    Slip Inn

    Slip in to this warren of moody rooms on the edge of Darling Harbour and bump hips with the cool kids: bars, pool tables, a beer garden, dance floors, pizza and Thai. Friday is breaks night at the Chinese Laundry club (before/after 10pm $15/25); Saturday is Laundry night (before/after 10pm $15/25), featuring local and international DJs. Can you believe Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark met his Tasmanian missus here?

    Favela

    This place may actually be too flashy even for Sydney. A nondescript entrance leads into a designer’s dream bar populated by dolled-up young ’uns. If you want to splash your roubles, $500 will get you and your four most impressionable friends a Gold Room table (gold-tiled ceiling and walls) with $200 worth of drinks. In the upstairs club, the ceiling’s 8000 golden light globes throb in time to the house beat.

    Home

    Welcome to the pleasure dome: a three-level, 2000-capacity timber and glass ‘prow’ that’s home to a huge dance floor, countless bars, outdoor balconies, and sonics that make other clubs sound like transistor radios. Catch top-name international DJs spinning a homey house smorgasbord, plus live bands amping it up. Apart from special events, admission is around $20 to $25.

    Slide

    Slide inside Slide, a gorgeously converted banking chamber where a colourful crowd of sexy gays and straights shimmies across polished concrete between plush booths and the central bar. If the sound and vision overwhelms, spy yourself a candidate from the mezzanine.
