If you like to get away from the craziness of the Strip, but want to be within walking distance, we recommend the Embassy Suites. Close to the airport and across the street from the Hard Rock Casino. We stayed there on our Hilton points (for free), so I can't speak much about the cost. I would imagine it's fairly expensive.
Quiet and peaceful rooms, despite the proximity to the airport. We went to an absolutely awesome sushi place in the strip mall a few doors up from the hotel - walking distance. Kaizen Sushi - YUM! The pool at this hotel was great and uncrowded - red rocks, waterfalls, nice landscaping, big pool, quiet shaded nooks here and there. Very nice. Loved the free breakfast in the morning and free cocktails in the evening, especially since Vegas has gotten so expensive. Clean, large two room suite. There was free wireless internet in the atrium and lobby area, but you had to pay for it if you wanted to use it in your room. No biggie for us, since there were ample cocktail tables and chairs available in public areas.
When we were there, it happened to be the same week as the Country Music Awards. We soon found out that the hotel was full of families of soldiers who'd lost their lives in the Iraq war. Country Star Tim McGraw had flown them in to take part in a special song he sang at the awards. Needless to say, we met a ton of wonderful people who had a lot of sad stories to tell. And we saw Tim McGraw himself, who visited the hotel to meet the families, sign autographs, and take photos. We ended up going to the CMAs unplanned, and had a great time. This was a special, unforgettable visit.
There are two swans that live in the indoor fountain/pond in the atrium. I think their names were Elvis and Priscilla? It was a nice touch, and they didn't hiss at people. They were very well behaved, for swans.
