"i still like to refer to this location as the PH Westgate Towers, but this place is one of the new additions since the Hilton changing of the guards that i really enjoyed. \n\ni absolutely must start every morning with coffee. an iced coffee. from Starbucks. call it marketing, call it conditioning, whatever. many times before, whenever i'd come to vegas, i'd always stay at the Westgate Towers (see pending review as to why) and unfortunately i would have to get my morning started with a very below-average iced coffee prepared at one of the side bars near the front desk, close to where this Starbucks location now stands. it was severely over-priced, and was basically just front loaded with a gang of creamer and vanilla syrup.\n\nthe location of this Starbucks is perfect. whether you're staying at the hotel or just cruising through the Miracle Mile shops, this shop is sitting in prime real estate. it's floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides make it look very inviting, and the inside is laid out like a people watcher's dream: you can sip your morning latte or cappuccino while sitting at one of their desks which are adorned with modern (and comfy) chairs or relax on one of their faux-leather armchairs off to the side. that plot of land transitions seamlessly from hotel front desk and lobby area, to hotel bar, to Starbucks. and the automatic sliding window-doors is the outlet onto the Miracle Mile shops.\n\nit's a serene feeling to be able to sit and enjoy your drink inside while looking at the hustle and bustle of shoppers passing through the shops outside, and then to look through the facing ceiling-to-floor windows which look at the Westgate's mini beach club: a sea of poolside beach chairs, large swimming pool, jacuzzis, and bar areas, and canopied day beds.\n\n-civilities."^^ .
