    108/2026/June Staying here for 3 days !! The porte-cochere of this hotel has been utilized as a pool above it!! Vdara is a non- gaming as well as a smoke-free hotel owned by the MGM Resorts that has a an outdoor walkway to Aria and a connected indoor walkway to Cosmopolitan and Bellagio!! Stayed at the 32nd floor of the hotel!! It is designed as a condo-style suites with a kitchenette offering cooktop, microwave, and full size fridge, a dining seating area, as well as a large spa-like bathroom!! Exceptional service from valet service , check -in as well as housekeeping staff!!

    We loved this hotel. The room was ins self comfortable and had everything we could need. We had one of the suites for this trip which we got at a great price. It's also nicely located with the connectors to the nearby hotels. Biggest issue was the tablet in the room to control some stuff and order food. It was insanely glitchy and basically don't work.

    This hotel is nice, but frustrating. Let's start with the nice. My room was pretty, it had a nice view, and it seemed to be "modern." I also enjoyed not having a casino in the building which to me made it seem more quiet as well as less smoky. And while I enjoyed my room, there were things that frustrated me. The fitness center had very limited hours. It was open from 6a - 5p. That means if you rise early or want to work out in the evening - you're not doing it in this hotel's gym. I believe you can go to the cardio center at Aria, but still. Second frustrating point was the cost. If you want to eat or drink - you're going to pay dearly. I posted a picture of an $8 Coke. You're better off hitting a grocery store instead. I used to love visiting the Las Vegas strip. It just doesn't seem worth it anymore.

    I love the feeling of this hotel something about their design their Decor the lights the selection of the furniture and the overall feeling with your first impression walking to the lobby makes you feel a sense of luxury and the views from all the rooms are amazing especially at night when the lights glow on the hotel itself and neighboring buildings

    We booked the Vdara for several nights. It's one of the few hotels without a dedicated casino. It is conveniently located to all the places we did want to go to like the Aria, Cosmopolitan, and Bellagio. They upgraded our room to a higher floor and we stayed in a very large suite. The room was beautiful with a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom. We got a great view of the Bellagio Fountains as well as other Vegas sites. Amenities were typical if a little more high end than usual.

    I highly recommend staying at this hotel when planning on staying in the strip. Everyone that works here is very helpful and kind. There's so many nice places to sit and relax. The rooms are big and have everything you would need. I've stayed at this hotel before but recently we were just visiting and they gave us a guest key to go to spa and purchase the incense. It is super clean, probably one of the cleanest and best smelling hotels in the whole city. Leo Rodriguez in the spa was super friendly and chatted with us about our stay.

    MGM, is everything ok? I've stayed at Vdara many times, and six years ago it was truly a luxury property: clean, quiet, smoke-free, with beautiful views. Based on that experience, I booked a Stay-Well Executive Corner Suite for this trip--specifically for the promised enhanced cleaning, air filtration, and higher room standards. Unfortunately, this was one of the dirtiest and most poorly maintained hotel stays I've ever had, and absolutely not what you expect from a $600/night room (about $2,000 total for three nights before tax and resort fees). We arrived a little before midnight after checking in online earlier in the day. Getting the keys was smooth--that was the last smooth part of the stay. The moment we entered the suite, it was obvious the room had not been serviced and had suffered years of heavy wear without proper maintenance: * Brownish-yellow water came out of the bathroom faucet and drained extremely slowly (I foolishly thought this was a Stay-Well Vitamin C water, only to find out later that there was a plumbing issue) * Broken light fixtures and damaged lamp. * Carpet stained, worn, and lifting. * Thick dust on surfaces and screens. * An uncapped pen left out, as if someone had been in the middle of using it. * And worst of all: hairs in the bed from multiple people, stains on the couch, and slight fecal stains left in the toilet. This was a Stay-Well room--sold on enhanced cleanliness. When I called the front desk at midnight, exhausted with young children, I was offered two options: 1. Move to a non-Stay-Well room, or 2. Wait for housekeeping. There was no apology, no sense of urgency--just two matter-of-fact options. Vdara did send a bellman with new keys, which I appreciated, but by then my child had fallen asleep and I was too tired to move. I had morning meetings and left in a rush, expecting the room to be properly serviced when I returned later in the day. When I came back around 5 PM, I went to the front desk to finish the unfinished complaint even going back to the room. I was told housekeeping had been in the room three times, "cleaning and inspecting." While I was there, coincidentally, someone else arrived to the counter next to me with the same complaint. After nearly an hour at the front desk and speaking with a manager, Vdara finally agreed to switch my room but the new room was still being cleaned, so not actually ready (fishy at 6:30 PM if you think about it). But I was happy with the resolution and went back to the room to wait. Only to find out that I had been lied to. When I returned to the room: * The bed was still unmade. * Trash was still there. * Fingerprints remained on the closet doors. * The same stains were untouched. * And the fecal stains in the toilet were still there. The only thing housekeeping appears to have done was return a minibar item my toddler had picked up. Before moving our belongings to leave Vdara for good, I took a good look as I walked through the property and noticed: * Cracked tiles and damaged wood panels in the elevator. * Stained, bubbling, and dirty hallway carpets. * Trim and finishes throughout showing heavy wear and neglect. The condition of the hotel overall confirmed that this wasn't an isolated housekeeping miss. It felt like a property that had been left behind by MGM, overshadowed maybe by the more bustling Aria and the slightly younger Cosmopolitan next door. I've had better experiences at basic motels. Vdara is far past its prime and no longer resembles the luxury, wellness-focused hotel it once was. The Stay-Well Executive Suite was nowhere near the standard marketed, and the response from staff made the situation significantly worse. I truly hope MGM re-evaluates the upkeep and management (or housekeeping) of Vdara, because in its current state, it does not deserve the "luxury" label. However, from the one-star Yelp reviews that mirror my experience that I'm just seeing now, it seems that MGM sadly, does not care.

    1. No self parking, you have to self park at Aria and walk over or take tram. A good 10mins. 2. Only valet, $40 per day 3. No casino hotel. All the above are just some things to note in case you wanted to stay here. Nothing bad about any of the above. A beautiful hotel and definitely a great break from the other hotels around the area. It's not busy and filled with smoke. It smells so nice and inviting. The walk from vdara to Aria is about 2mins max and a great way to get some steps in. As a Marriott Titanium Elite member, I was upgraded to a suite overlooking the Bellagio fountain. Make sure the Bonvoy # is noted or show it upon check in if you have status.

    I really fought to stay in this property during my last visit on the first week of December, but was met with disappointment after disappointment. The valet and bag drop-off service was by far the best thing that ever happened to this hotel. I needed to drop off my luggage because I had to pick up my parents at the airport, and it wouldn't fit in the car. And the valet service and the bellman made my transition so smooth and easy. I pulled up to the hotel, dropped off my luggage, was given a ticket, and was in and out in less than 5 minutes. A couple of things to remember: staying here, self-park is in Aria. The access to it is not where the hotel is, it is literally on the back by the crystal shops. It is quite a walk, and you need to take a tram. Vdara and Bellagio are connected, though, via a walkway, which was nice. Self-park is $20, and valet is $40. So we returned to officially check in and requested to see if we can get any upgrades, and the guy immediately said no without checking their system which is fine. We got to the room, and it was not what I expected. It was old, it had carpet stains on it, and the TV was mounted as if it were ready to fall at any time. My expectation was a bit too high for this hotel. I did appreciate the no-casino and no-smoking parts of this hotel. On the first night, I used the food and beverage credit for our hotel room. The room was booked under my stepdad's name, and when I purchased food downstairs in the little cafe, they allowed me and had no issue with it. On the last night, when we tried to use it again, my brother was suddenly denied access because the room wasn't under his name. This really annoyed me, cause how are you gonna say he can't do it when I was able to do it on the first night. I spoke to the cafe manager about this, since inconsistencies like this frustrate your guests. I also went up to the front desk again the night before our checkout to request a late checkout, nothing insane, just an extra hour, and once again, they said no. The front desk was so quick to say no, which really frustrated me. I say this because the following day, I called them to request a late check-out, and it was granted. So I don't know what's up with their front desk, but I've learned their department is quick to say no. I can only imagine the people who had to pay full price for the same room we got and would've been disappointed cause their quality is so bad. Room service is also disappointing. They had my food delivered in a bag instead of an actual plate. The photos do not reflect the actual room. I'm glad I tried it once, cause I won't be staying here again.

    bed was comfy. and outlet on both sides.

    first time at Vdara and wont be my last! Vegas had a deal to bring more tourist and well it worked. i got two night stay and each night $100 food/beverage credit. note the credit does not apply for the market retail only restaurants. little mix up at check in, but they fixed it right away. the lobby has a starbucks which is convenient. the rideshare is right outside the lobby next to small dog area which is cool. room side is big i love the extra room for dining/kitchen. you will have to call for utensil dishware. i wish they put at least one set and free coffee for the keriug machine.

    Great hotel on the strip. Love the fragrance throughout. Soft and not overbearing. Great lounges and stacks for morning matcha easy access. Our room was spacious with a mini kitchen, had an epic view of strip and nice big tub. Luxurious bag products for use. Log how it's connected to Bellagio and Aria I recommend for sure!

    Old fashioned

    We popped in for a drink at the bar here and so glad we did. It was crowded as there was a convention in town but Todd greeted us as if we were the only people at the bar and took his time taking our order and ensuring he made the drinks to our liking. One of the best old fashioned drinks I have ever had and my husband said the same about his. Definitely a nice spot to pop in and have a drink!

    TV Lounge
    Bienvenido A.

    Impressive modern architecturally designed structure. Adequately accommodating Porte Cocherre (at time of visit)Beautiful interiors. Game machines immediately as you enter next to the lobby. Right away creates that feeling and atmosphere of being in Vegas. Checked in and got to our room on the 37th floor. Kitchenette and dinette as you enter. TV lounge with couch bed next, then queen bed in sleeping area. Amazing north side partial view Las Vegas strip from our widow. Wonderful experience.

    Vdara Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - Vdara

    Have they fixed the issue with the blinds or does the sunlight still get through, making it hard to sleep?

    Not as of June 2025! Sunlight still comes through

    Does vdara have their own parking garage?

    It's shared with Aria. You can also park at the Bellagio or Cosmopolitan. Technically, Aira is considered the casino for Vdara.

    Is it pet friendly hotel?

    Yes, you can even book a room that's pet friendly

    Are the beds comfortable at vdara?

    Yes very! Not too soft

    Is there a coffee pot in the room?

    Our room did not have a coffee maker. There is a cafe in the lobby that makes coffee drinks and a Starbucks. We bring our own small k cups machine when we travel.

    Does the room with the electric cooktop / kitchen come with cookware?

    You have to ask housekeeping to bring it. You will need to be very specific and give them an exact list of everything you need, including the specific cookware items, number of dishes, flatware sets, etc. Super annoying that the rooms aren't… 

    When's the earliest check in time?

    Earliest guaranteed check-in is at 11am for a fee of $50. Standard check-in is 3pm.

    Is wifi free?

    From what I remember, it was free.

    Does hotel have balcony's?

    No, there aren't any balcony rooms, unfortunately.

    What is parking like for Vdara Hotel?

    They have valet parking and self park in the garage.

    Which Cabana has the semi private pool & misting fan?

    Sorry I was there in mid January and it was cold so no pool visit..

    Hello is the pool open at the month of february? is the pool heated? also i have kids that wants to enjoy the pool

    Typically the pools don't open officially until March, however I recommend reaching out to the guest concierge or the front desk as they will be able to provide more up to date information

    Can I have postmate or Uber eats deliver to the room?

    Only guest can go to your floor, so the answer is no, but you can meet the delivery person in the lobby..

    I'm looking for a hotel with a jacuzzi in the living room or bedroom?

    No sorry. They don't have jacuzzi in any of the rooms

    How is the breakfast buffet?

    Vdara itself does not have a breakfast buffet, but it's an easy, connected walk to Bellagio. The Bellagio's buffet is good for its value. We are so much breakfast, we did not need a lunch.

    I will be staying here next weekend and i am a nursing mom, however my baby will not be with me on this trip. I would need to store my milk. Does this hotel have refrigerators in the room or would it have to be something i request upon checkin?

    has refrigerators in all rooms.

    If I am booking the "Studio V Dog Suite" because I will be bringing my dog, will I have to pay additional fees such as pet fees or cleaning fees etc?

    Yes I believe there is a dog fee. $50 nightly stay. There's resort fees and taxes that wasn't too much. Beautiful dog friendly place and no smoking even better!

    Is breakfast included, or what options do you have if you stay at the hotel?

    Vdara has a quick service food location on the lobby level called Market Cafe which serves some light breakfast fare. There is also a Starbucks on the lobby level as well (however, it's currently closed due to COVID-19).… 

    I am thinking about reserving the Fountain View Club Lounge. Is it worth the extra 60 bucks? We dont eat much at meals. Is there enough to eat at breakfast? Is there glassware…

    I'd say for $60 bucks the view and noise isolation is worth it alone. Not sure what food is included with the Club Lounge, but the cafe in the lobby is okay for a quick bite. Not a good spot for your typical Vegas brunch though.

    Does anyone know on which floors the Panoramic Suites at Vdara have the extra half bathroom by the entrance? I have noticed that the suites have 2 different designs, the other design i believe just has a door in the kitchen to get to bathroom?

    I stayed on 5th floor (room 5.002) and we had a half bath right at the front door near the kitchen

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.

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!

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!

That pleasant scent continued into the beautifully designed lobby, which was filled with stunning (and yes, real!) red roses. I also appreciated the variety of shopping and dining options throughout the property. We especially enjoyed spending time at the Bleau Bar--it has such a great atmosphere and is a vibe all on its own. The espresso martini's and green tea shots were our daily go to drinks. My only suggestion would be to offer a small bites menu instead of just chips and nuts. One feature I really appreciated was having staff stationed at the elevators to verify that guests were actually staying at the hotel. It added an extra layer of security without being inconvenient. There were also plenty of elevators, and they were fast, so we rarely had to wait when heading to or from our room. My only real disappointment was room service. The prices were the highest I've ever seen--I was quoted over $40 for a pot of coffee! Needless to say, we decided to skip room service altogether. Overall, this is a beautiful, clean hotel and casino with friendly staff and excellent amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

    I really enjoyed my experience at The Reserve at Park MGM. I've previously stayed at Park MGM so it…read morewas interesting to try out the Reserve. 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.

    A nice stay. I…read morestayed at The Reserve at Park MGM for two nights and had a pretty good time. I was not wowed by anything in particular, but I still enjoyed my stay. The lobby where we checked in was super dark and moody. There was a lot of seating and nice decor. It was chilly in there which felt like a nice escape from the Vegas heat. It was relatively quick for us to get checked in and receive our keys. This dark and dramatic theme is carried throughout the hotel and to the guest room areas too. We were put in Rm 30-24, which we converted into an adjoining room with Suite 30-22. Our room felt small to me. The bed takes up the majority of the room with little walking space. There is a desk, flat screen TV, sofa, and small wardrobe. The closet is pretty spacious and has some robes, slippers, and a steamer. The sofa was very stiff and honestly looked a bit dingy. There were crumbs on the seat and the pillows were incredibly old and limp. I was hesitant to sit on it! The closet felt disproportionately large for the room. I would have preferred a smaller closet to have more space in the room itself. The rooms and hallways are all so dark. There is no overhead lighting, only tiny lamps throughout the room. I am personally not a fan of this as it made the room feel even smaller and claustrophobic. I understand they are trying to make it feel ambient and moody, but the way it was presented felt more like sleeping in a cave. Inside the closet was the brightest area of the hotel! If you choose to have a conjoined room, it is impractical to keep the doors open. When the adjoining doors are open, it is impossible to use the doors facing the hallway. Everything was cramped and the doors were constantly banging against each other. The bathroom was nice with a spacious shower. The water pressure was slightly better than average, but not super strong. They provided the usual amenities: shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, shower gel, cotton swabs + cotton pads, makeup remover wipes, and a shower cap. I must say, the shampoo and conditioner were spectacular. My hair felt super soft and had no frizz when it dried. It smelled very nice too. The rest of the hotel was just okay. There is not much to do besides lay at the pool and gamble. It is pretty quiet and laid-back. That being said, the casino was pretty small. I did like that it was non-smoking though so it was not suffocating to walk through it. I enjoyed the pool area. Despite it being a hot summer day, there was plenty of seating and lounge chairs available. The music the DJ was playing was really good and the pool was super chilly. This is definitely not my first choice for a Vegas hotel but I could stay here again.

    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.

This will look like to most a motel with a drive up to your room and an upstairs set of rooms. No pool . You are with in walking distance of the Four Seasons The Luxor and Mandalay Bay etc This is on Las Vegas South You can buy breakfast on site. Free coffee up in the front office with package cookies They have a mini fridge in the room. 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

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.

Or a little gambling here and there. They do have a nice strip that suppose to resemble the cobble streets of the city. With restaurants, pizza shops, and everything you think New York City has. Its a cute little wander to see what they have. Il Fornaio is a restaurant that we also frequent at this hotel. What's also good about this place, they have a section that caters to kids. The little arcade areas and the roller coasters. Not a lot of hotels have things for minors which helps when you have family that's underage. Mainly we've been popping in for the sports bar for all the sports that's been happening lately. It's a decent hotel and casino. Pretty affordable and you feel like you're getting your moneys worth. I don't know if rooms are updated as it's been years since I was last here. But they do have some nice restaurants along the cobble streets. More of a take out and find a place to sit restaurant, but pretty cool.
