Mansion was awful!!!! My friends and I tried to get into the club for my bachelorette party in June. We live in NY and were so excited to go to Miami. One of the nightclubs we couldn't wait to go to was Mansion. Talk about disappointing! We waited for over 2 hours in the line! The bouncers were jerks and people who gave them some cash, were allowed into the nightclub! We were actually the next group to enter and these awful bouncers just pretended like we weren't there and completely ignored us. Come on, it was my bachelorette party and this would probably be the last night I would party like this for a very long time. If I gave them some cash, I'm sure they would have let us in. Finally, the idiot bouncers let me in, but not the rest of my friends. What jerks! I couldn't believe it! Then I waited inside (right by the door), about 30 minutes for the rest of my friends whom were never allowed in. I ended up leaving and we went elsewhere and had a great time! We went to Mangos! I LOVE that place!!! I will NEVER go to Mansion again! It was a complete waste of our time!

I was on vacation from NY. I wanted a big dance club with loud banging house music. I walked by on friday and Friday and they were playing mariah carey and justin timberlake. BUT.....they had a famous guest DJ Deadmau5 there on Saturday and even though his set wasn't that great(not their fault) the club was everything I expected and maybe a little more. I had no delusions. I didn't know the bouncer,or roll up with 10 women(I was with my wife) and I'm not a "VIP" so I put up with the requisite self important, rude, condescending attitude of the door staff-They were all undersized so they had to give a little extra. Inside the club was big, but it was clean and not packed shoulder to shoulder like most places. I stayed until 4:30 and never waited more than a couple minutes for drinks and our bartender(the bar we stayed near) was effiecient , professional and not bitchy(and of course hot.) They put on one hell of a show all night with 2 rooms with different music and 2 DJ sets, Pole dancing girls and at one point a caberet show with Brook hogan and the knockouts performing. And yes the drinks are more expensive than your local dive ($12 kettle and cranberry) So read this and please no more postings about how it too big, or drinks are expenive or the bouncers are rude or it's loud BECAUSE YOU KNOW IT WILL BE!

Pros: Great MegaClub, great bartenders, lots of entertainment

Cons: Self Important Door Staff, Not good all nights

I recently went to mansion with three of my girlfriends. We made a table reservation, and definitely came prepared to spend, but mansion is a hustle in every way. We got to one table where there was a 2 bottle minimum; after we sat down they told us it was actually a 3 bottle minimum…hmmm. We didn’t like where we were sitting so we moved to another room where AGAIN they told us we would need to buy 1 more bottle, yet when we sat it changes to 2! I was on vacation and really wanted to have a great night with my friends, I was tempted to leave both times, but I was so excited about having a fun night. When you’re spending $1000 it feels pretty shady to get hustled for $200! I will NEVER go back, and I told all my girlfriends who are Miami residents to do the same. It’s a shame when greed completely overtakes customer service.

Pros: If you're like my friends, you'll have fun no matter how bad the service!

Cons: Poor customer service, and an obvious hustle

Hi, I had an excellent experience in Mansion, we was there in group (18 architects from Mexico) and arrive in a large limousine (18 people inside), our access was VIP so no line to go inside, beautiful hostes and lot of vodka, whisky, ron and a english drink (dont remember the name).... musik a live: with 2 girl singers, 2 shows of a DJ .... and so many cute girls. We expend more than 4 hours and it was really a good time. Cost wasnt a issue for me because we was invited for a US company, so money dont was a problem... hihihi. If you have the opportunity try Mansion Nightclub ... its not cheap but is CHIC! Bellas mujeres, buena musica, lindo espacio, dos salas de baile con musica Hip hop y House, Hermosas meseras, buen ambiente. Besos ;)

I've been checking out this spot for a few years now every time I visit Miami. The scene is just as hot as it was 3 yrs ago. Beautiful crowd, great music. Perfect for everyones taste which is tough to find, especially when your friends like different scene's. Make sure you're ready to party all night. No early bedtime here.

Pros: Music and Special events. Even the bathroom is sick.

Cons: none that i can think of.

I’ve been wanted to go to Mansion for a long time and I finally got to go a couple of weeks ago. My friends and I decided to shell out the extra cash for a table w/bottle service and it was well worth it because the server came to our table about every 15 mins. or so to make sure that we were ok. She wasn’t annoying either, just very friendly and efficient. In fact, we hardly left our table all night! It was so much fun just dancing there and being able to see everybody on the floor. We did go into the other room and I enjoyed the music and it was a different vibe - which was cool because most clubs don’t offer that. I can’t believe I waited so long to go to Mansion. I will be going back soon and more often from now on.

Pros: Service, dancing, crowd

Cons: i can't think of any really

Editor's Review

This oversized club, where Level (among other clubs) once lived, has room to spare and glamour to burn.  See the full editorial review.
