80 Best Hotels in Nevada, USA

Everything at Planet Hollywood is designed to make ordinary people feel like stars, and the spacious rooms are no exception. Who can resist a room branded \"ultra hip\"? They start at 430 square feet and feature a king or queen bed, a flat-screen TV, plush chairs, and mini-refrigerators. On higher floors, some of the hotel's pricier Ultra Panorama Suites feature 180-degree views of the Strip and oversized soaking tubs. The adjacent Elara offers 1,201 apartment-like rooms and a separate pool. Planet Hollywood's main attraction has become the Mindfreak residency show from Criss Angel. Reflections The Spa still has traces of its original Arabian theme (from when the property was The Aladdin), and offers massages, whirlpools, and saunas, and female guests rave about the nail salon. The Miracle Mile Shops is one of the Strip's best on-site resort malls, with more than 150 stores.

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 walk-out balconies, living rooms with convertible sofas, lavishly appointed kitchens with stainless-steel appliances (and optional grocery delivery service), whirlpool tubs, and satellite radios. The top units also have fireplaces and views of the Strip. Additional perks include both indoor and outdoor pools, Stir lounge (with a menu), complimentary valet parking, and the adjacent Well Spa. All told, Platinum offers the style and substance of one of the city's top resorts with highly personalized service.

One of the best bets in town, this comfortable hotel walks the line between classy and delightfully kitschy, with Western-theme rooms, on-site gambling, a pool, and a tasty Mexican restaurant. The lobby is fun and welcoming, with cowboy art and antiques on display. Be sure to take one of their signature rubber duckies from your room.

Way out on the western edge of the Las Vegas suburbs, this swanky golden-age Vegas property looks out on the ocher-red Spring Mountains, just a stone's throw from Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. Inside, dozens of crystal chandeliers contrast with earthy sandstone walls and teak-marble floors. Rooms upstairs are among the nicest in all of Vegas, mixing modern touches such as mini-sculptures and USB ports with traditional elements such as couches. Suites take accommodations to another level, with pool tables and private patios (some even with private pools). Red Rock has a large public pool area, a 16-screen movie theater, a bowling alley, a vast selection of excellent restaurants (some with outdoor patios), and rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows. Even the gaming area is exquisite; the sports book has its own VIP area and three video walls that can combine into one huge screen. There's also a poker room. Factor in the live music in the hopping Rocks Lounge, occasional ticketed concerts in the backyard pool area and walking distance to baseball and other attractions in the Downtown Summerlin shopping district, and you can see why a lot of repeat visitors decide to skip the Strip.

Everything is intimate at Marriott's nongaming hotel off the Strip on Paradise Road, a favorite of business travelers because of the location right next to the Las Vegas Convention Center. There are \"only\" 578 rooms and suites in this property, and most of them are smaller than the standard accommodations on the Strip. Bathrooms are diminutive, too, but do come with separate tubs and glass shower stalls. Even the pool is small. The property lacks a casino but has everything to suit a convention visitor's needs, including access to the monorail and some room packages offering breakfast at the on-site restaurant Grill 55.

This three-story resort is the first stop along Kyle Canyon Road (about 17 miles up). It has the feel of a lodge, including a four-sided stone fireplace to gather around in the spacious lobby, which is appointed with vintage pinball games. The Canyon Restaurant provides large-window views of the surrounding mountainscape. There is a cocktail lounge with a rotating selection of regional beers on tap and a pool table, and a 24-hour convenience store/snackbar where you can pick up a map pinpointing the area's hiking trails. The hotel has 61 rooms with flat-screen TVs, and some have wall heaters that look like wood-burning fireplaces. Outdoor seating around the property provides a great way to take in the majestic scenery.

This sprawling resort with spacious rooms just west of the Strip was pioneering in its appeal to locals and visitors but fell on post-pandemic hard times before new owners, Dreamscape Cos., started sinking money into a complete renovation, but room renovations are still ongoing. By the end of 2024, the $350-million refurbishment was evident on the casino floor, with new furniture, carpeting, and wall coverings—even the new Lapa Lounge at the center of it all. The Rio's pioneering buffet became a permanent casualty of the pandemic (as did most Las Vegas buffets), but was replaced by the Canteen Food Hall, with sushi, ramen, and burgers among the choices. The sprawling pool area, another stand-out of the old days, received a complete overhaul as well. And after a five-year absence, the 51st-floor VooDoo Lounge reopened in early 2025. More than half of the rooms had been remodeled by the end of 2024 as well. The standard so-called \"suites\" don't actually have separate bedrooms, but they're spacious (at least 600 square feet), and higher-end units have double whirlpool tubs, wet bars, and other cushy touches. And the place makes up for its distance to the Strip by having plenty of entertainment options under one roof, including Penn & Teller, a family-friendly, old-school variety revue called Wow!, and a branch of New York's Comedy Cellar.

Minus Michael J. Fox and a weird DeLorean, this resort is as close as you'll get to a Back to the Future experience in Las Vegas, one that literally reinvents a reinvention (in this case the Sahara, whose ill-fated rebranding as the SLS was later rolled back). Zippy recap: the original Sahara, a totem of classic Las Vegas, closed in 2011, then reopened as the SLS in 2014, but never caught the magic of the original, so it was retro-rebranded (with new owners) in 2019. References from the past were both retained (renaming the lounge The Casbar after the original live music venue) and rejected (gone is the original Moroccan decor). The Sahara has pegged its appeal to a more boutique feel rather than a luxury blowout. The rooms are split between three modest-sized towers, and recommended eateries include Bazaar Meats, Bella Italian Soul, and Chickie's & Pete's. A few trendy bars and lounges are available for the undemanding nightlife seeker, and you can top off your Sahara experience with a dip in the rooftop pool—one of three on the property.

The pioneering \"locals casino\" has anchored Boulder Highway since 1979 as a pure example of the casino as a mall-meets-community-center: locals flock to the movie theater, huge sports book, and sprawling underground bowling center. If you do make a special trip, the distinguishing feature is the Mystic Falls Park, an indoor garden under a beautiful skylight, rimmed by hotel rooms, a bar and patio seating at the Angry Butcher Steakhouse, punctuated by the occasional howls of animatronic animals and periodic synchronized light shows.

The boutique Silverton has long embraced a rustic mountain theme but doubled down after recent major renovations, redoracting rooms with cowboy kitsch or modern rustic style, improving the pool, and proclaiming the property a \"Lodge.\" The $40 million project to freshen the hotel has created rooms that might reflect the home of a cattle baron like John Dutton, with suites designed for working or entertaining, and some adjacent to The Swimmin' Hole pool deck, complete with direct access from the balcony. Speaking of that pool: $10 million was spent to renovate it, adding deluxe cabanas and daybeds, a 32-foot retractable screen and three fire pits—and the pool itself is kept at 86 degrees year-round.

Perk or quirk: the South Point is the only resort in the Las Vegas area with an equestrian center, a venue that hosts rodeos and other horse-oriented shows frequently almost year-round, as well as offering spacious rooms and a great spa. That makes it a big draw for horse-lovers, but it's not all the South Point has to offer. The spa offers 27 treatment rooms and a co-ed wet area, and the hotel has a 64-lane bowling alley, 16-screen movie theater, and one of the biggest bingo halls in town. Large hotel rooms and suites reach up to 2,500 square feet. The palm-lined pool area is inviting, too, provided you don't mind low-flying airplanes taking off from nearby Harry Reid International Airport. The sports book packs in big crowds on game days, with more than 300 seats. Visitors would be wise to capitalize on locals-oriented jackpots and promotions.

The Strat is synonymous with the 1,149-foot observation tower that soars over every other building in town, with newly renovated rooms that are downright sumptuous for the price. The tower itself, an iconic part of the Las Vegas skyline, contains one-of-a-kind thrill rides, a fantastic restaurant (Top of the World), and a great bar (108 Drinks)—but notably no hotel rooms. Those are down below, in two hotel towers, in both \"standard\" and \"Elevate\" styles, the latter with higher-end amenities and prices, though still a decent value. Restaurants worth exploring: McCall's Heartland Grill, a comfort food palace, and CHI Asian Kitchen. The Swim & Social Pool, on the eighth floor, has cabanas, daybeds, and poolside games.

Whether you call it Treasure Island or TI, what sets this resort apart is a dash of elegance mixed with a decidedly unpretentious vibe and reasonably priced dining options. Whereas other properties boast of a branch of Tiffany's, this one features a CVS and a vaping store (those aren't the only stores, but you get the picture). Whereas others feature sky-high-priced restaurants, Gilley's BBQ anchors the scene here. This more inviting approach for a modern Strip property is the product of owner Phil Ruffin's plan to make the place more accessible to all. Thankfully, accommodations are still top-notch. Mystère, the Strip's first Cirque du Soleil show, is still going strong here, and the Cove Bar & Arcade is family-friendly, despite the name. T.I. is a short walk from The Venetian, Wynn, and Fashion Show Mall.

This low-key property is actually a hotel-condo, with beautiful suites that have efficiency kitchens, pull-out sofas, and lots of extra space. Because the suites are so big, they're perfect for large groups looking to shack up together during the visit to Vegas, and canine family members can be included. Each one has 50-inch digital flat-screen TVs, Bluetooth speaker connectivity, and a media hub with ports for digital cameras, DVD players, and gaming consoles. Bathrooms aren't as spacious as they could be, but the built-in seat in the walk-in shower is a refreshing addition, and Stay Well rooms and suites are available. Because Vdara has a more laid-back vibe than ARIA, the Vdara Pool & Cabanas feels like a private swimming hole. You can order everything from sunscreen to tapas and made-to-order cocktails. This personal attention continues in the two-floor Spa at Vdara, where therapeutic European temperature changes are a specialty. The Vice Versa Patio & Lounge is hip and swanky; some locals actually go out of their way to visit here.

\"Virgin\" may be a curious name for Las Vegas, but Sir Richard Branson's brand offers a tranquil yet sophisticated desert vibe replacing the guitars and rock memorabilia that were part of the former Hard Rock Hotel. Perhaps understandably, the deliberate shift in energy level has made the property seem a little less essential—and seldom crowded outside of concert nights. Several carryovers from the Hard Rock days remain, having been renamed or renovated, including The Theater concert venue (previously The Joint), the famous Nobu restaurant, the 24/7 coffee shop now called The Kitchen at Commons Club, and the Mexican cantina now called Lucia Mexican Grill. Newer restaurants include One Steakhouse by David and Michael Morton. The rooms and suites in the three hotel towers are now operated as part of Hilton's Curio Collection; the all-suites Ruby Tower has its own check-in area. The renovated 5-acre pool area hosts the Elia Beach Club, bordered by an event lawn for concerts and events, and patio seating for some of the restaurants. The Bar at Commons Club and adjacent Shag Room are attractive, plush lounges with a sophisticated vibe. A smaller venue, 24 Oxford, has lately been hosting the burlesque show Lady Like.

The former Mandarin Oriental was renovated in late 2023 after becoming the Waldorf Astoria, but updates to the luxurious non-casino hotel continue to be introduced. The lobby and front desk, formerly on the 23rd floor, have been moved to the ground floor, making room on the lofty tier for two new lounges—Hard Shake and Peacock Alley, the latter a tea lounge found in other Waldorf locations. Rooms are decorated in soothing neutrals and have floor-to-ceiling windows for expansive views of the Strip and surrounding mountains; amenities include minibars and robes and slippers. Rooms are 500 square feet, and suites range up to the 3,100-square-foot, two-bedroom Presidential Suite (which includes kitchen with butler entrance) on the 20th floor.

Convention attendees have loved this hotel's proximity to the Las Vegas Convention Center for decades, but converting some of its hotel rooms to time-shares has also helped the hotel stay in the game as the Strip has exploded with bigger and bolder properties. It's an amazing testimony to resilience, and has been renovated extensively since the mid-2010s. Some lean years for the showroom made famous by Elvis robbed the overall property of that certain sizzle; but entertainment has been on the upswing as well, thanks it being the one guaranteed place to still see Barry Manilow, as well as one-night concert stops by casino favorites such as Air Supply and Cheap Trick. Magician Jen Kramer and tributes to Motown and Elvis have lately shared a unique little cabaret venue. The property's real standout attraction now is its Superbook, which pioneered the mission-control-style sports book and continues to set the line for betting action (the giant screens got upgraded during the pandemic). Because the hotel is east of the Strip, west-facing accommodations have great views. A variety of suite options include one- and two-bedroom accommodations with amenities ranging from spa tubs to dining tables and wet bars. Live cooking action at the world's largest and arguably most famous Benihana restaurant has been a consistent novelty amid changes inside and outside this piece of Las Vegas history. But a surprising number of restaurants are still on property, including a rare surviving buffet.

This lavish resort with a Moroccan vibe sits on the shore of Lake Las Vegas and has richly appointed rooms with arched windows that offer sweeping views of the glittering lake and desert. There's even a small beach where soft, white sand is trucked in every summer. A favorite spot on the property is the Arabesque Lounge, a Moroccan-inspired bar and sitting area just off the main lobby. Here bartenders pour the resort's signature rum-and-Tuaca cocktail—named, appropriately, the Casablanca. The G Aveda Spa Lago specializes in massages and facials. 

Beneath towering pines at the lake's edge stand 28 cozy, modern, vacation cabins with peaked knotty-pine ceilings, and although they're not fancy, they come in various sizes, some perfect for families. There are also four sparely furnished rooms in the large lodge building that holds the resort's restaurant. Across U.S. 50, a sprawling year-round campground is geared toward RVers, but with walk-in tent sites, too. The resort, old-school in its ambience and ambitions, has horseback riding, snowmobiling facilities, and a marina with boat, WaveRunner, kayak, and other water-sports rentals, all of which contribute to the summer-camp atmosphere. Pets are allowed for a fee.
