This is the best casino ever! It's so horribly tacky and had ME written all over it. The Celebration Lounge was just horrible (and I mean that with the most respect ever) the drinks were good and strong and cheap and the bartender was wearing cop glasses and look liked he just walked out of an episode of CHiPS.......if you're looking for superb upscale (which I do NOT) then this is not the place for you. It's so cheap and ridiculous.

This is the second place I ever stayed. It was so dead on the day after Thanksgiving that they upgraded me from a Garden Room (the bottom one) to the Paradise Tower (the best). Having said that, the room was nice but designed in the 70's and then never upgraded.The second time I stayed here, it was in the Island Tower. The room itself was ok but walking through a long tunnel being bombarded by people selling junk out of kiosks was annoying as shit.The gaming here is slightly above average to me, just people trying to have fun. Plenty of $5 blackjack tables, I noticed and the Comedy Shop was a good deal and very funny. Three good comedians and one drink for $20, a true steal in Vegas.The place is so tacky that it actually becomes cool. You can tell this place was pretty awesome in its day. Unfortunately, that day was in 1970.
I really want to stay in the renovated rooms.

The Trop is one of my standby favorites. They are constantly sending me calendars with discounted room rates, and even without those, you can almost always find a good rate online. Their location is pretty good -- you're a short walk via elevated walkways to MGM, NYNY and Excalibur (which has a free monorail to Luxor and Mandalay Bay).My wife and I really dig the kitschy old garden rooms. Some have big bathtubs and we get a kick out of the bamboo-framed mirrors on the ceilings. Another advantage to the back tower is that the elevator takes you directly to the pool. The pool area is large and the indoor portion of it stays open 24 hours.

Freaking awesome, renovated rooms. Pleasant staff. Good pool. Very nice new rooms.

First place I ever stayed in Vegas, back when it was so old school, it was bordering on a dump. No longer. The renovations have transformed the Trop back into a premier property on the strip. I stayed there last summer (2010) during the renovations and was bowled over. I can't wait to return this summer to see the final product.

I am impressed with the changes. Only saw the Casino, but WOW the transformation from 2009. I want to stay there soon.

Love what they've done to the place. Too bad they're having an identity crisis with the night clubs and shit.

Value for the dollar = great

Sure stirs up some old ghosts here. Remember that time I was the best man at my wife's first wedding?! Oh, what a time that was! Mirrors on the ceiling, Le Pink Champagne all iced up and shit. Still creeps her out to go back there, but who can blame her?

The new and improved Tropicana is now one of the places I may tend to stay at whenever I am in town. The new rooms have a comfortable bed and more storage space than most of the hotels on the Strip. The casino now has a bright look where it used to look like the back part of an alley. The dining situation could stand some improvement but overall the new look is impressive.

Stayed one night, was blown away with the transformation of everything. Customer Service was excellent and everything was brand new. The room's were great and felt really at home staying at the Tropicana.

I love the new Tropicana. I love that it is still affordable. I love that it still has a link to it's Vegas history (unlike Flamingo where none of the original buildings remain and it's basically a caricature of itself). I love the Tiffany ceiling over the pit. I love that they still pay 3/2 on blackjack. I love almost everything about this place.

Great place to play now that they cleaned it up.

Wow, great renovations and tons of good memories. Maybe you have to be of a certain age to "get it"...Worth a tour.
» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Good value (25$) for a room on the strip. Be sure you get a room in the paradise tower, as the isalnd tower is old, and the garden rooms have been here since this joint opened in the 50s. (Pssst...20$ trick works here!) Nice 24 hour restaurant, decent buffet and coffee shop, and a pretty damn nice casino too. Overall well worth the measely price paid.

I stayed at the Trop back in 2005, and to say that my visit was underwhelming would be apropos. However, thanks to VT I see that they've gotten a facelift and I'm eager to check it out. There's a distinct "old Vegas" appeal to the Trop, which makes a visit there worthwhile. Plus, the location is pretty sweet. You're right near the airport and nestled amongst the MGM, Excalibur, Luxor, and New York New York, with Mandalay Bay a stone's throw away. I'm looking forward to poking my head in there come April, and I'll update this forum with my findings.

Gorgeous remodel, super clean, white and bright! I'm glad they saved the old girl she was on her last leg but now has life again. Nostalgia factor is second only to Caesars. Under rated pool. Needs better resto's.

I stayed here after the renovation and for the price it was amazing. The staff was awesome and drinks were flowing at the tables.
» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

The renovations are nice (Thanks again to the Trop and VT for the two free nights.), but I just didn't get a good vibe from the place. One of the pluses for it is location. Quick walk to the MGM Grand (where I did the bulk of my gambling the two nights I stayed at the Trop) and a short cab ride to the airport. The food options didn't pique my interests and the Las Vegas Mob Experience was a bit meh (granted I was not seeing the finished project and the exhibit was in previews) but was worth the $5.

The remodel is amazing! From rags to riches, the old Dame is mighty purrrrty again. I've stayed in all of their nicest rooms and had a blast and have always been treated well, but now management has decided to stick their heads up their ass and charge WAY too much money for their suites...I won't be back until they come back to Earth. And Pizza at the Pellegrino cafe is Barf city.

THE 1ST TIME, 10 YEARS AGO IT WAS DISGUSTING. THEY JUST RENOVATED IT AND I WAS VERY IMPRESSED. GREAT JOB REMODELING ROOMS. AND THE OUTSIDE , AROUND THE POOL WAS BEAUTIFUL, NICE JOB.

A sentimental choice, although to date I'm still visiting it.

ITS crap! But you feel less guilty starting the bathroom on fire..

I love the location and room rates, I usually don't go to vegas to hang in a room so its great, don't care much for the Casino or restaurants. but a place to scope room rates for bargains.

Fun casino....I look forward to seeing the renovations.

Leaps and bounds better than my first visits. That place had to be one of the more disgusting properties on the strip. They have really done a lot with the place. Still not on par with a lot of it's other mid-market properties, I'd place it somewhere behind NY NY and Monte Carlo in that regard. We didn't like the location, we had never stayed anywhere that far south on the strip and it seemed like we would spend half our day trying to get to and from mid-strip. I thinkt they are still trying to figure things out and aren't sure about who they are marketing to.

The Mob experience thing is horrible, avoid at all cost. Would love to see what a new owner could do with the place.

Yuck, yuck, yuck. The mainstay of my best friend's parents (who got me a great rate there once-- thanks!), this property was tired and downright dirty. I got free tickets to the burlesque show at the time, and it was... interesting. Lofty pretensions with seemingly little real directorial sense to back it up. (I get the impression it may have fallen from greatness.) The only bonus might be the mirror above the bed in a faux-bamboo frame, if only my wife had been with me for that trip.

I still find the lowrise hotel buildings very charming with their balconies and dating back to the 50's and 60's. The Island tower might be worth $10 a nigh extra if you want to take a bath for two as those rooms have big tubs, and mirrors over the beds! But the strip tower (is it the Tiffany?) has really ugly furnishings and no big tub, no mirrors, no balconies. I think the only thing the LV Trop has going for it is anything that remains that is tacky. I hope they keep up the maintenance on the pool area, which of course is this place's one strong point.
