We stayed in a Go Room for $100 per night after taxes, overlooking the Go Pool. (will discuss the Go Pool later). We stayed June 2 -6 Monday through Friday. We checked in at 10:00 a.m. but room wasn't ready. In fairness to the Flamingo, check in starts at 4:00. No line to check in. We checked back frequently with the concierge and got into our room at 1:00.

Room was clean and very cool looking. Big comfortable bed. Nice plasma TV. We had a couple of issues (broken lamp, safe didn't work). We called the desk and this was corrected within a hour. They cleaned our room very well each day.

Regular pool is a big beautiful lagoon-like pool with 4 billion lounge chairs crammed around the pool deck. In fairness again to the Flamingo, every chair in the joint was used by guests. You have to get down to the pool in the morning to reserve chairs or you will be wondering around looking for a home base. People had a lot of fun around the pool. Music played, pool volleyball etc. The bikini clad cocktail waitresses were all over the place to get you drinks. Great people watching. Nice atmosplere, but don't plan on taking a nap by this pool.

If you can splurge, rent a cabana. $250 per day, but it included a one liter bottle of boose (we chose Absolute) and all the mixers. You get a TV, private lounges, fridge, shade and private waitress service. Not that bad of a deal, if you normally enjoy a few drinks on vacation, anyway. They say that the cabanas are for 6 people, but I would say 4 is the right number.

The Go Pool is a smaller private pool surrounded by fences and trees. Much more quiet and very relaxing. Women can relax at this pool for free but men have to pay $10 per day. Women can choose to take their tops off at this pool, but everyone needs to be 21 years old to be there. We spent one day at this pool. I would say that 20% of the women chose to loose their tops. There were basically two groups of people at this pool; couples (like my wife and me) and small groups of women.

At $100 per night this was a great value, but they charge extra for things that I think could have been included. There were no coffee makers in the room, so you have to go downstairs to buy a cup of coffee. The gym cost $10 per day.

The breakfast buffet was very good. The coffee shop was OK for lunch. Those were the only meals we ate at the Flamingo.

If I can ever get myself to spend $425 per night, I might try the Wynn, but for the price, the Flamingo gives you nice rooms, a great pool scene and one of the best locations on the strip.

After reading several bad reviews on Flamingo standard rooms and how nasty the employees were ,we were pleasantly surprised. We had stayed in a "Go Room" the year before and loved it. Upon arriving we saw the check-in line go on for what seemed like a mile, I looked over and saw a line marked for gold card players with nobody there so we moved up to the front and were helped within a few moments by a very friendly employee. The room we had asked for was not available at that time so we checked our luggage went to eat and came back a couple of hours later. The room was ready and again the employee was exceptionally friendly. The room was nothing special but adequate with clean towels and sheets each day (they do not clean under the bed, I found that a little disturbing as when the bed wasn't made you could see everything left behind by others). The pool was great, along with the location. All in all we would stay there again.

Stayed here for 5 nights in a deluxe room. We checked in on the 4th July at midnight so didnt have to queue. When we got to our room we discovered that that the room hadn't been serviced. We went back to reception where we got a new room this time it was a larger room with a king size bed not a queen that we had before. So we were pretty pleased. The room was clean but the bathroom was a little dated. the view of the strip from our room was amazing with views of the bellagio fountains. The pool was ok but really crowded and found it hard to found a seat. The buffet was excellent with a wide range of food. The casino was good very clean and alot of games to choose from.
Overall the hotel was good with the staff being helpful and the location was great being in the middle of the strip.

All the Harrah's properties have a low price guarantee, so I booked our rooms through their website. When I saw a few weeks later that the price had gone down, I called their reservation department, and they were very friendly and honored the new, lower rate. One of our group arrived early and took the very inexpensive ($6.00) shuttle to the Flamingo and checked into the room. What a perfect room for a girl's get away! I can't imagine that my boyfriend would have enjoed the hot pink accents, but I'm sure the in mirror tv iin the batroom would have made up for it. The Beds were EXTREMELY comfy, as were the pillows, and I'm a bit of a bed snob. Our room was the one of the less expensive GO rooms, meaning the view was overlooking the pools rather than the Strip, but no complaints from me. The Flmingo's Strip location is terrific. Right in the middle of the Strip, and being that it is a Harrah's property, we could walk across the street to Caeser's Palace and catch a free shuttle to Rio, Harrah's, or Paris. Harrah's was also a very short walk. The room was fairly clean, although one of the queen beds in the room had a yellow stain on the comforter, and there was rust stains in the shower. We also had problems with a phone that didn't work, and a a sink that wouldn't drain, but after calling downstairs from a cell phone(remember the phone didn't work) two different individuals came up to fix both. For the price we paid, it was PERFECT. Thurs, Fri, and Sat for $453. We might splurge and try to find a nicer hotel next time, but this one certainly fit our needs. The only major downfall was the Cabana rental. Our server was Tiffany, and she was HORRIBLE! Apparenlty she gets complaints all day every day, but doesn't seem to care because she get's an automtic gratuity, which in our case was over $40 for the worst attitude and service I have ever encountered. If you book a cabana, make sure you book it with Vanessa, she is an amazing server!
