| - Definitely a nice swanky hotel. With it's modern decor, it's appealing to the younger/hip crowd that wants to do Vegas large. I stayed here for a bachelorette party and shared the room with a couple of girlfriends. It also works for a romantic weekend or if you just want to indulge and spoil yourself, when in Sin City.
The room was pretty large - a terrace studio with two queen beds. Enough to accomodate two queens, a small sofa, armchair, coffee table, desk, huge bathroom, two closets and a kitchenette. In no way, did it feel crowded, even with the entire bachelorette party (about 12 girls) stuffed into our room to take shots before heading out. Lots of shots.
From a bachelorette weekend standpoint, there were three benefits to staying here. The first was having the Marquee located in the hotel. No need for us to hail a taxi to drive out and come back. If there were any walks of shame, it was straight back to the hotel room. The second was the Boulevard Pool. Our second day there, we rented a day bed and scored some lounge chairs, under some palm trees, to recover from the previous night's activities. The last benefit was The Wicked Spoon. Nothing like ending a great party weekend with buffet food. I kid you not. I'm all about the buffet.
Would I stay here voluntarily? Not necessarily. The hotel is pretty expensive. It averaged about $500 a night for our room. If it weren't for a friend who hooked it up because she stays here frequently, it wouldn't be my first choice of hotel. Then, there's the crowd to consider. It's definitely a party hotel and unless you don't plan on sleeping, you can hear crowds of folks going back to their rooms at all hours of the night. It is Vegas. Duh.
