The Royale Treatment
Your First Look Inside Royale Boston

Ah, spring.

A time of rebirth, renewal, rejuvenation.

So if there were ever a time to take a legendary downtown nightclub, housed in a space dating back to the turn of the 20th century, and give it a stunning makeover—we think you'd agree now would be the time.

Introducing Royale Boston, the new incarnation of the former Roxy, exploding back on the scene this Saturday with a few Playmate-related twists...

When you touch your dress shoes down in this new leathery and luscious fun house, you'll notice the space has undergone some cosmetic surgery: a few walls knocked down here, some sexy new black-and-gold lounges there, and a performance stage that sets up the Royale as a live concert venue rivaling the Paradise and the House of Blues (on other nights, the stage will be a ladies-only dancing platform, which offers its own rewards...).

You'll also want to consider the Royale for your next big debaucherous night with friends—they've got access to a full kitchen for catering, and they're prepared to deploy an attractive hostess to whatever lounge or skybox you find yourself in.

They've even brought in an events guru from South Beach with a host of Playboy events up his sleeve, starting with the grand opening this Saturday, where you'll be able to hobnob with actual Playmates, one of whom used to date Hugh himself.

Then again, maybe that doesn't narrow it down much...
