| - Booked Vdara as a last minute at the rate of $109/night, which wasn't so bad. We were able to check in early at noon instead of 3pm and was pleased right when we entered in our hotel room. It was nicely decorated with modern and elegant features. Vdara is eco-friendly and is committed to be non-smoking. It's conveniently located in the heart of the City Center, in the middle of the Las Vegas Strip. Only passage to the Strip is to walk through Bellagio. The staff were very welcoming and friendly during my stay at the Vdara. There are resort fees ($20) applied daily to this hotel in case you're wondering!
The room:
Instead of those "Do not disturb" door signs, Vdara considers it by the click of the button. After clicking the button, the outside doorbell light turns blue which means "do not disturb".
The room includes a sofa that can be pulled out as a queen size sofa bed, but it's expected to not be as comfortable as the actual bed.
The kitchen was on the side right when we enter our room with a sink, mini fridge, mini stove, and many cabinets.
The window is a panoramic view, with 2 layers of blind shades that you can control by the touch of a button!
The bathroom has separate tub and shower, but no ventilation. The bathroom door is a sliding door with a lock of course.
The bed was very comfortable, courtesy of Sealy mattresses. Vdara also provides a list of products they purchase its bedding products that's available for you to place an order if you really like it.
The bad:
I'm sure many Yelpers have mentioned the cons of this hotel already, but Vdara does not have a casino as its commitment of being a non-smoking hotel. To get to the casino or the Strip, you'd have to take a walk through Bellagio (no negatives about Bellagio!).
We've experienced a water shut off around 1-2am during our stay which disappointed us. I understand it's late at night that they wouldn't bug you to notify, but I would like to be warned ahead of time. When I used the water around 1am, I felt like water was scarce since the outflow was limited as if Vegas ran out of water. My boyfriend then uses the bathroom and there were NO outflow at all.
I would stay at this hotel again, and would only recommend it if you don't mind the walk through Bellagio for the casino or the Strip. You do a lot of walking in Vegas anyways, so it wouldn't hurt as much. It's a very nice and clean hotel throughout. Trust me, my sister even inspected its sheets and she has not found any spots.
