Hotels Near Las Vegas Oddities in Las Vegas

Typical high rise Hilton property which needs an updating. Stayed just one night to be off the strip as a pass through Vegas on our way to the Utah parks. Tried to find a decent Hilton property easy to get in and out of, which this property fits the bill. The problem is it’s in a poor location, in a semi rough area and has nothing good about it other than it’s a place for a quick stay. Another issue is we are Diamond Hilton members, and when we asked if there was a room upgrade, we were told by the desk person “we don’t have anything and if there was something, you’d have to pay a higher fee”. That was the most ridiculous answer I’ve heard since we know the hotel was lucky to be half full on a Thursday night. Can’t believe they would tell a loyal Hilton member such nonsense. May have to start being more loyal to Marriott properties after that experience. I would not recommend this Hilton property.

The room is very cosy and comfortable. A very nice hotel to stay just that it's a bit further down on the *****. There is a bus stop directly in front of the hotel. The hotel has a very nice pool and the staff are friendly too.

I actually stayed here in June of 2018 but there was no options for 2018, only went to 2021. My husband was in a horrific car accident while working in Las Vegas and was in the ICU at the hospital. I stayed here alone for two weeks until he was able to leave the hospital and we drove home. The room I had was recently remodeled and the bathroom was huge with a beautiful glass shower and a long counter space with a large mirror. I loved the bathroom. The bed was high up, super big and so comfortable. The bedding was luxurious and the comforter was top notch, very poofy and soft. The room and bathroom were spotless. There was a housekeeper there, an asian lady, and she was so sweet to me. I had told her what happened with my husband and why I was staying there. She asked how he was doing every day that I saw her and she was very caring. They have a Starbucks and a restaurant that I got dinner from every night and took up to my room. Even though I stayed there alone, I felt safe being there. There was a worker in front of the elevators that you had to show your hotel key and i.d. to before they let you get on the elevators to go up to the rooms and I was glad they were doing that. There was also a bakery there that had alot of yummy desserts to choose from. All of the workers were so polite and professional. I would definitely stay again. It was my first time staying at the Palace.

The accommodations were what I expected; good enough. We booked there primarily for proximity to the sphere. We traveled to Las Vegas specifically and exclusively to go to a show at the sphere. No complaints.

We just had a fab week at this hotel. Location is perfect , 2 mins walk from the Linq promenade with its myriad of shops bars and restaurants and a couple of mins walk to the Flamingo Hotel which brought you out straight onto the centre of the *****! We had a one bedroom suite which comprised of a spotlessly clean open plan kitchen and living area and a large bedroom with adjoining large dressing/bathroom area with 2 separate sinks/vanity areas with good quality hairdryer (ladies I know these things are important to know) and light up mirrors. Every amenity was provided including an iron and ironing board separate washer and dryer complete with detergent that was replenished after use, ample dishes/glassware and a large fridge freezer which was perfect for keeping drinks cold and storing ice from the ice machine down the hall. We attended 2 concerts in the Sphere and Dolby live and this property was perfectly located for both. 10 mins easy walk to the sphere and 3 stops on the monorail (located at the flamingo) for Dolby live . We were a little nervous before arrival after reading reviews about noise from the adjacent Go pool at the flamingo 🦩, but were delighted to find it had already closed for the season so the room was extremely peaceful and we experienced no noise at all from other guests. It is also entirely non smoking and has a beautiful garden/pool area which is ideal for relaxing in away from the hustle and bustle of the main *****. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to be close to the centre of the action but needing a peaceful retreat to return to at the end of the day. As a final added bonus resort fees are only 25 dollars a day compared to almost twice that quoted by some other properties and includes complementary bottles of water each day. We won’t be staying anywhere else when we return to Vegas!

Awesome pool amenities, great location, hotel is showing signs of ageing but clean regardless. Happy with our stay.

As normal, my reviews are usually based on how a particular hotel or restaurant rates in its class, and against similar competition. In other words, a Hampton Inn isn’t to be compared to say, a Four Seasons. And on that note; Gold Coast Hotel and ****** is not to be compared to The Palazzo, Wynn or The Bellagio, all of which are located on the strip. Located just a mile west of the strip, on W Flamingo, the location is actually better than expected. One can be on the strip in a 15-20 min walk. So, though not on the strip, it’s not as bad as some of the other comparable hotel ******s. We were in town to do a show, and needed ample parking for our trucks. So staying on the strip was out either way: That leaves a few select hotels that could accommodate us; and many of these are in rather sketchy areas. GC has a huge parking area in the rear, with easy access and multiple entries. Overall, it’s probably not as large as The Orleans, but certainly a better location in my opinion. And it’s absolutely light yrs better and much safer than the “Wild Wild West Days Inn” on Tropicana(in which I’ll say in bold text, STAY AWAY!”) The GC exterior seems the same as the day it was built: in other words, old and worn…lol. However, enter inside, and you’ll notice a much improved interior to its humble beginning. The decor still leans classic, but with a touch of modern: And overall actually, quite nice. There’s plenty of gaming, and several restaurants, including a TGIF, which I did not try, and a really good Chinese joint, which I did. The lunch menu was reasonable, and the quality was actually pretty good, if you want Chinese: And they’re open till 3am. Amenities here include a swimming pool(small), and a bowling alley. Neither of which I had time to use… Sorry Rooms: The rooms here have been updated with a fresh remodel at some point recently. A new Flatscreen tv, and a modern wardrobe add to the details. Note: I was one floor from the top, which can be tricky for battling the Vegas heat, for many hotel A/C systems. However, the unit in my room was more than adequate at keeping things chilled down(That one surprised me). The bathroom has all new tile, and a small window for some ventilation(nice touch). Water pressure was really good, but temperature wasn’t easy to adjust at first; but no deal breaker. Overall, the room was clean, modern enough, and the beds was decent for this price range. The service here was surprisingly good(I’ve read this before, and in many places, from those who have stayed at many of the Boyd properties). Everyone was extra friendly, and made the extra effort to make one feel welcomed. So, while not a Four Seasons, you’ll have no worries. Wrapping it up: Overall, this is a good choice for the money; and certainly has ample parking for big rigs, motor homes or other. The proximity to the Vegas strip is adequate, and uber and Lyft pick up right at the front door…. Believe me, that isn’t the case for m

No kettle or coffee machine at room. If you need hot water, need to to Starbucks or cafe to buy or ask for it freely if you are lucky. Very troubling. Need to call house keeping for Room clean up , staff may not automatically clean up your room if you not call them.

The older part of the ****** (the Pyramid) my room was a bit tired and dated. Also stayed in the newer part outside of the Pyramid and room was much nicer and fresher. Some staff were amazing and some were terrible but I guess that’s hospitality for you. Would I stay again? Maybe, maybe not but probably based on location more than anything else. Would aim for mid ***** next time.

My leisure,libation,fun,enjoyment and pleasure all in one place. The exotic cuisine is authentic that’s why I find it to be perfect and excellent. The service is attentive and personal at it’s best. Keep me in mind everytime you want to make a deal in your promotions and marketing. I can use a break such as freebies, discounts, comps., free play, that are worth coming back for as incentive to get me in the house to patronize your business. Make it competitive for there are others that want my business as well but not attractive enough of a proposal for me to splurge and spend my social security and pension in wholeheartedly without regret and restraint. The most important thing is that I paint the town red, go gallivanting, find pleasure and enjoyment in everything I do and not be dissapointed and discouraged or disgusted and annoyed/irritated. Make me happy, is that so much to ask ? As I know for certain that the House always wins.
