We visited Las Vegas for the first time October '08. Being new members of the Hilton Grand Vacations Club, I read a lot of reviews before choosing the Hilton Grand Vac. on the strip. We stayed 2 nights at the Hilton Grand Vac. Club on the other property and found it a little to far away from things. Glad we had our week stay on the strip. Found the room on the 7th floor to be very comfortable and satisfactory. However, a drawer front on the cabinet where the TV was sitting in the living room fell off twice on my husband's foot! Ouch!!
Staff at this place were very helpful & great to deal with.
The room was very quiet to sleep in. We had a one bedroom. The kitchen we equipped but to find groceries any where near by was a challenge. We walked & traveled by the Duce bus so there wasn't much available for grocery shopping. The market on the first floor was way over priced! What there were for groceries were priced ridiculously high. On that note, we ate out most of the time. The best meal we had was at the Wynn buffet. The selection was fantastic...make sure you save room for desert!
The only negative about the room was there was little closet space. No place to hang your jacket as you come in except the bedroom closet.
We got "sucked in" to a 2 hour session listening to a time share presentation...wanting us to purchase more points. There should be a limit to how many times a person has to say NO. It was a waste of 2.5 hours of precious vacation time. We were given $100 towards show tickets in exchange. Not worth it!
Shopping...well...go to the outlet mall - Las Vegas Premium Outlets. The best!
We did the Grand Canyon helicopter tour. It was amazing. Very expensive but well worth it. We landed in the canyon & had a picnic & champagne lunch. The company we used was Papillon. Dan was our pilot. Great trip! Would highly recommend it. What a memory!!!
Negative about Vegas: People standing on sidewalks flicking business cards at you advertising girls! Also, you couldn't walk anywhere without being harassed to go listen to a timeshare session & they didn't want to take NO!
Over all, our trip was a great one! Someday, I would go back.
