The first place on my list is one of the most well-known too! Located right underneath the Arc de Triomphe, it’s impossible to beat l’Arc’s view. Imagine dancing the night away in one of the most sought-after clubs in Âé¶¹APP. Now picture the decadent boulevards of Âé¶¹APP lit up before your eyes and the magnificent Arc de Triomphe shining in the distance. Mix it all together and you have yourself a dream come true. This is the atmosphere at l’Arc Âé¶¹APP!

Popular DJs play a mix of hiphop and house on the weekends, and draw pretty exclusive crowds. A serious hotspot during Âé¶¹APP fashion week, l’Arc is filled with international socialites in the off seasons. Definitely a spot to see and be seen.

Given the club’s exclusive status, getting in can be a challenge. The bouncers tend to be quite strict and they have a firm dress code. So bring out your most fashionable outfits and hope for the best.  If you want to ensure entry for a larger group you can book a table in advance on .

L’Arc is situated in proximity to several of Âé¶¹APP’s renowned landmarks. Enhance your experience by complementing your nightclub visit with a Âé¶¹APP landmarks tour, allowing you to explore more of the city’s iconic attractions.

Chez Raspoutine

Set in the famous clubbing area between the Arc de Triomphe and Avenue Montaigne, this is a legendary Âé¶¹APPian nightclub. At first glance, Chez Raspoutine looks like any other glitzy spot on our list of top 5 most luxurious Âé¶¹APPian nightclubs. But this club has quite the colorful past!

This place has been around since 1970. And during the early years, Chez Raspoutine was actually an upscale Russian bordello and cabaret! In the seventies, the club was popular with celebrities like Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot.

Since being transformed into a nightclub several years ago, Chez Raspoutine has become quite the hotspot. Today, Chez Raspoutine is one of the hottest nightclubs in Âé¶¹APP. Holding true to the original Russian style, the interior features exquisite red and gold furnishings. And the very Baroque-style decor and velvet alcoves give a nod to it’s racy past.  On any given night, Âé¶¹APP’ elite fill the dance floor and mingle at cozy tables. And from Thursday to Saturday, resident DJ’s pump heady electro music until 6 A.M. Since it’s open so late, the party doesn’t really get into full swing until around 2 in the morning. So this is definitely a place where you can truly dance the night away in Âé¶¹APP!

Entrance can be tough, the bouncers are extremely discerning. Your best bet is to and try to book a table. Or simply dress to impress and try your luck at the door, you never know!

Silencio

Perhaps you’ve heard of the next spot on our list of the top 5 most luxurious Âé¶¹APP nightclubs. Almost everyone has heard of Silencio. In Âé¶¹APP, the club’s eclectic crowd and eccentric reputation precede it. Silencio is unique because it’s actually a members-only arts and cinema club in the early evening hours. But this legendary Âé¶¹APPian spot opens it’s doors to the (elite) public for clubbing at 11 pm.

Conceived from the imagination of David Lynch, this underground club is one of the most exclusive in all of Âé¶¹APP! Located in the middle of Âé¶¹APP’ hip 2nd arrondissement, this club draws a fashionable, artsy clientèle.  But what really sets this place apart? Silencio is literally under the streets of Âé¶¹APP! That’s right,  at Silencio, you’ll actually be dancing the night away in 700 square meters of Âé¶¹APP’ lively underbelly.

The intimate cavernous space is punctuated with chic lighting and minimalist decor, which help to play up the cool underground vibe. The entry hall opens into the the main room where you can find the dance floor. One of the things I love about Silencio is there’s music from all genres there. From DJs spinning experimental deep house to vintage old school hip-hop, Silencio has got it all. There’s even a photo gallery and a smoking room; for that old Âé¶¹APP artistic vibe. But no matter the night, the club is always populated by chic party goers.

Entry isn’t easy, but if you can manage to pull it off, you’re sure to have a night to remember. After all, it’s not every night you can party in one of the most luxurious Âé¶¹APP nightclubs!

Up next on our list of the most luxurious Âé¶¹APP nightclubs is Le Marta. Sharing a wall with luxury hotel Le Fouquet’s, Le Marta is truly set in the heart of the 8th arrondissement, among picturesque Âé¶¹APPian glitz and glamour. This luxurious speakeasy-turned club has actually been flying under the radar these last few years while it underwent extensive renovations. And I must say, the final result doesn’t disappoint. This classic spot came back with a bang in 2019!  Le Marta has once again become the place to spend a night out in Âé¶¹APP.

Le Marta is located on Avenue George V in the 8th arrondissement. This is known to be one of the most upscale Âé¶¹APPian avenues, home to some of the most prestigious shops and hotels in the city. Plus, the club is just a stone’s throw from the Champs-Elysees. Amidst impressive Haussmannien façades is one the most luxurious Âé¶¹APP nightclubs! But be sure to look carefully. The entrance is actually hidden behind an antique bookshelf, which contributes to the club’s secretive, luxurious vibe.

Once inside, you’ll be treated to luxurious decor, candlelight and red velvet accents with upbeat music. It’s almost like taking a trip back in time to the Jazz age in Âé¶¹APP. Almost, because the music isn’t jazzy at all. But rather it features the latest chart-topping tracks. Le Marta is open until 3 A.M. so if you’re into a classic, sophisticated vibe and modern music.. what better place to dance the night away in Âé¶¹APP? This is it!

Le Piaf

Nestled in the glamorous confines of Âé¶¹APP’ 8th arrondissement is Le Piaf. You’ve probably noticed by now, but this area is pretty much the hotspot for upscale clubs in Âé¶¹APP! Perhaps the most glamorous spot on our list of the most luxurious Âé¶¹APP nightclubs is Le Piaf. If you’re wondering if the name is a nod to iconic parisienne singer, Edith Piaf, it’s actually completely unrelated! Fun fact: the club’s name comes from 19th century Âé¶¹APPian slang meaning “little songbird”.

During the early evening hours, Le Piaf is an upscale restaurant and bar. So this is a perfect option if you want to have a dinner or drinks out before going clubbing! Red velvet plays a central role, and gold accents and framed portraits adorn the walls. Classics like foie gras, truffled risotto and canapés are served up on vintage plates. Plus, their extensive wine and cocktail menu ensures you won’t leave thirsty. Come night, this luxurious Âé¶¹APP club is definitely known for drawing in the city’s best dressed night owls.

Head down the stairs in the back of the restaurant to the dance floor. This is where the partying takes place! For a cool, speakeasy-type feel, the room is again lined with velvet benches and covered with touches of gold and red. Elegant and sophisticated in terms of both decor and clientèle, the Piaf manages to exude a retro feel without being kitschy.

But what about the music? Well, a grand piano and a DJ booth are visible in the corner. But the music varies from day to day. At Le Piaf, fresh new artists fill the club on weeknights and more renowned DJs usually take the helm on weekends. But the genre ranges from jazzy to electro, so be sure to check online, in advance.

A unique elixir to sustain the famed Club des Bains. The famous pool, Philippe Starck’s black and white checkerboard floor, and the lava stone bar, a stage for outstanding shows, concerts, and events, all pay vibrant respect to the club’s illustrious heritage. The doorman at the Club’s entry ensures that the atmosphere remains diversified. Les Bains Douches Club is a hot hangout for those that match the bill; being extremely creative, open to new experiences, and always looking for new ones.

Because it is in the most affluent part of town, you can expect to encounter a lot of local and visiting celebrities, wealthy socialites, and high-class tourists.

By day, Matignon features an adjoining restaurant that serves outstanding French cuisine. The cuisine is, as expected, costly, but it is well worth the money. The restaurant can get very busy, so it is best to reserve ahead of time rather than just showing up when you want to.

The main club, which opens later in the evening, is located beneath the restaurant. Throughout the night, the venue has a respectable dance floor and amazing features. Depending on the night and the occasion, expect light shows, confetti, professional dancers, and so forth. The club plays a mix of French techno, international techno, and American remixes.

The Yoyo is a nightlife and events venue located in the center of the Palais de Tokyo, where the former auditoriums of the iconic French Cinémathèque previously stood. It is operated by Âé¶¹APP Icons.

It is torn between its extremely vibrant festive program (sound and visual experimentation, events, dance, electronic music) and its more corporate role of hosting a wide range of private functions (cocktail receptions, conferences, film screenings, private parties, fashion shows, conventions, product launches, plenary sessions, and much more). The minimalist concrete backdrop of the Yoyo makes it the ideal spot for Âé¶¹APPians to come and dance the night away.

Club 79

Club 79 is located directly on the Champs Elysées and appears to have picked up where the (previously fantastic) Queen club (now somewhat naff) left off. A diverse range of soirees is available, frequently including well-known worldwide DJs. Carl Craig, Kenny Larkin, Little LouieVega, Tiefschwarz, and Josh Wink are recent guests. Entrance is frequently no more expensive than that of other clubs (about around 15 euros).

If your weekend simply continues going, they also have a club night on Mondays that is free all night for Laydeez. The Club 79 appears to be ideal for a fun night of clubbing close to your hotel. It’s an extremely private club, therefore getting access is difficult. Make an effort to dress neatly and stylishly. Suits and pullovers are entirely acceptable for men.

Le Baron

Le Baron nightclub is one of the city’s sexiest hangouts. It will provide you with a unique, creative environment in which to unwind with your lover or friends, combining old-school boheme with new partying trends. This is not your typical rave environment or music.

The decor is one-of-a-kind. You’ll be transported to a red light party in a sophisticated club, surrounded by beautiful people dressed in appealing red lighting. The small candles and the occasional yellow or amber light lend much-needed warmth to the room, creating a romantic atmosphere.

The drink selection is very strong, with a focus on French wines of all sorts and vintages. Ask your bartender what drink they recommend for the night and follow their advice for a more enjoyable experience. In this venue, the music is mostly EDM and remixes; there isn’t much popular music or top 40s-style singles.

Zig Zag Club

The Zig Zag Club is a nightclub in the Champs Elysée Pavilion. It is a transient club that only operates on weekends and has primarily electronic music-oriented programming. With its great dimensions, Zig Zag can accommodate 1200 people and has a massive central dance floor and a spacious mezzanine.

Fun is a guarantee here since the club showcases local and international DJs, as well as a cutting-edge sound system that will keep the party going. This club has a really cheerful and vibrant environment, and it is ideal for going out with friends. This nightclub offers a large range of drinks; cocktails are a touch costly, but they are all quite tasty and expertly crafted. The club is open Fridays and Saturdays. They primarily play EDM on their music show.

The downstairs part of Zig Zag becomes quite full, and because it is a smoking area, it gets pretty smokey, therefore we recommend that you go out on the terrace or outside regularly. The club has a €15 entry fee and drinks start at €10.
