Cathouse is one of those places that is really a lounge but tries really hard to a club.
The whole idea behind Cathouse is pretty nifty. Its modeled after one of the old-fashioned bordellos with a slight 1920s flappers feel. The place is decorated with black-white photographs of the roaring 20s, along with gogo dancers wearing big feathery head pieces. You have to walk up a flight of stairs to arrive at the club/lounge itself. One of the cool things is the fact they have a huge red chaise placed there obviously for picture taking. Why this vintage-eque places is at the Egyptian themed Luxor is beyond on me.
While the concept is cool, Cathouse kinda of fails on it's execution. The place is pretty small. With only two main rooms with a dance floor the place seems very cramped. The drinks themselves are about what more of the big clubs charge on the strip ($10-$20 range). And the crowd is also a bit older. Thankfully the place rarely has lines, and if you know a promoter or can find passes strewn about the Luxor you will get in for free.
The only issue I have with the place really is its size. Its about a quarter of the size that is should be and the ceilings are only inches above my head. Coupled with the fact that drinks are not cheap at all really makes me only want to go if other people are desperate to be there. Its not really a place I would ever suggest checking out. However, I will say that the decor and idea behind makes up for it. The place is decent, but there are way better places in vegas.
