I've been coming to Vegas for the past 16 years, so I'm very familiar with most of the hotels here, especially the ones that have been around for a while. I last stayed at Paris in 2001 with family, and I decided to stay here this time on a business trip.
I had one of the Red Rooms, which were very posh, and I liked the decor. I'm more of a bath person then a shower person, too, so I really enjoyed that it had a separate bath in the bathroom. My view was of Planet Hollywood and the Cosmopolitan; when I checked in and I asked if they had any Bellagio view rooms left, the only Red Room option available was on a smoking floor, so I declined it.
Checkout today went smoothly also, the line was long so I did self-checkout which only took a few minutes.
Here's what lowered this rating to 3 stars instead of 4:
-I checked in on a Monday night around 8:30 PM. Whenever I've stayed at Bally's next door, I'm always greeted heartily and welcomed to the hotel. The front desk attendant was not rude by any means, but she basically just gave me my key and sent me on my way.
-The room was very nice but is definitely showing signs of its age, a few things were peeling here and there although really not anything super noticeable.
-and the main thing: I found a huge hairball by the door last night and the hairs in it were black and gray. I have brown hair so it definitely was not mine. (Gross!)
That being said, I would still stay here again, if I could get a good deal like I did this time. Make sure to check the Total Rewards deals online too, I only paid $100 per night this time because of that.
