Affordable. Affordable but not too clean , the hotel is located on the strip and close to the downtown area , so you can easily go to fremont or go to the big strip .

Spy Camera in effect on Beach 25 Club topless pool. Beach 25 Club topless pool doesnt need a 700 power zoom camera for security. This is a spy camera! Stay away unless you want your pictures on the Internet.

AVOID THIS HOTEL AT ALL COSTS!!. When we finally arrived to the hotel around 2 am there was a line of atleast 25 people waiting to check-in. My husband and I waited for an hour and 15 minutes just to check in! Our room was clean but that was probably the only nice thing about staying at the Stratosphere. The concierges were rude and seemed annoyed that I would dare ask a question about the area. We were not told about any shows, restaurants, or attractions and even had to wait 25 minutes to check-out EVEN THOUGH there was 1 person ahead of us. The pool area is ok but I didn't dare step into the water because it had an oily film on the top and there were several loud children playing volleyball. LEAVE YOUR KIDS AT HOME--Vegas is a disgusting, sleazy place that is NOT a good environment for children. I suggest staying at another hotel and leave your kids home!

Fun place to stay at a great deal!. If you're looking for a fun place to stay with a lot to do within your own hotel, be close to the strip, and still be in a reasonable budget, this is the place to go! You've got to ride the roller coaster at the top of the tower, overlooking the whole strip. It's a great value, has clean rooms, and still manages to be a blast!

A great stay. This is a great spot for folks going to Vegas for the action and fun. If you aren't going to spend much time in your room, or in your own hotel for that matter, you'll do well to plunk down less cash for a moderately comfortable and very clean room in this hotel. I'm looking forward to staying here again in a few weeks.

GOOD VALUE HOTEL. Our first time going to Vegas and it was a last minute wedding that landed us at the Strat. It had the best prices three weeks out and we got a deluxe room in the Premiere tower for 300 dollars (Thursday thru Sunday).

Strat is a bit far from the major areas of the strip. Expect 10-12 cab rides to areas around Venetian during peak traffic time. Monorail is another option and you can get good value passes but it puts you off two blocks from Strat, at the Sahara station. Appears to be a bad part of town but we were not bothered walking to and from that area, day or night. Also, if taking airport shuttle, expect around 14 dollars for two people each way.

The casino and hotel appear contemporary and clean. Smoke was to a minimum and the casino floor spacious. Lucky's Diner is where we ate the most...midnight specials keep steak dinners under 8 dollars a person. Chicken fried steak and egg dinner was mighty tastey and this is from a Texan! Roxy's also had very palatable comfort food.

Our room was large and clean but that's were the positives stop. The room was warm upon arrival and you can only lower thermostat to 69...stayed there entire trip and did not feel above 75 the entire time. Also, mattress was hard as a rock and our two pillows wafer thin. Were able to get more pillows via concierge but nothing could be done about temperature.

Romance Lounge, stationed right above top of the world restaurant gave the best view in Vegas...great cocktails too. Bite, the topless show, was awesome. Had acrobatics that could rank up with Cirque down the street and if you stay at the Strat...tickets are two for one...and you get a free trip to Romance Lounge for that view and drink prior to showtime!

Next time, we will opt for a hotel closer to the heart of the strip...even if it's older...we'll try just for a more comfortable bed and air conditioning.

Strat was good for a first stay and would recommend if you're on a budget. Slots were also TIGHT!

Great view. From the top, you are truly on top of the world! The rollercoasters are incredible, but this place is just a little too far from the action in Vegas. On it's own, it is a wonderful time, but its proximity to everything else is too much.

Nice place to stay. For my first time in Vegas this was a nice place to stay, rooms were average, food was good, and the Viva Las Vegas show was great.

old. This is an old hotel with a old time feel. The roller coaster was not scary. And it was a good value but the rooms were bad. You pay for what you get.

Not really on the strip. I guess techically it is located on the strip but it is so far north it seems completely disconected with the rest of the entertainment and excitment of the strip. We stayed four nights for less then $250. That's a bargin if you have ever stayed in vegas. If you dont have a car I would not recommend this hotel. It is too far from the other casinos on the strip. We had fun in the pool and at the pool party they have on certain nights. The beds are solid. Some people like that so I dont hold that against the hotel but if you like a softer bed you might want to concider somewhere else. We saw American Superstars and Bite for half price just by asking for a cupon at the front desk. The buffet and cafe were both good.
