Best Boutique Hotels in Las Vegas

First off, we should note that staying at SKYLOFTS could set you back thousands of dollars. Still, recent travelers have really enjoyed the pampering they received in the ultra-luxurious, loft-style rooms at this Vegas hotel. The journey begins with car service in a limousine from the airport to the private SKYLOFT entrance at the MGM Grand on the Strip. After check-in, you'll ride a private elevator to your spacious suite at the top of the building. And you'll find plenty of extras, like a personal concierge, an infinity spa tub, a heated towel rack and an in-loft espresso machine. You'll even have access to an in-room, touch-screen universal remote that controls everything from the lighting to the room's temperature. What's more, some lofts come equipped a private plunge pool or a full kitchen, if you're so inclined. Recent visitors raved about their stays in the accommodations, citing the excellent staff members and the pampering amenities as reasons to return.

This swanky boutique hotel – tucked inside Caesars Palace – impresses guests with its primo location and sophisticated decor that blends contemporary American accents with intricate Japanese elements. Guest rooms are appointed with Japanese art pieces and feature a gold and purple color scheme, as well as minibars, iPad docking stations and free access to the 5,000-square-foot fitness center. Staying here also grants VIP access to OMNIA nightclub and priority reservations for the famed Nobuyuki Matsuhisa-helmed Nobu restaurant and lounge. Though most guests praise the hotel for its Zen-like atmosphere and sense of seclusion amid the Strip's riotous party atmosphere, some bemoan the steep room rates. That said, if you're willing to splurge, previous visitors assure you won't be disappointed with your accommodations, describing the beds as extremely comfortable. And if you're still craving an extra dose of relaxation, visit the property's Qua Baths & Spa.

Formerly THE hotel at Mandalay Bay, the 1,117-room Delano Las Vegas is a trendy, all-suite hotel located at the southern end of the Las Vegas Strip. The Delano features a few restaurants, two upscale bars and 3940 Coffee and Tea. Many guests laud the Delano's spacious rooms, which feature floor-to-ceiling windows, minibars and MALIN+GOETZ bath amenities. The Delano only has a few on-site amenities, including the BATHHOUSE Spa, which offers 12 treatment rooms, and the Lounge, which boasts expansive windows overlooking the Strip from the top floor of the hotel. And while this Las Vegas retreat noticeably lacks a casino, guests of the Delano can walk to the connected Mandalay Bay, which features a casino, an 11-acre complex that contains pools, a shark aquarium and an artificial beach. With its laid-back vibes, the Delano is a calmer respite from the overstimulation found in other upscale hotels and resorts along the Las Vegas Strip.

Although some visitors consider The Cromwell small by Las Vegas standards, this Caesars-affiliated property – which is located on The Strip – does not disappoint. Gamblers enjoy the 440 slot machines and 66 table games that occupy the hotel's 40,000-square-foot casino, while partygoers rave about the late-night lounges and clubs, including the 65,000-square-foot Drai's Beachclub-Nightclub. But there are plenty of tamer offerings for guests, too. You can take in some sun by The Cromwell's beach-themed rooftop pool or, if you're a shopaholic, wander into the 1940s-esque Curios; you can find everything from chess piece candles and gin and tonic-scented mustache wax to top hats and Ray Ban sunglasses. And should you crave a bite, stop by GIADA, the on-site Italian eatery that's celebrity chef Giada de Laurentiis' first restaurant. Previous diners recommended the chicken Marsala meatballs and the lemon potatoes, although they also cautioned that the portions are small and prices are high. When you're ready for bed, make your way back to your Parisian-inspired digs. Recent travelers appreciated the trendy decor and top-notch amenities like hardwood floors, rain showers, pillow-top mattresses and 55-inch flat-screen TVs.
