"Ghostbar" at the Palms is one of the coolest bars to hang out at. Generally for the younger crowd, the vibe in this place is cool and eclectic...what you would expect a Vegas club to be! Located on the top floor of the "Palms" hotel/casino, you can walk outside onto the deck and see an awesome view of the strip as well as the rest of the city. For those who aren't afraid of heights, do check out the clear dance floor at the edge of the deck. It looks straight down (55 floors) to the parking lot below. Pretty cool, but you may have to fight the crowd in order to see it, or for that matter, dance on it. (It's kind of small, so only a few people can fit on it at a time). I've been to Ghostbar over 4th of July weekend, and it was pretty packed. However, I've also gone during off-peak times (September/October), and it's much easier to chill out and actually enjoy the view without having to fight the crowd. There's also a hotel photographer that walks around and takes pictures of the guests that are later posted on the Palms website. My boyfriend and I have been on the website twice. We usually go on Tuesdays, or as they call it, "Tuesdays on Top". Ghostbar is definitely a must-see in Vegas!

The bars at the Palms are top notch and, as expected, are very crowded. This is means if you plan on hitting Rain or the Ghostbar, you better arrive early or know someone or you might be in line for a couple hours. Arrive before 11pm or eat at the 9 Steakhouse and you can usually beat the crowd. The view from the Ghostbar alone is worth the wait and the cover charge. Also, this is a great place to see celebrities. It is expensive, but so are most of the nice places in Vegas.

This was not what I expected--no live music or dancing. Lots of couches and chairs and a huge outside patio. It was windy and cold but I had to go see the plexiglass deck. You are 52 stories high standing on a clear deck! There is also a Marilyn Monroe type of wind hole that will blast your skirt up! The 360 degree view was outstanding! We didn't stay long after that though.
