Best Hilton Worldwide Hotels in Nevada

Nestled in the heart of the Strip, this member of the Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas doesn't feature a casino on the property. And with only 389 guest rooms and suites, this hotel is practically a boutique compared to the Strip's monumental towers. But guests love the Waldorf Astoria's quiet and classy atmosphere and they don't mind leaving the hotel to hit the slots. The spacious rooms are particularly popular, filled with features like flat-screen TVs, soaking tubs and separate showers, and the design aesthetic highlights sleek and subtle touches. Another traveler favorite is the critically acclaimed spa, which guests say has some of the best masseuses on the Strip. You'll find the Waldorf Astoria LasVegas tucked between the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino and the Shops at Crystals shopping complex, smack dab in the middle of the Las Vegas Strip.

Located about 20 miles east of the Strip on Lake Las Vegas, Hilton Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa is a bit of a commute for those hoping to be in the heart of the Sin City party. But with access to a range of activities – like a full-service marina with boat rentals, a casino and the soothing Ravella Spa and Salon – this Hilton has plenty of pursuits to keep guests entertained. The expansive, low-key pool is a particular favorite among recent guests. Despite some mentions of worn-down accommodations, most travelers were pleased with the spacious rooms boasting signature Serenity Beds, marble bathrooms and 42-inch televisions. Most visitors agree that those looking for a quiet getaway will enjoy a stay here (some even describe the area as deserted). Plus, Honors members can earn and redeem points at this property.

A 52-story blue glass tower and a member of the Hilton family, Elara offers traditional guest rooms and one- to four-bedroom suites within walking distance of the Las Vegas Strip. The hotel's rooms include kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs and floor-to-ceiling windows with electronic automatic blinds. Recent guests praised the Strip views as seen from Elara's top floors, but complained that a drink at the on-site bar can put a dent in your wallet. If you'd rather sip on a cocktail from your own cabana, head to the Oasis Bar & Grill near the outdoor pool. For a heartier meal, you'll have to head off-site – the hotel doesn't house a formal restaurant. And if you're looking to gamble, you're going to have to take a (very short) walk up the Strip – the closest casino is Planet Hollywood.

Since its opening in 1957, this hotel on the south side of the Strip received a reputation for shabbiness and gaudiness – that is, until its 2011 renovation. The Trop's $180 million facelift brought with it a new South Beach theme, new dining establishments (the Italian restaurant Bacio, for example) and most notably, the redesigned 2-acre pool complex that offers plenty of daybeds and cabanas. Tropicana's guest rooms also received updates – recent guests noted their clean lines and classy decor with orange accents, a far cry from the tacky Tropicana of yesteryear. Rooms also feature 300-thread-count linens and white plantation shutters. The hotel's 62,011-square-foot casino is smaller than most on the Strip, but it still contains poker and roulette tables, as well as plenty of slot machines. Plus, since this hotel is part of Hilton's brand, Hilton Honors members can earn or use points here.
