the good ole IP

the casino is really fun, and the room was comfortable. i liked being able to actually go out onto the balcony. But the escalators are always broken! When youve been drinking all day and night, the stairs are not your friends haha

Worst hotel health hazzard see pictures

The first night I stayed in this hotel I took a shower and the water backed up in the tub, and it felt like something stung my foot. I thought nothing of it. 5 days later I could not walk. I called and had management to look at my feet, and filled out an incident report the next day I arrived at home and went to the hospital. The doctor told me to stay off my feet and gave me cream for a chemical burn. I have been to the hospital 3 times & I have seen five doctors and am now see a skin specialists. This happened on march 7 2009 and it is may 9. I have spent over $300.00 on perscriptions and still am having difficulty walking some days. I am praying that my feet will heal soon, but at present they have not healed yet. Thank god I'm not a diabetic or I could be in big trouble. I am 58 and not normally a complainer. The hotel adjuster told me the hotel is not responsible for the damage to my feet. I would strongly recommend that people do not stay at this hotel. I have stayed there years ago under previous management and enjoyed my stay, but I am not impressed with present management. please look at pictures of my feet. This could happen to you.

Unique Quality: please see pictures

DO NOT stay here

This is probably the worst hotel on the strip. Yes, the location is good, but that is the ONLY good thing about this hotel. It is dirty, and the opposite of classy. We booked it because it was cheaper than other strip hotels but on the hind sight we should have done more research before booking. The customer service is horrible. The front desk supervisor/ manager is outright rude. If you need to cancel your reservation, they will not refund right away, i.e. you will have to keep calling and asking for your refund. At least that was my experience. And for that, I would never stay there again. I would rather pay a little bit more and get a better service. AND we paid extra for the internet access, which was OK but for the fact that it did not work when we wanted to use it!!!!!!!

Unique Quality: There is nothing outstanding about this hotel.

Las Vegas's comphy Hotel

My stay at the Imperial Palace In Las Vegas was short we only stayed 1 day & 2 nights (as i was on a bus Trip) I found the place very comfortable and clean though its an old building it was well kept.
the staff were very helpful I would recomend it to anyone and i am going to book another stay there next sept/oct 2011.

Unique Quality: The Imperial Palace is a very central hotel it is in the middle of the strip and it is fairly cheap but its not tacky.
It has a wonderful atmosphere.

Comfortable Budget Hotel

We got a great rate on a double room ($33 USD/night) so decided to give it a try. I have read some unfavourable reviews of the IP, but I honestly couldn't find anything wrong with the place.

This is a basic "Holiday Inn" type of hotel room. Our room was clean, the beds were fairly new and very comfortable, the room service was pricey, but very fast and friendly. My one minor complaint might be that our room overlooked the pool, and it got a little noisy during the day when the pool was open. But we weren't there for long during the day so it certainly wasn't an issue for us.

Speaking of the pool, it's pretty basic, by Vegas standards. It is a plain rectangular pool with a hot tub, surrounded by lots of lounge chairs and little to no shade in the afternoon. But patrons of the IP are free to use the pools at the adjacent Flamingo and Harrah's Hotels, so why worry?

Our room also had a mini fridge, iron & board, cable tv, and a small table with 2 chairs.

I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Unique Quality: The Auto Collection is located at the Imperial Palace, and we were given coupons for free admission. Unfortunately, we ran out of time and never made it there!

The Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino

This hotel has just sprouted, a few years ago. Definitely, a great addition to the Las Vegas Strip!

Each time we go to Las Vegas, we ended up going to big hotels like Mandalay Bay, Luxor, MGM, Caesar's Palace and the other popular ones at the middle of the Strip like Circus Circus, Excalibur, Alladin, Mirage, etc. but we have never been to the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino.

The motiff of the hotel is Japanese and it looks like the Toji Temple in Kyoto, Japan (Please check my Kyoto pages and click on my Toji Temple pages. Just click on this link.). The hotel looks like it is built in a huge Shoji and it is very unique in a way. The hotel stands between huge buildings which looks awkward but beautiful to look at especially at night when the building illuminates at night!

Underwhelming at Best...

I can't complain too much, since 3 of my 4 nights here were comped from points on my Total Rewards card. When I checked in, the only non-smoking rooms were on the "Strip side". I could hear the boom-boom-boom of the club downstairs all night. The rooms were very dated, and had peeling wallpaper and cracked tile in the bathroom.

Again, I was in Vegas for a family emergency, and my rooms were comped; however, if I had payed $80 per night for my vacation, I would have been totally upset.

Unique Quality: The hotel is in an EXCELLENT location on the Strip - next door to Harrah's, across the street from the Mirage and Caesar's Palace - and price-wise, one of the best deals. If you aren't planning to stay in your room, but just need a place to crash and store your stuff while you play, then this is a good place.

Location and budget!

Room rates quoted in this tip below are rack rates during my stay in October 2008.

Looking to stay on The Strip but within a budget? Then start your search at the Imperial Palace!

This hotel is located centre Strip, opposite Caesars Palace and Mirage and next door to Flamingo - right in the midst of all the action.

Total Rewards members may well find that week nights are comp'ed at this hotel. This was my third visit to Vegas and I took out my Total Rewards membership at the start of my first visit. (Total Rewards is the Harrahs loyalty scheme for gamblers and any gambling undertaken at Harrahs, Imperial Palace, Rio, Bally's, Paris, Flamingo, Caesars Palace and O'Shea's Casino will be included in your rating - conditional on presenting card at table or inserting card into slot on slot machine.) I stayed for 4 nights and was comp'ed for the three weekday nights by booking the room through the Harrahs website (www.harrahs.com) with my Total Rewards membership.

I stayed in a Deluxe Roman Luv Tub room (mini suite) with a King bed [2 Queens available as standard] which also had a sitting area, dressing table, TV, WC with wash hand basin and Roman Luv Tub bath directly accessed from the room in a raised curtained area. There was also a small balcony but without any chairs.

The hotel has many usual Vegas facilities - a selection of restaurants catering to most tastes, pool, spa, tour and show desk.

I go to Vegas to scratch my gambling itch so I'm looking for a clean and comfortable bed with a clean bathroom and I'm not particularly bothered about a view - this ticks all the boxes and MORE besides!

Unique Quality: The Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino does not have direct access through its main entrance directly onto The Strip. The hotel leaves this honour to its Rockhouse bar and nightclub. The Strip's access is via a short walkway or driveway from the front doors.

the imperial palace is one of the least attractive hotel casinos on the vegas strip, however it has an excellent location. if you are looking for a hotel in the heart of the vegas strip and want to save money you may want to consider the imperial palace.

hi to one and all

has anyone stayed in the imperial palace would like to know what it is like this is our first time to vegas. thanks

Re: imperial palace

by RachelH

It is an older hotel. Many don't like it because of this fact, but others who like the "old Vegas" don't mind the lack of super-clean, new materials. I find it a bit dark, and the pool is very basic. HOWEVER, the location is fantastic!

Re: imperial palace

by ltt

above poster said it all. when confirming your reservation or when checking in, ask them for the most recently renovated room (if there is one). don't expect much and you won't be disappointed.

I stayed there in 2003 on my first every trip to Vegas and this is what i writ in my report on my pages.>>>

IMPERIAL PALACE HOTEL by JOHNNY_ENGLISH


Accommodation Name:
Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino

I Stayed At The Imperial Palace Hotel For 3 Days In 2003 And It Was Exactly As I Expected.

A Cheap Slightly Run Down Hotel With A Great Center Strip Location Right In The Heart Of The Strip.

My Room Was Basic Of Average Size With A Decent Sized Bed.

The Bathroom Was Showing Signs Of Wear And Tear But Good Enough For My Needs.

The Hotel Lifts Were Quite Slow And Always Busy But The Casino Was Easy To Navigate And The Staff I Encountered Were Generally Helpful And Polite.

The Buffet Is One Of The Cheaper Ones At About 9 Dollars With Tax And Compares Ok With Others I Have Had And For Just $5 You Can Have Steak And Eggs Between 12am And 4am At The "Teahouse" Which I Did Seeing As I Got In Well After Midnight.

The Hotel Does Have A Very Good Show Called "Legends In Concert" Which I Thoroughly Enjoyed And Would Recommend To Everyone.

If You Are Looking For A Cheap Hotel Basically For Somewhere To Sleep And With A Great Location Then This Is Just Fine.

If You Want Something Classier Then Look Elsewhere.
