Concierge "The Station Casinos chain is popular with locals and with visitors who are here strictly to gamble—comps come quickly and the staff prides itself on remembering regulars."
Fodor's "Way out on the western edge of the Las Vegas suburbs, this swanky golden-age Vegas throwback is a delight." Full review

"This hip resort, located half an hour from the Strip, boasts an impressive pool, notable spa, multiplex movie theater, and 72-lane bowling alley." Full review
Time Out "This billion-dollar operation pays homage to the classic resort architecture of the early 1950s and '60s as well as the natural landscape that surrounds it." Full review
Star Service "This hotel has the kind of off-center appeal that makes Lake Las Vegas' resorts so popular, though Red Rock focuses on a younger, livelier demographic." Full review
Gayot "Billed as both a retreat and a center of entertainment, this exciting resort located in Summerlin, Nevada (just ten miles west of the Las Vegas Strip) opened to rave reviews in 2006."
BlackBook "The Red Rock Mountains offer a surprisingly different backdrop for Las Vegas hospitality than the high-rise complexes of the Strip."
Zagat4.5

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.
Lonely Planet "Playpen suites are tailored for bachelor and bachelorette parties, or escape to the high-rise Palms Place."
i
Request an upper floor to score a Strip view.
DK Eyewitness "Palms’ 40-story Fantasy Tower has stunning views of Las Vegas. Its Playboy Club is also a big draw."
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
i
Request rooms above the seventh floor to avoid nightclub noise.
Gayot "The creator of and brains behind this resort, the impeccable George Maloof, wanted a hip place near the Strip, for every type of play and every style of player."
BlackBook "This flashy, Miami-style casino outpost for the twentysomething generation has been the backdrop of numerous reality shows ranging from MTV's Real World to The Surreal Life and Inked."
Zagat4.2
"This "beautiful" high-rise all-suiter caters to a young, hip crowd with "beautiful", "spacious" accommodations featuring hardwood and marble floors."
The Telegraph8.0
"Follow all the party people to this slick, high-rise casino resort with scintillating nightlife and a hot summer pool scene." Full review
