The STRAT Hotel, Casino & Tower
The STRAT is a value-oriented north-Strip resort built around its 1,149-foot observation tower, with remodeled rooms, two seasonal pools, casino, rotating restaurant, thrill rides, shows, and dramatic views.
About The STRAT Hotel, Casino & Tower
The STRAT stands at 2000 South Las Vegas Boulevard between the traditional Strip and the Arts District. The tower is a major landmark, but the hotel is isolated from the central Strip's dense resort cluster; the Deuce bus, rideshare, or a car is usually preferable to a long walk south. The Arts District and downtown are closer than from most Strip resorts.
The hotel has more than 2,400 rooms, including refreshed Elevate categories and suites. Renovation level, tower, view, and walking distance vary, so selecting a clearly remodeled room is worthwhile. The property is generally value-oriented rather than luxurious, and lower rates should be compared after resort and parking charges.
Two seasonal pool experiences serve different moods. Swim & Social on the eighth floor is open to families with cabanas, daybeds, food, games, and weekend DJs, while rooftop WET24 is restricted to adults and emphasizes skyline views. Hotel guests receive admission under current rules, but hours vary by day and season.
The approximately 80,000-square-foot casino offers slots, table games, a sportsbook, and lounges. The SkyPod is the signature attraction: observation decks, SkyJump, thrill rides, 108 Drinks, and the rotating Top of the World restaurant occupy levels near the top of the 1,149-foot tower. Attraction tickets are separate from the room rate.
The STRAT is best for view seekers, thrill-ride fans, budget travelers, and visitors exploring the Arts District or downtown as well as the Strip. It is less suited to luxury guests or travelers determined to walk everywhere. There is currently no full spa, and the surrounding blocks require more planning after dark than the center Strip.
