Hotel Overview

1,149-foot tower view, world's highest thrill rides This hotel features a restaurant, observation decks, a roller coaster, and a "reverse bungee jump" on the West's tallest tower. Located 1 block north of The Strip just inside the city of Las Vegas, the hotel provides equal access to The Strip and downtown. A large pool, two video-game arcades, an afternoon variety show, outdoor concerts, and the tower provide family fun.

Location

The Strip, Las Vegas
This 3-mile section of Las Vegas Boulevard is the city's bustling primary tourist destination. Impressive casino resorts house major attractions, dining, shopping, nightlife, and entertainment venues. The Guggenheim museums, the Forum Shops, and Cirque du Soliel are here, along with most of the best hotels, offering one-stop vacationing.

Property amenities

The hotel consists of 2,444 rooms in two towers, one with 24 floors and the other with nine. Facilities include a health and beauty spa offering body and facial treatments and in-room or poolside massage in addition to a full menu of beauty services. The hotel contains two video-game arcades, including a large one encircling the tower's base. Some 50 shops are also located at the tower's base.

What to expect: Rising 113 stories, the tower is the tallest free-standing structure in the West. Elevators whisk guests to indoor and outdoor observation decks with 360-degree views of the mountain-ringed desert valley. At night, the valley becomes a neon sea. This hotel appeals to both budget-minded vacationers and families.

Amenity highlights: The tower offers a revolving restaurant, a lounge, the world's highest rollercoaster, and "The Big Shot" ride, in which thrillseekers are thrust up the tower's needle and repeatedly dropped down. Cabanas furnished with a ceiling fan, television, telephone, and padded lounges can be rented around the large, eighth-floor rooftop pool, which contains basketball hoops and a volleyball net. Next to the pool, a 12-person, freeform spa supplies convivial soaking. Also within the pool complex is a fitness center with an outdoor free-weight area.
