| - Pleasantly surprised with my stay at Elara! This used to be the PH Westgate Towers, but has been taken over by the Hilton family.
This review is coming from a non-smoker. I love the fact that Elara is a non-smoking facility. Ahh, feels like I'm home in Cali. I can breathe when I go home for the night! Elara actually smells so fresh and floral when you walk in the lobby. Most girls will appreciate this. They do check for room keys in front of the elevators.
The room was clean and spacious. We had a one bedroom suite. The living room had a pull out sofa. And the best part: the bathroom mirror and counter space. Having 3-5 girls getting ready at one time can really pose a difficult time in other hotels (the struggle is real), but the counter space is wide with a double sink and deep for plenty of room for makeup bags, hot curling irons, lashes, etc. Also the lighting is perfection. May I suggest taking a bathroom selfie before heading out for the night.
Our room also had a kitchenette with a mini fridge (useful for storing leftover Earl's and water for rehydration), coffee maker, and a microwave. The bridal party we were with stayed in a 2 bedroom suite and it had a full kitchen and even washer/dryer. I would definitely come stay here with a larger group and take advantage of those amenities.
We hung out poolside after checking out, but didn't get into the pool. Looked clean and not too crowded.
Location: Connected to Miracle Mile which means access to shopping and food. There's a Starbucks in the lobby.
I did not have a car and so did not deal with parking/valet. However, I've stayed in PH before and they share the same parking lot and I haven't had any issues previously. Except that the parking garage is not directly connected to the hotel so you will have to walk through part of Miracle Mile with your luggage.
I would stay again and recommend it to others. The price tag is fair. Not the cheapest you will find on the strip, but still fair. See you again soon, Vegas!
