The Aria has to be the best hotel on the Strip. It has the best of both worlds, high end service with out the stuffiness of the Bellagio and trendy young crowd like Planet Hollywood. I've stayed at a handful of different resorts on the Strip and the only place I'll stay from now on is The Aria. The rooms we're real nice and simple. The bed was extremely comfortable and lets not forget the mechanical curtains. The bathroom has a walk in shower and a large bathtub.
One thing I did notice that reminded me of a Ritz-Carlton was how there was always a cleaning crew on the floor.
The casino was awesome, always playing great top 40 tunes. The waitresses around the casino were quick and friendly. I never had an empty drink.
Congrats MGM on your new Aria
