| - So I've never stayed at Ceaser's Palace. Never stayed at the Wynn. I've never stayed at the Bellagio. I don't know what a 5 star LV hotel experience is really suppose to look like... But I was extremely satisfied with my stay at Planet Hollywood and definitely, DEFINITELY plan on staying here from now on when i visit Las Vegas.
When I arrived i didn't have to wait in a huge line for check in, my wait time was about 10 minutes. HOWEVER, I did see the line get long- and I'm sure some people had to wait at least an hour to get checked in... I'm assuming.
During my stay i was lucky enough to get the 'Matt Damon' room(sarcasm) since he's such a stud(sarcasm). I was on the 20th floor and was facing the strip and the Bellagio Fountains. I believe i paid $69 a night- and the room comes with a free bottle of alcohol each night(sweet deal).
The casino floor is a nice size filled with slots- with only a handful of table games. Most of it is Pai Gow something or other... only a few straight BlackJacks. The only table game I played at PH was Roulette. The dealers are all smoking hot.
The Buffet here is so-so. I only had breakfast here, and wasn't super impressed... HOWEVER, if you use your coupon from your VIP book you save $5 i think... so it's a deal!
The Pros:
- The VIP book they give you has tons of great money savers for their in house businesses, including a $25 Match Play for any table game(which i used on roulette and won! They paid me $50 on my $25 1 to 1 bet!)
-The location of PH is perfect. You are smack in the middle of the strip- never more than 1-2 hotels away from checking so many more things out.
-The whole vibe of this hotel is fun. From the sexy casino floor girls with their boobs hanging out, to the modern decor of your hotel room filled with flat screen TVs and Hollywood memoriabila... this place is just about having a good time.
Minor Nuisances:
-The Ice Machine on my floor was broken, so every time I wanted to get my ice for my alcohol I had to go to another floor.
-The shower clogs up quickly. You'll quickly find that you're standing in a pool after about 5 minutes.
-The internet is NOT FREE, it's somewhere in the $13-$15 a day range... Internet should be free at any hotel nowadays.
-There was no fridge in my room
-After a long night of being up in Vegas, drinking and having fun, the room service decided to knock on my door at about 9:30 A.M. in the morning while i was asleep and woke me up.
-On the last night that I stayed here, valet parking was full. I had to park in the self parking and walk the "Miracle Mile" to get to my room... The next morning when i left, i had to drag my luggage a freaking miracle mile.
While it may sound like the Cons outweigh the Pros- they were all really just minor nuisances and didn't affect my stay too bad(except the last one) I'm just reporting all the things that happened during my stay that you should know about when making YOUR decision. Besides, I'm telling you, I had a BLAST staying at Planet Hollywood.
