We enjoyed our stay at the Elara by Hilton. The hotel is nice, the service was friendly, and its location was very convenient.
The room itself was clean, neat, and just the right amount of fancy. The beds were very comfortable as well. The only negative thing that I would say about the room that we had was that it was on the 5th floor looking directly into a parking garage. BUT we did arrive to the hotel WAY before check in (due to a red eye) and the check in staff did tell us that that was the only room ready at the moment. It was worth it to us and because of our red eye exhaustion we really appreciated the ability to check in hours early. There was also a large remote controlled set of blinds that covered up the window for us easily.
We also liked that the Elara didn't have a casino in it. It felt clean, smoke free, and was quiet.
The location is great too. The hotel is right off the strip attached to the Mile Mall. So it was really close to multiple food options, shopping, and within a vey short walking distance to Planet Hollywood Hotel and Paris.
