The Platinum Hotel and Spa

The Platinum Hotel and Spa Review

This swank, nongaming, condo-hotel has become a fashionable hideaway for Vegas regulars who prefer top-notch amenities but don't need to stay on the Strip. The all-suites property has huge rooms starting at 900 square feet, and all have 42-inch plasma TVs, living rooms with convertible sofas, lavishly appointed kitchens with stainless-steel appliances, whirlpool tubs, and MP3 radios. The top units also have fireplaces and views of the Strip. Additional perks include a first-rate restaurant (with fabulous martinis), complimentary valet parking, and a spa with treatments including wraps, massages, facials and more. All told, Platinum offers the style and substance of one of the city's top resorts with highly personalized service. Pros : cocktail menu at STIR Lounge; lavish rooms with comfy sofas and beds. Cons : no casino; location off the Strip makes it challenging to find a cab on busy nights.
