“Top of the world was one of the nicest places I've ever been to dine, the steak I ordered was beyond absolutely fantastic. Furthermore the overall experience was great after a wonderful dinner I was extremely pleased when I got a bonus on a slot that payed me more then I have won anywhere else gambling in Vegas so far and it happened not even 5 ta 10 minutes after dinner. I absolutely loved my experience here and it all started with a simple reservation f…”
“Location is great. I have stayed at this hotel 3 times in the past few years with no issues until this weekend, we got there and the first room didn’t have a real door on the bathroom, when you turn the bathroom fan on it smells like a dead animal, the phone didn’t work either.

“I haven't stayed at this hotel yet, my cousin's took me to enjoy my birthday & overall everything went well, people were polite, courteous & everyone very friendly, margaritas were delicious & view from the top was amazing. Once I stay in this hotel I will come back to do another review on rooms & food so we'll see about those things. P.S. A little extra thank you because they were very accommodating & helpful to people with disabilities, so thank you from…”
“A solid hotel and a great stay at The STRAT! Our room was clean and comfortable, with everything we needed. It’s a little north of the main action on the Strip, but being closer to Fremont Street and some cheaper bars was a bonus for us. The location worked well for our visit, and we really enjoyed our stay! Would have been better with tea and coffee in the room. Towels were near end of life.”
“Went to the icons of rock show. Was greeted by the most cheerful person taking tickets. Jill’s outgoing personality is really a rare things these days. The show was amazing and all the performers were right on the money. It felt like seeing the actual artists. Great work! Had a great time. Too bad there’s no dance floor area because the music will make you want to get up and dance!”
