Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino

Las Vegas Hotel

Las Vegas

Absoulutely love Vegas!! Exspecially for New Years, I have been there at New Years 5 times in a row. If you can not make it to times square then Vegas is where you should be! Talk about nightlife and clubs this place has it all. Even if you don't want to spend alot of money New eve don't worry they bring the party to the streets. Meaning they clear out the strip and no children after 7pm allowed on the strip. They bring out the music/ drinks and it is like Mardi Graw. Really fun and I don't drink so if you like to people watch this is the place for you!

A Deal I Couldn't Pass Up

AS of February 2007 the interior of the hotel has been converted to the Planet Hollywood theme( Our room had a pair of Sammy Davis Jr's shoes on display). The facade facing the strip is still undergoing changes - it's shaping up to be a cubist style. Access to the parking lot is inconvenient, your best bet is to use the valet service. We weren't looking to stay at the Aladdin but when we stumbled across a $89 weekend rate we booked it on the spot. It is extremely rare to find a room on the strip for less than about $175 on weekend nights.

Unique Quality: I was most impressed with the huge bathroom with his/her vanities and an enormous soaking tub.

• Opinion of Price: less expensive than average

Nice hotel - good food

We stayed here 1 night as a fast city trip from LA. They have the best dinner buffet in town says the sign. We were not long enough to judge on this but our experiences of the buffet were great. Lots of food of different cuisines.

Unique Quality: Great shopping centre, good atmosphere.

Rub the lamp & make a wish.........

Make the most of this magical place cos very shortly its going to turn into Planet Hollywoods Towers. Work is already underway but it hasnt damaged the feelgood atmosphere of the Aladdin. I like this hotel with its 2 giant horses galloping thru the wall over the casino and it also boasts one of the biggest shopping areas in vegas..the Desert Passage..with 140 outlets and a mile and a half long. You can even take a rickshaw bike ride round the shops, if the old feet are complaining. I like the arabian port area where ,if you're lucky, you might get drenched in the thunderstorm. This really is a themed hotel with huge rooms and some pretty good restaurants and is renowned for being the wedding venue(in the chapel) of Elvis and Priscilla in 1967.

Unique Quality: Its unique qualities?....I hit the jackpot there on the slots under the banner of Enchanted Fortunes! ...say no more!

UPDATE: Alas no more! The Aladdin no longer exists and in its place is the very upmarket Planet Hollywood Hotel and Casino. Theyve kept the mile long shopping mall tho!

• Opinion of Price: about average

Great place to stay in the central of the strip!

We have a pleasant stay at the hotel despite the construction in turning the hotel to Planet Hollywood by end of the year. The room is clean and the bathroom is very spacious :) However, the unit that we stayed only came with a shower area.... and I overhead a lady asking for a room with bathtub while checking in... so I guess, if you want a room with a tub, you have to ask for it :P

Unique Quality: There is spa, pool, many restaurants and shopping on site!

Nice place all around

Stayed last year 2005 July. The Alladin is so nice. I hope it stays as nice as it was last year. I was told it was going to change over to a Hollywood theme, since the Middle East environment/scenery is considered politically incorrect due to 9/11 and all the terrorist activity in the past few years. So the owners decided to be "politically correct Americans" and change the theme of the hotel. Dumb. The table dealers, such a the craps table dealers were awesome. I am a beginner in craps and they were so patient/kind/funny. I had a blast losing my money. The amenities at the Alladin was awesome for the price paid. The best time to stay in the dead of the hot summer. That's for any hotel in Vegas. Pool is nice but overly crowded for their size. The room service was awesome too. Food good but slightly expensive.

Unique Quality: Table dealers at the craps tables were welcoming even if you only know the basics. The room was immaculate. So the housekeeping was on par. The rest of the personnel were friendly and helpful. Careful at the Elemnis Spa, they will sell you overly price unnecessary cosmetics and beauty products you will never probaly use when you get home.

Aladdin Resort and CasinoNot a very enticing Hotel

We traveled to Las Vegas end of April and beginning of March. Aladin was underconstruction, staff was rude and crude. Casino was nasty. Did not stay, opted to go to Ceasars Palace instead.
