Hakkasan was a bit of a mixed bag. The staff was really nice and the club wasn't overwhelmingly crowded, which was a plus. But the floor was *super* sticky and honestly kind of gross--it definitely took away from the vibe. Music was just okay, nothing that really stood out or made the night memorable. Not a terrible night out, but probably wouldn't rush back.

No food, Drinks overpriced. I was charged $1,300 for a bottle of Grey Goose. The waitresses got my husband drunk and then added a second tip totaling $2,500! The bill already had $1,000 gratuity added then she tried to get him to sign for an additional tip. Watch your bill or you will be taken. No food. Club was average definitely not worth $8,000

Despite the review bombing of clubs - I'm maxing out this review because it is well deserved! This is the BEST CLUBBING EXPERIENCE we've ever had! We are folks who come from nothing and get ratchet out in the Bay Area too! So we get down! Cam took care of our reservation by booking us a balcony for Tyga. When we checked in, the check-in dude offered to upgrade us $200 total for one of the tables next to the stage. For a group of 14, that's a steal! Erica was an amazing host/server. She kept laughing at us all in fun when the drunk fam/friends were checking in on me while she was giving me the rundown on the bill and how it all works. They just makin' sure we don't get screwed over and we didn't! She sat at the booth border area where the adjacent tables party kept bleeding into our spot. She kept them at bay while we didn't have to worry. Chris - I think the head security guy for us - Faizon Love lookin' dude. He was nice, accommodating, and did his job with grace. He kept the other side of the neighboring tables at bay as those chicks were trying to get in. My girl got a little too close on this step near stage and Chris gave me the gesture to where I was like I gotchu homie. And we handled that. He even escorted all the girls to a private bathroom and back to the table to clear out the way. I cannot emphasize enough the service we got with the experience of a lifetime to club it out stagefront to Tyga with the fam for her 30th! What a banger to end the clubbing lifestyle! Tune in about 9 months from now ;)

I came here on a Wednesday with DJ Franzen & I saw from the flyer from the promoter it was a R&B night, which R&B is my favorite genre of music so I was really happy about that. The music didn't disappoint playing everything from old school R&B to new school. If coming here, I would suggest arrive early because it was getting packed as it got later. It was smooth going in & easy to find the exit for the parking lot. As with most hotels, you do have to go through the casino to exit, but that's expected. I would definitely return & it's on the strip. If you're like me with your hotel on the strip, this was a 6 min cab ride.

I don't know a ton about clubs like this because I'm originally from MN and we don't have a ton of traditional clubs. However we were visiting Vegas and staying in the MGM Grand where this is located so we figured we may as well see what's up! My boyfriend got us in for free with a promoter so that was great and as a girl, I got free drinks from like 11pm - 12 am or something like that. We were given our wrist bands and the bouncer vaguely pointed where to go. There was a bunch of rope making a big line that was completely closed off so we went to an area behind it slightly because we thought that's where we were supposed to go (we were like the first people in line). When the bouncer came up and saw us and the rest of the people in line he kind of rudely said to the other bouncer "Look at this shit" and very clearly laughed at us as if we were stupid which made me feel quite embarrassed. Especially because we weren't from there, we hadn't had a lot of experiences with clubs and I was already nervous. Other than that the experience was pretty good! We were the first group of people in there (we got in for free so I'm not complaining). The lighting was gorgeous and the space was pretty cool! There's like 4 bars in the place and two floors to the venue. We had to wait an hour to get my free drinks but once I did they were good! They obviously weren't super strong because they were free but, there was no limit so, as long as you can drink quickly, you could definitely make it worth it. The bartenders were very quick and they were nice! Music wise, it wasn't totally my thing. I feel as if they mostly played rap which isn't unexpected but I feel like it doesn't make for the best dancing. I wish it was more early 2000's, RnB, etc. I also think the DJ had kind of awful transitions into songs and expected more smooth flowing mixing for a big club DJ in Vegas. Wasn't awful and people seemed to enjoy so, whatever. They brought dancers out in front of the booth around 1 am and that was cute! Overall, it was a decent time! Very pretty lights and mostly friendly staff!

By far one of the worst clubs I have ever been to!! This was the second stop on the Sin city club crawl (Groupon club hopping) and I wish they skipped this, there was no room not even for standing. The dance floor was blocked off. Everything was a dead end. Just horrible. And Vegas clubs are nothing like Miami: a mix of everything including commercial radio songs. You won't ever see me here again!

Not normally a club person, but only two reasons got me to come in the first place: Steve aoki and my friends bachelorette's event. I think those are two perfectly valid reasons. My friend got the bachelorette package, silver i think, which comes with a table on the 2nd floor for us and mixers, juice, hydration, red bull. You do get what you pay for, worth it for the peace of mind and comfort The atmosphere of the club was good we got a nice view of the dance floor; however, I see that to prevent overcrowding there's a body limit to how many can be on there at any time. Another unexpected thing to happen was that Steve aoki never showed up, because his flight got delayed in Miami. To make up for it, the back up DJs were still decent to keep the vibes up the rest of the night.

I went to Hakkasan nightclub, the largest in the United States, on a Friday night. I checked in at the promotion entry to the left with No Covers for free entry, and the staff was professional and organized when checking patrons in. Hakkasan may collectively have the most professional, courteous, pleasant, and customer service-oriented security staff I have ever encountered. I asked one security staff about the additional level access, and he informed me that only the main room would be open that night and that access to the massive club would resume in the summer. I met a lady who wanted to walk to her car and retrieve her flip-flops because her feet hurt. The security staff said we could return inside since we had a stamp and would only have to go through the security protocol and metal detectors again. I have attended nightclubs where security carries an overly tough, combative, and condescending attitude, and it's unnecessary, so I was super impressed that none of the security had a Napoleon complex. The lights inside alternated between blue and red hues, and the main room had a decent-sized dance floor and two large bars on the polar sides of the room. The patrons were primarily caucasian. However, there was some of every ethnicity in there. On the night I attended, rapper OT Genesis performed around 1:15 am and did a solid set. The dress code claimed to be strict in writing. However, it seemed anything goes inside. I saw a man wearing a full-on crip blue bandana outfit and tennis shoes, and most male clientele dressed super casually--the ladies I observed dressed in the classic nightclub attire of dresses and high heels. It is a pilgrimage from the parking garage to the club so expect a walk. Unfortunately, the additional levels were closed off so I couldn't run amok. However, I still had a great time! I would return, especially once they open up all areas.

Promoters, super awesome and easy to work with! Actual hospitality staff members? Assholes who think they own the earth. There is an algorithm all clubs use in Vegas, and it's the more females in a group (preferably attractive), the more free things you'll get, but that rule can also be applied to life itself. Not sure how much tickets cost, but we were permitted free entrance for GA after meeting a promoter. The venue was small and the dance floor felt even smaller, especially considering they have world-renowned DJs who perform here. There are lots of shady spaces and shady guys. If you're a female, I would advise sticking to your groups and making sure you get into sections where they cut off the general public.

Way too crowded and expensive for the experience. You would think the A/C and ventilation would be better, but no. It was packed and hot in there. Plus, I was charged $130+ for 2 drinks...2!!! It's ridiculously expensive and definitely not worth it.
