BALLY'S LAS VEGAS HOTEL & CASINO

Great location, but even better, had a comfortable stay and no outside, late night noise from others who stayed up later than me. I also appreciated the quick check-in process through the kiosks and no-worry check out process. Overall, A+

On May 3rd, Bally’s and Paris instituted a new policy where no observers or non-gamers are allowed near gaming tables. Most other places do still allow this. This is awful for couples with one gamer and momma non gamer. Don’t stay here! Don’t give them any money! They are not deserving of it. Will NEVER stay here again

Paying the extra “hotel fees” was a joke. Paying for the phone, gym and ? Whatever- that I never even used and the internet was horrible. Then, I had to track down housekeeping to get my room cleaned- because I was told that the housekeeping ended at 4:30- but they didn’t get to my room in time so I just did without? Was only able to get a bag of toiletries and towels hung on my door knob. No marijuana rules were enforced so my husband who cannot have THC in his system at all for work had to hold his breath in elevators, restaurants, hallways, etc. Room was nice, location was too.

Sadly, our trip started off rough. We booked an executive suite, and the first room was so dirty and run down we could not stay there. I mean food on the floor and stained sheets, pubes in the tub and sink, sticky stuff on the vanity...The second was much better, but maintenance is SEVERELY lacking. Stained walls, damaged fixtures, filthy windows to the point it was hard to see out of them (hint, if you market a room based on the view, have a view). I know 2020 was rough, but basic cleanliness is unpredictable. I had stayed at Bally’s 20 years ago and loved it. And there are many features where I would definitely recommend the place: the family-friendly activities, it’s location, the comfortable beds, and most of the staff was very accommodating. I miss the greenery which used to be our front, but having a CVS and Giordanos right out front is great! The gym is in good shape, too.Don’t bother with the slots or video poker; horrible payouts and little variety. Table games, though, are excellent! The two-deck blackjack and face-up pai gow are great even for beginners. Being adjacent to the Paris is, of course, a great feature, too. All in all, it is a decent buy, but not worth the huge resort fee. Either go all the way and get a top suite, or save your money and get a budget room. If you like the midrange suites, she’ll put the extra few bucks and got to the Paris; the upgraded amenities are worth it.

The only problem we had was the parking. It was way too far. It took 3-5 just to get to our room from the elevator. And then from the elevator to our car at least 10 minutes. Other than that it was great!
