At the center of the world-renowned Las Vegas Strip, Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino commands the limelight with unforgettable dining, amazing entertainment and exceptional shopping worthy of a standing ovation.
A ritzy lobby with black granite floors and textured glass walls has close to 2,000 back-lit LED bulbs decorating the heck-in desk, while eight crystal chandeliers line the escalator, which leads up to the main casino floor.
The interior design of the casino itself provides a bright, airy ambience for the 100,000-square-foot gaming floor, with glowing, colorful neon lights hanging down from the four-story ceiling and LED lights lining the walls. A hip hangout called the Heart Bar provides ample people-watching opportunities with its black leather go-go clad waitresses and central location on the casino floor.
Thanks to a layout with multiple floors, gamblers will never be at a loss for action, with gaming options — including slots, blackjack, craps, poker, a sports book and keno — located on both the main or the mezzanine level, which also features several overlooks of the main floor.
There is valet and self-parking. Self-parking is free. Guests will be charged $13 per day for valet parking.
Guests can enjoy casual dining at Planet Dailies, eat surrounded by vintage burlesque dancers at Strip House or have the Japanese-inspired dishes with California accents at Koi. The Spice Market Buffet serves fare from around the world. Plus, Gordon Ramsay BurGR features an array of traditional and unique burger preparations as well as a bar serving 30 beers all from a stunning frozen tap wall.

Shoppers will be heaven at the Miracle Mile Shops, a massive, circular mall. Access to the Miracle Mile Shops can be found in several locations, including the main casino floor at Planet Hollywood. Inside the mall, shoppers will find more than 140 shops and a dozen restaurants (like Meatball Spot and Ketchup Premium Burger Bar), as well as exciting entertainment like “V– The Ultimate Variety Show” and “Vegas! The Show.” Additional original shows take place in the V Theater and Saxe Theater inside the mall.
The Axis is one of the most state-of-the-art theater venues in Las Vegas and offers performances by some of the best and brightest stars — including pop icon Britney Spears, who is currently starring in her two-year residency show “Britney: Piece of Me.” Global superstar Jennifer Lopez will bring her star power to the resort with a high-energy show that mixes dance, hip-hop, Latin and pop music.
Other shows like “Comedy and Dolls” and “Murray, Celebrity Magician” are showcased at the resort. The topless revue “Crazy Girls” plays in a self-titled showroom with routines that range from contemporary boot-stomping pole dance numbers to bawdy burlesque classics.
It’s only natural that entertainment reigns at Planet Hollywood because the hotel-casino is, after all, situated on the same grounds where the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, Elvis Presley, married his bride, Priscilla.
Hooters Casino Hotel, just east of the Las Vegas Strip, is home to a namesake Hooters restaurant and, of course, the world-famous Hooters Girls in tiny orange hot pants and white tank tops. But it offers so much more.

An off-Strip property, Palace Station serves locals and tourists with great food, comedy acts, affordable rooms and much more.
Originally the “The Casino,” Palace Station paved the way for the rest of the Station Casinos properties. The acclaimed Sunset, Texas, Santa Fe and Boulder Station hotels as well as Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa wouldn’t exist if not for the dazzling success of this establishment. And the driving forces behind Palace Station are constantly refining and building on their good fortune for the benefit of their guests.

MGM Grand truly lives up to its name, not only in sheer size, but also in its vast offerings. Located at one of the busiest intersections in Las Vegas, it provides a world of entertainment, dining and unwinding — both day and night. Recently, the resort completed a $160 million remodel to upgrade all of its rooms and suites, has added a brand new nightclub and several new restaurants.
Entertainment is plentiful with several options in a variety of unique venues. The Cirque du Soleil show “KÀ” takes audiences on a heroic journey that will feel like the latest blockbuster movie. A lineup of renowned performers come to the David Copperfield Theatre, while some of rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest acts, from the Rolling Stones to U2, take the stage in the Grand Garden Arena — also home to many highly touted championship boxing events.

You have multiple dining choices at the MGM Grand that include the exquisite tastes of Joël Robuchon and L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon, the sophisticated tastes of Fiamma Trattoria or the classic pub fare of Michael Mina Pub 1842.

Arguably one of the hippest, most rollicking joints in town, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino houses Vegas’ hottest concert venue and pool complex along with some chic nightspots, restaurants and retail outlets.
It’s all about the music here. From guitar-shaped door handles to a saxophone chandelier, every element of the resort worships at the altar of rock. The coolest collection of music memorabilia is enshrined on its walls and along its hallways. Check out jackets from Aerosmith, the Ramones and U2. There are also motorcycles, drum kits, countless autographed guitars and outrageous costumes worn by Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Elton John, Joan Jett and Billy Idol.
All of this memorabilia just scratches the surface of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino’s devotion to the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll. The entire resort — from the original structure built in 1995 to the all-suite HRH Tower added on in 2010 — has a hedonistic atmosphere reminiscent of a backstage bacchanal. At night, the casino’s Luxe Bar serve as ground zero for the parade of beautiful people. Vanity nightclub is also here, but is only open to public for special events and parties. It sports decadent décor elements including hand-cut crystals, rubbed brass and black chrome.
The resort’s crowning achievement, however, is The Joint. Steely Dan, the Ramones, Sting, Green Day, Ringo Starr, Duran Duran, Ozzy Osbourne, the Rolling Stones and many more smoked the original venue. A larger, state-of-the-art concert facility by the same name has since opened to carry the torch. It seats 4,000 people and offers a sound, lighting and video system that puts all others to shame. A smaller live music venue called Vinyl has also opened its doors. Emanating a speakeasy atmosphere, it has an industrial look and features a variety of bands.
Outside, the pool area, dubbed “Beachlife” and consisting of three separate pools (Nirvana Pool, Breathe Pool and Paradise Beach) is lush beyond belief with sandy beaches, tropical palms, private cabanas and swim-up blackjack, all accommodating the bronzed bodies who have made it the place to see and be seen. During the summer, the best revelry in the city takes place at Rehab. The Hard Rock Hotel originated this ultimate daytime pool party, where guests enjoy something akin to spring break debauchery.
Dining runs the gamut at the resort — from cosmopolitan to classic yet cutting edge. For instance, Nobu serves up modern Japanese cuisine and Fú has a unique fusion of Asian fare, while 35 Steaks + Martinis offers a cutting-edge take on traditional steakhouse cuisine. Culinary Dropout, a trendy gastropub by Sam Fox, provides another fabulous eating experience. Pink Taco cooks up Mexican favorites with a California flair. Plus, Mr. Lucky’s Café is the ultimate 24-hour coffee shop with a modern attitude. You never know who will walk in after a concert, and the off-the-menu special (the $7.77 plate of steak and shrimp) is sure to satisfy any meat-lover’s appetite.
Body-conscious guests will be pleased to discover a fully equipped fitness center, one that is much larger than you’d usually find at a hotel gym. Relaxation is also on the menu at the Reliquary Spa. With treatments like a Russian deep tissue massage, an Asian healing massage, a Turkish ritual and a Fijian body scrub, you’ll feel as if you’ve traveled all around the world.
Truly a Vegas original, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino must be seen — and heard — to be believed. For the young, hip and trendy, this is an ideal place to kick off your Vegas party.

The smaller, more seductive Savile Row is situated next to it. A 2,000-square-foot haven, Savile Row is reminiscent of the street by the same name in London. Flight is the perfect spot for club goers to grab a few drinks before buckling their seatbelts for takeoff. At Liquidity, the casino’s water-themed center bar, guests will appreciate the sleek, high-tech design. Other nightlife options include the hip lobby bar Aurora.
Dining choices range from the around-the-world selections of More the Buffet to the rocking T&T (Tacos & Tequila) that features the innovative cuisine of celebrity chef Richard Sandoval. For a wide selection of breakfast and lunch fare, step into the Pyramid Café and explore its many comfort food options. Tender Steak & Seafood offers the best in surf and turf as well. The stylish American-style pub, Public House, is a popular favorite.
During the summer months, guests can be spotted soaking up the sun at the expansive five-acre pool deck through windows in the walkway that connects the two-story parking garage to the hotel. Located in the pool area, Nurture Spa & Salon lives up to its name, offering a steam bath, whirlpool and sauna, along with an array of facials and body treatments.
On the atrium-level, entertainment abounds. Enjoy the prop comedian Carrot Top and “Fantasy,” a sexy adult show featuring powerhouse vocals from Lorena Peril along with a bevy of gorgeous topless dancers. And the ladies of “Fantasy” aren’t the only bodies drawing crowds at the Luxor. “Bodies…The Exhibition” features 21 whole-body specimens in various poses, preserved using a method known as polymer preservation.
Cirque du Soleil has also brought its own brand of magic to the Luxor in conjunction with “Mindfreak” magician Criss Angel. In “Criss Angel MINDFREAK LIVE!,” you’ll be mesmerized by a surreal world where it’s often difficult to tell what’s real from what’s imaginary.
Indoor walkways make it easy to visit the Luxor’s surrounding hotels, leading south through The Shoppes at Mandalay Place to the Mandalay Bay and north to the Excalibur. A free tram also links the three properties.
Please note all of the hotel rooms are non-smoking. There is a $300 cleaning fee for guests who smoke in any of the rooms.

From Egypt to France to Greece, pyramids have dazzled and amazed onlookers in both ancient and modern times. The Luxor in Las Vegas is no different.
Just six miles from the Strip, Sam’s Town Hotel & Gambling Hall is nestled in the shadow of the Sunrise Mountains in Las Vegas and boasts more than 600 rooms, decorated in a Southwestern theme.
Taking what was a calculated risk for 1979, father and son Sam and Bill Boyd opened Sam’s Town. Their goal was to create an environment where locals would feel comfortable playing. More than three decades in business, Sam’s Town has become an indispensable stop for locals and visitors alike.
Rooms are built around a truly spectacular indoor atrium, Mystic Falls Park, that must be seen to be believed. With a nine-story glass roof and a 25,000-square-foot indoor area filled with trees, waterfalls and footpaths, it is one of Las Vegas’ unique surprises.
The restaurants here are among the town’s most popular. The extensive menu at The Angry Butcher, featuring huge steaks with all the fixin’s is as delicious as they come. T.G.I. Friday’s has an outpost in Sam’s Town, as do several fast food eateries including McDonald’s, Panda Express and Subway.
The free “Sunset Stampede,” a dancing waters and laser show, dazzles crowds nightly. Dozens of other amenities — including a 56-lane bowling center, an 18-screen movie theater, an arcade, Gatsby’s Salon and the Sam’s Town Live entertainment complex — serve only to complement what is still one of the most popular locals’ casinos, with three separate floors of round-the-clock gaming action, a fine race and sports book, a lively bingo hall and a poker room.
Among the hotel amenities are free daily shuttle service to the Strip and downtown, a pool, laundry services and a rental car desk. There are even two RV parks with a total of more than 500 spacious spots.
It may not be on the Strip or in the heart of downtown, but Sam’s Town is still every bit the quintessential Las Vegas experience. Missing this resort is to miss the frontier spirit that built Las Vegas from the dust in the first place.
**Construction on the hotel will commence on May 29 and last until October 1, 2017. Don’t be alarmed if you hear a little more noise than usual. And the Mystic Falls Park will be closed from April 17 – May 17. When you arrive, the front desk will alert you of said construction and will answer any questions you may have.**

The property has been one of the crowning gems of Fremont Street since 1956, when it became the first high-rise hotel in the area. Even after the hotel changed hands — Boyd Gaming bought it in 1985 — the devotion to quality and comfort has never lessened.
