ARIA Resort & Casino

Had an amazing stay at the Aria. After a delayed flight and getting in at 2 am instead of 6pm, we were upgraded from standard strip view room to a 2 bed sky suite for no extra charge. The hotel receptionist told us they were fully booked but had this suite for us. Just a great start to our stay. The sky suites comes with perks such as access to certain pools, concierge and free refreshments and pastries. The room was worthy of 5 stars, always kept cleaned, had fridge in the room for use. Bed very comfy, no outside noise. All staff encountered throughout my stay were so welcoming and friendly.

Ref: Casino slot machine area on Aug 19, 2025 night. A coach wallet was found and returned to me an hour later after I reported to the casino's security front desk. What a great and honest employee they are. I got back all my credit cards and over $ 1K of cash in my wallet without losing any penny. Excellent security service from Aria casino well worth for my 5 stars!!

The Aria: Good/Bad My wife and I live in Florida and had our last trip to Vegas in 2019 when we lived in Indianapolis which was a shorter flight. We hadn’t planned to go back to Vegas since we started going to Biloxi. However, after seeing an ad on IG for a show, we decided to go. We had our choice of Comped rooms at all of the MGM resorts from 2 nights up to 4. We picked 3 nights at the Aria. 😍 Good: 1) The property is nice and has a very convenient location on center strip. 2) Not only are you walking distance to other hotels, the Aria is center in the MGM shuttle tram. I used it to visit the Bellagio, Cosmopolitan, Park MGM and the New York New York. Great when the outdoor temps topped 100 every day. 3) The Soaking Tub Shower combo was just as nice as others have said. I always shower after a bath so here I enjoyed a soak and got out straight to the shower. Good water pressure in both. 4) Room was clean. The control pad was easy to use for all of the lights and the curtains. 5) The on demand movies were very inexpensive. We were tired from our flight so the first night we enjoyed room service and a movie. I hit the casino later while wife was sleeping. 5) The fitness center is spectacular. Large and VERY clean with a great selection of equipment. When I say large I mean LARGE. 6) I was hesitant to use the digital check-in after reading reviews here. However it was great and I’m glad I did. Plus you can print out physical cards if you like. 7) Remember Pearl and above players get free self parking. It’s easy so have your card ready. If not just get a ticket and have your card when you leave parking. 8) Lots of friendly employees. But do want to mention Jerry who I believe works in laundry. I made a wrong turn after leaving the fitness center one morning. I thought I could use the stairs to get down to the first floor but wound up in the laundry area. I found Jerry loading a machine and asked for help. He ensured I made it out of the basement area and safely to the first floor. Again, friendly the entire time and he ensured my safety. 🤨 Bad: 1) I did read a few reviews critical of the AC. It was true for us. The AC just could not keep up with the outdoor heat so be mindful of that if you come in July or August. 2) No mini-fridge no coffee. Sure lots of hotels skip this nowadays and it doesn’t leave a good impression. There are CVS, and WalGreen stores close by in the area to buy snacks and water. Just don’t expect to have a fridge. We used a cooler we brought for that purpose. 3) The dreaded minibar is alive. so be careful not to bump it. I took our large suitcase to Walmart and bought water, a coffee maker, and snacks. I loaded it up and wheeled it right through the garage and into the room. Cheaper than buying overpriced items in the MB. 4) Parking is expensive unless you have status on your MGM Rewards card. Valet at all the Vegas properties is ridiculous at $50 a night. I remember when parking was free. With all of this said: We enjoyed our visit.

Gorgeous Hotel. Our room was beautiful with plenty of storage and a spacious bathroom with two sinks a walk in shower and a soaker tub. There are many really good restaurants to choose from within the hotel. All the public areas are attractive and well-maintained. The daily housekeeping we received in our room was impeccable. Visiting Las Vegas in August is beyond hot so my minor grievances are lack of shade/umbrellas in the pool areas, and the fact that the generous size fridge in our room was so stocked with bar items it was impossible to store even one bottle of water. I would definitely stay here again though, maybe not in summer.

Aria is fast becoming one of our favorite places to stay on the Strip in Las Vegas. First, your staff is very friendly and helpful. Secondly, your facility is clean and smells nice. Third, one can win in the casinos...too many casinos in Las Vegas are tight and don't let guests win even a little. It's a given that when people win, they'll return to play more because it happens to be somewhat rewarding.
