THE WORST PLACE. went in for Mardi Gra party. was in line from 10-1am. No further measures were put…read morein place to accomodate afterthe official MG party closed. Rooms overcrowded and over boooked. security and safety hazards all round. trip carpets, having to use the fire escape stairs to access other areas of the club. I'm talking 5 flights. Was the worst night of my life. Ivy would put profit over having a safe event and that was clear. reaching out them for a refund for the night as the whole event was a catastrophe. there are many other clubs in Sydney to enjoy. just stay clear of this because you will not have a good time.

I went last weekend the first time to this location and have to say that's an amazing place to go…read morecrazy! Very nice people and friendly staff in this location and I find they have a awesome show for their guest's. I really loved this night with my friends. We tried the different dance floors but unfortunately we found the pool area at last. :( Next time we will go first to the pool floor... They play house, dance, black and RnB but not sure which type of music they play on the pool floor. Big minus for the entry prices what is $40 but you can buy tickets only for $35. Price for drinks are still okay between $5 to $8 but I tried just Beer and Bourbon. All in all a very awesome location which I can just suggest. For me a place you must see in Sydney.

Most pretentious, dirty and overpriced club in Sydney. Honestly don't understand how they can…read morecharge over $30 for entry, $12 for spirits & then not have a working toilet in the whole establishment. Security is everywhere, yet still doesn't manage to weed out all the girls and guys that can't stand up straight, and the guys who think sexual harassment is a norm when a girl has a drink in hand. To add, the Music is below average. Definitely not worth a single dollar to get into that place- if I could rate less than one star I would. You'd have a better time going to a pub in Penrith and sinking beers with the boys than going here- and you'll still have a full bank account afterwards.

So I was pretty smashed on a Saturday evening at some seedy-underground art event in Chippendale…read morewhen my cohort sent me a text to come out to Chinese Laundry. I'm not one for clubbing, but being as inebriated as I was, I replied with an expletive followed by way too many exclamation marks - it looked something like "F*CK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Upon arriving at the corner of Sussex and King street, we had to carefully maneuver or way down a flight of stairs before falling into one of two (2) lines: "Guestlist" and "You're Paying Cover Dumbass"... unfortunately for us, we queued in the latter. $25 dollars later, we're walking into this grimy, balls-sweating, dark-as-night room with the loudest bass your ear drums can endure.. IT WAS AWESOME!!! Whoever the DJ was that night, he was laying down some pretty sick electro-house remixes. I made my way down the hallway to the toilets and guess what I found? Another room! A smaller room with a decent bar setup. The music was more down-tempo trance - a dungeon for druggies to chill out on whatever they're tripping on. Upstairs in the smoking patio, they had a DJ spinning Hip Hop & Top 40. Lighting is a lot better and there's a tiny dancefloor by the DJ booth if you're up to getting your groove on. Definitely a more relaxed area to chit chat with your friends and cool off before you head back down to break your neck in the main room. $25 is pretty steep for a club and this was definitely more fun because I was intoxicated. So fellas, bring your ladies here if you want to dance, not to have a romantic night out. Be sure to bring shoes you don't mind getting dirty and PLEASE WEAR SOME DEODORANT!!!!!!!!!!!!

No other venue in Sydney seems to cater to so many different genres…read more The downstairs area really does feel like a real club. Low ceilings, great speakers and loud music. While outdoors there's a fantastic beer garden which is big enough to let you breathe but filled with enough people to give it a buzz. Not to mention the cool air as you walk out from the hot inside area. Upstairs (when I was there last) had some RnB playing and so pertained to a bit more sleaziness on the D-floor. But it really does offer so many different alternatives for many different types of people so you can easily slip off and find some much nicer people to talk to! The drinks are quite expensive, but you'll be guaranteed a good night.

A true Latin night club that plays dance music in Spanish every Saturday night. This is not a…read moreclassic salsa place, and the dancefloor is the same as any night club, so come with street shoes. The music varies between salsa and all the other varieties of Latin music, with tons of pop, reggaeton and clubbing hits from Latin America. A place to come have a drink with friends and shake it on the dancefloor. When I was looking for Latin clubs on Yelp and Google, this one did not appear. I found it by chance and added it because it's definitely a place I would go back to party at. Drinks are basic, prices are decent, crowd is nice and lots of ppl dance. Located centrally in the heart of the CBD: Enjoy

The spot to go to if you're looking for Spanish music in Sydney. However, be aware of weird alcohol…read morelaws/rules bartenders expected us to know what those were. Music was great, but the place is very small and very crowded. I felt like I was running thru a defensive line trying to get to the bathroom. Limited sitting so girls should wear comfortable shoes.

Home got me pretty divided at the first impression. Mainly because of the security which is rude…read moreand acting stupidly. The security which ask me : "you come to club and you don't have cash" with sarcasm when I ask if you can pay the entrance with card. They wanted me to go grab cash and do the queue again, fortunately one security guy let me enter and withdraw (inside bar or club you have a fee though...) Don't expect security to do their job properly they are rude and acting stupid. But once the security pass you will discover why they might act like this. The place is huge ! I come through Homebar and thought that I paid 15$ for this small place and finally discovered their was an other floor with deep house, then an other room with rnb, and then a huge room with house, commercial music (but it was a nice mix and good music). One waiter was arrogant and acting like a real ass*le when my friend ordered a drink. I decide to check the other bar and their were great. Smiling, friendly and automatically giving you a glass of water ! Be careful of the price my friend ordered whisky Coke and paid 20$ I asked for Jameson Coke and paid 10.... Had a lot of fun in this club and went back fews time for great night, the only problem is security, but once they know you they are more easy and friendly. Some advices: Be ready to dress elegant as they are not scared to refuse people (girls included) and be careful if you have a ticket, home bar entrance is on the left home club entrance is on the right. And go early before 10:30.

Used to be amazing. Unfortunately it's no longer the gritty, underground club it once was and is…read moreinstead a sterile bar that happens to have a dancefloor. The primary cause of these issues is staffing and security, which the venue unfortunately hugely struggles with. Security are all externally provided and they are inconsistent in ability and approach. They don't understand the vibe of the venue or its clientele, and don't have the chance to build up a rapport with locals and regulars. I recommend avoiding this place, and would warn against pre-purchasing tickets: you just don't know who is going to be on shift that night and therefore what the vibe is going to be.

You'll find Home Bar in Darling Harbour, right on the wharf, beside Home Nightclub. Although the…read morevenue is quite small for a bar in the CBD, the atmosphere is excellent. They have live music playing at around 9pm, which can get on the loud side, but never fear, there is outdoor seating, away from the noise! Although I caution against sitting there in winter, there are no heaters and harbourside can get bitterly cold. The drinks are fairly cheap, the crowd is friendly enough, and the ambience is pleasant. It's a nice bar to unwind at after a long day at work, or to wind up at before hitting up a more exciting venue.
