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. We stayed over 4th of July weekend, and it wasn't overly crowded, the staff was super friendly, and the whole experience was amazing. Every time we stay here, it reminds me why we keep coming back.

My stay at the Fontainebleau was excellent overall, offering a luxury experience with great value…read more The property is stunning; the lobby's rose arrangements are beautiful, the casino floor is aesthetically pleasing, and the entire resort is very well-maintained. The room accommodations were a major highlight. The bed and pillow combination was the most comfortable I have ever experienced, and I really enjoyed the bathroom, which featured excellent water pressure in both the tub and shower. Dining was also a success--the street tacos, nachos, and ramen were delicious, and our breakfast of muffins, bagels, and coffee was spot on. The staff throughout the resort were amazing, and although the pool was a bit crowded, it was kept very clean. While we had a wonderful time, there were some lapses in room service that need improvement. Unfortunately, our room was not thoroughly cleaned during our stay: the table was not cleared after our room service meal, there was some trash left on the floor, and the bathtub had not been properly scrubbed. Additionally, we had to call for a refill on basic items like napkins. Despite those housekeeping oversights, we had a great time and are already planning our return to this hotel!

If you book with Amex, the additional bonuses make this well worth it. In town for a couple days, I booked my stay here with my wife, hoping for somewhere that would offer us options on-property we'd like checking out in case we didn't have time to get to the strip. This area of town isn't always fantastic, as we had less than amazing times at the Conrad, and across the street is the infamous Circus Circus which I won't get into lol. Soon as you walk in, I just love what they've done with the place. Elegant sculptures and architecture mixed with that really nice champagne and ocean blue theme really draw you in. The colors are relaxing, understated, ooze that luxury vibe. I didn't do any gambling but I liked the layout of the floor, they had a bar in the center too like a mini Chandelier Bar ala Cosmopolitan which was a nice touch. Given I booked through Amex Platinum they afford you a really nice amenity package that includes $70/day breakfast credits, a $100 towards drinks/food, wifi credits, and a pass apparently to the Poodle Room, a private bougie club with a dress code that unfortunately was closed only during the days I was there (super bummer!). We had a chance to eat at a few places, Vida, Chez Bon Bon, Komodo, all were really nice and good. Prices are a little high but this is typical in Vegas, the credits took the edge off so that promotion is a key factor in our visiting those locations. I would say though I'd love to see more restaurants open late, aside from Komodo. We were hoping to check out the washed potatoes but it closed too early. Also, while I didn't go, we had just got back from Mexico City last year and seeing Contramar opening a place up here is a fantastic addition. If they are anything like their MC location, you are in for a real treat with that. Absolutely killer seafood. The room which I got the upgrade for was stellar, we had a Panorama Suite, and it was by and large one of the best rooms I've had in Vegas, especially at the price I got it for. While the views are obviously not amazing given the location on the strip, I would definitely book that room again to host friends, etc. You do get to see the mountains which is nice at sunrise. They are a bit more secure at this facility, one thing I hadn't experienced in Vegas was the room key checks before the elevators. I understand the policy but I'd like to make special mention that when we came back from dinner the second night a taller dark skinned gentlemen, older, stopped us and was incredibly rude about it. We had no clue about the policy, and I mean I'm not stuck up at all, I'm a down to earth guy, but this guy acted like such a prick, I came back down to have a word with him about it. He had been swapped with two folks who were infinitely nicer who explained the reasoning for these checks in more detail and apologized on his behalf. Frankly, that's not good enough and management should really pull that guy off that station, you don't talk to people like that, and while it's not enough that I'd dog the property, less patient individuals definitely would. But I digress, this property hosts a lot of high end clientele, so they definitely take room security seriously which for some I assume is a plus. All in all I think this is a well kept property, with easy access to the strip, but enough local options to keep you busy during a short stay. With the added Amex bonuses, there is value to be found without a compromise to the luxury, I would definitely return here with pleasure.

I was invited here last night for the Love Island finale. I chose valet for parking my vehicle…read morebecause self parking has crazy rates that escalate after 4 hours beyond the valet rate. First reason this establishment lost a star. Second star was removed because the signage in this Casino is horrendous. There is one arrow for Stadium Swim pointing over to the right side after you've walked in that sends you to heaven. Literally points up to perhaps where the pool might be located, but it is not the path to get there. For anyone trying to get there, walk in and go to the elevator and go to 2. Then you have to take an insanely scary escalator to the top of the building. An employee said it's the tallest escalator in Vegas at 3 stories high. If you are afraid of heights at all, you'll want to request elevator access to the pool instead. The third and fourth star have been removed because my car was taken for a joy ride while I was at stadium swim. I imagine this was because it's a convertible. The man that I handed my keys to asked if I was attending the finale and he must have felt confident he'd have the time for a little fun. My tank was almost completely empty and mileage was increased. I will never park here again.

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!

Because of an unfortunate incident, which could have gone badly, it was their Management that stepped up and created a resolution that put smiles on everyone's faces. It is quite refreshing to witness an establishment that goes above expectations and truly cares about its guests! I have no hesitation of highly recommending Ellis Island Hotel and Casino.

Inside the restaurant the server greeted us warmly and was very friendly. Large fans keep the dining area cool, and there's a TV visible. I thought there might be outdoor seating, but I didn't see any; the upstairs area was closed for a private event. Our server was excellent and very attentive. We ordered chicken wings and green beans, but the side dish took a long time to arrive. When the food did come, everything was hot and fresh. The chicken wings were especially good -- I recommend the plain, well-done wings; they were spot on. The green beans, however, were disappointing. They arrived later, were soft rather than crisp, and tasted underseasoned -- maybe a little more salt would help. Overall, the place is decent. I would return, but I'm not in a hurry to go back.
