Drai's After Hours

Drai’s Nightclub inside The Cromwell is the best nightclub in Las Vegas. It is called me Drai’s After Hours, a late-night club that opens at 2 AM and lasts until early morning. It’s an awesome nightclub with a high-class crowd, and I absolutely loved it. This is the true meaning of American nightlife, and it’s a must-visit when you’re in Las Vegas. Surprisingly, it’s not too expensive. They have all kinds of drinks and even offer hookah. We got a table there with a couple of friends and had an amazing time!

🤦🏼‍♀️ I wasn’t allowed in because of my outfit the first time I tried to get in. this time i was but then immediately i saw a girl barefoot. boots are in the club, see through outfit in the club, chains in the club. yall are exhausting

Not sure if I should be rating but from the experience I had with them its a nice spot and a short walk from the strip. Booked a ticket on a night with a celeb performance and arrived at 1am. Staff told us it was 250/pp. FREE TICKETS must arrive really.

Not handicapped accessible, 1000.00 to have a seat is ridiculous but if you can stand all night and wait for the artist to come out after 2am then this is the Las Vegas Party. I end up going alone because my party couldn’t even get past the parking lot. I had a ball seen E40 got on the guest list. Drinks 22.00 each plus tip and parking 25.00

Great place after hours, line wasn’t a long wait. Second time in Vegas and definitely a great club and the vibes were amazing. The bartenders were amazing and great customer service. Tory Lanez happened to show up and was the dj for a a while, that was fun!! Definitely would come back if I return to Vegas.

Very bad experience. It is simply scam. Disgusting gin tonic in plastick cup for 28 USD. They are talking about dress code but club is full of people in trucksuit, sneakers and caps like people from carousels. We have bought tickets for 50 cent. We have left club at 2:15 am and concert still doesn’t start. Save money and don’t go to this overpriced place full awkward posers.

I went to Drais After Hours for the first time on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, 2023. I recommend purchasing tickets to presale online because they will undoubtedly jack up the price at the door. When purchasing presale tickets, select the correct day according to Drais After Hours standards. I bought a presale ticket for Saturday and attempted to enter early Saturday morning at approximately 4:15 am. The bouncer informed me that despite the day being Saturday, I should return on Sunday around 4:00 am. For instance, if you go to Drais nightclub on Friday night, purchase an after-hours ticket for Friday, even though it will technically be Saturday once you arrive. The After Hours is super disorganized, and they do not operate as professionally or smoothly as Drais nightclub. The After-hours don’t have a presale ticket line which they should. Despite having a presale ticket, I watched people jump past me because they paid a “ convenience fee” to skip the line or knew a bouncer. After standing near the front line for some time, I informed the bouncer that I had a presale ticket, and he let me through. The bouncers never made any announcements regarding presale entry; they focused on announcing that patrons could skip the line if they paid “ convenience charges.” I showed the bouncer my presale ticket and headed down the stairs to the nightclub. Once I reached the front, the cashier informed me that I had to get a ticket upstairs to gain entry. Again, no one communicated this to me upstairs. Therefore, I had to walk upstairs and show my ticket in the area located to the right of the entrance door. I skipped back toward the front of the line because I had waited so long! The inside of the club has a bat cave feel with red lighting, and three areas have a dance floor. I liked the vibe, and it has a more down-to-earth feel than my beloved Drais nightclub. People danced and mingled inside the packed lounge. I would return, because I liked the scene inside. My review could have been a 5-star. However, based on how extremely disorganized the staff and line for entry are, I deducted two stars. They need to tighten up their organization in a major way!

These reviews have to be fake. My first time in Vegas with my wife for her birthday. We googled a night club and ended up choosing this spot. This is one of the worse spot we have ever been. The security guards are ready to fight anyone for any small things. Don’t go there if you want to have fun and feel comfortable. Shout out to one of the guys at the very front entrance he was a gentleman.

Been going to after hours for years, this, by far, is the best place to end (or start) your night. From the guys at the front, Parris, Brian and Bobby (and more) to security (Devin and crew) to the best service from Vance, Abby and the rest of the team, this place feels like home to so many of us. I have been to many after hour spots and this is hands down the best for service, ambiance and music. Some nights my friends and I skip the "regular" club and go straight to After Hours because it is always a safe and fun place to dance and hang out. The staff goes out of their way to make sure we are comfortable and having the best time. If you decide to go on a busy night, you do have to get their earlier or book your table in advance because it gets a bit hectic in the front, but be patient cause its worth it!

Drai's After Hours has the best vibes. I absolutely love how they are so accommodating on their services. I went for my birthday and had a blast it was a very busy weekend as it was Super Bowl weekend. Tables were sold out for bottle service and l was super bummed thinking l wasn't going to be able to seat my party. But the Drai's team worked their magic and got us a table we had ordered a hookah and drinks all night so much fun. I highly recommend Drai's After Hours when in Vegas.

We went here 2 nights. First night was a Thursday. No cover. Great drinks. Good music. Cute guys. Good time. Second night was a Friday and ladies were $40 guys $60 but if your dressed like a prostitute you get in for free which is super sketchy to me. Idk what was going on in the club but if that is the vibe I don't want to go. Yes it's Vegas and it's an after hours club so you're gonna get but it sucks they only cater to that on Friday nights. Would have been nice if they could let groups in that just wanna dance and have fun. It was like unless you're here to find someone to go back to the hotel room with your not welcome. Again. First night was. Blast. Second. Ight they were on some bs.

Vance and Abby always provide the best service. So professional, makes sure everyone is having a good time, just the best! Drais afterhours is def the best afterhours spot in town.

I've been coming to drais AH for many years and it is without a doubt my favorite club in town! the staff is friendly, the servers and bottle girls are sweet and the securities make sure that you feel safe and comfortable. The ambiance in drais after hours really sets the tone to continue your Vegas nights the right way! there is multiple rooms for dancing, sometimes with different DJ's and different genres of music depending on the day of the weekend it is! If you're ever in Vegas looking for an after party, look no further because this is it. Perfect place to be if you're looking for late night vibes!!!

Of all the clubs that were on the strip Drai's is the only one that doesn't have a guest list so expect to pay to enter (unless you know people). We came at the end of April for my friend's bday weekend & she really wanted to see a hip hop artist. T.I. was the only person we could find that weekend for night club. Sadly, his performance was not all that great. He played a few throwbacks but the rest were his newer songs but no many people knew them. However we got a good view with a booth one level above the dance floor. We all had a good tome! The restrooms are downstairs & came in clutch with almost all the necessities we need. Some things need to be paid for & some are complimentary. Thank god for Vegas clubs having these.

This is the longest running club on the strip. Vance and Abby always take great care of me whenever I come in with guests whether it's locals or from out of town. The lighting makes it a perfect place to "hide" but also keep the party going. It's always a great time and they now offer hookah nightly which is a plus! If you're not sure what to do after the club, or just want somewhere to go and stay out, I definitely recommend Drais AFTERHOURS!

The crowd was a little young for me, but great ambiance. I am 43 and need to find a more age appropriate club for me and my peeps.

The dj is awful. I didn't hear a single song from the last 15 years. This dj must be stuck in 2005. And he was ugly. 'Direct'ed myself out of that club

First time in Vegas and was trying to follow a nights dress code. But let me tell you right now they let you in if you are wearing sneakers and jeans, if you even think for a second you don't want to wear a heel, don't. With a head fee of $40 for women they don't care what you wear. Drinks were about $17-$21 (from Well drinks and to whiskey sours).

The last stop on our party bus tour was Drai's After Hours night club. First off drinks were expensive, but accepted as a midwesterner. $21 for a single shot! Wow! At any rate the club overall was nice. Until I had to use the mens restroom. I simply said was a man. Period. At the end of the day that is it. No one should question me and what identity I present. The security accosted me several times after I said that I was a l man, literally stalked me because I walked away from their ignorance. They stated I had to speak with a manger, why? I don't have anything to say to them I don't have a problem, you do. So I left. Although I physically do not look like a man, once I state what I am everything should stop. I should be left alone to my own devices. There was not a single soul other than the bathroom attendants in the bathroom, but there was a problem? Strange. It wasn't like I was whipping anything out for anyone to see, and there was a lock on the stall. Go figure! Security apparently must be paid by the number of persons removed because they did their best to track me down. Once removed from the club, I went up to the outside security and explained they needed some sensitivity training. The young lady asked if I wished to speak with a manager... repeated my issue. The manager looked at me with glazed over eyes and said "Ok". I laughed because he clearly did not give a f*ck. I do hope this establishment gets its act together. Las Vegas is clearly a diverse and inclusive community and city.

Me and my friends had a great time!! We enjoyed the atmostphere and the music. Hope to be back soon.

Hey, I just want to give a quick shout out to my VIP host Brian Pfeiffer 773-459-8133 he said us up with a Great tables for the entire weekend after we found them on the Internet... Even though he was out of town, he still had one of his business partners meet us and get us into Drias after hours, which we really enjoyed.... The club is a boutique style hip-hop after hours and it was just what we needed when we arrive to Vegas will definitely be back. Make sure you hit up our host he'll set you guys up

I used to love this place, we decided to check it out and give our support during Covid. I've recommended and brought many people to this place. But as of now, this lady is done. Not only do they not give a S*** about your safety when packed amongst unvaccinated random people, but as a woman who's dressed up, wearing heels, there isn't a place to sit. After drinking all evening, coming in for a few cocktails and some dancing, the last thing many of us want to do is purchase over 500+ in alcohol in order to sit down. But that's all they care about, squeezing every last dime out of you. No comfort or consideration for the ladies. Wear some pumps all day and see how that feels. The design is beautiful, the people who work within are professional and for the most part friendly. I just wish we had this place as a real dance club, one that truly cared about creating a cool scene with a good vibe.

This place is a joke. Management and staff is terrible. Came from North Carolina, brought 4 girls. $160 to get in for all of us. We got kicked out after a couple of hours because one of us was "throwing up" in the bathroom. First it was apparently me, then it was someone else in my group, then when we wanted to see the so-called camera footage they had, the manager had a stupid look on her face. Bottom line, we weren't spending money so they wanted us out. But hey, if you wanna spend a lot of money for a terrible environment-- this is your spot!! LOL. Also they play the same 10 songs on repeat and I guess if you're drunk enough, you don't notice!

DJ killed it!! Drinks a little overpriced but it's Vegas... website says they open at 12 but they actually don't let you stand in line till 1am.

We were lucky to skip the line, but once inside were moved around twice for overflow paying table customers even though we were at the bar - without being offered the table for purchase on our end. To the point, this place was disappointing but our group had fun and the bartenders were great.

Horrible horrible experience! I am totally in disbelief. I came to this nightclub on the night of my birthday and I am totally unsatisfied. The experience upon arrival was very unprofessional. Security guards were very aggressive upon entry. Would not allow entry after one of my guests had a prohibited drink we bought off of the Las Vegas Strip. We were told we could not enter the establishment after stepping out to have the item discarded. This place is NOT a place to go for enjoyment. Guards are patrolling the place like its the White House o better. I will NOT revisit this establishment in Vegas. There are far more worthy nightclubs than this trash. Expect to be treated like a criminal!

Great spot for when you still want to dance and not ready to go back to the hotel. It's more chill with hookah but just as packed. So we usually hit up the spot until it closes are until we get hungry for food.

If you want to have a good time, don't come here! Nice looking place. Way overpriced, though. Also, there is no dance floor. This is not a part of Drai's nightclub. They are separate venues on opposite sides of the hotel. There is no food available, either. You have to leave the club and go upstairs to eat. Fortunately, they give you a stamp for re-entry. The sound system is great, and so is the music. We got table service, but they said a hookah purchase would not apply to our purchase minimum. Strange. Why would it matter? A fight broke out, and that was it for us. Overall experience was underwhelming and hood. I've never heard anything bad about "Drai's Nightclub", though. When I come back, I'll try that place, instead.

I've been living in Vegas for about 1.5 years and had no real club to really suit my cultural needs; that is until I came here. This is now MY FAVORITE CLUB IN VEGAS! TOPS DOWN! Came here on a Saturday night around 2am and I had so much fun. There's 2 rooms: techno and hip hop. I stayed mainly in the hip hop room. All the hits plus more were constantly being played. Loved every moment. If your in Vegas looking for a club that plays hip hop with a mix of bounce music, this is your place (and just about the only club to be exact). I will be back very soon!!!!

$60 to get in then you also have to have an even ratio of male to female when checking in also if you're not getting Hookahs or bottles they basically Treat you like you ain't shit there are plenty of places in Las Vegas that you can go instead of this place save your money don't waste your time keep your head up Kings..... Also I got a shot of crown royal and a lemonade $23 not worth it brother and the bartenders are assholes. And I tried this place twice and almost got into a fight with the bartenders both times. The first one got mad when I said something about the pour and the and the second one got mad and pointed his finger in my face then called Security myself and some witnesses told the security guards that I didn't do anything and they still told me I had to leave I asked for a refund they told me that it is no refund policy.

This place is a must anytime I am in Vegas! The music, the drinks, the people, and the ladies restroom are exceptional. However, the last time I went, my friends were kicked out because there were 2 girls in one bathroom. The security guard barged in and escorted both out. He did not understand that one was helping the other unzip her jumpsuit. He also did nothing about another girl that was trying to video tape them.

I love me some after hours music! I've gone to Drai's before its renovation and the interior still looked the same - just cleaner. The club is located at the back corner of the Cromwell, apart from the Drai's Nightclub and Beachclub. They open at 1AM and close around 10AM (sometimes even later). It starts to get packed around 5-6AM since the nightclubs end around 4AM. There's a house room and a hiphop room on the side. The crowd is diverse, the music is bumping, and if you prefer bottle service - there's plenty of tables to choose from throughout the club. There is usually always cover for both males and females. We bribed the bouncer to line cut and the ladies were able to walk in for free while the guys paid the cover charge. We didn't have any issue with dress code -- everybody was dressed differently, from dressy to trendy to casual. If you still want to continue to get your party on after the nightclubs close, Drai's is the spot to go to.

This is actually my favorite club here in Las Vegas. I have to be honest nothing compare to the vibe the feel6and people. The music and literary you will see anyone in there on any given night (celebrities included). The only reason I had to deduct a star is as much as I love the club the protocols have been questionable alot lately. They don't allow hats which isn't a big deal but have an area or a sign so I don't get through the line and have to go all the way to the Valet to put up my hat. The price fluctuations is a really big headache. Show up Friday 70, Thursday it's free, Saturday its 40, like wait can I have stability and consistency... there isn't any performance going what are we doing. Now the other is more of a medical fear. I had my asthma pump and medication on me. I was told to leave the property... THE PROPERTY!!!... because I took the emergency pill out the bottle and into a small pill holder so I'm not walking around with a bottle. That was extreme to me be cause you see all my meds I was like WTF. The security team was nice and professional about it by saying we don't agree in this particular case however this is management and the hotel request. Lastly the drinks. Some of the drink prices at the bar are a tad bit ridiculous... 25 for a long island, 12 for a bottle of Evan water, and 30 for a shot. In the same breath I say it's still my favorite here in Vegas and I love when I'm there always good times.

THIS IS ASSS! they charge 40 for girls and 60 for guys when they have the DRYEST AND RUDEST PPL EVER! fuck this place and they make you throw out all smoking devices. strickest and driest FOR WHAT! not only that, but from security guards to hosts to bathroom attendees!!! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE, i've been to vegas SO many times and have never received this ASSS service from any place! EVER!

Tip for guys: to avoid the lines (and having to bribe the bouncers to get in)... enter close to the opening time (around 2am last time we went), and get a stamp. Then leave and come back in a few hours once it picks up. There is a separate line for re-entries and it is extremely quick. This place is ok. 2 rooms (hip hop and pop-house). The house music was a bit too pop for my tastes, but I don't expect good electronic music in Vegas. Drinks are cheaper than other Vegas clubs. But it's a pretty subpar venue versus the other larger more glamorous places that Vegas is known for.

Overrated. Small, very packed dance floor. Weird, static lighting (generic red). Decent DJ. $35 for guys. $20 extra for the "VIP" wristband that gets you in front of the line into admission and at the bar. Smoking allowed anywhere in the club.

Definitely the place you want to be at the end of the night... I've only gone once, but my friends LOGE this place... they basically live bet when they aren't sleeping. When you get in, you walk down these stairs to a basement. Everything is red and dim lighting so it kinda feels like you're walking down to hell I love the ambience though. You know that everyone there is down to party so it's fun. It's pretty boujee but WHY NOT RIGHT? When in Vegas... there are paintings of women all over the walls and pretty cocktail servers walking around. During the busy season, they open both sides of the club, but during the slow time they only use one side. There are plenty of bottle service tables and places to dance. We had our own table because it was my friends birthday. So we had our own little area to ourselves which is nice because you have your own space and the bottle service girls make your drinks! But if you love dancing and having a good time, you will definitely enjoy this place. They have special guest play at the club too so I'm sure it gets pretty epic! If you find yourself here, definitely bank of getting out when it's daylight

I left Drai's Beach Club so I could go into Drai's After Hours and I had the bracelet to get in. Here comes the issue... What you see in the pictures is what is only allowed in the club. Only chicks that look like models (nothing wrong with that) but if you don't look like that DON'T BOTHER TRYING TO GET IN unless you BUY your way in & you're looking at $100+ just for an after hours spot. The bouncers & main man Spencer were arrogant pricks & assholes. Worst customer service ever. I like to club but not at places like this. Get over yourself its a job not a career.

We came here to see TI, his performance was excellent, the dancers was not what I expected I expected Drai's dancers to be more sexy and more beautiful than what I seen, but overall the club is nice.

This is the place to come if you want the party to continue! Everyone comes here after the club is over since this afterhour club is open till 8am I believe. It is located down under The Cromwell. Variety of people go, they have two rooms, a hip hop room and a reggaeton room. There's plenty or space to sit since literally no one purchases bottle service here, the lighting is red, makes you feel like it's still dark out, but once you leave the club it's daylight! Lol. I paid $25 cover charge since I was not on any guest list. Come here and prepare yourself for a good time.

Bottom line: you gotta pay to play. Or at least know the doorman. The girl in the white flip-flops? She got in. She paid the doorman. The 6 guys who looked like the cast of Jershey Shore? they knew the doorman. They were able to get a table with just 1 bottle minimum. (nomally, 2 bottle minimum on Saturdays) The PREGNANT lady and her man who looked like he was voted off Jerry Springer? they got in. He slipped the doorman $40. Drai's is the only after hours club on the strip in Vegas. The appeal of partying til 8am sure draws a crowd. I made a reservation for bottle service on a Saturday night with a promoter named David R. (who apparently resigned the day after I was in contact with him). He said he can get me in for only ONE bottle minimum. I was skeptical but went ahead since I had the email as proof. We get there Saturday night, the doorman says that the minimum for table service is now 2 bottles and he is NOT OBLIGATED TO HONOR ANY DEAL I had with that promoter since he doesn't work there anymore. WTF. Well, we didn't want to spend $800 just to secure a table for my party at this club. We didn't pay so we didn't get to play. Hence, the one star review. P.S. It's been a week now and I still can't get over the fact that a PREGNANT woman got in.

This club is a JOKE. They are unprofessional, unorganized and rude. Let me start by saying that I'm a Vegas local and in the night life industry. That said I know how this SHOULD work. Last night (and for the remainder of the weekend) Drais' is promoting a Superhero themed costume contest. Up to $200K in cash and prizes. Sounds great, right? We thought so too. The sole purpose of us attending this party was for my boyfriend to enter into the Superhero Themed contest. Upon arrival to the Cromwell, the security guard would not allow my boyfriend to enter the casino with any props for his costume. We're talking about PLASTIC swords and a light up toy gun. I can almost justify against the toy gun, but the swords made the whole outfit. We should have turned around and left right then but we figured we'd give them the benefit of the doubt. As we're walking into the club, we see 4 other guests with props and even worse, we see one of Drais' employees wearing the exact same swords that my boyfriend wasn't allowed to bring in. Again, we should have left. We get inside, go sign up my boyfriend for the contest, they take his photo and hand us a copy of the rules. I have OCD so I read through the rules and saw that the 1st round would begin at 12am and final round at 12:45am. We must have asked 6 different employees where the contest participants needed to gather and finally we found someone who directed us outside. We proceeded to wait from 11:30pm until 1:45am before someone came around to the contestants. At this time, the guy is carrying a few contest entry forms and numbers. I asked him if I could get my boyfriend's participant number. This is where it gets good. This guy proceeds to tell me that the 1st round of the contest has already been completed and my boyfriend wasn't qualified. Excuse me? This so-called contest was supposed to start 2 HOURS ago and we've been standing around this entire time just to be told that wasn't how it was going to work. He also tells me that the rules that THEY handed me were inaccurate. Those rules were intended only for a Sexiest Heroine Contest. As you can clearly see from the copy of the rules, no where does it state that, not to mention that you handed it to us upon entering. After going in circles with this kid, he insists that he will make good on it tomorrow but right now he was on a time constraint to get the participants up to the stage. Are you serious?? We have been waiting for 2 1/2 hours for absolutely nothing and now you suddenly have a timeline for the contest? I don't think so. Customer Service 101 - Don't let the customer leave angry. Well I'm more than angry and now I've made it my mission to let everyone know. I'd also like to point out that there were only 4 or 5 contestants for the Superhero Themed contest. Maybe they expected more and decided to skip the preliminary round and just do the final judging. NOPE! They had already selected the winner (The Hulk, by the way) so they weren't in fact having a legit contest. They had picked the winner at the beginning of the night and just let everyone else stand there for over 2 hours, maybe so their half empty club would actually look full. The so-called "judging" categories were Originality, Creativity, Complexity and Design. Someone please tell me what is original, creative, complex or an interesting design about a Hulk costume? What an absolute JOKE. Then the kid tells us that other people worked really hard on their costumes, implying that my boyfriend hadn't. He actually put a lot of time, effort and creativity into his REAL Superhero costume. He was Dead Pool by the way. Oh yeah and then the kid tries to say that the other guy who was a Transformer didn't qualify either. Really? You're saying that a costume that ISN'T a Superhero didn't qualify for the Superhero contest? Shocker. Don't have a themed contest if you don't even understand the definition of what a Superhero is. Just because a character had a comic book, doesn't mean they're a Superhero. Archie had a comic book too. This whole experience was complete crap. Expecting a night club to act professionally, follow the rules and care about customer service is apparently asking too much.

U.S.A. you were born to rage, so come on! Hawaiian shirts, express shirts, t-shirts, hoodies, jean shorts, chuck taylors, flats - no problem. Drai's After Hours has to be the most casual club that I've ever been to. Don't get me wrong, I saw some sharp outfits that night, but frumpy casual attire was the theme. It starts getting lively at around 3:30am and it starts to die out at around 7am. Trust me, you don't want to be that fool leaving at 8-9am. It's such a trip leaving the dark and red basement club and taking the elevator up to exit. Right when the elevator doors open you're struck with bright sunshine and lights. Then you think to yourself, OMG we've been partying all night! What time is it? No really. Wait...What day is it? Lol. Wow. The staff, (for the most part) were on top of their game here! All of the bouncers we interacted with were helpful and professional. I watched the security and ushers patrolling the club, scan continually for people that couldn't hang and they were on top of it - they were also professional and not at all rude. Also the bussers worked crazy hard all night - wiping, cleaning, and mopping up any spills instantly. I rarely see clubs put that much effort into keeping the club pristine during the event. Plus the bottle service girls were sweet and friendly. They didn't make us feel pressured to buy anything, just kept checking on us to make sure we were good. Though, I can't speak for the bartenders behind the bar, a lot of them were bitchy. Some bartenders offered us free iced waters in glass cups, but when we asked for water for our DD, a few bartenders bitched about it, trying to force us to buy bottled waters for $5. No thanks lady. No tip for you. My favorite part about this club is the ample amount of comfy seating. It's first come first serve, but you can sit at any of the bottle service plush leather couches (all night) until someone buys the table. Also, the restroom attendant has anything you can think of ever needing in the club: Altoids, gum, all brands of perfume, body spray, new hair ties, seriously everything (perfect for those that have been out all night partying, girl, refresh yoself!) - Just be sure to tip her. I'll let you in on a little secret. The pros weigh out all of the cons here. This place is perfect for the serious night owl. Pros; - Cheap cover- $20 women $30 men - Located in the basement of the swanky Cromwell Casino and Boutique Hotel (we call it a mini Cosmopolitan) - Casual attire - Ins and outs - Well ventilated- they crank that A.C. up on full blast in there - No wait for the women's bathrooms - Staff are on top of keeping it clean and pristine - Very comfy plush leather seats - Perfect for big groups of friends - Intimate environment - Very diverse crowd - 2 rooms: hip hop room (top 40 remixes, underground) and EDM house room (DJ did a really good job keeping up the energy all night) - Quality bass sound system throughout the club - Friendly bouncers/ staff - Lively all the way up until 7am! :x Cons; - $5 waters, $10 coke, $10 beers - Red lighting throughout was a little rough on the eyes - Underground basement and not that spacious. - No cell phone service- make sure to connect to the Cromwell free Wi-Fi - Bottle Service Tables take up most of the club - so barely any room to dance

I loveee Drai's, the music they play here is alot funner to dance to compared to Artisan ( the other after hours club) My friends and I came here around 4:30am on a Thursday night, and there were about 20 ppl waiting to get inside, the line situation was a bit confusing but being girls we just kinda walked right in, Girls are usually $20, and Guys are $30, but I am sure that there are some kind of guestlist you could get on. I would not pay that much for this club because they don't usually bring in any top DJs. The interior is red and black and plenty of dark corners for people to sneak into, they also had another smaller room with tables available but it wasn't open that night. The DJ played a great mix of hip hop, R&B, all music that was great to dance to, sometimes you do get sick of EDM. Drink prices are the usual Vegas prices. The crowd also had a great mix of people, we ended up staying till 6.. You should definitely come here if the club you were at has closed, and you still have the urge to party. I'd suggest you to put yourself on the guestlist beforehand just in case so you don't have to pay the cover charge though.

4:30am: TIME FOR DRAIS! Yes folks, Drais is THE after party location in Las Vegas. I can't believe I never wrote a review on this place. Any way, this posh club, located in the middle of the strip at Bill's Gambling casino, may lead you to think this place isn't that great, given that it's not a Wynn or Bellagio. But don't let its location fool you. This place has about 4-5 different rooms each with their own music. I stayed mostly in the hiphop room, where they had some comfy leopard couches to lounge on. Beware though that these couches are meant for bottle service. But I was able to sneak a few minutes to rest my feet ;) Alcohol is alcohol and drinks in Vegas are always expensive. So don't expect an awesome deal with price, but hey, I'm sure you could smooze your way through and get some free drinks if you make friends with any one mingling around the bar. What's crazy is that this place is almost packed around 4:30am, and isn't before 4am. People in Vegas seriously know how to party. So if you get into Vegas late and still want to party, or your feet ain't killing you yet from partying your butt off else where, Drais is the place to be.

Looks cool and so while planning my girls night out coming in August this is a must go to!!! I like the concept of it and after-hours are perfect. So after the Mayweather fight we will try this out , the turnt up must continue!! So looking forward to it all

Nothing, but great times everytime Ive been. LA girl so when Im in Vegas I look forward to being out pass 2am. Drais after hours is a must. Hear stories about people being turned away and the line does look like its hard to get in. My girls and I just must be pretty lucky because we've always walked to the front of the line, squeezed in with some guys and talk to security. Never took us much time or effort. Once in there we always end up faded at someones table. There was once that a few people bought me drink and had us doing shots and I ended up throwing up in the bathroom and getting escorted out. Not too bad. They walked me to my party, had soneone leave with me, gave me a cold bottle of water and sent me on my way. By the time I made it up to the casino I realized it was already 6am anyway lol. The dj always has it poppin! Last visit we were with a group from Oakland and they played a Bay mix, had it turnt all the way up! Good music, friends, red dim lighting and alcohol will having you partying to 6am with ease.

Best after hours lounge I have ever been to!!!! Came here on Saturday and Sunday night of my stay in Las Vegas. Get on the guest list or expect to make a long line to get in. Came here after the club at around 3 am and didn't leave until 7 am. I heard Drai's closes at 9 in the morning!!! Woow now that's a party!!! Never been here to eat just to party but after seeing the pictures on yelp, I think I will be coming back for the food. ;) Absolutely fell in love with Drai's!!! Not soo much for the first room, the music was kinda weird and slow and I came here to dance so this room wasn't my thing. Luckily my friends and I got invited to the VIP room and THAT'S were the fun is at!!!!! OMG the music was soo good! Nothing but hip hop and old school hip hop. The crowd is really friendly and when your here the night is young. It does not seem like its almost 6 in the morning. People are still up and the best part of it all is that THE BAR IS TILL OPEN AFTER HOURS!!! :) I was shocked!! I stoked up on my liquor before coming here thinking the bar was going to be closed but surprise surprise!! So we still kept drinking until the sun came up! Definitely will come back! I loved DRai'S! AWESOME night!!

After all these years, I can't believe I am writing my very first Drai's review. I m pretty sure I have ended up here, but in most cases when you do end up here, you are at your utmost intoxicated state from another venue. So here goes my last and final installment of reviews from the 2011 MayOD invasion which took place in the wee hours of our last day in Vegas. This is basically a continuation of the events that were happening at XS. So it was about 4:50'ish XS was emptying out and there was nothing bunch grenade shrapnel left for everyone. The lights came on at the club, and we still wanted shuffle so we thought Drais would come to rescue. I dug up Paul Kim's number, and to our luck he was working that night. I hit him up via text, and he said he will be waiting for us. So on the way there I m not sure how and what happened, but Ricky valeted his CTS, then somehow we got lost in the Encore parking structure, then we saw some Popos and thought it was a better idea to just park it at the Palazzo and take a cab to Bills. Anyway after our RickReckon/SweatShop/Royale excellent adventure we finally got to Bills in a cab. Oh between all that we almost got into a fight with some guys infront of the Venetian cab line. We saw some girls chilling out waiting for a cab, and apparently this guy that didnt even know the girls was like you guys better back off. We were like "WTF!" at first, but then decided these nades weren't worth it. Besides right after the nades, we found these dimes from AZ that were coming back and heading up to their rooms. We almost convinced them to go to Drais with us, but Venetian security started player hating. Anyway back to the Drais. We get up to the entrance and I text Paul again. Ricky was in the mood to do it up since its his last night out. So I ask Paul what can you do for us. He came back with an offer we could not refuse, a B1G1 on a Sunday night. What a way to close the weekend. I pull out my wad of cash and lick the finger tips, and then hand Paul Kim the substantial amount to make sure hes taken care of. One more important question "Paul do you guys play house here?" "Uh.. thats the only thing we play here!" What an awesome guy! So once we get up to Drais, all tables were taken. No problem. Paul found one with an empty bottle where there were squatters. Minutes later the 50 yr old and his 40 yr old entourage of nades were napalm flamed out of the booth. Bus boy quickly disinfected ever corner of the couch and table. Waitress came by with the bottles (1 mag of vodka, and 1 patron). We were back in business. As the night went along, we were drunk and then we some how manage to kill more drinks. I honestly did not feel like drinking anymore since we already killed one bottle from XS atleast, and several more earlier in the day at Wet. However we need to keep this thing rolling. Sure enough Paul was checking up on us, and I m like "BRO you need to do patron time with us!" He was down as hell! He even did two shots with us and poured me an extra one! Then I got super excited and was like, "waitress.. YOU TOO!" "nooo sorry" Aww dang, thought it was worth a shot. So we shut down another club. 3 in 24 hours. At 8:30ish after filtering through all the bottle whores we somehow had these two girls with us on the way out. I was holding the bottle tight like a baby and security stopped me. They advised me that I can make our drinks and put it in plastic cups. Yea boy, I ain't giving up none of this likka. The rest was a blur, and I some how ended up at my room. I was expecting a tiger to rush at me, but it was just me hitting the mattress and getting some good Zsss. Whata way to end a trip. Drai's is THE closer of all parties. Shout out to Paul Kim for running a tight ship and staying up, while most of us don't remember to come here. We will now though.

Its 1AM or beyond and you're still drunk. You're ready to party, find more adventures, but get shuffled out of the club you're in. Where do you go? Drai's After Hours is definitely one option. First off, Drai's After Hours is not the same as Drai's Nightclub. The After Hours location is actually in an elevator that leads below the Cromwell. Look for it near the front entrance of the Cromwell. Without being on the guestlist, it is $20 for girls and $30 for guys - at least on the Friday I went. The club opens at 1AM and closes...around 10-11AM depending on the crowd/mood. So when you come, unless you want to look at the decor and have a really chill talk with your friend or the bartender/staff, come around 2:30AM-3:30AM as its very, very quiet before. Beware though as the closer you come around that period - the longer that line becomes. Once it hits that time though, the place is pretty active. There are two sections - a house music section and a hip-hop section. The house music is what you'll see first most likely while the hip-hop section is down near the restrooms. Funny enough, the hip hop section was busier (and eventually closed off to guys) as the night went on. The decor is quite different and cool. For a first-timer, I was quite surprised - everything has a very dark red hue with lamps and a library feel. The crowd is also very different - you'll get a mix of veterans that frequent the place as well as very drunk (but mostly friendly) clientele - each with their own funny story for why they're down there. The bartenders are also super cool (drinks are normally priced - around $10+ for most drinks). The atmosphere is so different from the other Vegas nightclubs as the night wears on but again, if you're that party animal or just wanting to people watch and see something a bit different, the After Hours club is definitely interesting for any Vegas-goers.

I can't believe it costs $750 for 1 bottle of Ketel One! Good lord that's a lot of money! At least we got in... (http://www.yelp.com/biz/pure-nightclub-las-vegas#hrid:uXIgfKakhap7_4fJPdA-zg)

My friends and I had a lot of energy after getting out of Tryst and decided to dance until the wee hours of the morning at Drai's. When we got there, a line was already wrapping around the small entrance. Many people were more than happy to pay the cover charge ($20 for ladies; $30 for gents). Make sure to find someone who can get you on the list to avoid the cover charge ;)! Once we got in I felt like I was in a high school basement party. I'm not into house so I was trying to find some way to enjoy the music being played. Fortunately, we discovered a closed off hip-hop room on the other side. For guys, they had to get bottle service to be let in (at least that's how it was the night we went) and ladies are let in with no string attached (what a surprise...not). Some of the guys we made friends with were forced to leave since they tried to sneak in...which was kind of a bummer. My first impression of the "hip-hop room"....hmph....let's just say I was in a really bad rap video. Would I come back? My drunk alter ego says yes. My sober, rational self says probably not.

This was the first time I'd visited Drai's AfterHours since it moved from Bill's Casino. The set up was pretty much the same, minus the dark stairwell to enter. It still has that dark, sultry feel to it, which is part of the appeal. The front room is EDM/house music, and the back room was hip hop. I don't even know what time this place closes- my friends said that they stayed till about 8am! At the time we visited, the EDM room was pretty empty, but the hip hop room was definitely full and jumping! The DJ was great and kept everyone dancing. The line was crazy when we arrived at 3, and when I left at 5:00 (I couldn't keep going with my friends), it was even crazier! I had made a promise to myself that I was going to beat the sun home, and even though it was light outside when I pulled into the garage, the sun wasn't out- so I win!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Drai's! I've been coming here for years. You're not a true Vegas party animal unless you can survive 'til 4 am to party at Drai's. Drai's is located in the older Bill's Gambling Hall, so you'd think it was a dingy club based on the outside looks of it. But a walk down those narrow stairs and a turn at the corner and you're at the best afterhours club. I believe Drai's doesn't even open until 2 am and it doesn't even get poppin' until 4am. You're sitting there at 3 in the morning thinking "this place is dead". All of a sudden, it's packed to the ceiling and it's jumpin' off. I have no idea what time the party ends because I've never made it past 6am. There's two rooms. The main room is house-type music. The smaller room to the right is all hip hop. I love this room. Sometimes, I see celebrities and athletes here. The people that work here are so chill. Not stuck up and douchy with the exception of a couple of the doormen. The bartenders and hostesses are all super nice. I've even met the manager and he was very polite and friendly. One thing I noticed is that they pay exceptional attention to the details. They keep your table impecable and your hostess is always available. Even if you only buy one bottle, they treat you like you just dropped 50K. Even if you get a bottle comp'ed, they treat you well. The crowd is usually 20s to 30s and mixed. Most people are dressed up since they just came from another club with a strict dress code but sometimes I see people a little more casual, maybe regulars and locals. It's decorated nicely.XS. Lots of booths everywhere. And you're free to take a seat at them as long as it's not sold to someone already. I suggest going early, by 2am, because it gets super packed at the door and it's hard to get in once it's like that. And there's not a line. It's a giant crowd of people just huddled around the velvet ropes. Another bonus, there's the Victorian Room down the hall from Drai's that serves cafe food 24 hours. So you can walk or stumble on over there once you leave the club.

Short Review: - There is a line so best come with people who work for the industry - Cover Charge I forgot how much but I'm guessing $40? - It's underground and they play your typical house/dance music - All I see is black and red lights I walk out of here mad drunk every time so if you want a real review of this place skip mine and proceed to read below.

Getting woken up at 5am to go to a club is different so i got up quick showered and headed here with 5 other guys. $30 for guys, and $20 for girls..unless you know someone. Anyways theres a big room playing edm and then theres a separate room playing hip-hop (yes!) but we were told we had to pay an extra $20...wtf... thank goodness one of the boys flirted with a cocktail waitress and she got us in easily...i guess we could've waited 20 min because they got rid of the ropes! You see all types of people in vegas! The ones that you know got the money and those that just kick it with that group and fake it till they make it! hahaha It was crazy that you see so many people openly selling eachother drugs and with all the security in the room they do nothing about it. Great experience but sonot my crowd.
