Rough Guide
"Although it’s still considered among the hippest casinos in town... The Palms is in many respects just a presentable but rather dull locals’ casino."
Concierge
"To enjoy the Palms, you must be a fan of "the scene." If you're not, you will despise this property."
Fodor's
"Rooms at the Palms are large, opulent, and modern, with some unusual amenities for Las Vegas, such as beds with ultra-firm mattresses, duvets, and ample minibars." Full review

For a tamer Palms experience, ask for a room at Palms Place, which has a private pool and separate restaurant.

Request an upper floor to score a Strip view.

Star Service
"The modern styling in the large casino, hardwood floors instead of carpeting, and exposed duct work in lieu of chandeliers make a fitting backdrop to the latest in casino technology." Full review

Request rooms above the seventh floor to avoid nightclub noise.
