We got moved into a two bedroom suite after being put into two absolutely filthy rooms when we were there for our wedding in 2021. The room was so incredibly dated. The couch looked like it had been there since Elvis played Las Vegas. The better bedroom had the worse bathroom and vice versa. I would never have actually paid for that room as it needed to be updated so badly.

Sorry to hear about this experience, especially given you were there for your wedding :( it seems the Palazzo has not aged well. It opened in 2007 and hasn't had any TLC since. They are only just starting to refurbish Venetian rooms and it's been open since 1999! I think this suite was definitely "OK for the money" but I just think there are better options in Vegas for the same or less money.

It was peaceful enough once the pool closed. On my first night, they had the late night movie showing which was quite loud (but not a regular event). I was pleasantly surprised by the quiet the following evening. Of course, as you can hear in the video, the pool music is pretty loud during the day on the terrace. But the room was OK!

Hello! I would definitely pick the suite at Fontainebleau, though I would actually pick the Noble suite. I think this suite is a better value, and the layout of the living area is more spacious and bright. I prefer Fontainebleau overall as a resort, especially the pool, spa, and lounges, and the rooms feel more luxurious in my opinion. Given you already experienced the terrace, I think you'll find the room quality at Fontainebleau a step up.

Wow. Cheap Sofas in the living area.. and a really cheap side table against the living room wall. And cheap bedroom headboards behind the beds.

The overall effect didn't feel cheap, but it did lack a luxury feel. I regret not having the chance to stay when it was the Mandarin. For me, the draw of staying at this hotel is the pool deck. By far the best, most relaxing in Vegas, with great cabana deals.

Las Vegas hotels rooms were definately higher quality during the 2000s.. They are now no longer anything above a "nice" Marriott. Even Cosmo's rooms are so much more generic than their original incarnation. Same with 90% of all of the other "upscale" hotels in town. The fabrics, lighting, furniture, fittings, are not even really close to being "luxury". The only luxurious things about most Vegas rooms is the size. Skylofts desperately needs to be redone.. those "lofts" are from 2004! Definately Not Luxury.

Finally someone who says this. Also add in the fact that most if not all major hotels on strip have the same exact room layouts and basically the same design language. The hard product (non-existent) selection of the las vegas hotel scene is just absolute madness. I get that it is an accessible vacation spot for both east and west coast americans but man this place is not a good level vacation town if you set aside the open air debauchery circus aspect of it.

For me, room rates in Las Vegas are still the best value compared to anywhere. I think that's why people keep going back. I can stay in a big suite in Vegas for the same price as a base room at a Hilton in London.
