text: How did I miss reviewing The Hotel after our Vegas tripnnThe reasons many people book The Hotel the rooftop bar the connection to Mandalay Bay with its beach and many pools was not really our reason We just wanted a nice hotel at a good price The Hotel surely deliverednnFirst of all the room was huge We had a sitting area with a TV huge bedroom with many closets another TV and bathroom about the size of the bedroom also with a TV separate stalls and double sinks I think the entire suite was larger than a typical Boston or NYC apartment If Vegas did not have so many slot machines we really could have spent a lot of time in the room And it was very clean And I love all their spa products Mini bar was expensive and be careful to not use it for your own drinks they charge you if you do We had a misunderstanding about this but thankfully a quick phone call and they reversed the chargennThe location is at the top of the strip so it can be a hike to the other casinos But there are plenty of walkways through each of the casinos and lots of slot machines to make the journey fun The Hotel is directly connected to Mandalay Bay which has a ton of restaurants shops and again more slot machines Definitely stop at House of Blues great happy hour and fun atmospherennThe Hotel is also close the airport so I think also makes for a cheaper cab ride compared to some of the hotels Will definitely be on my return to list
