The Best Luxury Hotels in Las Vegas
If you want the nicest version of a Vegas stay and the budget can reach it, these are the hotels I would put my own money on. All of them I stayed at and reviewed in person.
Ranked roughly by how they scored with me, from the most polished down.
1The smoothest, most polished stay on the Strip. Everything just works.
North end of the Strip, across from the Fashion Show Mall, still walkable to center Strip
2Wynn's newer sibling with suite-style rooms and one of the best pools in town.
North end of the Strip, a little farther north than the Wynn, across from Resorts World
3Every room is a huge suite, so it is the best space for your money in the luxury tier.
Center Strip, walking distance to the Forum Shops and Fashion Show Mall
4The coolest, most modern rooms on the Strip, and the terrace suites have real balconies.
Center Strip, next to the Bellagio and across from the Miracle Mile Shops and Planet Hollywood
5The classic center-Strip luxury pick, with great pools and the fountains out front.
Center Strip, at the fountains
6The best modern big-box luxury hotel, central and full of tech.
Center Strip, next to the Cosmopolitan and Park MGM, with a tram to the Bellagio and Park MGM
7The newest luxury tower in town, pristine, if you do not mind the far-north address.
North end of the Strip, near the Sphere and the Wynn golf course
8An icon that still delivers, as long as you book a newer tower.
Central Strip, right beside the Bellagio
