The hotel

An all-studio suite tower slap bang in the middle of The Strip, Elara, a Hilton Grand Vacations Club offers Las Vegas visitors the height of luxury. Seamlessly connected to Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino, there is literally no end of entertainment, including fabulous Broadway-style shows in sumptuous theatre surrounds, lively bars serving delicious cocktails and sophisticated nightclubs pumping music out into the early hours! It’s also connected to the Miracle Mile shopping complex, good news indeed for those in need of retail therapy. Take time out to relax beside the swimming pool and order a drink from the bar & grill. There’s also a 24-hour state-of-the-art fitness centre to keep the body beautiful as well as the Planet Hollywood Spa by Mandara offering treatments such as a Japanese silk booster facial and Hawaiian Wave 4-handed massage! In-between swimming, gaming and relaxing, there are plenty of restaurants nearby to visit serving everything from gourmet sandwiches to delectable Japanese cuisine. Just a short walk from the hotel, Koi Las Vegas is very trendy indeed or head to Strip House for juicy steaks and delectable deserts including a 24-layer chocolate cake – well, this aint called Sin City for nothing!

We loved the ability to reserve an owners cabana and the service was excellent. Luis, the pool concierge was fantastic. He had a great and welcoming personality. The servers were also great. Lexi, Shana, and Zani were amazing. They all had fantastic personalities and took great care of our needs. The food at the pool was really good too. We love this resort and will definitely be back!

Not really a friendly place and the clientele think they are the bees knees!

Not really a friendly place and the clientele think they are the bees knees! When I had been in my room a few minutes I received a call saying my welcome basket was waiting for me at the concierge desk- later I found out it was just a discount card for a local restaurant and the hard sell to go on a time share tour! I wasn’t happy to be deceived like this. I could say a lot more but to be honest I just can’t be bothered as I won’t be coming back again! The accommodation is really very basic and does not warrant the high room rates. Final insult was housekeeping knocking on my door at 9.47am telling my check out was 10am! I already knew this and find this check out time more evidence of the very greedy nature of this establishment. Read less

This is an excellent property. Checked in with a very nice lady who explained all the features and benefits of this Hilton Grand Vacation. There is a beautiful pool which can be seen from the reception area and a Starbucks coffee where the $25 resort fee allows you 2 free coffees each from a choice of 3 varieties. I tried them all and was impressed with the quality. This property has a low resort fee compared to other hotels in Vegas with some being in excess of $60 and don’t really offer the guests any of value and is just a way of generating more money for the hotel. At least at the Elara you do at least get the 2 complementary coffee’s. The studio’s are quite large with a microwave and dishwasher. The air conditioning is excellent and the WiFi good but it does disconnect if you not active viewing websites or reading emails or checking your social media accounts. The TV is large and has smart options and you can chrome cast from your phone or computer which is excellent. The picture quality is good too. The bed is comfortable and I slept well each night. The bathroom is large and has a shaving mirror. The shower water pressure is excellent and my only disappointment is the shower is over a bath which is quite high and I found it difficult to climb over the bath and there are no hand rails which means you need to be careful. I personally would prefer a walk in shower. The toilet flush is very powerful so you’re not going to block the toilet in the Elara. Great View of Las Vegas too if you’re on a high floor and it’s not restricted by other buildings which is going to a problem with a few hotels on the strip when the Hard Rock hotel is completed as it will block the views from a few properties on the strip. The hotel has charger points next to the bed to charge your phone and USB options too. It does however in my opinion needs to be upgraded to the industry standard USB-C. I can highly recommend the Elara and my only slight negative is the 10am check out and even for Hilton Diamond members they didn’t want to offer a late check out. The hotel also is quite expensive as it’s very popular. Read less

The resort location is perfect on the strip. You're within close walking distance to all of the main attractions.

We have just arrived home from visiting Las Vegas. We stayed in this hotel for 7 days. On arrival we paid the room tax and the deposit which is fine. We had to charge a few things to the room as they didn’t take cash. In total this came to $329. So far they have reserved over $1500 on our card.

We have just arrived home from visiting Las Vegas. We stayed in this hotel for 7 days. On arrival we paid the room tax and the deposit which is fine. We had to charge a few things to the room as they didn’t take cash. In total this came to $329. So far they have reserved over $1500 on our card. We visited the reception a few times who assured us these were mistakes and would go back on in 2 days. None have gone off yet and some have now finalised. In trying to contact the reception the gentleman hung up on us. The manager on reception when we left said they gave lots of complaints about this. Stay somewhere else and save ourselves the trouble. If someone from elara sees this please contact us urgently. To rectify this Read less
