This is a very large hotel which is connected to a convention center where we had our conference. The hotel boasts many good restaurants (one of which I've already reviewed, the BARDOT, which lives up to its hype), and has a modern chic feel to it. The rooms are nice and large with plenty of space. I got a room with a fabulous view of the strip. The service is prompt and polite and they have a nice tablet feature in the room which controls everything. The electronically moveable curtains were a nice touch. One touch of the button and you can see the entire strip and the mountains. Beautiful. \n\nThe room prices are also very reasonable. The food and mini-bar is an entirely different matter though :)."^^ . "4"^^ .
