This hotel is an excellent hotel option for Las Vegas.
A beautiful facility at a reasonable price.
Note: The hotel price does go up, up, up during conventions due to it's location across the street from the convention center.

If you are in Las Vegas on buiness this is the place to stay.
If you are in Las Veas on pleasure this is also a good option as it is close to the monorail system. On my most recent trip I checked out early of the Flamingo (dump) and in to this hotel. Given where I came from it was like checking in and staying at a Four Seasons.

The only challenge this hotel has are dinner options.
It has one very high end restaurant ,envy, and one sandwich shop. Both are great for the money. But you have the options of spending $60. on dinner or $8.00 on dinner. If you want something else you will need to eat out of the hotel.

The club level room was very nice. The club breakfast was O.K. and very crowded.

Overall a great stay. Safe travels!

I regularly stay at Marriott hotels for business, and I think that most travelers would agree that one good thing about Marriotts is that you pretty much know what to expect before you arrive. This hotel was no exception. All of the staff was very friendly, especially the employees at the front desk and at Envy. The room was very clean, there was a separate shower and tub in the bathroom, and the room was very quiet.

Why was it important that the room was quiet? Because over the Labor Day weekend, an Anime convention was held. What did this mean? Hundreds of teenagers running around in full costume. EVERYWHERE. In the lobby. In the lounge adjacent to the bar. Outside the hotel. I had read the reviews about the pool (there is barely any sun and smokers tend to congregate there), but I didn't have a chance to check it out! The costumed guests had taken over the entire pool area as well, eliminating any opportunity for relaxation on the lower level of the hotel. Although I didn't complain (what could the staff do?), I was very surprised that management was so disorganized that they allowed this group to completely take over the first floor. It definitely reduced my enjoyment of the hotel.

That said...
PROS: Very attentative staff, free Envy signature cocktail for silver members, clean room, larger than expected fitness center, restaurant.com offers discounts for Envy, great location if you have a car and want to be off the strip.

CONS (Besides the Anime takeover): For the price, I felt that the food at Envy was only average. The pancakes and design-your-own omlette were good, but not spectacular. (For spectacular, try the lemon souffle pancakes at the Stanford Court Marriott in San Francisco!) Similarly, the burger and prawn appetizers for lunch were just alright. I didn't try their steak, but if you don't think you are getting value at breakfast and lunch, would you gamble on dinner too?

Overall this was a nice hotel and it served its purpose for having a nice room off the strip. I will likely stay there again because I am a Marriott Rewards member, the location suits my needs, and the room rate is affordable. But, I will probably call first to find out what kind of convention is scheduled before I make my next reservation.

My family (girl 15, boy 12) stayed here in one room for 3 nights in August.
We choose this hotel to be away from the casinos.
The staff were very friendly and the hotel is finished to a high standard. Taxis were called and came as soon as we wanted them.
There was nothing actually wrong with the place but I still can't bring myself to give it 5*. Maybe it was just too clinical and lacking in personality...
Pool is good because it is not in the sun - it is good to get into the shade! Bathroom good - fuffy towels! Room just big enough for a family.
Ask for a golf course-side room or you wil get a room with a view of the Convention Centre car park!

Spent 3 nigts at the Renaissance for a buisness meeting in the Copa Room. Firstly this is a warm city , as soon as you step off the plane you feel the dry heat.The hotel is close to the airport $12 taxi ride. Check in was good for me . I was on the 4th floor with a view over the city and mono rail. (No noise)The rooms are spacious , beds are great and there is an excellent power shower (no bath).
We had breakfast and lunch in our meeting room and both were excellent. Fresh coffee and tea were readily available and soft drinks in the afternoon. There is a gym in the hotel , which has the usual machines and there is an outdoor pool , which is not the best I've seen , but this is more of a buiness hotel than resort hotel,
The mono rail station is a short walk away from the hotel and the porter will get you taxi in minutes. Mono rail is best value and a chance to see the city. The hotel has chilled water available in the foyer during the day , but not at night , when I was looking for it. The bar in the hotel was never busy , whilst I was there and the staff often (annoyingly) ask if you want another drink. Las Vegas strip is full of hotels with casinos (what it is famous for) there are machines everywhere and smoking is permitted in them , so no smoke free zone. The streets are full of people offering leaflets for girls to your room and they click the cards as you pass from early evening to late.
The hotels on the strip are 5 stars and look impressive. There is a lot of high rise building work going on in the strip. Even at 11pm it is still sticky hot , so shorts are the order of dress.

Back to the hotel , there are no shops nearby and the shopping Mall is about 2 miles away. Get a taxi to it (Boulvard Mall) for Macy's , JC Penn etc.

I've seen Las Vegas and probably won't be back but if I did I would stay at this hotel. No casino or machines and smoke free!!
