We booked this room through the Las Vegas Tourist Bureau (Mark was the manager who did the room) as we were able to talk to a real person and request a view room. Unfortunately you have no control over what room you receive and you have a 50% chance of getting a room with a view of a white wall (the Cosmopolitan is building around it VERY close). On the view side you won't see the Bellagio fountains until you are at least above the 3rd floor so you really only have a 30% chance of getting a room with a view of the fountains. We were fortunate to have a room on the 9th floor in the building closest to the strip with a stunning view of the strip, including the Eiffel tower at Paris and the Bellagio fountain shows. If we paid the same price for a room on the opposite side looking at a wall we would have been very disappointed. Our 2 bedroom had a renovated kitchen and bathrooms partially re-done as well as new mattresses. The only furniture that wasn't in good shape was the couch and armchair that was showing it's age and dirty. It was the pull-out bed that has to have been the worst I have ever slept on. Why they kept that and upgraded everything else is beyond me. The carpets were alright but the floor choice for the kitchen and bathrooms was a poor given it's hard to clean nature. After peeking into other rooms during housekeeping it was clear that all units are at different levels of quality since ownership varies throughout the building. Some had hardwood, some tile and other complete carpet. The building is obviously quite old and the pool area is very uninspiring, it must have been built before wheel chair accessibility became code as the tower farthest from the strip requires hallway and a few stairs to get the the other elevator. The Valet parking (mandatory but free) was flawless throughout or stay, I would prefer to self park but parking at the Bellagio or another Hotel was not convenient. The location is excellent and this is a great option if you are staying a while and want a kitchen, if you get the view we had you will thoroughly enjoy your stay. If you want a fancy pool, lobby, shops etc. then look elsewhere, if you are looking for a base station to enjoy the sights of Las Vegas, the Jockey club could be perfect, just get a guarantee of what room you are getting and have it priced accordingly! Rooms ending in 28,30,32,34,00,02,04,06,08 regardless of floor are in the Ascot tower (closest to strip) facing Bellagio (first digit signifying floor number). Rooms ending in 78,80,82,84,50,52,54,56,58 regardless of floor are in Derby tower (farther from strip) facing Bellagio. All other rooms according to the map given to us at check in will face a wall of the Cosmopolitan, construction is well above the Jockey club so the room facing the wall should be very quiet.
Great location for central strip access. Some rooms have an excellent view of the fountains.

Look for a small sign one turn past the Bellagio. The actual building is in behind.Website: www.jockeyclubvegas.com

All in all, not a bad place to stay. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfy; and lets face it, that's really all you need when you stay in Vegas if you're doing Vegas right. (Right?) The location is also good- next to the Bellagio, across from Planet Hollywood and Paris in the center of the Strip. However, if you're looking for THE Vegas experience, probably not the place. Its not your typical hotel on the Strip, there isn't the big casino, no restaurant, and no view unless you get lucky and your room faces the Bellagio. The pool is also small. Its fine as far as hotels go- but not up to the Standards of Las Vegas. If you need a place to sleep that's clean and comfortable on the Strip and don't mind walking to the other resorts for food and fun- then its worth it. If you're looking for the normal Vegas stay, with the lights and the sounds, then probably not your first choice.
