Rough Guide
"The location is great... but the actual accommodation varies enormously."
Frommer's
"Renovations and expansions over the years aren't going to make Siegel's "real class joint" cause you to forget about, say, the rooms at The Palazzo, but they have freshened the joint up." Full review
Fodor's
"This elaborately landscaped, pink, classic-era resort with a 15-acre pool complex is still one of the best in town choices in town." Full review
i
Be sure to check out the on-site wildlife area, complete with a koi pond and, naturally, a flamboyance of flamingoes.
Travel + Leisure
"Flamingo Las Vegas, which was originally owned by Bugsy Siegel in 1946, has exuberantly remade itself and become the hippest hotel on the Strip." Full review
Time Out
"The Flamingo is the Strip's sleeping giant. Its location at the heart of the action couldn't be better; and thanks to its beginnings under Bugsy Siegel, its name is virtually legendary." Full review
Star Service
"This is in an undeniably excellent location, and...it is at least one of the best bargains on The Strip." Full review
Gayot
"The 3,642 rooms and suites are nicely appointed and a great value in these price ranges."

"There's pretty much nothing left of the original casino that Bugsy Siegel built at the birth of Vegas, the one where Elvis won his race car at the beginning of Viva Las Vegas."
Lonely Planet
"Legendary Miami-style casino hotel; middle Strip, next to the new Linq complex; white mod furnishings; waterslides and lagoons make it extra family-friendly." Full review

"A window has opened up for another hotel to slip in and battle for the crown of "Most Luxurious" in Vegas. The Mandarin Oriental seems more than up for the fight." Full review
Concierge
"Executive Club rooms have vast views of the Strip and the meteorlike new Crystals shopping complex."
Fodor's
"As a brand, Mandarin Oriental pledges to provide everything for the business traveler, and the Vegas property certainly delivers on that promise." Full review
Jetsetter
"Serene CityCenter stay that adds a dose of sophistication to the Strip, with two pools, a spa and haute French fare." Full review
Star Service
"Mandarin Oriental puts the new City Center development in a good light." Full review

Or perhaps more accurately, it can be described as American with a French twist, as guests choose their sauces to go with the beef from Nebraska and Idaho, or lobster from Maine.
Michelin Guide
"This newly opened (2009) CityCenter oasis features gourmet dining, spa services, spacious guest rooms and a fitness center offering Pilates and yoga classes."
Gayot
"Located in the new CityCenter development, this LEED Gold-certified property resides in a 47-story non-gaming building in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip."

Afar Magazine
"One of the rare, non-casino luxury hotels that provide an almost residence-like respite within steps of all that makes Las Vegas Las Vegas." Full review
