Advantages: Beautiful rooms and excellent service.

Disadvantages: It is expensive.

We stayed at this hotel to celebrate a special anniversary and had decided to push the boat out a bit. We were not disappointed.

I had booked through Virgin Holidays, but emailed the hotel direct to request a room overlooking the golf course (my husband's choice) as it was our anniversary. When we arrived we were upgraded from a resort room (their basic) to a panoromic room, basically it is the same sized room but the panoramic has a wall to wall, floor to ceiling window, as we were on a high floor the view was fantastic. There were plenty of high speed lifts which was great as there are about 2000 rooms.

The reception is filled with around 25000 flowers and provides a riot of colour. We were checked in very quickly and found all the staff helpful and friendly.

The room was a good size (640 square feet) with a super kingsize bed, sofa, table and chairs, flatscreen tv, remote control curtains, Egyptian cotton linen, a huge bathroom with tv, shower, large bath and plenty of toiletries. you would have no real need to upgrade the room as it was very comfortable with plenty of space. We heard no noise at all from the corridor or adjoining rooms.

Unusually for Vegas, the room did have a mini bar and snacks, but they were expensive. The room service menu was large but again was expensive - you could get a breakfast to your room for $400, it did include champagne and caviar! There were cheaper options available. Every night your room would be made ready for your return with music and lights on low, curtains closed, ice bucket filled up and chocolate by your bed. If you had so much as dried your hand on a towel since they had been in to service your room earlier in the day, the towels were replaced.

This is a hotel that is caters for those with a large amount of spending money. A round of golf on their course was $500 and was only available to residents. The hotel also includes a small mall with shops such as Louis Vuitton, amongst others. One jewelers would only admit people by invitation. There was also a Ferrari showroom and garage in the hotel. There is no 'theme' to this hotel other than luxury.

However if you just want to experience a bit of luxury it is possible to stay here without spending a fortune. The restaurants were good and there are a choice of places to eat varying from snacks and buffet to fine dining. It is more expensive than eating in many of the other hotels in Vegas, but was very good quality with high standards of decor and service. Bear in mind you can eat anywhere in Vegas, you do not have to eat where you stay and half the fun is trying out as many different places as you can. I would recommend buying bottles of water and snacks for your room outwith the hotel and taking them back with you as it saves a fortune.

The hotel also has spa facitilities, which we did not use, there is also a lovely large pool area with plenty of loungers and you can rent a private cabana if you wish.

Location wise this hotel was great for the Fashion Mall and we prefered the location of this hotel with regard to its situation on the Strip than the Luxor where we stayed previously.

If you want to push the boat out I would highly recommend this hotel, but if you are on a budget this is not the one to chose. We had a lovely stay and would stay here again, though it may be worth checking out some of the other hotels which will be cheaper and paying to upgrade your room in those if you want to keep costs down.

Summary: A lovely hotel but have plenty of cash with you.
