The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas

I had a very enjoyable stay at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Check-in was smooth and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, despite booking through American Express Fine Hotels + Resorts, I didn’t receive a complimentary room upgrade because the hotel was fully booked. An upgrade would have only been available for an additional charge. However, I was still very happy with my Junior Suite on a higher floor. It featured a spacious balcony with fantastic views of the Las Vegas Strip. Another great benefit was that the American Express hotel credit could be used at almost all of the restaurants within the resort, making it easy to take full advantage of the perk. The pool areas were also beautiful and provided a great place to relax. The only thing to keep in mind is that The Cosmopolitan is a very large resort. It’s expansive, busy, and attracts a lot of guests, so you should be prepared for a lively atmosphere and longer walks throughout the property. If you don’t mind that, it’s an excellent place to stay in Las Vegas.

Staying at the Cosmopolitan was by far my best Vegas experience I have ever had out of serval dozen trips to The Strip. The room and the beds were clean and amazing. By far the softest bed I’ve had in Vegas. We stayed in one of the fountain view rooms that overlooked the Bellagio Fountains and it was just amazing. By far the best view in Las Vegas, especially at night! The Casino had a great vibe and the restaurant options downstairs were really good as well. Overall, I can say I have a new favorite casino on The Strip.

The definition of you get what you pay for. This is the nicest hotel on the strip, and gives a modern elegance, feels very Vegas and upscale, and is a vibe on its own. The food here is all fantastic. China poblano, scarpetta, secret pizza, the wicked spoon buffet... All great and memorable. We stayed here two years in a row now, and will continue to come back. Mini fridge in the room is a huge perk. Rooms are very nice and large, bathrooms are excellent. We have had two great stays so far. I used the express check in on my phone whilewhile waiting in line to check in, and there was an option to upgrade to a wrap around terrace suite for 70 more a day. I jumped on it and we were very happy. It felt like a worthy splurge for our yearly trip without kids.
