I went to Vegas with my best friends to celebrate our 21st birthdays (b/c we're all born within the same 2 weeks.) We decided to stay at the Palms because we heard it was a great hotel for younger people. We heard right. There were lots of people in their 20s. The rooms were nice. We stayed in the old tower. The only problem was that there was not that much light in the room, so we couldn't see as well when putting on make up. The light in the bathroom was sufficient though.
We had breakfast at the hotel every day. The food is great at the 24 hour café and it’s very reasonably priced. We went to Little Buddha one night. The food was great. Also, my friend described the steak at N9NE as the best she ever had!
We didn't go to any of the clubs or lounges in the hotel itself, but we did get passes for free admission because we were staying in the hotel. The pool was nice, but it closes early, at 6pm. It’s not even sundown at that time yet :-( The pool also wasn't very deep, maybe 4 feet at most. There were red floaties for the pool and also floating tables with umbrellas. There was a great crowd by the pool. We had to wake up very early to reserve spots by the pool though. There are chairs that are reserved that you have to pay for, and lots of times, they were just empty b/c no one was paying for them. There are also cabanas you can rent for a day. One of the nights, there was a private party so they closed the pool early. But I guess that’s the price we had to pay for staying at such a popular party hotel.
Overall, we had a great time at the hotel and when I go back to Vegas, I will definitely stay at the Palms again!

Normally running around $320 per night, I found an online deal to stay at the Palms for only $55 per night. When we arrived, our room wasn't ready and we were promptly upgraded to the new Fantasy Tower. These rooms were luxurious and very nice-- running close to $400 per night. The hotel staff was very accomodating. The only problem is that this hotel is very far from the strip and is unwalkable. The hotel offers shuttles every 2 hours, but it is all luck whether or not you will catch one. A cab ride to Caesar's will cost you $10-$15 which can get quite costly. Besides nightclubs, a casino and a few restaurants, there is not much to do here . . . there is virtually no stores or attractions like many of the other hotels on the strip. Stay here if you plan to spend a majority of your time in the nightclubs (Palms has 4) or away from the action of the strip.

Five friends from all over US met at the Palms for a girls weekend out. If you want the best club scene the Palms is the place. If you want a nice suite book some where else. The price was $600 a night and the room and furniture were old and worn out. The Ghost Bar and Playboy club was fantastic. Palms is not near the strip and has a very small casino floor. I would party there again but never stay the night.

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!
