Review from Teresa W.
Orlando, FL

We got a great online deal @ LVH w/ a 3rd party website. The room itself was pretty on par w/ a decent Holiday Inn Express. Fair views of the surrounding mountains and the Strip from the higher floors (we started out on 6 and moved up to 17). The "Going Green" program is a nice perk; you can get daily $10 food vouchers...however, the hotel restaurants are somewhat lacking and when Benihana is open, everything downstairs smells like shrimp, which is kind of gross. Convenient on-site monorail access. I did not use the LVH casino, so no clue how that fairs.
My biggest complaints are these: 1) We were on a non-smoking floor where it seemed that EVERYONE was constantly smoking. I stuffed towels under the adjoining room doors and our room still reaked. Which brings me to... 2) There are adjoining doors in EVERY room...one for each room flanking you. There were 2 adjoining doors in our room and, instead of having keyed deadbolts, there were bolts that could be flipped from either side and a simple slide chain. Drunkards and doors to other people's rooms do not mix and it's rather unsettling when someone tries to open the door to YOUR room in the middle of the night...only to be stopped by the snapping of the chain. There are safer, more sensible ways to execute an adjoining door.
Also, we had a split reservation b/c the first 4 days of our trip were on our dime, while the remaining 3 were being paid by my husband's company. Despite how extremely common this must be for hotels all over the world, LVH could not get it together and we were plagued w/ "complications" from this the entire visit. It was never complicated, the staff or the system simply suffered from a total lack of communication.
Overall, the LVH is a fine and affordable Las Vegas option. It's way better than ghetto places like the Imperial Palace, Bally's and Harrah's. While my husband may choose to stay here whilst in town for conventions, I will not be staying here again. -

I've never been to the hotel, but I'm a vendor that sells them merchandise for the gift shop and I am really disgusted at the lack of payment for open invoices. These guys are a casino and they are refusing to pay $678 invoice that was due back in February. SHAME ON YOU LVH, shame on you.
Don't give these people your business. -

This weekend was my first time in Vegas- came with a friend here on business, so his company covered the room. He was working at the conference center, hence the hotel choice. He drove in from LA and was much later than my flight, and the hotel was nice enough to be able to transfer the prepaid room into my name so that I could check in.
We were on the 24th floor with resort club privileges- not sure what to compare this to, because the room was pretty generic. We got a letter listing our resort level benefits, including lounge access on our floor to have a light breakfast, snacks, and wine/cheese social in the evenings, which was a nice touch. Also included free fitness center access, which I'd researched upon arriving and balked about the $20/day access fee- which is insane considering what is actually available. It's essentially a room of weight machines, some treadmills, and three outdated ellipticals. I was surprised. Used it for what I needed and left, but nothing there was worth even half of that access fee for the weekend, let alone the day. Room came with business computer-- but I am still waiting, an hour and a half later, for someone to bring me the cord to actually USE it. Housekeeping says they're still looking for it and to go to the business center instead. Will do, but not thrilled about it. Also, my partner was a little annoyed not to get the slippers/robe listed among our amenities.
I'm not a casino fan, so I didn't evaluate that, but the giant sports screen at the Superbook was pretty cool. Didn't want to do the buffet, so went to Paradise Cafe instead on my first night alone. Date and I did the sushi bar inside of Bennihana's the following night. Having access to the monorail was a plus.
All in all, aside from the printer cable situation and fitness center access fees, it was fine. But just fine. Expectations were a little higher. -

ugggggggggggggggggghhhhh... I will never visit this place again!!!!
1- You are on the complete opposite side of the strip
2- they are still charging a crazy amount per night
3- The rooms are old, and make me want to sleep in my car.
The hotel is very old. I did not have the best experience there. I had to call room servicer to have them change my sheets. They were not clean. I dont recomend this place at all.
But on a bright side i will give the buffett a 5 stars. I keep telling myself tht if i go back to Vegas i will visti their buffett. You pay I believe $15 or $16 per person all you can eat. But they have a pasta buffett where they will cook you chicken, shrimp, with any kind of pasta i personally loved it this must of been the best thing about the entire trip. The buffett highly recomended. To stay, defenitley find else where. -

Traveled for business with my wife, and our only requirement was the room was King, non-smoking. At check-in, I was told that they didn't have that and there was no requirement that they actually reserve what we had made reservations for. An hour and a half later, we finally were checked in to our room. We were on the 10th floor of the North tower. The hotel is pretty dated in general, but the room had been updated, and was newer and cleaner than the public areas of the hotel.
My biggest grips is that the non-smoking room shared HVAC with other smoking rooms, so the room often smelled like smoke anyway. The air conditioning fan had a setting to either run continuously or be off, so it ran all night. Bottom line: no sleep, sick, sinus infection, and sending everything to the cleaners.
We booked here because the hotel is next to the convention center, but it was at least a 15 minute walk from the lobby to the actual convention center through a maze of hallways and alleys, no direct connection.
As others have mentioned, it would have been nice to have free wifi in a hotel that caters to business travelers at the convention center, very odd in this day not to offer it. -

5/3/2012 3 Check-ins Here
Being a frequent business traveler I attend a few trade shows a year in Vegas and have been to this property many times. Especially since it is pretty much connected and right next door to the convention center it's hard to avoid. From it's days as the original Las Vegas Hilton to it's current incarnation as the LVH there is still not much for me here to really embellish on or recommend. It's one of the most boring casino properties in Vegas.
When I was here a few weeks ago I did notice some things in the casino area and bar areas had been redecorated, with a bunch of new digital slots machines on the floor, but it still has an empty drab feel to it. They used to house the Star Trek Experience here and had a space age casino designed and dedicated to it, but that is long gone and yet the shell of the casino still remains. It looks kind of weird and unfinished. The regular main casino floor is large enough with a good amount of table games along with a decently sized sports book, but there is no buzz here at all. It's like this place is still stuck in the 80's and the new regime here has it stuck in neutral.
The times I have stayed here overnight were no big shakes either. The rooms are big enough but kind of plain. Clean but nothing to write home about. Along those lines the restaurants here are a total snoozefest. Benihana is their "high end" eatery - haha! Along with a lame Asian place and an even blander buffet it seems the best option to eat is their Paradise diner/cafe. Don't even ask about the almost non-existant nightlife here. The one big plus is that the monorail is close by to jump on and head to the strip with it's multitude of casino's and entertainment options.
It seems that the LVH is around mainly for convention travelers with it's convenience next to the convention center, and is normally the home base for many of the attendees and exhibitors. Still, why stay here when there are so many options along the strip in the same price point and a state of the art monorail system that can easily bring you back and forth within minutes? -
Review from Quijana B.
Waipahu, HI
A dear friend of mine escapes to Vegas every chance she gets. I'd heard about the wonders of this hotel long before I had a chance to spend a night. I'm happy that I had the chance, and I wish I had been able to see it in its prime.
We were lucky. We managed to snag one of the rooms on the third floor. These rooms do not feature an amazing view, nor do they feature over the top decoration. Instead they feature a quiet elegance alongside a bit of throwback charm. I was so sorry to have to check out after my only night staying in this room, and when I make it back to Las Vegas, this is where I will head.
The room was a split level, with the bathroom and beds at the top, then a few steps down to a small seating area and desk. I was so pleased with what I found just outside the sliding glass doors. My own very private canopied lanai. Just beyond my area was a walkway that ran the length of the hotel and connected all of the rooms on that side. The walkway wrapped around the hotel and could easily have been used as a jogging path. I believe it connected to the pool area, but did not have time to explore. Next time!
Las Vegas is an interesting place, and my constant traveling companion is my young son. I don't gamble and I don't drink, so we spent most of our time in the hotel hanging out in the small cafe in the walkway. We had so much fun watching the wide variety of people walk by. Who needs an expensive show? Ok, we needed an expensive show. We did not get to see one here, sadly, but I was told that the hotel does still have big names, and that the theater is pleasant.
I was sad to see that the Star Trek themed lounge had been mostly dismantled. It is now a strange mix of "display" and "disturbing" as a few of the electronic gizmos are still active in the bathroom. Strange to be washing your hands and realize that there is a computer monitor behind the mirror. As the code scrolled by, I realized that it might not be so sad that the displays had been removed.
The hotel has a stop on the monorail system. I was not able to make use of this, and was sad not to see more people taking advantage. It is another item on my list of things to try.
I found (as I often do) that the service was what will stay with me as I think back on my visit. Because I was lucky enough to be with a friend who is a regular, I received service that was above and beyond. (It might also have been partly influenced by the box of manapua I delivered to the front desk. Always travel with goodies. Always!) I know my friend well, and know that the service had to have started off well, as she would never have made this hotel a "home away from home" without this being the case. Again, I look forward to my return visit, and expect that even without my friend by my side I will receive stellar service.
LVH has plenty of life left, it simply needs to make it through the difficult transition from one brand to another. I'm hoping that my next visit will be even better.Listed in: Yelp Year

This hotel definitely changed, from Las Vegas Hilton to Las Vegas Hotel and Casino. The rooms are very plain and dull. When I came here in the past before this hotel changed their name, there were extra pillows, extra toiletries...Now you have to ask for everything. Oh and by the way, there was not a hair blow dryer either! =(
Once we walked into the room, I noticed that someone must have slept on the bed or something, because the pillows were all messed up. The bed was not centered and I almost fell down sitting on the corner, since it wasn't on the bed frame. The floor had all these spots on it like they didn't wash it thoroughly. The toilet wasn't even flushed! GROSS! The vent had dust bunnies and it just dirty. The shower head was small and the water pressure is horrible! I had to wash my hair longer than I had to. The television signal was unbearable. I didn't even want to watch anything because all you could see is static and it just was not up to pare.
The casino is a bit small and the decorations aren't very attractive. I find it really random...Alien design and then a regular looking casino??? Weird.
Due to my experience here, I am sad that Hilton got taken over by this company. The experience here was not great, and I would not recommend coming here.
P.S. The only good thing about this place is the promotion. You get about $100 in savings for the different restaurants and spa center located here. Also, two free buffets for breakfast, lunch, dinner or brunch. The promotion value could be $110 for players and $130 for non-players. If you "Go Green," you also get $10 for spending for food and beverages in the hotel. In addition, the sports book here is very good! So many televisions and comfortable seats! -

I suppose if you're old and are looking for a place to stay and shop, this wouldn't be a terrible choice. Though I'm not old and always falling asleep OR looking to go shopping. It's far enough off the main strip that it's inconvenient to walk to. There is the monorail, but you gotta pony up some cash for that, and wait for the next one if you don't catch it in time.
The rooms themselves are fine, though the AC is loud as all hell. I never actually slept up there, just showered in the room we had between going out on the town (beacuse it's too loud, and because, who sleeps in Vegas?). We did some gambling downstairs, which has a nice enough casino floor. But no poker room (this is what dropped my review from 3 to 2 stars), which is annoying. So if you wanna play craps or slots or blackjack or the fake hold em they have at those little tables, you could do that. The food inside is all retardedly expensive and you might as well go down the street and find a taco bell.
The building itself is huge, theres something like 30 floors and the rooms arent arranged perfectly square, theres Y intersections in the hallways and crazy stuff like that and you will for sure get lost while looking for your room, especially if you're drunk before noon (hey, they give free drinks at those craps tables, don't judge).
If I was older, and coming in for the week or something, I might consider staying here. Or if there was 10 people willing to pitch in 15 bucks each for a place where they could shower, get dressed or black out for a bit each night (like we did, but with 3 people, everyone else was in PH, which was smart of them), I would consider the LVH. But, you might as well just get everyone to donate 25 bucks, and get something at the Venetian. -

I will not be returning to this hotel anytime soon. Stayed for one night, we received a great rate thanks to a friend but, disappointed with the service they gave us. We called to ask for a roll away and they charged us $30 extra, we forgot something in our car(parked valet) they wouldn't bring the car up front for us. We had to go down go to the valet station and wait for them to bring the car around. We asked for extra towels which, took close to an hour and they only brought us one regular size towel and a small towel.
The bed was comfortable. The room has a flat screen, no iPod dock (we brought our own just in case), the bathroom had one sink and I noticed there was no blow dyer. I didn't even bother calling and asking for one that would probably be another 1 hour, my hair would be dry by then. Maybe no resort fees means no customer service.
I would suggest staying here if you really want to save money. -

We had a great room and even though it was considered near the elevator, there was no noise to bother us. Great bed, nice TV, amazing view of the strip.
We had access to the metro rail and it was easy to get to the strip.
The hotel itself doesn't have that much to do but we were out all the time anyways so that wasn't a problem. I'd definitely stay there again. -

Stayed her for Baker to Vegas relay weekend. Room was nice enough. Bed was comfortable. Had a great view of the strip. Clean bathroom and towels.
Ate at Paradise Cafe for breakfast. Service was slow and they added an extra juice to our bill but they took it off.
Bought a Fiji water at a small bakery which was $7.45, RIP OFF and to take money out of the ATM was $5.99 charge.
Pool was nice and big and had good music playing. Service was slow with the girls taking orders around the pool. Never offered a menu or anything.
Only stayed here b/c it was the host hotel, otherwise I'd probably stay somewhere else next time. Price was decent $79 a night. -
Review from Anna V.
Tarzana, CA

I needed two rooms for Friday night with a short notice of two days, and was able to book one through http://bookit.com, with a great rate and was very pleased: rooms were spacious, clean, nice and classy. It's 3 minute drive away from the northern end of the strip and I think the value was great for the price.
However, there were several frustrations which all relate to the customer service and not the great hotel room itself, so therefore no more than 3 stars:
1) when I went to check in, I accidentally stepped to a wrong spot (a priority check in line). There were no lines for usual or priority clients. So the lady who checked me in later, asked if I am a priority member. I said no, and she made me actually go around and enter from the lay people's side.
1) because of the communication errors between http://bookit.com and LVH (the LVH system showed one day earlier arrival), the check in process took nearly 30 minutes.
2) The lady checking me in was staring her screen with frozen eyes and not caring if she put me to a hold for eternity or not. In the middle of the process I asked how long it's gonna take because I had booked a dinner and did not want to be late. She replied, 10-15 minutes. Not an apology, nothing, even though I had already been waiting for 15 minutes.
3) The check out process was painful as check in, a lot of financial confusion. Even though I had prepaid through http://bookit.com, the LVH had put a charge on my credit card, more than three times a sum (and it did not free up until 4-5 days after the trip). Also in addition to that, the lady trying to check me out gave me two bills of 447 something per room, I don't even know so big numbers. I was like "WHAAT" and when I showed my papers that I had prepaid, then she gave me another paper to make these new bills void. So I was never charged that 2x447. However, a lot of adrenaline for that money paid.
4) I wanted to pay in cash for a bottle of water ($4), because I did not want to charge it on my card (I used my European credit card for the hotel room and every transaction costs an extra money) . So the lady checking me out told me not to worry about it - I thought it was nice gesture. Sure enough, 5 days later I still saw a charge on my card. I know it's not a million dollar bill, but it was still frustrating, especially as I had asked twice to make sure that I could pay for it in cash.
5) I also sent the hotel the feedback and nobody replied. So their customer service seems to be virtually non-existent. It seems that they are targeting large crowds and making their money on the masses of visitors, not from the quality.
So the conclusion: rooms are great, but expect a lot of hassle with service. -

very impressed. First of all, disregard all the Hilton comments because they need a chance. I was there for a work convention. At first I was close to the elevator and I kept hearing the elevator moving up and down. That was my fault because I wanted to be close to the elevator. The staff immediately moved me to another room. After I complimented them they gave me 4 free drink coupons, they love me and I love them.
Thanks LVH for making my stay fun.
PS. whats up with the hotel name, its messing up my google search and how to find you guys hahaha -

4/6/2012 1 Check-in Here
It's a real bummer than LVH got dropped by the Hilton brand. Luckily we stayed at the LVH just 2 days before the Hilton Honors privileges disappears, so we were still able to get a room upgrade to a high floor in the North Tower (the nicer tower) of the hotel.
The location of LVH was always a little disappointing, being just north and east enough of the strip to make walking anywhere on the strip impossible. LVH is the last stop on the Las Vegas monorail, but it's far enough that it's faster to just hop in a cab to get to the strip. Although the hotel itself is still well-maintained on the inside, the lower prices of the LVH mean the crowd is dumpier than usual clientele of the expensive hotels on the strip. I say this because instead of seeing people in formal wear in the taxi line around dinner time, most people are in casual wear, often sporting fanny packs.
Check-in and check-out took wayyy too long. The line is parked in turnstiles like you would see at airport security or an amusement park. The buffet was also rather disappointing, but because our Hilton Honors status was still recognized, it was free, so the price was certainly right.
All in all, a solid 3-star hotel like any other business travel stay. The room upgrade definitely made our stay worth the price, but I couldn't say the same after Hilton finishes packing up and moving out, leaving LVH to fend for itself. -

This hotel has seen its better days. Its not surprising that this place is owned by the bank and is currently searching for a buyer. We attended a convention and stayed 4 nights here and everyday it seemed like something went wrong. The entire hotel staff were consistently rude. The elevators throughout the hotel were not operating correctly which caused us to wait in a 35 minute line to use the only working one in the hotel. They tried to be sneaky during check-in and give us a lower level room than what we reserved. We didn't notice this until we were inside our room and unloading our luggage. The upgraded room was supposed to come with a refrigerator and coffee pot. This room had neither. We called to verify this and we were told that the hotel was overbooked and my account would have been credited during checkout. We demanded the room in which we PAID FOR IN ADVANCE. They couldn't accommodate those requests but did move us to an upgraded room that was a different bed type than the one we reserved. If you are coming for a convention during the weekend, I highly suggest you plan ahead. We pulled up to the hotel and waited an hour in the Valet line. Once that was complete, we waited another in the check-in line.
Remember, you get what you pay for.... Cheap rates = crappy rooms & service -

The LVH - no longer the Hilton, but now The Las Vegas Hotel, has seen it's better days. We stayed for a convention/tradeshow a couple weeks ago and while it's convenient (work wise) it's nothing spectacular for the location.
There's nothing awful about it either - it's just average. There are a few decent restaurants and shops, it's farily clean, there's a good business center and overall not a bad place to stay.
There are more vibrant, lively places closer to the strip and nightlife, but if you're looking for something more quiet and perhaps a better budget value, the LVH isn't a bad option. -
Review from Mimi C.

Here's the break down of what I liked:
1) SUPER LOW COST : $19/nt (thurs) , $35 (friday) on a holiday weekend
2) NO RESORT FEE!
3) LATE CHECK OUT: Check out at 3:00pm on Sat, perfect!!
4) CREDIT: $10 credit/day if you don't want room service (clean up) -- used in for LVH dining / shopping only
5) Partial "old strip" views -- like the Riveria and other older casinos.
6) Tennis courts!
The room was actually quite clean & tidy with firm bed and soft pillows. It was nicely spruced up but did look like it was recently remodeled (Hilton to Hotel). All in all, very pleasant. Staff was very friendly and courteous with us even though there was a convention going on.
The two down sides are:
NO FREE INTERNET ($13/24 hrs or something like that)
LOCATION: Off the north end of the Strip, not walkable distance
PARKING: It's free but it's confusing how you get to the entrance (they block off certain entrances from time to time).
Other than that ... it's a ssweeeeet dealll!!! =) If I'm not a fan .. then I've obviously got my head screwed on backwards. -

The LVH is not as nice as it was when they were owned by Hilton. Since the foreclosure and buyout, you dont get Hilton points anymore and you have to pay extra to get one of the more modern rooms. The rooms still are nothing to write home about and are definately not worthy of an upcharge. I give this place a year before they go out of business. The air conditioning in the room sucked and we were moved twice.. We will not be staying here again.

I had booked through hotwire, and after reading horrible reviews of this place, I was scared. I knew from yelp to say yes and pay the $20 extra bucks a night for a room upgrade. The room was nice and big, had a king bed, couch, desk, alarm clock, a big round bathtub, and a great view of the strip. We stayed in room 138 on the 12th floor, right next to an elevator (which i had read was going to be torture because of the noise), but i barely heard a thing. The walls are pretty thin, we could hear our neighbor's music, but we just kept the TV on and it was fine. Downside there is no coffee pot in the room. We didnt use internet since it wasnt free, and we didn't eat in any of the restaurants. The bathroom was clean, overall we had a great stay.

The main reason the LVH gets an OK is price. We stayed here based on price versus other comparable rooms. Room was clean and spacious, no frills. Monorail made it so we could get back up and down the strip from just outside the lobby. Restaurants are lacking, but customer service was good all around. We had an issue with the air conditioner and it was addresses with no hassle and a guarantee that if they could not fix it, they would have a room ready when we came back from being out.

I hear that now, in order to earn gambling points, you have to bet a minimum of $25. If you're a regular LVH client and aren't a high roller, you'll notice your card isn't progressing. They still take your card and make it 'look like' they're tracking you. What's with that LVH and is this a good business strategy??? Tell me, PLEASE, that this is not true. I want you to stay open. There's just too many other casinos with better incentives out there. WHAT ARE YOU THINKING????

Okay yes we didn't check in till close to 1am, but what excuse was that when we went to our room we thought someone was still in there..I actually called my friend ( since they checked in for us and had our keys) and I asked them did you mess with our room.
Turns out cleaning service never made it to our room. I called guest services and all I was offered was another room on a smoking floor - PASS but the maid service would be right up.
Soooo 30 minutes into our room and our previous guest from Germany left behind some personal stuff, a lovely love note that we could only partially read and a bag he got from a convention and he took both the $4.00 water bottles, did I mention the bathroom had towels everywhere & a preview of what he ate before check out in the toilet.
I called guest services again since I really had to use the restroom and we did not want to leave for the night without our room being serviced. I spoke with the guest services manager and someone was there within 2 minutes, I couldn't be mad at the staff since it was not her fault, he cleaned it up as quickly as possible and was very sweet, I still tipped her ( She did her job) she also supplied us with EXTRA towels and water bottles - that we where not charged for.
In general the experience was good, the beds are comfy , it's still a decent hotel, no resort fees and we did late check out on Sunday, valet is quick & friendly.
I would stay here again! -

Never stayed here but looks like they have pretty good specials for locals. They are easy to get to, parking garage and a stop on the monorail. We usually go for the shows and Benihanna. Have reccomended to a few friends who sait it was okay.
Have had zero success gambling here (but that is why they call it gambling) and have never received a cocktail. Hopefully that will change with the name. -

I would have given this place 3 stars but it gets that fourth one because the sports book odds at this place ARE THE BEST IN THE CITY. I won an extra $100 just because the future odds of a team winning were 6-1 here versus 5-1 everywhere else at the time. (UK Wildcat basketball baby!!)

By far my favorite place to stay at in Vegas. It has a low key atmosphere without all of the distractions most places in Vegas offer. Want to learn how to play craps or pai gow poker, stop in and find a table. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. It is off the strip but close enough that you could get to the heart of Vegas. Vegas is not Vegas to me unless I stay here. Rooms have recently been renovated also.

What is going on here? It's kinda remodeled and looks pretty nice in most of the casino. But then you walk to the back and you realize they never got rid of the spacey themed area that the Hilton had for their Star Trek Experience. If you didn't know about the Star Trek thing from years ago, you are bound to walk into this bar area and go, "WTF?"
As far as food goes, it seems your choices are $30 a person (Benihana and whatever their Italian place is) or Pizza Hut Express. There are a few nice retail areas with your typical Vegas souvenirs and gifts. There are also a few dead spaces that desperately need filled with restaurants or bars.
Seems like with a little more work this would be a solid place to hang out or maybe even get a room for your Vegas Vacation. They need a few more attractions (shows, bars) to bring the crowds though. Oh, and a sign outside the building advertising where on earth you are. -

Ok, so the whole Barry Manilow thing means there's tons of old people here...big whoop, wanna fightaboutit?
My Dad keeps getting free rooms here so I've been here my whole life. It is a beautiful stay, functional, and nice. This is where I stay when on family trips only. A bit uncool and far from nightlife for my youngins-only trips. They're located even past Circus Circus and set in the back a couple blocks from the main strip. Their buffet is also pretty good. Their gift shop has really cute stuff. I was talked out of buying a custom painted wine glass. I regret it until this day. Kind of like when I was talked out of buying a cookie decorated and shaped like Frankenstein. ANIOTHER deep regret. Oh, about the Hilton, yeah. A fair stay indeed. -

We stayed here for 3 nights during New Years. With the string of not so favorable reviews, I wasn't quite sure what we'd be met with. While it wasn't high-end or palatial, you really do get a good deal here - a fast check-in, clean room, comfy bed and easy access to food options, gambling and the Strip.
My boyfriend and I are part of the Hilton Honor's program so we like to accrue points for free rooms, upgrades and rewards.
The bathrooms can use a little updating - the shower and floor tiles were light pink. Other than the uncomeliness of the bathroom fixtures, you get alll your basic amenities - flat screeen Tv, pillowtop bed, duvet, work station, hair dryer, designer toiletries - and some extra cash to spend on the tables, slots, buffets and shopping.
They have the worlds largest sportsbook, several cafes, Benihana's, TJ's Steakhouse, gift shops, fast food, daily buffets, nightly entertainment, room service and great access to the Strip via the monorail. We purchased a couple 3-day unlimited access passes for $28/person. Way cheaper than taxis!
I've stayed at many different types of hotels and, just like a good pair of shoes, it depends on what your budget, occasion and priorities are. If you're looking for a comfortable stay and want to free up some extra Vegas play money, then the Hilton is a great choice. -

My first time in LVH - Las Vegas Hotel & Casino the rooms are great; clean with a view of the South. Food prices in the hotel are a little pricey.

We booked with prepaid Las Vegas cards from Cosco. So we saved there. We also chose this hotel because of its access to the monorail to get back on the strip. Our highlight was that we were able to upgrade to a suite upon checkin. This gives you a large master bedroom with a standing shower, jet tub and a mini bar.
We didn't see much going on here for nightlife, food or gambling. So if you want a place to sleep.. away from the ruckus.. this is good for that.Comment from Katrina N. of LVH - Las Vegas Hotel & Casino 2/23/2012

It's... average. Used to be a Hilton until earlier this year.
The good:
---Check-in was quick, and our room was ready at about 10:00 a.m.
---The view is decent, considering you're not on the strip.
---Mattress was pretty comfortable.
---The rooms are fairly big, even the standard rooms.
---Most areas were very clean.
---It's right on the monorail, so getting to the strip was very easy.
---Average-ish buffet. I might have felt better about it if it had been a couple bucks cheaper, but what was there was fine. Just not a huge selection.
The bad:
---Internet access costs $14 per day, per device. In 2012? Are you kidding? Thankfully I didn't need it.
---The whole place feels dated--tons of white marble, brass and "glass" light fixtures, and a Star Trek theme in what had to be one of the sadder bars in LV.
---Really heavy smoke in the casino areas. The place needs better ventilation.
---Super flat pillows, to the point where it was actually more comfortable to sleep on my wadded-up sweatshirt. My chiropractor's going to get more money from me than the slots did.
---Our shower faucet didn't turn off all the way. I'm not talking a few drips; I'm talking an actual stream of water coming out of the faucet for four days straight. It took three calls to get anyone to come look at it, and when the "engineer" arrived, he said there was nothing he could do. Fab.
---Also, the showers are super short. I'm only 5'7" and I had to duck to get my head under the water; my 6'5" husband didn't have a prayer. No water pressure to speak of, either.
Overall: It's much less expensive than the higher-end places, and the fact that it's off the strip means it's a lot quieter. That may or may not be your thing. I appreciated being able to sleep (despite the crap pillows), so yeah, it was fine. Not sure it'll be my first choice the next time I go, but it was OK. Nothing great, nothing horrible. Just average. -

Sign up for the rewards program and get free rooms! ;)
PROS: 1) Free rooms and buffet vouchers every month.
2) Easy Parking
3) Less crowded
CONS: 1) Off the strip
2) OLD rooms, needs renovation but ehh its free lol
3) Funky mildew smell
TIP: if your booking your rooms through your rewards, make sure you bring your invitation letter cuz theyll sometimes increase your room quotes or "dont see a confirmed reservation" when its busy aka holiday seasons -_-". Also suites are connecting rooms and are NOT up to par to other hotels! -

The Las Vegas Hilton changed hands on January 2nd and became the LVH, a horrible name, but likely to be changed soon. So new, they don't have a sign. The property has been sold to Goldman-Sachs, who surely intend to flip it. A smart buyer will pick it up due to its location adjacent to the convention center (and on the monorail, making it convenient to all other strip hotels). Who knows what will happen then, it's possible they would tear it down and start over, so this review may be moot.
Renovation was still under progress as we stayed there, which implies that they will keep it up, but our room was very good, and the renos were not intrusive. When the hotel was built 40 years ago, it was the largest in the world. Not it is the 15th largest in Las Vegas. This makes me suspect a new buyer will tear it down anyway.
A few negatives; the track lights did not work, and the curtains were very hard to move. Walls were fairly thin. But the beds were great and the room was large (Grand Room). There were no bedbugs as has been reported in the past. We got a fantastic discount rate but normally in convention weeks the place is fairly pricey, you are paying for the convenience of the location.
Be aware that the "$100 in coupons book" included with the deal is worthless. You have to pay a lot more than the coupon is worth to use it, and it was good only in their very expensive and mediocre in-house restaurants.
It will be interesting to see what happens here. -

Casino #2! This was my second Casino in two weeks in a different city!
Good number of slot machines and tables, along a variety of restaurants to select from. However, not the greatest restaurants, but it does the job when you're hungry.
Overall the former "Hilton" was pretty decent. However, if you're here for a convention in the Convention Center, it is fairly convenient, depending which hall you need to go to. The LVH is adjacent to the "North Hall" of the Convention Center. However, if you need to go to "Central or South Hall," it would be more ideal to stay in the Renaissance.
They have a great selection of suite size as well. Beware, for big tradeshows, make sure to book 3-6 months ahead to reserve your ideal suite because they will book fast!! -

Can I give no stars? I could spend an hour on why this place sucks. Ok I get the fact they are connected to a convention center and will always get guests but come on. Put some $ in the Place.
Sportsbook is big and gross. I didn't want to touch anything in that place. Rikers island has cleaner facilities.
Speaking of jail I'm sure there are nicer jail cells then the room I had. Hilton gold member, whatever.
The restaurants please...went to 3 of them. Garbage and overpriced
We have another convention in Feb and the quote of the day was. "guys take a good look at this hotel, cause it will is the last time we stay here!"
Very smokey FYI1 Previous Review: Show all »
