I was amazed to see all the negative reviews of the Palms. I stayed there in December and had a great time. I am a 45 yr. old disabled male and my room was the best accessible room I have ever stayed in. I did have a little trouble at check in but things were worked out and the staff was very helpful and friendly!

I am a definite foodie and I love N9ne Steakhouse and Little Buddha. Didn't go to Alize this time but it is Fantastic!

I also loved just hanging out at The Lounge and Ghostbar! Yes the Palms is geared toward a younger crowd, but I think it's more about being young at heart!

The palms is off the strip but its worth it to stay there at least once! We stayed in the fantasy tower in a king size room, unfortunatly they were doing some construction so our view was somewhat obstructed but we could see the strip from far away and the luxor and mandalay. floor to ceiling windows, flat screen tv, the coolest thing was that you could hear the tv in the bathroom thru an overhead speaker! bathrooms were clean and gorgeous! bed was amazingly comfortable and clean. services were excelled. definatly try the N9NE steakhouse! its excellent! We won over $500 on one slot machine there, slots there have great payout! they offer a free shuttle bus to ceasers on the strip which was convienent. unfortunaly we went the week before the playboy club opened, i would have loved to have seen it! will defiantly go back! If you go stay in the fantasy tower, it is all new ana amazing! wild pool scene, amazing clubs and nightlife! the perfect vacation!

The hotel is slighty off the Strip (about a 5 min drive, not bad at all, and we liked stepping away from all the hustle and bustle after a long day).

We went on weekdays during a slow week and so were able to avoid the weekend club crowd.

Our room was in the Fantasy Tower, and was VERY nice. Clean, modern, and comfortable bed, flatscreen TV. Tons of personal care items from Aveda and some Axe samples too.

We had some noisy neighbors on the floor who would stumble in late after (I'm assuming, drinking, partying, gambling) talking and laughing really loud in the hallway for long periods of time, but other than that, it was a great experience.

We got $10 in free slot play for signing up for the players club.

Didn't try the buffet, but heard mixed reviews.

My wife and I booked one of the superior rooms in the Fantasy tower,($139 per night) on Jan 1st -4th. We arrived at the hotel 4 hours before check in, and were surprised to find out our room was ready. The room was very nice, clean, very comfortable bed, plenty of room. The view was just OK. ( only able to see small part of the strip). We had some friends with us who had booked rooms in the other tower and politely asked at check in if they could move to the Fantasy tower and were allowed to at no charge( Original room was $89).

Casino
The Casino is nice but small. Good selection of games but later in the evening it can be hard to find open seats. lots of $5 tables during the day and $10 and night. Dealers are mostly friendly. My main complaint with the casino would be the lack of cocktail service. Two different times I spent over and hour at a gaming table without ever seeing a cocktail waitress. I should also report that this was the first time in a very long time that I actually won more money than I lost over the length of a trip.

Food
Lots of choices, Had dinner at Nine Steakhouse, It was above average but with all the other choices in town there is no reason to eat there again. Room service for breakfast was good.

Getting around
Cabs are a must, costs about $7 to get the the strip (Caesars) and just a few bucks more for most other hotels, I don't really mind paying this considering moving around the strip via the monorail is $6 per person for a single ride.

Overall its a nice place with a good vibe if your looking to stay in a nice room at a moderate priced place you should be happy. There is nothing big to complain about but not much to brag about either. Its a great step up form places like Tropicana, Imperial Palace,Riveara or Circus Circus, But not in the same league as MGM, Mirage ,and Mandaly Bay.

If for some reason you are the type of person who doesn't like to see beautiful women, stay far away from the Palms..............
