I wish I could go back to the 60s to see this in its hey day.Just knowing the Dean Martin played here deserves top marks from me.

OK THE RIV IS OLD AND A LITTLE RUN DOWN, BUT HEY THE HISTORY OF THIS PLACE AND THE FEEL ARE ONE OF KIND! THE PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS GREAT AND YOU CAN JUST KICK BACK GAMBLE AND RELAX.

Adequate rooms ...nice to see the remodel though. A step in the right direction. Still has the feel of an older casino (which I like) Always friendly dealers and waitresses. Seems to always a seat open at most tables... still has $5 min on tables.Mostly a older crowd hangout.

Old school and proud of it. Stayed here my first trip to Vegas in 2004. Room suited me fine, as I don't care as long as the bed is comfy. If the new ownership wants to keep the Old Vegas vibe, they need to restore the front to the old look. The buffet here was o.k., the coffeeshop was better IMHO.

Site where a majortiy Martin Scoresse's movie Casino was filmed.. If you havent see this movie yet, You dont love Las Vegas and you know nothing..

It's not so dumpy like it used to be. New renovated sports book is very nice.

Stayed here for a wedding, haven't been back since they re-did the rooms. Pretty standard. Didn't care for the location.

Anti Favorite - this place sucks!

So many dreams unfulfilled. This was my baby. I risked everything on her.

Stayed at the Strat on previous trip and really enjoyed myself. Would definitely stay again.

Great for the money but the location was an issue

The food at Top of the World was just okay, but the view is breathtaking. Only spent about 45 minutes in the casino-put $20 in a 25 cent Wheel of Fortune and cashed out with $374. Might stop by this joint again sometime.

Inexpensive and cheap.... what can I say...Best view of Vegas from the tower

Bite is Hilarious!

Neat place. Very friendly. Good slots!

Nice hotel, good casino, just a little out of the way of everything still. Maybe once the strip grows, it'll do better, but I'd stay there again

I haven't had any great experiences at the Stratosphere, but I haven't had any bad ones either. The Stupak legend and that big honkin' tower make it noteworthy.

Boring and far from everything, the Stratosphere's only redeeming qualities are the revolving restaurant that gives you a view from the end of the strip, and the thrill rides at the top of the tower. If only they'd build that roller coaster that descends straight down from the top, I mist just go back for an hour or two.

Now that I've stayed here in May 2008 just for the sake of saying that I've stayed here, I can now assure everyone who asks me that if it's north of Sahara Avenue, it doesn't qualify as being the "strip." The rooms are very standard at best, and you're not close to much...the best thing being the "Luv-It Frozen Custard" stand. If you can spend a few more bucks, stay further south on the strip. If you can't, stay on Fremont Street.
