion, an exclusive nightspot on Asian Heritage Row. And on our visit there, exclusive at the Heritage Mansion is no mere image, it’s a mantra.
