The STRAT Hotel, Casino & Tower

Adeeba Raheem

We stayed at the STRAT for New Year’s, and overall it was a very comfortable and pleasant experience. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-maintained, giving us plenty of room to relax after long days out on the Strip. One thing we really appreciated was the self-check-in kiosks. The process was quick and efficient, and we didn’t have to wait at all. It easily saved us 30–40 minutes, which is pretty typical at large casino hotels (especially around New Year’s) so that was a big plus and helped us start our trip stress-free. The hotel’s location is another thing to note. Since it’s the first hotel on the Strip (Northside), it’s a bit far from the main hustle and bustle. The upside is that it feels calmer and less chaotic, but the trade-off is a 30-40 minute walk to reach the more happening areas of the Strip. Depending on your plans, this can either be a peaceful bonus or something to plan around. Parking was plentiful and convenient, though it does come at an additional cost of $20 per day. Overall, considering the comfort, cleanliness, and smooth check-in experience, especially during a busy holiday, it was a good value for the price we paid.

We were told at check in that we did not have to pay for parking if we were guests of the hotel. Upon trying to leave, a very rude girl at the exit refused to just let us through and sent us to the front desk to get a “validation slip” which doesn’t exist. Marie (very unprofessional as well) at the front desk informed us that they don’t do that and we needed to go back to the exit and they would bill the room. Fine, perfect. We go. Again, the very disrespectful and rude girl, refuses to do what the front desk assured us she would. We did not budget for this stupid $21 charge, the surely they do not need that bad. Just open the gate, it’s that simple. But no, she wouldn’t budge. Call me cheap, but this was so unnecessary and unprofessional. Every other casino on the strip allows free parking for guests of the hotel. The entire staff here is rude and unhelpful. Oh and almost got trafficked in the women’s bathroom too. Save your money and go somewhere else.

The STRAT is a solid hotel overall, with impressive facilities that make for a comfortable stay. The casino and theater environments are particularly enjoyable, offering a vibrant and entertaining atmosphere. However, there were a few amenities missing from my room that could have improved the experience: no complimentary mineral water, hair dryer, coffee machine, bathtub, vending machines nearby, or even a sofa for lounging. Additionally, the security deposit wasn’t refunded upon checkout, which was disappointing—the hotel should ensure refunds are processed on the same day to avoid any inconvenience. Despite these shortcomings, it’s still a good option for those focused on the gaming and show aspects of Vegas.

We stayed at The Strat for a week. A few key things off the bat: Julisa, at the front desk, was absolutely amazing. We have a complicated set of reservations and she was able to make things as easy as possible for us. She kept us in the same room the whole time, even though the reservations didn’t require that. Tanisha (supervisor) at the front desk, was lovely to resolve a problem we were having with the parking lot app and to ensure everything was charged correctly (combining personal travel with work travel complicated everything!). I know that our situation was complicated but they ever acted as if it was. Also Jay at the box office - was great to offer tips to us and explain what discounts were available by being Strat guests. We would have missed some things if he hadn’t. Our maid service worked like ninjas. We don’t know when they came in the room, but we would randomly have all of our trashes emptied, fresh towels, bed made, etc.. all without ever touching our personal items Across the board, the hospitality was top notch. We liked it was slightly removed from the strip. Other Pros: The rooftop rides!! real blankets on the bed (I hate when hotels give you sheets as a bedspread) Plenty of towels and washcloths Quick turn over maid service Tons to do in the hotel itself Comedy club- that was a freaking blast Onsite parking Loved the views Hot, hot water and kick ass pressure The property itself is well secured with security being present but not overwhelming (comfortable enough that my overly worried fiancé wasn’t concerned with me walking around alone) Penny slots are a fun way to gamble without stressing a big loss- can play on $20 for a while Cons: some of areas are dated Shower had that weird half- wall thing and I hated that The heater/fan cycled constantly, like every few minutes. The Strat TV channel that replays the same song endlessly was so annoying A few more channels would be great for winding down at night. Room was small. Bathroom lights need to be brighter No microwave in the room (we knew that ahead of time, but it was still annoying).

Tower must Recommend. Good Reward option. Happy tower time. 5 to 7 PM. Great view. Great experience. Good discount for hotel residents. Little high cost to see the view but worth it. *Highly recommend *
