Gossip Hollywood

Stay at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas or would you suggest somewhere else?

Going to Las Vegas for a Birthday celebration in August. Will be staying for a week. Have heard good things about PH. Would this be a good hotel for 2 females ages 26 & turning 25 to stay? We want a nice room, pool, casino, nightlife close by and to be in a good location. Would appreciate any feedback on this hotel and also if you would recommend any different hotels and why. Thank you in advance.

The only thing on your list that PH doesn’t really offer is a good pool. It has a pool, and the pool is okay, but it’s not great. Otherwise, I think you’ll be quite happy at PH. It attracts a young crowd, has some good places to party, and is in a good location on the strip. The prices are usually very good, and there is no resort fee at PH.

I also like Caesars and Venetian/Palazzo. They both have a lot going on in and around them, and the rooms are very nice (Venetian/Palazzo rooms are all suites). They have some of the best clubs on the strip as well. They are a bit more expensive than PH. The pool area at Caesars is great, and Venetian usually has a pretty good pool party going on.
