Hilton Grand Vacations Club

A confession. I am retiring and getting out of time share ownership. Working on a temporary assignment in Los Angeles and having a week to burn off, I figured it was time to see what all the clamber was about. It was worth the drive.
If you want to spend a week on the fabulous Las Vegas strip, this is the place. Ouch, is this comfortable. And there’s swank to spare. Where to start.
With the drive up. Unload your car in front of the glass lobby doors and amble up to the marble reception counter. The experience recalls Eddy Murphy in "Beverly Hills Cop."
Check out the rooms. Very nice. Kitchen with appliances better than I have back home in North Dallas. Large comfortable bed room and a decidedly upscale bath. The combined living and dining area is spacious and well appointed. Too bad we didn’t come to spend all our time in the hotel.
What can you say. It’s Hilton all the way. The photos tell the story better.
The location is ideal, as well. The Hilton is at the north end of The Strip, not actually in the city of Las Vegas. All the attractions are just a stroll away. The Riviera and Circus Circus are nearby. Everything else is involves leg work (three miles each way) or a tram ride. Get your work out and return to the comfort of the Hilton.

Nice stay, but too far from the main strip

went there on a time share offer, nice place, comfortable condo style room, but not special, could do much better further south on the strip. Since you either have to drive, or walk a very long distance to get to the nice casinos, you could do better staying off the strip. Next to Circus Circus and across from Sahara - the 2 worst condition casinos on the strip.
Excellent Family Vacation Hotel!!!

This was the best family vacation hotel I could have ever imagined! I was so surprised to find a FULL KITCHEN including washer & dryer, dishwasher, full stove, and full-size referigerator! I then found out they gave you all the detergents and soaps needed for everything as well as pots and pans! It got better the further I walked - the 32' LCD TV, the spa-sized bath-tub - Everything!
They don't have a restaurant, but they have a small deli/store (similar to a convenience store), so you have a few restaurant amenities, but if you're expecting room service with a full menu, it ain't gonna happen.
This hotel was super clean, the pool was incredible (it even had propane grills and a nice bar/grill there). I was really impressed. If you are looking for a great family place or if you have a budget and a couple others to go in on a deal with you - this is definitely the place!
This was by far the best hotel I've ever stayed in.
Worth the money but..

be ready to walk if you want to see the sights! Check in was a breeze and we were able to check in early. Room was very nice and clean.. Bed was comfortable too... The pool in the morning hours is shady but gets better by around 11am... Prices are reasonable at the pool bar and we went to the CVS and got a small cooler and loaded it up with beer and took it to the pool with us which was great. We used the Duece bus for transportation and you have to have exact change. The concierge did not tell us that so when we went back to hotel to get change the lady at the marketplace didn't seem to be too happy to open up the register unless we bought something.. That was annoying... The maid service was good except she would forget to replace all the towels so we would have to get them from her and she forgot to give us coffee one day for the room.. There were just a few minor things that annoyed us but overall the trip was great.. Oh yea, another tip. They will tell you at the airport that a cab ride to this hotel is around 20.00. It was actually 30 and we took the freeway.. Just an FYI.... The spa is nice but they added 18% tip automatically to the bill for a pedicure. My wife commented that was the most expensive pedicure she ever has gotten but she enjoyed it...
Good value

Rooms are small but clean and updated. There is a nice game room with pool table and more.
Good Value for Vegas.
