| - we were just in las Vegas for a wedding at Planet Hollywood. I've stayed at many of the hotel/casinos on the strip and Planet Hollywood is not the best but definitely not the worst. The self parking is a long walk from the hotel, so that was kind've pain. The hotel is centrally located on the strip, so it's an easy walk to most destinations in either direction.
I can't really comment on the casino because I don't gamble, but we enjoyed several of the bars in the casino. There is a starbuck's in the casino which is nice, but I'm pretty sure all of the casinos have at least one. There is also a nice little mall connected to the casino with 'normal' stores, not those crazy designer stores that they have in the forum shops.
Check-in and check-out were smooth and easy. Our room was average size, clean and the bed and pillows were quite comfortable. wireless internet was $14/day which is ridiculous, but luckily we had our our personal hotspot. They have a nice spa but again, the prices were ridiculous. Of course, this seems to be typical for Vegas these days.
The wedding we attended here gets the record for fastest wedding ever - less than 10 minutes from start to finish, but it was a very nice ceremony and a nice little chapel (despite the shouts from those watching the NCAA tournament just outside the door)
We didn't get to use the pool since it was too cool, but we did go out and check it out and it was nothing special. For the price though, this wasn't a bad place to stay.
