Tip Rating:   Satisfaction: |  |  | |  |
The Stratosphere hotel and casino is one of the hottest places to go if you have a head for heights. The tower, at a massive 115 stories, gives you an unbeatable view of the Strip, permitting you to see with a bird's eye view. In many cases, you'll get to see the birds below, as well. If you are also interested in flying high, at the tip of the tower, you can be launched an additional 160 feet on a thrilling ride. While the tower doesn't have the hotel rooms, many of the rooms have fantastic views of the tower looking overhead.
The Stratosphere spacious rooms are designed to make certain that you are comfortable while emphasizing modern settings with two queen-size beds, a comfortable sitting area, and a lavish bathroom with plush towels and toiletries. The coffee-making facilities were well stocked, and there was a fridge crammed with alcohol . There are a variety of different room features at your disposal to help make certain that you can enjoy your stay and the best is that it has a weekday and weekend stay special that rooms are available for only $35 on weekdays and $85 on weekends! cheaper than staying at Motels! Plus the Buffet here are cheap! Courtyard buffet offer $18 lunch and $24 dinner buffets and Luck's Cafe Offers Midnight specials like a 12 ounce Rib eye steak for only S12 and Top of the World restaurant offers Colorado Rack of Lamb and Chateaubriand 3-course dinner for two.
The tower is one of the jewels of Las Vegas, towering above the hotels and casinos at a massive 151 stories. The needle, extending it a further 160 feet, shoots riders high up in the air for a thrill that won't be forgottenn plus it has insane rides at the top called Big Shot, Insanity and X-thrill!
The Stratosphere is the northernmost of the major Strip casinos and the only one actually in the City of Las Vegas, as the rest of the strip south of Sahara Avenue is in the suburbs of Paradise and Winchester. Following its completion in 1996 it was initially less popular than first envisioned due to its location on the extreme north end of the strip, far away from the most popular hotel casinos. But its low room prices and unique offerings eventually ensured its success. While many tourists consider its location to be inconvenient, others feel the location is an advantage since it is equidistant between the more popular strip casinos and the downtown area (which includes the Fremont Street Experience) PLUS Public Buses ply the Las Vegas Boulevard route wherein you pay $2 for a one way ride up the the end of the strip at Mandalay Bay but better take the 24 Hour $5 Buss pass as it is more cheaper means of Transportation in/around the Various Casino's and Attractions in the Strip.
The casino, spanning 86,000 square feet, has a variety of games that can please any level of gambler. There are different table and slot games available, so you can have all of the fun you could want, regardless of which type is your favorite Theme: HotelPrice: US$40-80 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensivePhone: (702)380-7777Directions: Stratosphere Las Vegas 2000 Las Vegas Boulevard South Las Vegas, NV 89104 800-998-6937 (702)380-7777Website: www.stratospherehotel.com

| | | | Stratosphere Hotel and Casino: Priced Right
Tip Rating: Satisfaction: | | | | |
Stayed here with some girlfriends and we had a room in the Towers. It was nicely decorated and was very satisfied with the cleanliness. The people here were very friendly and helpful.
At that time, the older neighborhood was right up against the hotel, so security was an issue with us. So just keep an eye on everything and everyone around you when you are in the parking area.
Has an 80,000-square-foot casino, 6 restaurants, salon, spa, two huge pools, spa, salon, high speed- internet access, indoor and outdoor fitness centers and some pretty neat Tower Shops. Leave a Comment

Tip Rating: Satisfaction: | | | | |
This is where we laid our heads to rest after a whirlwind day of sightseeing. The hotel is nice and comfortable, although we didn't spend a lot of time there!
The Strat is north of all the other casinos on the Strip, and it's a long walk just to the Sahara, the closest casino. It's best for people with cars, or who don't mind mass transit or shuttles.
What You Get Bottles of in the Bathroom: You get shampoo and conditioner in tower-shaped bottles.
Really, did you go to Vegas to sit in the room or did you go to explore this wildly entertaining city? Right.
I did like our hotel. Not as crowded or loud as some of the others in the middle of the strip...nice and comfy.
Top of the World: This is one of the most expensive restaurants in Las Vegas. It is at the top of the Stratosphere Tower, so the views are spectacular. Everything comes a la carte, meaning if you order a steak, you pay an extra $5 for the potato, and then more for the vegetables and dessert. It can be very romantic, and if you really want to impress someone, book a reservation for sunset and watch the valley twinkle in the twilight. If you want a good deal, though, check out the lunch menu here, which starts just over $10 and includes a free ride up the tower. The view's nicer at night, because during the day you see all the smog hanging over the valley, but we can't afford to be picky.
At 1,149 feet, the Stratosphere Tower is the tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States and the tallest building west of the Mississippi River.
From the observation decks, lounge, restaurant, meeting & banquet space and private dining rooms, guests enjoy panoramic views of the Las Vegas Strip and the surrounding valley.
The High Roller roller coaster is the world's highest roller coaster! At 909 feet above the ground, the High Roller rockets around the tower pod on 840 feet of track banking sharply at 32-degree angles, traveling approximately 32 miles per hour.
The Big Shot thrill ride catapults 16 riders from the 921-foot high platform up the Tower's mast to a height of 1,081 feet. Traveling at 45 miles per hour, riders experience 4G's as they reach the very top, and feel negative G's on the way down.
There's also the Tower Shops for those who want to shop rather than scream.
