The STRAT Hotel, Casino & Tower

Jess G

We booked The Strat through Redtag and our hotel voucher said our resort fees were 32 99 per night. Upon arrival to the hotel we were told they were 49.99 usd a night- with the exchange rate this is a ludacris amount of money and feels like a money grab or hidden fee - we didn't use any of the resort amenities and the pool was closed... And then there was anothet 93.00 Cndn charge to my card and when I called them they said it was a system glitch- however it will take 5-7 business days to correct this. I would prefer the hotels roll the resort fee directly into the room cost or charge if you actually use the amenities. I think this information is important for Canadians who are told one thing at booking and charged 50% more. The rooms - we had no issues with our room- we did an upgrade upon arrival. Our room was spacious, it was clean, beautiful view of the mountains and the bed was very comfortable. The TV frequently didnt work and we couldn't access the free wi-fi. The Strat itself is very clean. The location is a bit sketchy. Lots of unfocused people and people clearly struggling with addiction or mental health - there were a few scenes on the walk to the bus stop or toward the strip that felt unsafe - I think this piece is impprtant for people to be aware of when booking there. All in all we enjoyed the room and we enjoyed the atmosphere of the hotel but the unexpected fees left a sour taste.

I have stayed at the strap several times since they started renovating their rooms. I always have great experiences with the staff. The rooms are always clean although I’ve only ever stayed in the select tower. I can’t comment on the other towers. I recommend reserving straight from their website because you get a daily food credit and tickets to go up to the observatory deck. As far as the safety of the area, I never go out at night anyway and I take Ubers when I do go anywhere. There is a bus stop right outside, which makes it so convenient if you want to get a bus pass. There is a Denny’s walking distance and an IHOP in walking distance and a McDonald’s in the hotel.

This was one of the the most disappointing hotels I have stayed in. The room was booked and prepaid online using a popular travel site. During check-in, the room that was booked did not have the amenities on the booking. We would need to pay for one of the upgraded rooms which was an extra $50 per night. Add on the resort fee and I have now doubleed the cost of the room. They have pictures in the elevator of the new upgraded rooms. Ours looked nothing like the picture. It looked like it had not been updated since the mid 80s, save the shower which looked newer. The bathroom had a very strong odor of weed. The mattress had not been replaced since the hotel opened. There were so many flat spots, I could have slept on the floor and been more comfortable if I thought it was clean enough. On top of this, parking was not included or discontinued for hotel guests. I will not be returning to the Strat.

We checked into the Stratosphere on 24 January. We were offered an upgrade for $35 a night we took. we went to our room. The room was 80° and the thermostat was broken, we could not turn it down. We tried to call the front desk, but the phone between the two beds was broken and did not work. We tried to turn the TV on and it did not work for us either. We were working at the Furniture market, we were not there for fun! I use my cell phone to get help, but nobody ever showed up. We tried to sleep. It was excruciating the next morning we got up and had no hot water. We showered in the cold. We looked forward to coming home and having everything repaired we had no housekeeping we had no clean towels. We had a hot room. We had cold showers. We did this for three nights continually asking for assistance. Nothing came of it. The reason I gave it a one star is because the bed was comfortable. We will not be going back. Years ago, it was a wonderful place to stay. Something has gone seriously seriously wrong.

We stayed at the STRAT for New Year’s, and overall it was a very comfortable and pleasant experience. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-maintained, giving us plenty of room to relax after long days out on the Strip. One thing we really appreciated was the self-check-in kiosks. The process was quick and efficient, and we didn’t have to wait at all. It easily saved us 30–40 minutes, which is pretty typical at large casino hotels (especially around New Year’s) so that was a big plus and helped us start our trip stress-free. The hotel’s location is another thing to note. Since it’s the first hotel on the Strip (Northside), it’s a bit far from the main hustle and bustle. The upside is that it feels calmer and less chaotic, but the trade-off is a 30-40 minute walk to reach the more happening areas of the Strip. Depending on your plans, this can either be a peaceful bonus or something to plan around. Parking was plentiful and convenient, though it does come at an additional cost of $20 per day. Overall, considering the comfort, cleanliness, and smooth check-in experience, especially during a busy holiday, it was a good value for the price we paid.
