Because there's nothing like an arbitrary and...eclectic nightlife ranking to get the blood circulating, we present you with AskMen's list of the best clubs in the world. Much like Reuters, Guest of a Guest does not endorse these results.
New York and Miami were the only cities with multiple nods on the esteemed list, with two apiece.
Some of these places (Razzmattazz, Rex Club) qualify as nightclubs in the classic, sweaty dance party sense of the word. Three are situated in luxury hotels which, depending on your party preferences, makes perfect sense or should be grounds for disqualification. And one, New York's very own Juliet Supper Club, sounds suspiciously like a restaurant.
Finally, the list offers conclusive evidence that Boom Boom Room, incorrectly hailed as the new Studio 54 yet again, will remain Boom Boom Room no matter how hard the boomers behind it try to sell Top of the Standard.
Anyway, without further ado:
1. The Boom Boom Room, New York City
2. LIV at the Fontainebleau Hotel, Miami
3. Merah, London
4. Playhouse, Los Angeles
5. Collage, Stockholm
6. Razzmattazz, Barcelona
7. Wall at the W Hotel, Miami
8. Guzel, Athens
9. Juliet Supper Club, New York City
10. Rex Club, Paris
Hmmm. No Berghain, which for Berghain management and aficionados is good news indeed.

I've been to all of those listed here in Miami and NYC and they suck. Deafening airless boxes pumping crummy, poorly mixed top 40, with virtually no dance floor space and a pretty lame, fist-pumping, celeb free crowd.

I hope this is a satirical list taken from the likes of The Onion... Razzmatazz is for cheesy tourists and overrun with fog machines, The Rex is filled with Converse wearing Ibiza types although props for cute decor and sound and as a Stockholm native I can assure Collage is at the bottom of Stockholm nightlife only for people who can't get in to the better places and tourists (although the restaurant part is worth checking out). The fact that Juliet is on this list should be proof enough of the absolute absurdity that must've gone into this study...

What about anything in Cannes, Monaco, St. Topez or Moscow?

Playhouse I do have to say is awesome although pretty confused as to how Vegas didn't make this list
