Advantages: Price, comfy and clean rooms

Disadvantages: location-you do have to walk for 10-15 mins to get into the centre of the strip

The Stratosphere Tower is right at the top of the strip, so it's abit of walk to get to, however it's definitely worth it when you get there. We stayed in the Stratosphere for 5 nights last year, and had a room overlooking the strip (other rooms are available without the view for a slightly cheaper price). I must say the views from the room and the tower itself were spectacular, especially at night, and you get a great view of all the other hotels and casinos. The room itself was basic but nicely furnished and we were given complimentary tea and coffee with making facilities. The beds were really comfy, but it can be abit noisy at night sometimes with people coming back from the casinos. The pool was nice too however it normally closed by 8pm on the nights we were there (it was winter so low season). In the tower itself they have a fantastic restaurant with alot of choice-the prices were good-you could eat for around $50 per couple for an evening meal- and had great views again, as well as the rollercoaster which I couldn't bring myself to go on as it tips you right over the edge (the thought of it still makes me feel ill!) The price for the room was fantastic too-we paid £150 for our double room for the 5 nights and felt it's worth every penny. The whole place was clean and tidy and staff were on the whole very friendly. When we needed extra towels one day they came with them to our room within 2 minutes but did expect a tip, however I didn't mind giving it them. If you have never been to Las Vegas, you must go the to the tower even if you do not stay there. I would recommend the hotel for the price and facilities, the only downside being as above located right at the top of the strip, so its about a 15 minute walk to other hotels like Treasure Island and the Luxor.

Summary: Hotel was great, Views from the Tower phenomenal
