Rough Guide
"Aimed especially at business travellers, this hip modern condohotel makes a peaceful retreat at the heart of CityCenter."
Frommer's
"Although a part of CityCenter, Vdara seems to be a world away both physically and spiritually from the rest of the eye-popping visual splendor that makes up the complex." Full review
Fodor's
"This boutique (read: low-key) property is actually a hotel-condo, with beautiful independently owned suites that are arranged like efficiency apartments." Full review
Oyster
Luxury
"It's a modern, sumptuous hotel with impressive rooms (they're all suites), a lobby bar, and a decent pool." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"The interior was designed by Karim Rashid in florid gold and pink, and has a biomorphic pink settee breaking through the glass exterior wall, literally bridging inside and out." Full review
Star Service
"The all-suite 57-story Vdara, in the City Center complex on The Strip, is in the eye of the hurricane, an all-suite, smoke-free, nongaming hotel offering a sense of refuge from the clang and clamor." Full review
BlackBook
"The Vdara is one of City Center's non-gaming hotels, trading the tables for deluxe suites, jumbo conference rooms, and upscale shopping."

Rough Guide
"Despite its very unfashionable location at the far north end of the Strip, the Stratosphere has survived thanks to rock-bottom rates and a steady flow of budget tour groups."
Oyster
Mid-Range
"The 2,444-room Stratosphere Hotel and Casino... is on the northern outskirts of the Strip... but it's still a great pick for the price." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"The 2,427 guest rooms are basic but comfortable; “select” rooms contain updated amenities like marble floors and flat-screen TV’s." Full review
Time Out

Star Service
"This hotel, the northern anchor for The Strip, is hard to miss, even in this city of horizon-hogging landmarks." Full review

Accommodations are in the Premier, World and Regency towers, with those in the Premier tower being the most requested for their decor and views from high floors.
Gayot

Fodor's
"Down below, in two hotel towers, standard rooms were renovated in late 2010 and are now downright sumptuous for the price." Full review
Lonely Planet
"The bland hotel rooms are not actually inside the tallest tower west of the Mississippi River but they're usually a bargain." Full review
