Club Review: Privé at Planet Hollywood

Atop a grand escalator, we made our way through the ebony archway of Privé‘s 12,000 square foot nightclub. Once past the magnificent foyer, and down a breathtaking hallway to your right; you can’t help but to feel the subconscious sensation Privé invokes from within. Immediately, we were impressed by the Managerial and VIP staff, they exhibited a level of professionalism and class unrivaled in the industry. The security personnel remained unobtrusive but with a certain reassuring presence. This was one of those increasingly rare establishments where each employee was obviously working toward one common goal, a fundamental one, one that should be paramount to every nightclub- ensuring the satisfaction and enjoyment of each and every guest.

”Encompassed by the opulence that is Privé, and enjoying the main room’s DJ inspired atmosphere, we ordered a drink at one of the three full service bars. Extremely well made cocktails and spirits are served by an attentive and talented wait-staff. We watched as club goers moved to the DJ’s mix of house and hip-hop. The 350 square foot dance floor provides a more than an adequate surface area to satisfy the dancing mood. Privé boasts a spectacular audio system brought to life by a total of 16, 21” drivers, driven by 48,000 watts of “very real” premium power. We at SceneLasVegas, wanted to take the time to research the audio specifications here, as Privé is the first venue in Las Vegas to implement the Funktion One’s newest low frequency product, and the system is definitely a feet of engineering worth hearing. We made our way about the rest of the club, taking care to enjoy all that is offered to the senses. The Multi- tiered VIP, where European bottle service is available, is arranged in a stadium effect around the main room’s Brazilian cherry dance floor. There is also an area slightly recessed to the right (when looking at the DJ booth) for those in search of seating slightly more private. The VIP sections at Privé are as they claim- “designed with fun and function in mind.” If you continue through this venue’s clever layout to the left, you will find a second full service bar. This bar borders a hallway that will guide you to the exit, or back to the entrance, via a supremely tasteful smaller room. This room, equipped with its own DJ and plush seating, is the perfect spot to rejoin those you came with, or get to know those you’ve just met. Upon leaving Privé we realized this fairly new venue has far surpassed the majority in Vegas. A special thanks to Greg Jarmolowich, Jeff Kovatch, and Mason Thibodeau, not only for our all access visit, but for finally bringing this long awaited level of nightlife to the Las Vegas Scene. It is this kind of seamless operation and renowned environment that re-defines Vegas nightlife, and will continue to bring Privé, its staff, and creators, well deserved success for many years to come.
