If you want a great view of the Las Vegas "Strip" with all the hotel resorts and casinos, then head to the Paris Hotel for the ride up to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Okay, it isn't the one in Paris, France, but it is an exact half scale reproduction. Most of all it is breathtaking to stand on the edge (completely safety fenced) at the top and look down. Wow! The swimming pools are gigantic in Las Vegas Resorts but from up high, they look mighty small.

It does take a few seconds to get your bearings, okay, stop the knees shaking, before you start viewing the "Strip" hotels, as you can walk a complete 360 around at the top of the Las Vegas Eiffel Tower at the Paris Hotel. Great viewing of the Fountains of Bellagio that are directly across the street. The Paris Hotel really knows how to do it up right. The walkway alone is worth the price of admission, adorned with lampposts guiding your way to the elevator that will wisk you, up. up, and up to the top of the Eiffel Tower Paris Hotel Las Vegas, a full 460 feet from the casino floor. This is one of the best ways to see the entire "Strip" without flying. Daytime viewing is great for the pools with night views that will have the dance of color from all the "Strip" neon that proclaims "Welcome to Las Vegas", a little more action and a little less conversation."

I am very fond of the whole look of the Paris Hotel and Casino. I like the architecture of the hotel; I admire the understated look of the inside and the Casino; I think that the replica of the Eiffel Tower is dignified and believable.

With the monorail conveniently stopping nearby, this is a great location whether you have a car or not. Similar to its namesake, the Paris Hotel/Casino possesses an inviting and romantic atmosphere. It's delightful to see the authentic replicas of famous French landmarks such as the Arc de Triomphe, the Hotel de Ville, facades of the Paris Opera Housse and the Louvre....but the finest replica is the 50-story half-scale Eiffel Tower. It's possible to dine in a restaurant 100 feet above the Strip or travel in the glass elevator to an observation deck at the top of the tower for excellent views of the city of Las Vegas.

You are able to shop at Le Boulevard in the European-style boutiques that are filled with great brand names.

But, I was most impressed by the people who work at this International Hotel...from the kind man who gave Mickey her Player's Card at the Casino to the vibrant young waitress at the Mon Ami Gabi restaurant, the efficiency, kindness, and professionalism spoke volumes.

Take an elevator ride up the Eiffel Tower and get a complete 360 degree view of the city of Las Vegas. This model of the Eiffel Tower is half the size of the actual Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. The best time to visit is at sunset or at night. Truly romantic, truly Paris (well almost)!

Open daily from 9:30 am until 1:30am. Weather permitting, 9:30 am until 7:30 pm.
Call to check for special family package prices.
15.00 for General Admission.

This was a master stroke by the Las Vegas city planners. With all the negative French vibe going on in the Bush-era USA, they decided to build Paris all over again, right here in the Nevada desert. Now, all the people who won't eat “French Fries” because of France's refusal to enter a war that even the United Nations didn't support, can stroll the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, head up to the top of the Eiffel Tower, or eat at five different Provence's at one meal. It might lack a bit of the sophistication and cultural attractions of the real thing but let's not even try and compare the weather. Just try getting a tan in Paris, baby. You can go straight from the pool and dine in Burgundy. Only in Vegas.

An attraction at the Paris Las Vegas is a half size replica of the Eiffel Tower. You can take a trip up it for a view of the strip. Tickets are $9 each and available from the Eiffel Tower box office. We went up during the day for an alternative view to the night time view we got from the Stratosphere.

We weren't too sure about going up the Eiffel Tower because we were afraid we would walk into a tourist trap. However, as we'd been pretty reasonable thus far (it was before the whole shoes incident) and I usually like going up buildings to enjoy a nice view of whichever city I happen to be in, we ended up getting tickets to the Eiffel Tower Experience. I'm so glad we did! Because it sits at the center of the Las Vegas Strip, the Eiffel Tower offers one of the best views of the famous boulevard. The elevator ride goes by fairly quickly thanks to a pre-recording that keeps repeating that everything is sexier in Paris (?!), and it takes you to the observation platform that stands 460 feet above the Strip. Its birdcage-like structure allows you to take great pictures of the surrounding buildings thanks to little holes through which you can put your camera.

Once you get up there, you should also make sure to secure a spot facing the Bellagio to watch the fountain show. The music can be heard very clearly, and being elevated gives you a whole new perpective since you are able to see the lights as well as the fountains. I thought that watching the show and enjoying the view below was totally worth the $10 entrance fees. You can stay as long as you want on the observation deck, and I would highly recommend going at night - that's when Las Vegas is at its prettiest!
