We optioned for the only rooms left 2 queen beds. Disappointing. When we finally got a room, after going back to the front desk, another person told us that the rooms WERE ready; however, there was still no king bed. He said he would comp our self-parking. (I rolled my eyes privately) (jump ahead......did NOT work when we drove out of parking to 40.00.). Restaurants were wonderful. All the services there were very good. LOUD. Really LOUD throughout the hotel. Food was wonderful, but yelling to speak to table guests. If you want to be in a nightclub for 24 hours, this is your place. But...at some point, maybe in the restaurants......lower the music a bit.

We stayed here the end of July for 4 nights. The vibe of this hotel are just so Las Vegas. You really have everything you need in the building or within walking distance. If you are doing a weekend trip to Vegas and don't have a car, this is probably the spot for you. You can walk to many places on the strip from this hotel. As for the hotel itself...the casino is great. It's very spread out in my opinion. I didn't too much gambling, but I did do a lot of eating! And this place does not lack on the food variety. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert and late night dinner...they have it all. The room...Most of the rooms have a terrace balcony. Which is rare in Las Vegas. We had a fountain view of the Bellagio, but I imagine the views from the other side are just a good. The rooms are clean and very spacious. And the bed! Wow that was comfortable. We did order room service one night and not only was the service fast, but the food was amazing! And the portion size was very generous. I absolutely loved this place and we have already booked our stay again for next Summer!

While we were here this time we indulged in some ice cream and really enjoyed the hand made ice cream. It really tasted handmade with bits of real strawberries in it. Last time we were here it was a special occasion and we went all out. We walked all though the strip just to get here to ride the gondola. Boy was that fun. No, it wasn't the same as the ones in Venice (I know because I've been in Venice and ridden one of their gondolas), but you know that going in. You're in Vegas so I didn't expect the same thing. I was looking forward to the Vegas version of this classic ride and I got it. Was it over priced? Yes. At the same time you get what you pay for. A fun ride around the camels in the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas. There was supposed to be an photographer taking our picture so we can buy at the end, but his camera malfunctioned so we didn't get the shot. This was a huge disappointment as I'm all about pictures and I really wanted the opportunity to see the glamorous shot the professional photographer took and if it captured the. Moment like i had I would have bought it. Fortunately we weren't totally relaying on him. We brought our own camera and took the perfect shot with the gondolier in the background and the bridge when you come out. It was perfect. You didn't have all the busyness of Vegas in the background. I'm overly thrilled with my photo, I got exactly what I paid for a fun ride and the perfect shot to frame and remember this day. And yes, I really did frame it and it sits on my piano. As long as you know what you're paying for, it's totally worth it. And now that you've seen my shot and know that it's taken at the end of the ride when you come out from under the bridge, you can get the same shot too. Have fun and enjoy Vegas and the Venetian. Maybe even walk around the quaint streets and have some ice cream after your ride.

For the Hotel/Resort: The basic rooms here are better than the majority of other strip hotels. I personally think its top 3, even a small upgrade here gets you a very spacious room. I have stayed in the regular rooms and suites at both The Venetian and The Palazzo. The venetian rooms are more updated, but the Palazzo rooms are good too. The self parking has a lot of spaces but ingress/egress is easier at The Palazzo. However the valet parking here is faster compared to other resorts. The rideshare pickup/dropoff is good too. The casino floor is bright, clean, and good gaming variety. For the slots, I like that they have both old and new machines. I like the older "top dollar" and "run for your money" machines. I also like some of the new machines like KONG . They also have a great variety of video poker, blackjack, roulette, and craps! I have yet to play at the tables here but they have a good variety. The beverage service is good, but coverage/timing could be improved. I feel like some parts of the casino floor do not get as much service. They also have a great variety of food and restaurant options for all budgets. My personal favorite here is Estiatorio Milos. A close second would be SushiSamba. However, I have never had a bad meal here. I also recommend Sugarcane, Chica, Cote, and Smith/Wollensky. I still want to try the other options here! Overall great place to stay or check out. I always leave here feeling great!

This trip was even better because they now have $5 top-shelf drinks (yes, you read that right ). We had plenty of drinks without emptying our wallets--which is basically unheard of in Vegas.

Very disappointing experience!…read more After I checked out, I was charged hundreds of dollars incorrectly to my room. I contacted the hotel to have the charge reviewed and corrected, but the issue still has not been resolved for almost 2 weeks. The agent from customer service saying will help dispute the charge and send email confirmation had no follow up email at all. And there is no manager or anyone contacting me back to try to solve this problem. What makes this especially frustrating is that the incorrect charge happened after my stay was already over, and despite bringing it to their attention, I'm still waiting for a proper resolution. For a resort of this level, I expected much better accuracy with billing and much better customer service when a billing mistake occurs. I would strongly recommend checking your final bill carefully before leaving and keeping all your receipts and documentation. They were able to charge to my card AFTER I had closed my bill and checked out. My experience with the billing department has been extremely frustrating, and I'm very disappointed with how Fontainebleau has handled this situation.

There's a separate check-in area for The Reserve which I really liked. It was not crowded at all. Upon checkin, they gave me a coconut macaroon which was amazing! I did like that special touch. There are separate elevators going to the Reserve Rooms. However, it is still shared with some of the upper floors from Park MGM. I know that other hotels on the strip have separate elevators exclusively for separate parts of the hotel. I really enjoyed my Atelier room. It was a little bit larger than the standard room. The distinguishing factor about this room is really the bathtub in the room. However, the bathtub itself seems to be a liability for the hotel. I have to say that someone can easily slip and fall in the bathtub. Use extreme caution when using the bathtub. I loved the European french decor. The toilet was a little far away from the bed, but I suppose that is good if you are traveling with somone so when they went to the restroom, it would be less noticable (more privacy, less noise). Since they are hardwood floors, I can hear chairs being moved around from the rooms above me during my stay. I was a little bit irked. Other than that, my stay was quite enjoyable at The Reserve.

The most unassuming quaint hotel I've ever witnessed…read more It's easy to think that going to Vegas means you have to stay on The Strip--ease of transportation, proximity to the shows, and the ambiance of "the Las Vegas" experience. However, for those of us who come to Vegas often, staying at those hotels often means higher prices and headaches with navigating around the busy traffic. Having stayed at most of the larger hotels (The Luxor, The Bellagio, Encore at Wynn, Park MGM etc) I've had my fill of the dazzling lights and boisterous crowds. I do recommend you try these hotels at least a few times to truly soak in the bustle of Las Vegas night life. For me, I prefer to stay adjacent to, but not within, The Strip. This way, I can have some comfort in a quieter setting and can call an uber at any moment to meet friends along The Strip. This was the reason I chose Nirvana Hotel. Situated right next to The Luxor and The Mandalay Bay, it is both affordable and close to the attractions I come to Vegas for. The exterior is a bit off-putting at first. You aren't greeted with the pristine fountained welcome that you expect from Vegas--the wonderful precession of marble floors, the lush green plants, the ornate chandeliers. The main check-in station is inside the souvenir shop which resembles that of a run down gas station. Service is quick and the check-in process is painless. Their doors all use numbers so you don't have to worry about misplacing your card. Just don't get so drunk you forget! The room itself is very humble: queen bed, LG tv, two night stands, a small fridge, and a walk-in shower. Clean, organized, and arranged professionally. I will definitely stay here again. Connie was at the reception and welcomed me warmly. Parking is free. That's right. FREE. For your entire duration of stay.

I was gone early in the morning and was back late The minus was street noise from construction and I was there on trash day so the trash truck backing up at 5:50 Am was an early morning wake up call ( I needed to be up at that time anyways) No house keeping while for my two day stay I would be happy to stay here again

As a Vegas native, this place holds a spot in my heart. Even with the renovations in the past years…read moreit's still offers that classic "old school" Vegas vibe, but with a slightly updated cleanliness. Check-in here is almost completely automated, which I don't love, but they do have staff nearby to help with any issues. I stayed on the 16th floor of the Rush Tower;with a Strip and pool view. This was a King room and it was huge! Large king-sized bed, couch, desk area, mini-fridge, and a large bathroom. Very quiet with literally zero outside noise coming through the window. My favorite part of the Golden Nugget is their shark tank pool, but sadly the tank has a crack, so most of the sharks and fish have been removed, but the pool is still open. Their pool is small and only gets sun from about 10am until 3pm because of their new tower. On Fridays Tons of amazing food options are offered here. Everything from fine dining to fast food; the Chart House (seafood), Red (sushi), Cadillac (mexican), The Grille (24-hour diner food), and a Chick-fil-A that opened until 2am Mon - Fri. Definitely book a table at Vic & Anthony's, arguably one of Vegas' best steakhouses. Along with quick access to Fremont street and the local downtown scene, the Golden Nugget is a must stay if you've never been before.

I used to love the golden nugget. It was a clean, beautiful place that felt welcoming. I bragged…read moreabout this place and even talked my friend into staying there even though it was a bit more money. That was, unfortunately not my experience this time. The first disappointment was paying for our room. Now, you have to pay more up front just to choose your bed size or risk it for whatever they give you, like a cheap airline trying to nickel and dime you. My friend and I arrived to check in, we opted to "upgrade" to secure two beds so we really did not get "stuck" in a king bed to share. We got to the room and it looked aged and worn down (but I know it's an old hotel). But it really was not so clean. No toilet paper on the holder and only one roll on the shelf outside of the bathroom door. Hmmmm! The beds were not sharp and crisp to give the appearance of a freshly made bed. The shower was disgusting and I would never step foot in it. They were covered in mold with the paint peeling off the tub floor... So we had to walk all the way back to the front desk to change rooms. They have also started a self check in and check out kiosk system like Walmart. So to talk to a real person takes more time now. We got into our new room, which looked really nice the shower looked clean. But the shower doors were off track... we just dealt with leaving the doors open while showering. We stayed 3 nights four days. We had 4 regular pods for the Keurig machine. The friend with me drinks decaf, so we call down and ask for some decaf pods only to be informed it would cost us $25. We have 2 people for 4 mornings and we only have 4 coffees. They did give us 4 waters per day, which I really loved and appreciated but sorry, no coffee for one person and too bad if your body can't handle caffeine. I guess I should be grateful they gave us any coffee and didn't force me to pay $10 a cup at Starbucks, but come on... $8.25 for a coffee pod is outrageous. I will definitely try a different hotel on my next visit to Vegas downtown.

The best home base on the Strip -- we tested the theory and it won…read more Usually we bounce all over Vegas. This trip we tried something different: stay at New York-New York and actually live there for the trip. Verdict: this property is the best home-base value on the Strip, and it starts with location. You're dead center on the south end -- MGM Grand, Park MGM, and the Cosmo area are an easy walk, the free tram runs to Excalibur/Luxor/Mandalay Bay, and anything farther is a quick, cheap ride. You're never far from anything, and unlike some mega-resorts, the property itself is human-scaled -- well-laid-out casino floor, everything reachable without the ten-mile indoor marathon march. The food and bar lineup actually delivers on the New York theme: good Italian, a great Irish pub, American, Chinese, a dueling piano bar (a blast), live traditional Irish music, and a range of prices from bargain to splurge so you can mix fancy and casual night to night. The move that makes the whole property sing: most of the bars run happy hour 2-6 PM -- four hours of options every single day. Nine Fine Irishmen's happy hour is the best deal in Las Vegas, full stop ($7 small plates that eat like dinner, $5 Guinness, and Tony the bartender who's worth the visit alone). Affordable base, premium location, real variety, and staff who seem to like working there. We'll be back -- probably without leaving the property much, again, on purpose.
