Is the nightlife good in Prague? Where is good to go?

Nightlife is great, you can choose from normal or fancier bars, classic pubs of several financial categories, clubs with different kinds of music, or cafes where you can drink wine till the night. In Národní třída around Opatovická street there are many cute cafes that I like. Club Karlovy lázně is very popular and it has several floors with different kinds of music, but there is a lot of tourism.
