| - I have stayed at several nice hotels in Las Vegas and have to place ARIA as my new favorite lux resort (1st visit). We stayed during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend and got the added bonus of checking in at the Tower Suite Lounge. We were able to avoid the very busy check in line at the main lobby. Nice!
**The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly.
**The Tower Suite Lounge is located directly across from the main registration desk or main lobby. Not to be confused with the Sky Suite Lounge. You enter through two large double doors. The lounge is comfortable with complimentary coffee, espresso machine, tea, sodas, juices, bottled water, and snacks. The sodas, bottled water, and juices are stored in the refrigerated compartments just below the espresso machine and coffee urns. Cool!
**The hotel is beautifully decorated.
**Our room with city view is spacious, lux and beautiful. Cool!
**Lights, climate control- A/C, entertainment units, and drapes are all tablet driven. All info re: hotel amenities; restaurants; and things to do are all available on the tablet. Cool!
**Large bathroom with shower/roman tub combo. Cool!
**Great meals at Pizza Five50, the Café, and Julian Serrano. Hosts, food servers, drinks servers, and bartenders all super-pleasant at these establishments. Cool!
**Lots of eateries.
** Awesome snacks, service and drinks at the beautifully decorated Lobby Bar (great spot to unwind, catch your breath, part yourself from the Vegas excitement, quietly watch people buzz through the large lobby, and have a refreshing cocktail, cold beer, or glass of wine). Cool!
**You can watch your favorite ponies (various race tracks) at the Sports Bar- Real fun! Cool!
**Room rates are very reasonable for lux value. Cool!
**Access to towers are secure with a guard stationed at the elevator entrances. Cool!
**Plenty of self-parking, but can be cumbersome when exiting the garage. Take a cab, UBER, or better yet, ask local Vegas relative or friend to shuttle you around. Make sure to reciprocate and buy them a nice meal and/or drinks.
If you don't mind the Las Vegas Blvd. strip traffic, and want to stay at a lux hotel that won't break your wallet, ARIA is a great lux escape.
**Resist and stay away from the room mini bar selection. The price for convenience can be jaw-numbing/eye-popping. Not Cool! Upgrade to the Tower Suite and enjoy access to the lounge for the complimentary drinks and snacks as you wish!
Also, needless to say at this lux property, the eateries are not for the budget minded. Try the restaurants and splurge on quality dining. Worth it!
This is my new fav lux hotel whenever I'm in Las Vegas.
