Las Vegas Hilton

User Rating: 1 out of 5 stars

I was @ the Hilton for a confrence Sept 30-Oct 3, I had the worst time in my life the hotel people were rude and the rooms were gross and very dirty, one of the people we were with went to bed one night and laid in a pool of pee that was his bed, the maid eaither never changed it or someone went in and just went right in the bed. We all about 10 of us went up front to talk to the manager, who was a jerk he thought he could give us 200.00 in dinnner comps and that would make a world of difference, In fact we had 3,000 people there and we wont be staying there ever again, no wonder Las Vegas is loosing there money they could care less about there customer's...Poor Ratings......

I honestly was going to skip my trip to Vegas on the 4th of July, but the Las Vegas Hilton came to the rescue. They gave me an offer for $115 for 3 nights ( any nights of the month in July and August). I called them up and booked for the hot 4th of July weekend. Amazingly they did not give me hard time, and let me have it for the special price. So just by the fact that I got such a steal, I was going to be very reasonable for the things the Hilton lacks. Which is not much!

We checked in at 8pm on a Thursday night. Definitely in a time crunch if we had to get to Tryst by 10pm. I unpacked all of my shirts to find some wrinkles in them. So I thought I would bust out the iron. It just so happens that I had one that did not work. I called front desk, and it took a good 30 minutes before the maid brought another iron up. They even went out of their way and tested the iron to make sure it works. How nice of them! I ironed my clothes and was on my way out and made my deadline.

Having stayed at the Hilton before, we knew exactly what the setup was. So getting ready and getting in and out of the hotel was a breeze. I m not going to review the room so much this time around, but give a little insiders point of view. Our last room did not have a flat screen, and this one did. So I highly suggest asking for one of the renovated rooms. It seems like the furniture in the room was newer as well. Overall size and lay out of the room is in the same. Our room was located on the 22nd floor of the central tower. Rooms in the quite east tower are $15 more a night.

Another thing people don't know about is the parking. Don't park in the designated lot for guests! You will be walking a mile to your room. I always park in the "Sports Book" parking lot on the east wing of the hotel. Make sure you don't park in the sports book VIP spot or you will get a ticket. From here it is about a 10 minute walk, instead of a 20 minute walk to your room in the East or Central towers.

The service all around the hotel was very. We didn't spend too much time in the room to really notice. They were gracious enough to offer us coupons for the weekend. It included coupons for drinks at the hotel, and dining/ room service etc etc. We didn't spend any of them because it was just a little too pricey even with the coupons. With our room we got a great view of the fireworks over by the Palazzo (center strip). This was an added bonus.

There were one minor annoyance with our bath tub. The drainage definitely needed some work done because the bath tub water came up all the way to our ankles whenever we took a shower. It was kind of like a bath/shower all at once. Another problem was catching an elevator. It seemed like the elevator system was not smart enough to detect that it is a full load and would stop at every floor when going down. It took anywhere from 5-10 minutes to catch one single ride.

Other then that, I would love to stay at the Hilton again. I don't expect steals like this, but as long as I get a reasonable price, I will be back to use the place as a mattress and a cooler bucket for my bottles again. The Hilton Las Vegas is still fit for the King.

This place has gone downhill fast.

PROS:
- Semi-quiet location off the strip.

NEUTRAL:
- Lines for dining are fairly short.

CONS:
- The Star Trek Experience is completely gone. This was one of the saving graces for the place.
- Poor show choice (Menopause the Musical -- really?).
