Thread: Vdara

  1. #1

    Vdara

    Vdara is treated like a red headed step child with it's older brother Aria. Vdara, owned by MGM, is a non-gaming hotel in Citycenter. I had the opportunity to stay there a few years back from a Priceline win of $90 a night. There is no casino, however it is a quick and easy walk over to Aria as well as Bellagio. In fact I walked in from Bellagio many times off the strip. Vdara offers quite a value for the cost. As like Cosmopolitan, Vdara was originally designed as a condo building. So the rooms are rather spacious. Here are some pics..

    And you walk out to the strip and bam you got a fountain show.



    If you want an affordable luxury experience in Vegas, give Vdara a try! Larger suites are also very affordable if you are looking to splurge.

    I agree, Vdara is worth checking out! There's no casino, and no smoking anywhere on the property, which might be a deal-breaker for some. But every room includes a kitchenette with a small fridge, stovetop, microwave, sink, and eating area -- so you can buy and prepare your own food, potentially saving significant $ for the important things (slots). You can even request that they bring you pots and pans if you really want to cook, not just warm things up.

    Even the smallest rooms are set up suite-style, with a separate sleeping area. There's a comfortable living-room-ette, and even a desk for those foolish enough to bring work to Vegas (ahem, cough cough). The bathrooms are also nice, and fairly roomy.

    The location is very convenient to Aria, Bellagio, Monte Carlo, Cosmo, and PHo. Vdara frequently offers great deals -- just get on their email list and/or check your M Life account and you can usually find a pretty good rate. It's worthwhile to try to upgrade to a "lake view" room, which gives you a view of the Bellagio fountains.

    My only quibble with Vdara is that the window shades (which are rather stylish Roman shades) let in a bit too much light around the edges. Bring a eye mask if you're plagued by this problem. Other than that, I give this property the official boots salute!

    We have had comped nights offered to us through MLife, but have never taken them up on it. That may be a nice change some time. Thanks for the pics, CPT!

    Would love to see some pix of anyone whose stayed at Mandarin Oriental. Almost booked a room there when I got an offer that seemed to be too good to be true. It turned out not to be so good

    Well fancy that, @clemi! I'm in the middle of putting together a long post about the MO, with photos, as I've stayed there a couple of times. I might not finish it today, but clearly glamorous minds think alike!
