Stratosphere Las Vegas By Kelly Beck on Jan 13, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I visited Las Vegas For my first time about 6 weeks ago. We stayed in The Stratosphere Hotel and casino. I have been a lot of places and this had to be one of the best hotels I have ever been in. The staff was so friendly and the atmosphere was so much fun. The casino itself was great. There is nothing better than the view from the Tower in the hotel. It is the second tallest structure west of the Mississippi and the beauty is amazing. I will be returning in a few months and have no desire to stay anywhere else. It's also very affordable place to stay!

One of the other things I liked about the hotel is that it is centrally located. Although I wouldn't recommend it we were able to walk down to fremont street in about 45 mins. I wouldn't recommend it because it really is too far to walk. We took the bus up to the strip and that only took 5 minutes or so. It seems to be right in the middle. The nice thing about that is you don't have to contend with all the craziness of las vegas.
