A must for any bachelor party traveling through Las Vegas, the Playboy Club on the 52nd story of the Palms Fantasy Tower mixes a posh bachelor-pad themed lounge with several card tables and gaming areas. But this club is more than a lavishly decorated tribute to the famous gentlemen’s clubs that preceded it; it is now a swanky place for almost anyone to hang out and have a drink.
You’ll feel like James Bond (or perhaps his female partner) as you sip a martini in this glamorous casino/nightclub. As an official Playboy Club, centerfolds are seen throughout, though they’re tastefully displayed in a way that isn’t offensive to a mixed crowd. And every detail of Playboy Club is extravagantly attended to. Upon entering, the first thing you might notice is the Diamond Bar, which is made up of 10,000 diamond-shaped crystals representing all the glitz and sparkle of Las Vegas. There’s also a 60 foot wall covered in plasma screen TVs playing clips from Playboy days past. Even the bathroom is Playboy-esque, with pictures of Playmates adorning the walls. And with leather sofas and zebra skin high-back chairs, Playboy Club has a decidedly seductive feel.
And what Playboy Club would be complete without bunnies? Here, you’ll get a chance to be served by one, as the waitresses, hostesses, and even dealers are in full Playboy Bunny regalia. However, their uniforms have been redesigned for the new millennium by clothing designer Roberto Cavalli. The bunny logo is also seamlessly woven into every detail of the club. Its silhouette marks a glass wall revealing views of the Las Vegas Strip, it’s emblazoned on the sofa buttons, and bunnies form a pattern on the carpet.
With nine blackjack tables, a roulette table, and video poker at the bar, the Playboy Club is the only Vegas nightclub offering high-stakes gaming in addition to upscale digs. Moreover, the club is a favorite spot for male stars to celebrate a special occasion or hang with the boys. Combining the glamour of Las Vegas with the elegance and beauties of the Playboy brand, the Playboy Club is an ultra-chic place to lounge, Hugh Hefner-style. |
