The Strip, Las Vegas

Virgin rating

The hotel

An iconic hotel has returned, refreshed and revamped to be better than ever whilst keeping the affordable rates! Sahara Las Vegas serves as the gateway to all that Las Vegas has to offer, with over 1,650 guestrooms and suites in three distinctive glittering towers - Alexandria, Blanca, and Marra - each with a unique personality. This hotel brings style and sophistication to The Strip and gives you the opportunity to stroll over the hallowed hallways that once provided the playground for some of Hollywood’s most legendary stars - rat packs, brat packs and the Beatles. Your feet quite literally won’t touch the ground no matter how fast or how smooth you like to play things - AZILO Ultra Pool offers an immersive experience like no other, with live music and sexy Moroccan decor you'll feel miles away from the strip below. For a more chilled vibe, the rooftop Alexandria pool is perfect, relax on a daybed and get that sun kissed glow ready for a night in the casino, or enjoying delectable shared plates at Bazaar Meat.

This is one of the poorest hotel experiences I’ve ever had, and I travel for business a great deal. They’ve done zero to be accommodating, and I’m here for 25 days. Customer service is non existent; the sheets, towels and pillows are the scratchy, low budget, Walmart specials. It’s all smoke and mirrors. I highly suggest staying somewhere else.

This is one of the finest hotels that I have stayed at in Las Vegas. The hotel is new, modern, and exceptionally clean. The rooms are ample size for both working and resting.

This is one of the finest hotels that I have stayed at in Las Vegas. The hotel is new, modern, and exceptionally clean. The rooms are ample size for both working and resting. We are staying here right before the F1 races. The city is packed, and all hotels have "surge pricing" for their rooms, but not the Sahara. We are staying 6 nights for under $900. There is daily housekeeping! Most hotels give a spurious reason why they don't provide daily housekeeping. They claim it's for your privacy. Baloney. When a hotel foregoes daily housekeeping, they are bolstering their own bottom line by eliminating the expense of housekeeping. There is no resort fee! There is no parking fee! The hotel lobby is segregated from the casino. That's a bonus for people who do not want to gamble or be in a smokey casino. We have 2 very minor complaints. 1. The pillows feel like they are made of straw. 2. The TV only offers 6 channels! I feel like I'm in the 1950's! The TV's are designed for streaming and casting. If the A/C or heater were on, it would blow right on our heads. But it is not on and it is an easy fix by placing a diverter over the vent. We will return. Read less

Love this hotel. Clean and decent distance from all the hustle and bustle of the strip. I’ve stayed here about 5 times over the last few years and it just keeps getting better. The staff is amazing, bathrooms are CLEAN (iykyk), and restaurants are fantastic. I wish there was more coffee spots and restaurants because when it gets packed it packed.… Read more
