It's been permanently closed down. Not sure why that hasn't been posted yet. Ordered an Uber there…read morefor nothing.

Seriously one of the best clubs I've been to, especially for its size…read more I went on a Monday night and had a great experience in almost every way. (1) The prices are unbelievable (or were in Monday night): no cover charge, 1€ bag check, 6€ for what I think was an entire liter of beer, 3€ shots. Even in Spain that would be a bargain, let alone the middle of Paris. (2) The hours served me really well. I'm always happy to find a club open on weekday evenings. Things were already moving at about 10:00 (very early by European standards). (3) The people were partying! When I arrived there were only about a dozen, but the dancing was very on. Some other clubs seem to wait until the room is packed and the people are drunk, but these people were at it from the beginning. It was almost entirely guys and girls in their early 20s, possibly a couple more guys than girls at the time, but not a huge disparity and possibly a fluke. (4) The music wasn't great but it did the trick. Bunch of over-popular US songs (mostly rock and some hip-hop) mixed with some French numbers. No real DJ work going on but hey, it was party music and it had the people moving. All in all, this is a gem. It's almost certainly a local spot mostly unknown to tourists, which is why it's so subtle, so underpriced, and so concentrated with local energy.

I will do my fellow anglophones a favor and write an English review of the dark and wonderful…read moreplace: I recently spent a week in Paris and, true to what I heard, the goth/industrial scene is VERY underground there. You won't find anything advertised online (the last true goth club shuttered in 2008), and those frenchies aren't too big on facebook either. Nevertheless I managed to sniff out this place hidden in a backstreet over in Le Marais near the Bastille, and boy was it worth it. Some highlights: ----PROS---- - The setting is VERY MUCH like the Vault in SoHo, NYC. Basically, this was place is a former wine cellar complete with interconnected catacombs deep underground and renovated with a sound system and awesome lighting. Doesn't get better. - Incredible decor complete with authentic medieval suits of armor, swords, and coffins, and laser lights. - Great sound despite being built like a bomb shelter. Great EBM DJs on the night I went there. - Safe, clean neighborhood. I had no problem walking all the way home up Magenta Boulevard at 3am. ----CONS---- - Only open Saturday, and is open from 11am - 2am. Not a lot of time to party for a true night owl to enjoy it. - $10 euro cover - Dancing on stone all night = knee surgery a few years down the road. - The arched cave ceilings are very low: if you are a particularly tall person there is very little space for you to dance. - If you are claustrophobic you will probably not enjoy it here. It is deep underground and labyrinthine. - It is probably far from wherever your hotel is, since most tourists don't stay around the Bastille.

The place has character, worth it just for that. Use caution and watch your head or flailing hands…read morewhen enjoying your groove. Drinks were priced for the space, but not terrible. Great times can be had, check it out.
