Valuable Casino Boy Hotel Insights
Most of the rooms are "suites" but don't get your hopes up for something dazzling. This place was originally going to be a long-term stay hotel, so the rooms are larger and have separate living rooms and bedrooms, but they're not fancy and actually a little cramped. The bedroom barely holds a king bed. The bathrooms are tiny. Furniture is minimal -- there are two TVs in the "suites" -- one in each room. It's like staying in a very large Super 8 room, meaning they are clean, and a notch above an average Motel 6. The rooms are in a series of buildings, none of which is directly attached to the casino, so be prepared to walk. Views are pretty bad in almost every room, so don't hope for a spectacular Strip panorama.
The tower rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable, but the bathrooms are a bit cramped. Actually, these are some nice rooms. They are as nice as almost any downtown, except the bathrooms. And if you want a really cheap room, snag a "vintage" room, they are single queens above the casino, or a Pavilion room which have outdoor entrances and are above the parking garage, but offer more space than Vintages, are fresh and can have two queens. The elegant Vintage suites are perhaps the best deal in town with a giant room with a sofa and sitting area for mere peanuts. The hotel is a few hundred feet outside of the Fremont Street Experience in a safe, quickly gentrifying area. If a regular room at the El Co isn't nice enough for you, you can try the South Beach-flavored Cabana Suites in a separate building across the street. They have way more style than substance, but nice bathrooms and iPod docks. They are intended for a younger, hipper audience. And they better be hip, because if they aren't, the lime green, black and white color theme is just plain ugly. Like it's trying too hard.
The rooms are small, but fresh, modern and clean. The walls are white, with white linens, dark carpet and turquoise accents. Furniture feels like IKEA. Lighting is new. There is an iPod dock between the beds in double-queen rooms. You can also get a king room. The bathrooms are very small, but fully functional and neatly laid out. Gold Spike owns the building next door and, calling these additional 50 rooms "The Oasis". They are basically the same, and surround the pool. The overall feel of the Spike is fresh and pleasant and it'll prove to be a good deal for the traveler willing to walk one block to Fremont Street. On the top floor are suites. These aren't fancy--and the bathrooms are small and standard--but they're bigger, include fridges and are themed: one with a pool table, another with a stripper pole.
Fair to poor rooms with few amenities and newer carpet (but newer nothing else). The rooms in the north tower are bigger and slightly nicer, but are still pretty basic and considerably worn down. The beds are beat to the point of sadness. The south tower rooms are okay but often more threadbare and have some seriously outdated furniture. In either tower, the king bed rooms have a sitting area with a sofa. There is a vanity desk in the room and the bathrooms are fair-sized. The two-bed rooms have two queens. The Club charges more per night for the "Deluxe" rooms and for North Tower, but nothing here is either deluxe or worth paying much extra for. If your main concern is just a place to rest your head and you don't mind the occasional clogged drain or wheezing AC, welcome to the (Las) Vegas Club.
The Plaza recently completed a much-need renovation on over 1,000 hotel rooms. The reviews have been mixed, but they're certainly an improvement on the old, dingy rooms of yesteryear. Because of the funny shape of the main tower, some rooms are huge, others not so much. The bathrooms are still smaller than average, so if stretching out in the john is high on your list of requirements, steer clear. Expect to pay an extra $9 if you want a room with view.

Blue Chip Vegas is a booking service that works exclusively with the Signature at MGM Grand to get you the cheapest rates on their luxury hotel suites. The Signature at MGM is an all-suites hotel, so you can expect tons of space, including a kitchenette in every room, making it perfect for cheapos that like to cook their own meals even while on vacation. (We know you're out there!) Flat-screen TV and iHomes are available for your entertainment pleasure in all suites. Junior Suites can be found on floors 2-38, measure over 500-square ft. and are the cheapest option when you book through Blue Chip Vegas. However, we recommend upgrading to a balcony (about $20-$50 more)for sweet views and a little fresh air during your stay. One and two-bedroom options are available, and both types of rooms include a comfortable modern decor and ample windows with Downtown Las Vegas views. Finally, relaxing jetted tubs in the deluxe suites give you the Jacuzzi experience from the convenience of your hotel room. Overall, Signature MGM rooms from Blue Chip Vegas are on the high-end when it comes to Las Vegas luxury.
Simply put, Hotel32 Monte Carlo hotel rooms are ballin. Every room has a scenic rooftop view of the Strip, huge plasma HDTVs and an iHome for your pod or phone. The beds are clean and comfy, and include Egyptian threads so you can sleep - or pass out - like a baby. Studios, suites lofts and penthouse suites are available.
These are far and away the nicest rooms downtown. The Rush tower is the newest and has oversized rooms with slightly swankier amenities like big ol' flat screens and nicer beds. And of course, you pay for it. Other rooms are average-sized and first-class, with lots of marble, beautiful carpets, nice bedspreads and elegant accoutrements like flat-screened TVs and robes. They also have irons and hairdryers. Good thing, because when they only have an iron, you know how we dry our hair. More than most properties, this one actually achieves understated classiness. The views are okay, but mostly look over North Las Vegas, the mountains, or the faraway Strip. The Gold Tower is the nicer one, with better furnishings and slightly bigger rooms. Of course, they try to get you to pay more for it. The North leads directly into the casino. The Carson Street Tower is plenty nice, but a longer walk from the casino and the rooms are smaller. It is right across the street from the parking garage, though. If you want to roll large, get a Gold Club room in the North Tower. They are larger, have even nicer amenities, like big sectional sofas, and special services like VIP check-in and turn-down at night.

Simply put, Hotel32 Monte Carlo hotel rooms are ballin. Every room has a scenic rooftop view of the Strip, huge plasma HDTVs and an iHome for your pod or phone. The beds are clean and comfy, and include Egyptian threads so you can sleep - or pass out - like a baby. Studios, suites lofts and penthouse suites are available.
Rooms at the Octavius Tower are brand new - and it shows. Rooms are BIG - the smallest start at 550-square ft. - and are decked out with a comfortable modern decor. Each room has a flat-screen TV with HD channels, as well as king beds with pillow-top mattresses and designer linens. (Fancy!) Kick back on their plush velvet sofas in their comfortable living areas, and enjoy a drink in their relaxing whirlpool tubs. Choose between deluxe rooms, suites and villas at the Octavius Las Vegas. No matter what room you end up, just know that these rooms are the essence of new-age Las Vegas luxury.
Blue Chip Vegas is a booking service that works exclusively with the Signature at MGM Grand to get you the cheapest rates on their luxury hotel suites. The Signature at MGM is an all-suites hotel, so you can expect tons of space, including a kitchenette in every room, making it perfect for cheapos that like to cook their own meals even while on vacation.

Finally, relaxing jetted tubs in the deluxe suites give you the Jacuzzi experience from the convenience of your hotel room. Overall, Signature MGM rooms from Blue Chip Vegas are on the high-end when it comes to Las Vegas luxury.
At 520 square feet, these rooms are more than half-again the size of an average hotel room. The rooms are done in neutral browns and whites. The bedding and furniture are as plush and deluxe as you'd expect from a luxury joint. The differentiating thing here is, besides the bathrobes, the fancy technology. For this reason, some say this the best hotel in Las Vegas. Big flat screens, one-touch control of lighting, room temp, TV, drapes, room service and other stuff. If you can figure it all out, you can synchronize the room temp, volume and lighting to gradually wake you up. Bathrooms are all granite with separate showers and tubs. But, you sort of expect that nowadays, don't you? Want a view? You can pay extra for a "City View" room. Want a bigger room? Upgrade to a 920 s.f. or bigger suite.
Rooms are spacious at about 510 s.f., and the suites are even bigger and nicer. Tasteful furnishings, marble floors in the john, electric drapes, and all kinds of stuff to gawk at. The bathrooms have showers separate from the tubs, so you can sit in the tub and watch someone shower like rich people love to do. If you join the slot club and put in your hours, they might send you some discounted room offers for slow times of year. Oh, we should not forget to mention the overpriced host fridge and three phones in every room, the robes, irons, flat-screen TVs, ginormous armoires and safes.
Ooweee! We have the finest pool in Vegas. They generate waves on the sand beach pool that are big enough to surf. And there are waterfalls and other tropical delights, all shrouded by hundreds of palm trees and overhead misters. There is a large VIP section with a three-story tower adjoining the pool. And ladies and gentlemen, if you like seeing beautiful people in skimpy outfits, this is Xanadu and Shangri La rolled into one. Only one pool stays open in the winter. There is a topless sunbathing area on top of the tower where the ladies can let it all hang out and the guys can pretend not to stare. It is secluded and costs extra (a lot extra for guys), though, so we'll just keep working on our X-ray vision.
You'll have access to the MGM Pool with Blue Chip Vegas at the Signature, which is one of the coolest pools in Vegas. Check out the Lazy River, and be sure to stop by the adults-only Wet Republic if you're visiting during the Summer.
Top notch. A great place for picking up chicks or guys, which is what this place is all about. It looks like it came right out of MTV Spring Break. There are sand beaches along a meandering stream-like pool, and plenty of places to ogle the opposite sex. There is a bar area with swim-up blackjack. Just bring lots of sunblock in case you get on a roll with the opposite sex. We have body-image issues, so we'll be the guys in the T-shirts down to our knees.
Five pools with three whirlpools, and no kiddies around to splash you in the face. It's heaven for a lot of people. Some of the pools have fountains squirting out of them, for visual excitement. The very chi-chi can rent an overpriced poolside cabana and wile away the days in comfort and style. One note, don't mix up the big old fountain out front for the pool. Security doesn't think it's cute at all. The pools are heated and open year-round.
One of the nicer pool areas in town, although meant more for hanging out than swimming. The main pool is a long pool with nice tile and a bridge overhead. It opens into a large, oval shaped pool. The cabanas are really expensive to rent, and have flat screen TVs. If Wynn is all it's cracked up to be, there should be plenty to see right by the pool, and you won't need to watch Jerry Springer while there. "European" bathing is available for woman who like to tan their European mammaries.
