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.

My husband and three children stayed in this hotel for 5 nights just over a week ago. We booked two 1 bedroom apartments, which were perfect. We didnt have adjoining rooms but they were right next door. Hotel was exceptionally clean and apartments were a great size, with a full kitchen bathroom and spa bath in the bedroom. We chose to stay here as there was no casino attached which is rare in Vegas. Free shuttle to the Wynn and also the Deuce bus picks you up outside the Hotel and stops at all the Hotels, casinos and shops all the way down the Strip for $5.00 for 24hrs. You are a fair way down the strip so we used these buses every day. Would definately stay here again. Staff were very helpful and friendly also.

On north end of strip, right across from Sahara and monorail. If looking for non-casino hotel, this is a good choice. We stayed in tower 2; room was huge with separate sitting area with couch and TV/DVD. Full kitchen, very nice and large bathroom. Bed was very comfortable with excellent pillows. Stayed on 21st floor, no city noise at all.

Only stayed two nights and only negatives were morning we were leaving, the couple next door had the mother of all fights, throwing things, screaming. Could hear quite well. If we were staying would have either asked to move our or their room. We guessed not on their honeymoom-went on for couple hours while we were getting ready to leave. Other minor point-if enjoy watching DVD's from bed, can't here as there is a TV in bedroom but only DVD player is in sitting area.

We payed $134/night which was very reasonable for such a large well-appointed room. BTW, no pressure from staff re vacation presentation. Received a call a week or so before leaving for LV, said not interested and didn't come up again.

Just returned from a long weekend in Las Vegas. I am a member of the HGVC, and have stayed at all three properties in Las Vegas that are managed by Hilton.

Let me say that (with the exception of the rude person working the front desk in the spa) every person I spoke to at this resort (and the Flamingo) was very polite and professional.

The one bedroom room was well stocked, clean and ready on time. I find that when reading others reviews . . . I have never had to wait for a room, usually receiving rooms prior to the check-in time. Also asked for a late checkout (2 hours) and was given this with no problem at all. I have NEVER had a problem with the staff. If you are an Elite Member, the have a separate lounge with a continental breakfast untill (I think) 10:30, then light snacks from 5-7 pm.

The pool was well maintained, plenty of clean towels too.

This is a nice resort to go to if you are looking to spend some time away from the crowds. There is not a lot of gambling around the resort, so if you are into that, you will either have to walk or drive. If you want to stay at a place that has a great location, pool, gambling, and close to shops try the Flamingo property.

BUT, if you want to relax by a fairly quiet pool, friendly staff, smoke free, excercise room, small store, spa services ($$$), with a location midway on the strip . . . this is a good choice.
