Rough Guide
"It’s overshadowed and outclassed by its sister property Paris next door... Its central location is a real plus."
Oyster
Mid-Range
"There's nothing exciting or glamorous about Bally's 2,814 outdated rooms, subpar restaurants, or pool with a view of the parking lot." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"This hotel has a relaxed atmosphere, an olympic-size swimming pool, and large, luxurious rooms, many with good views of the Strip."
Time Out
"A classic, Dan Tanna-esque Vega$ experience can still be had at the grande dame of the Strip's Famous Four Corners." Full review
Star Service
"Despite new dining and shopping opportunities and spruced up accommodations, prices remain low for a central address on The Strip." Full review
Gayot
"With more than 2,800 rooms and suites, this is among the world's largest resorts."
BlackBook
"The "vintage Vegas" theme isn't carried out as well as it could be, although the entrance through a neon-lined tunnel with piped-in Dean Martin hits still a nice touch."
Frommer's
"It's a stop on the monorail system, so you'll be able to go just about everywhere by foot or by swift train, and, thanks to those nice rooms, you've got someplace pleasant to return to." Full review
Fodor's
"Rooms at this old-school property were renovated in 2013, which makes the reasonably priced Bally's Resort, in the heart of the Strip, an underrated choice for a Vegas vacation." Full review
Lonely Planet
"Attracting an older crowd, this mid-Strip classic casino's reimagined Jubilee Tower rooms are popping with red." Full review

Rough Guide
"The public areas downstairs remain impressive, the pool complex is nicely laid out, and you get to watch the volcano from your bedroom window."
Frommer's
"In many ways, The Mirage invented the concept of the modern Las Vegas resort." Full review
Concierge
"It's no longer the most innovative hotel in town, but the 3,044-room property continues to reinvent itself."
Fodor's
"Several upscale restaurants, including STACK and BLT Burger, give the Mirage an impressive slate of both high-end and casual eateries." Full review

Travel + Leisure
"With an emphasis on the exotic that pervades everything from the architecture to the tasteful tropical decor, the Mirage is one of the premier hotels on the Vegas Strip." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Conveniently located in the center of the Strip, the Mirage is famous for its tropical atrium, pretty pool with cascading waterfall, and Siegfried & Roy’s white tigers."
Time Out
"With its Polynesian village decor, lush landscaping, lagoon-like pool and waterfalls, the $650-million Mirage set the standard for modern resorts when it was opened by Steve Wynn in 1989." Full review
Star Service
"This vast resort was one of the first to define Las Vegas' 21st-century aesthetic: sexy and cinematic—in this case with an erupting volcano that officially signaled The Strip's first real hotel boom." Full review

Admittedly, rooms below the 10th floor lack memorable views, so request a unit on a high floor with a view of The Strip.
Gayot
"Transforming this desert resort into a lush tropical paradise, a rainforest dominates the atrium lobby, and a 20,000-gallon aquarium captivates guests at the front desk."
BlackBook
"The Mirage's tropical paradise theme flows throughout the property, from the front entrance's volcano to the check-in desk's giant aquarium to the pool's palm-treed cabanas."
