We always stay at Harrahs in Vegas.. we have been to most and now we only stay at Harrahs because of the size.., it is not huge like Cesar’s , Planet Hollywood, Venetian and many others. We are in our 70’s and hate walking a mile to get to our rooms… we are VIP so our hosts always comps us a suite which are really nice and huge! I love the location, we go right out front and get a cab to anywhere and it is just a short distance… Love Gordon Ramsey’s French Onion Soup and Walk Ons has a wonderful breakfast menu! We have no trouble finding good food to eat but we do like to go to Cesar’s Bacchanal buffet and Joe’s Crab .. Last summer I rented a pool cabana so my whole family could spend a pool day together… it was great, food, good music and a really nice pool. We have always gotten excellent service at Harrahs… all this makes us want to keep going back..
We stayed there last weekend. Valet parking is not free. It was $40/night. Early check in was $60. A smoking room was extra $20/night. I have only been charged for these things at the higher end resorts. I did not expect this from an average resort. The elevators in the mountain tower sounded like they were falling apart. And the a/c barely worked. I was very disappointed.
Nothing wrong with Harrah's at all. I have stayed there numerous times, and the rooms are nice and clean, a nice location, great casino and sportsbook, and as far as food is concerned, there certainly is enough places to eat. The Fulton Food Court has plenty of seating, with pizza, salads, sandwiches, breakfast food, sushi, noodle bar, etc. Gordan Ramsey Kitchen, Walk Ons, Ruth Chriss Steakhouse and Pizza Cake, give you enough places to choose from. Also, you are right next door to plenty of fast food choices, Outback, Denny's, and the whole Linq Promenade is steps away, where you have so many more choices, like Chayo Mexican Restaurant, Gordon Ramsey Fish and Chips, In & Out Burger, Flour & Barley, Yardhouse, etc. No need to complain about places to eat, since that's just being picky. There is nothing wrong with Harrah's at all. People just love to complain about anything these days. They want a budget friendly hotel, yet want to have the best of everything. It doesn't work that way. Go stay inCosmo, Venetian or the Wynn, and you will have plenty of expensive restaurants to choose from.
The food hall is basically a ghost town. The only food options down there during my stay were Bobby's Burgers and the pizza place. No salads, no sushi, no noodle bar. All appeared to be permanently closed. Nobody said it needs to have the best of everything, but for a 2,500+ room budget hotel to offer only one casual sit-down restaurant (Walk-Ons) for dinner, that's pretty poor.
I see those half door showers and I cant believe no one in Vegas hasn't faked a slip and fall in one of those bathrooms and sued forcing the casinos to give us fool size doors. LOL
For sure..They have that really stupid half glass in the South Tower rooms in Laughlin..No matter how much you try(in my opinion you shouldn't have to)the floor gets wet..Truly a halfbaked design indeed.
I come from Scotland normally twice a year stayed in a lot of properties my fav is paris but i last stayed at harrahs i enjoyed it and its very central won a couple of jackpots so i luv the casino although im a non smoker xxxx
Vegas inflation is going sky high because I just stayed at harrahs September 2022 and my avg room rate was $160 with the resort fees I think my Sunday was comped to bring the avg down. This price is too high for harrahs
We've been to Vegas twice since Covid restrictions have eased up. Room rates are insanely high and I feel as if this will be the new norm because a) people will pay it and b) with more and more entertainment being in Vegas (Golden Knights, Formula 1, my husband's football ugh, can't say it) it's the "justification" for charging SO much.
Love your post. "Ugh on the football" lol. I'm a hockey fan and fortunately my wife is also. We're Canadians and fly to Vegas once a year. We've stayed in almost every hotel on the strip and now only look for the deals that include our top 5 favorites. Either way you slice it, it's getting expensive, but also it's a nice get away for a few days.
I haven't been able to stay there yet, however, it's exactly where l'd like to be. It's in the middle of all the action, near the good shopping stuff and discount eateries, snacks and goodies. It looks like a huge gambling floor with cheap eats to a nice sit down burger place I'd certainly stay as my room is really for sleeping, well, so is my pool chair. By the way, it's a pretty nice pool. There are plenty of cool drinks, cool stuff to do right here in the neighborhood.
I'm staying there for a weekend in late June because I plan on attending the Gimme Gimme Disco event at the Brooklyn Bowl and I wanted a hotel within walking distance of the event. Are they open after 2:00 AM for people who like to dance all night?
Great Review, Great Vlog! I agree, I’m not a fan of Harrahs automated check-in, especially if you hold status with Caesars as their “VIP” check in is never open. No tub! I’m tired of the “faux” marble sinks as they look tacky. It’s embarrassing that Harrahs is getting that price point even for a Saturday as Caesar’s Palace is worse. Harrahs is NOT worth $220 per night at anytime. Thanks for a great honest review.
Enjoyed the video,you didn't mention that ALL rooms at Harrahs have been renovated in the last two years,so I do give them credit for that. As far as pricing is concerned that's all determined by supply and demand for the night(s) your staying. I've seen Harrahs as low as $42 used per night. Cheers ya'll.
Unfortunately Las Vegas has become a real ripoff. Poor service, mediocre rooms, fees out the wazoo. I’m surprised they don’t have a surcharge for breathing 😮
Harrahs is literally just a "walkthrough" casino for me, I have only stopped in once and that was to get a slice of Pizza Cake which was just okay and I have never even gambled there before either. Its just never caught my eye and had anything that stood out other than it was on the way to another hotel/casino.
I've stayed at Harrahs many times over the past 30 years , and find that there is a vast difference in the rooms. But the deal breaker was the shower design! The morons who ordered/designed/installed them should be condemned to use them eternally. To my utter amazement,lots of other resorts are installing similar designs (but with curtains). So hotels can save a few bucks by buying less glass/plastic - and all the flooded floors make housekeepers jobs a bit easier. Its kinda sad that the first thing I now check at any hotel is if the shower is enclosed! 21:24
Hey i just booked a cabana room @ harrah’s extremely cheap, R they new? It looks like they converted pool view rooms into “cabanas rooms” like at the Linq.. haven’t seen anyone review those rooms
Thanks for the great review! Our last visit to Harrah's was much like your visit to the Flamingo...we thought you were generous with your rating for Harrah's. Filthy, dirty and never again. However, we also liked Walk Ins for breakfast, it was one of the best meals we had that trip.
thanks for the great review. I am glad I am only spending one night there on my upcoming trip. Fortunately for me I have Caesars status so I am paying 28 dollars for a night and no resort fees.
I jumped on the MGM Resorts Reward Program Bandwagon in December 2021. In December 2022 I reached Platinum Tier Status, and I love it. The non-smoking NoMad on top of the non-smoking Park MGM Hotel & Casino is very quiet and peaceful late at night. The NoMad is my place to “stay and play” while I'm visiting Las Vegas at least 3 times a year. The way the “Point System” is set up in Vegas it makes no sense for me to spend my money anywhere but MGM Resort Destinations. I'm staying at the Beau Rivage in just 36 days and I can't wait.
If you’re staying at Harrah’s you’re most likely on a lower budget which is cool but if that is the case, you want a fridge for sure. I guess in a pinch you could get a cheap cooler and fill it with ice. A single guy on a solo trip would be ok, but you would never get my wife to stay in that room LOL. Good video, thanks.
I like Harrahs for the cheap price and location..but the lack of a fridge and that death trap called a shower (without a door- so the floor becomes a skating rink after every shower) are deal breakers. Ballys/Horseshoe is an even better location, roughly same price- but you get a fridge and a proper shower. more dining options at ballys/paris as well.
We stayed at Harrah's a few years ago. Sometimes a good deal isn't really a good deal. It's in need of an overhaul or a wrecking ball. We won't go back.
@@ShowMeVegas For us it was the outdated lobby and the very low ceilings which seemed to trap in all the smoke. We typically shoot for New York New York as the ceilings are much much higher and the hotel seems to be able to filter the smoke very quickly and the price is usually reasonable. Combine that with all the shops and places to eat and it has become our favorite hotel. By accident we discovered that Park MGM is smoke free. Park MGM is not our favorite, but we now go out of our way to gamble there in a smoke free environment.
I just wanted to see how the rooms are and judging by the video, they look fine for the price. I don't care much about the amenities and restaurants since I'll spend most of my time off property anyways.
They actually gave you coffee! 😮 We just got back yesterday and we stayed at Harrahs the first thing we noticed was the price of food 🙀 luckily there were other options outside the hotel within walking distance. The next day we went to an Albertsons cause we weren’t supplied with coffee and after paying $11 for a single Muscle Milk I got a four pack at Albertsons. We tried NOT to eat in the hotel as much as possible. The next morning we went to go make coffee and the keurig was BROKEN 😠 Called the front twice and no one showed up to replace it I got fed up and got changed ran downstairs to buy coffee 😢 I had to go to the front desk and complain which resulted us getting a new keurig. The day before we checked out housekeeping never showed up to clean or make the beds 😠 needless to say me and my mom were not happy with our stay and we won’t be staying there again. It’s sad cause harrahs is one of the iconic hotels and casinos with a rich history on the Vegas strip.
Had a blast watching him for almost an hour. He started outside the bar and wound up eventually making his way inside to the front of the stage... Thanks for watching!
ceasars really need sort out their east side strip hotels jordan not sure they will but omg they are ruining the experience for everyone and also the strip for that matter its not what people come to vegas for,im not a fussy person i stayed at riviera and enjoyed it but flamingo harrahs ect.. i would not even go in unless i wanted to sit down for a bit and from what i see hear a lot of people feel the same but ceasars just dont care,it seems they only clean their signature property across the street. anyways we both like what mgm offer and they will get our custom
This hotel used to be the Holiday Inn. First learned how to gamble here. The bakery there at the start is new. The coffee maker in the room is good. Been on a lot on cruise ships. It is considered a fire hazard to have a coffee maker in the room. Are food halls becoming more prevalent at hotels now? When you gamble what is your game of choice? Piano bars are nice. Most cruise ships have them. Nice Sports Book. Ah, your game of choice must be BJ. I don't like those types of shows either. Did stay at the Mirage twice once shortly after it opened and the second time the next year. I always bring slippers. Maybe I should stay at the Trump Hotel.
Food halls are becoming the norm, and in many cases are replacing the old buffets. We tend to play blackjack more than any other casino game. Thanks for watching!
@@ShowMeVegas That is good to know that the food halls are replacing many of the buffets. Blackjack, an even money game unless you get BJ, split, or double down. House wins more hands. At least you don't play Roulette.
Thin walls and noise, doors slamming was my gripe when I stayed there. Not a favorite place to stay. Only thing I ever enjoyed there was the Oyster Bar. Miss that place!
I LIKE THE HARRAH’S CASINO AND THE LOCATION IS COOL BUT THE SCUMBAG FACTOR OUTSIDE WITH ALL THE HOMELESS,BUSKERS, PORN CARD PEOPLE AND WEED SMOKERS MAKES IT TOO NASTY FOR ME AND I’M A DOWNTOWN LAS VEGAS GUY SO I’M USED TO THAT.
Based on the fact that you could not check-in until after 4pm, do you know if they will hold your suitcase for you until your room is ready? I will be arriving around noon and do not want to roll a full size piece of luggage around.
Yes. I checked my suitcase with the bell desk around noon and had it delivered to my room after check in. The bell desk is always complimentary, although a tip is appropriate. Thanks for watching!
The incidental is just a hold that is released upon checkout. To tell you the truth I don’t have a clue how much it was. Other than the resort fee there are no fees to be aware of unless you’ll be parking a car there. Thanks for watching!
@@amogha111 It's included with a $45 resort fee The total is $94+ a night . Resort fee are subject to change . Points will reduce of eliminate resort fees
Stayed there for 6 nights, 2 1/2 weeks ago for the first week of the NCAA Tournament. Biggest convention Vegas has (every 3 years) was also that week for some stupid reason. For me, location is the only reason to stay at Harrah's. And the generous drink tickets in the sports book. We have friends that always stay at Mirage for March Madness, so that's the main reason Harrah's wins out. Seriously looking to switch to Planet Hollywood/Paris/Horseshoe location in the future though as I agree with all of your points about the property. Walk Ons sure seems pricey, but food looks good. If we had some local MGM properties in Kansas City, I'd consider switching loyalty. I'm all for staying downtown for at least part of the trip in the future.
You're looking at Horseshoe/Paris/PH....I haven't officially stayed at PH, but consider this: If you're a Blackjack player, your best option is Horseshoe, not even a debate. Paris and PH have some pretty high limit tables that will pay 3-2 BJ. Typical wkend will require $100 to get 3-2 at Paris/PH. Horseshoe will be $50. If you play lower limits, then it's likely irrelevant between the 3, and would likely point you to downtown. Anyway, Paris is a great option if you want something with an upscale feel without a high scale price. Plus, as you know, the Paris and Horseshoe are linked so you get two for one If you enjoy poker, PH has a room (at least did in the past), but Horseshoe has a new poker room that is amazing. It's truly a great room.
Harrah’s is one of the many aging hotels in Vegas. It’s not what it used to be in the old days. Food is pricey now and the slots have been replaced with real rip off slots. I didn’t know what I was doing last time. Harrah’s has become scuzzy with a lower grade clientele I noticed a couple years ago September 2021 when last there.
Exactly what I was thinking the whole time. It's a place to lay my head. I don't pay for rooms or resort fees so I don't give a shit. Don't do entertainment and as for food. Like u said dead center of the strip... withing 200ft there's a 1000 restaurants take ur pick.
Never have stayed there but spent some time there. We did watch Tape Face and that was fun but I agree , not a fan of the casino and there are much better properties to stay. Thanks for the video 👍
My sister and i stayed at Harrah's for years and years. She was Diamond Status, but once they closed the Complimentary Diamond Lounges, and they were skimpimg on Rewards, we changed our visits. The showers are terribly dangerous, which designer thought of that concept. The Casino used to be fun, with it so busy, now its no mans land...dead! They got rid of Buck, Chip and ? The famous sculpture that was photographed by everyone. Yes, it was tacky but isn't that Vegas? This new corporation is sucking the life out of their Hotels and Casinos. NO!! I don't want to check in by a kiosk, what kind of welcome is that to customers that are staying there, gambling and eating at outrageous famous chefs restaurants that aren't actually in the kitchens!! Check ins are later, paying for early check in. If my room is empty, why can't i use it, is someone napping in the bed before!? No fridge, no coffee maker, for a room that comes in at $200.00+. Really. We stay in Summerlin now at a Resort. Stop making unnecessary changes that have absolutely no improvement.
Great video. Seems like Caesars properties are really going downhill. Seems like the money goes to the stock price and celebrity chefs, not maintenance, staff or salaries. MGM is doing only mildly better.
looks remodeled from what I can tell since last time I stayed there a number of years back. but the overall hotel is a dump beyond the location around midstrip. if you're all about burgers, hotdogs, chicken strips type of junk food eater, this place will give you orgasmic toe cramps however.
Not sure I understand the first complaint, but when making these videos we've got to cut the price analysis off somewhere. The detail was perhaps already too long as it was. Harrah's website is readily available for checking the rate for any room at any time. Thanks for watching.
$40 resort fee for 1 night in that room? What exactly does that cover? The pool was closed…maybe Wi-Fi and a lame fitness center? I haven’t been to Vegas since 2016. I thought that it was fairly overpriced and low on value then. Wow
I haven't been to a harrah casino in a year...I'm a 7 star..wtf it is..I'm not giving them my money regardless if they want to give me free room or Dubai trip
Another haunted house! But if you want to go to the dirtiest room with a the nerve to ask for a resort fee try buffalo bills at the state line. Be sure to bring rat traps and haunted music
The food looks tv dinner quality. Crazy how prices have quadrupled since Covid which was unavoidable. It was one big bait and switch and tech has taken over humankind in the process.
Fulton Food Hall has some very good options ......the Asian choices are by far better than "Food Court" type of food. I did however, have a TERRIBLE breakfast experience at an establishment that is no longer there......ordered food, waiter NEVER came back, so I walked out.....wasted 45 mins of my time.
That hotel room is a little beat up. The housekeeping is questionable. I would have been such a pain in the butt about it for that price. That’s higher then average, the rates you showed. No way, Caesers are supposed to be economy. Not paying that for harrahs.
Just got back from there, worst hotel ever and I've been to some dives. The drop-off/pick-up area smelled like strong sewage. room was dirty. housekeeping didn't show the first two days. no in-room coffee, the TV didn't work (at first), the room keys quit working, the website is dishonest and the staff just seem ignorant (not stupid, they were nice, just didn't know anything), one racist event... from an African American girl, go figure. no shower door, no microwave, noisy all night long. had friends come up for a stay and they said never again. I felt bad cause I picked the place. I don't know where I'd recommend, but this place... ewwww.
Overpriced, dirty, inhospitable rooms that don't get serviced unless you specifically ask. Bed-bugs are a problem at a lot of Caesars properties including this one. Staff expect a tip for getting the Wifi, that you are forced to pay for through the resort fee, working in your room. Empty, lifeless casino with tramps and homeless people wandering around looking for money. Overpriced food hall with staff who want a tip simply for ringing your purchases up on the till. I will never stay there again, or at any other Caesars property for that matter. They are taking the absolute piss out of their customers these days, and are going downhill fast. Dreadful value for money at every turn.
I used to rely on Harrah’s for a cheap stay in town on the strip. Not anymore…Hell, I remember when it was that Mardi Gras themed place.
It’s not Mardi Gras themed anymore? I loved that big jester over the entrance!
We always stay at Harrahs in Vegas.. we have been to most and now we only stay at Harrahs because of the size.., it is not huge like Cesar’s , Planet Hollywood, Venetian and many others.

Last summer I rented a pool cabana so my whole family could spend a pool day together… it was great, food, good music and a really nice pool.
We have always gotten excellent service at Harrahs… all this makes us want to keep going back..
Awesome review! Thank you for doing this video!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
OMG the vanity alone would make me book a room there.
You want a good breakfast go over to the Pantry at the Mirage. The Smash brown potatoes are a meal in itself

If you don't gamble, you'll get nothing.
Good idea!

I liked my stay at the Harrah’s, only problem I had was the lack of dining options
They have that food hall, the buffet, the McDonald's/panda outside, white castle, the Linq, that alley where the ferris wheel is,

I just wanted to see how the rooms are and judging by the video, they look fine for the price. I don't care much about the amenities and restaurants since I'll spend most of my time off property anyways.
20 trips to Vegas over the years and I can honestly say I've been in Harrah's once or twice. Harrah's in Atlantic City is a vastly better property.
They actually gave you coffee! 😮 We just got back yesterday and we stayed at Harrahs the first thing we noticed was the price of food 🙀 luckily there were other options outside the hotel within walking distance. The next day we went to an Albertsons cause we weren’t supplied with coffee and after paying $11 for a single Muscle Milk I got a four pack at Albertsons. We tried NOT to eat in the hotel as much as possible. The next morning we went to go make coffee and the keurig was BROKEN 😠 Called the front twice and no one showed up to replace it I got fed up and got changed ran downstairs to buy coffee 😢 I had to go to the front desk and complain which resulted us getting a new keurig. The day before we checked out housekeeping never showed up to clean or make the beds 😠 needless to say me and my mom were not happy with our stay and we won’t be staying there again. It’s sad cause harrahs is one of the iconic hotels and casinos with a rich history on the Vegas strip.
Great overview brother of the property man and those drinks come in handy especially when it's hot as hell outside lol Keep up the great work!
Much appreciated J!
The person dancing at the piano bar. FaF!
Had a blast watching him for almost an hour. He started outside the bar and wound up eventually making his way inside to the front of the stage... Thanks for watching!
That pink champion hoody is clean!
Appreciate it!
It is not right that you had to pay a resort fee and the pool was closed it should at least be discounted or no resort fee at all
I would of walked across the street and down to the mall to eat, there is Magiano's Little Italy. Very good Italian and much cheaper.
Ive stayed the last time I was there back in 2019, stayed for a week
ceasars really need sort out their east side strip hotels jordan not sure they will but omg they are ruining the experience for everyone and also the strip for that matter its not what people come to vegas for,im not a fussy person i stayed at riviera and enjoyed it but flamingo harrahs ect.. i would not even go in unless i wanted to sit down for a bit and from what i see hear a lot of people feel the same but ceasars just dont care,it seems they only clean their signature property across the street. anyways we both like what mgm offer and they will get our custom
lol,same thing we had,half a shower door missing and the shower head doesn't move
I stayed at harrah's they charged me 20 dollars a day for parking plus resort fees all added up i could have stayed at a nice hotel
This hotel used to be the Holiday Inn. First learned how to gamble here. The bakery there at the start is new. The coffee maker in the room is good. Been on a lot on cruise ships. It is considered a fire hazard to have a coffee maker in the room. Are food halls becoming more prevalent at hotels now? When you gamble what is your game of choice? Piano bars are nice. Most cruise ships have them. Nice Sports Book. Ah, your game of choice must be BJ. I don't like those types of shows either. Did stay at the Mirage twice once shortly after it opened and the second time the next year. I always bring slippers. Maybe I should stay at the Trump Hotel.
Food halls are becoming the norm, and in many cases are replacing the old buffets. We tend to play blackjack more than any other casino game. Thanks for watching!
@@ShowMeVegas That is good to know that the food halls are replacing many of the buffets. Blackjack, an even money game unless you get BJ, split, or double down. House wins more hands. At least you don't play Roulette.
Walk on was pretty great in my opinion 👌
Thin walls and noise, doors slamming was my gripe when I stayed there. Not a favorite place to stay. Only thing I ever enjoyed there was the Oyster Bar. Miss that place!
I LIKE THE HARRAH’S CASINO AND THE LOCATION IS COOL BUT THE SCUMBAG FACTOR OUTSIDE WITH ALL THE HOMELESS,BUSKERS, PORN CARD PEOPLE AND WEED SMOKERS MAKES IT TOO NASTY FOR ME AND I’M A DOWNTOWN LAS VEGAS GUY SO I’M USED TO THAT.
If you have caesars diamond status, you can get that same room for $9 with no resort fee
I would think if you've earned Caesars Diamond status you'd have no trouble getting the room comped!
i was actually looking at booking at Harrahs last week but saw Ceasars started their semi annual sale so was able to swap to Planet Hollywood.
Planet Hollywood is definitely better, with the lone exception being location. Thanks for watching!
They’ve got cucaracgas there!
Based on the fact that you could not check-in until after 4pm, do you know if they will hold your suitcase for you until your room is ready? I will be arriving around noon and do not want to roll a full size piece of luggage around.
Yes. I checked my suitcase with the bell desk around noon and had it delivered to my room after check in. The bell desk is always complimentary, although a tip is appropriate. Thanks for watching!
@@ShowMeVegas Thanks for the information!
Other than resort fees, what are the incidental fees like and are there any other hidden fees to look out for?
The incidental is just a hold that is released upon checkout. To tell you the truth I don’t have a clue how much it was. Other than the resort fee there are no fees to be aware of unless you’ll be parking a car there. Thanks for watching!
That Walk On's sports bar look a cool spot to hit up.
But the rest of Harrah's, especially the rooms, no thanks.
I got a reservation for 17$ for July. I don't think you'd have the same opinion at my price point :)
Perhaps. It still wouldn't change the assessment of the casino and dining options, though! Thanks for watching!
Do they charge to workout at their fitness club? Does the room fare cover the health club?
Guests can use the fitness center for free.
@@ShowMeVegas Thanks 👍
@@amogha111
It's included with a $45 resort fee
The total is $94+ a night .
Resort fee are subject to change .
Points will reduce of
eliminate resort fees
I despise automated check-ins so I avoid Caesars properties like the plague.
I’ve heard the self check ins are horrible.
@@oceancat0450 they are. Avoid at all costs. It makes the start of your trip a nightmare. Recommend MGM properties.
@@JasonEmerson711 thanks!
Stayed there for 6 nights, 2 1/2 weeks ago for the first week of the NCAA Tournament. Biggest convention Vegas has (every 3 years) was also that week for some stupid reason. For me, location is the only reason to stay at Harrah's. And the generous drink tickets in the sports book. We have friends that always stay at Mirage for March Madness, so that's the main reason Harrah's wins out. Seriously looking to switch to Planet Hollywood/Paris/Horseshoe location in the future though as I agree with all of your points about the property. Walk Ons sure seems pricey, but food looks good. If we had some local MGM properties in Kansas City, I'd consider switching loyalty. I'm all for staying downtown for at least part of the trip in the future.
You’re better off at the Golden Nugget. Much better rooms.
You're looking at Horseshoe/Paris/PH....I haven't officially stayed at PH, but consider this: If you're a Blackjack player, your best option is Horseshoe, not even a debate. Paris and PH have some pretty high limit tables that will pay 3-2 BJ. Typical wkend will require $100 to get 3-2 at Paris/PH. Horseshoe will be $50. If you play lower limits, then it's likely irrelevant between the 3, and would likely point you to downtown. Anyway, Paris is a great option if you want something with an upscale feel without a high scale price. Plus, as you know, the Paris and Horseshoe are linked so you get two for one If you enjoy poker, PH has a room (at least did in the past), but Horseshoe has a new poker room that is amazing. It's truly a great room.
Nice work Jordan! Ashden saving up her PTO for summer run, I bet .. dynamic duo back together for hotter Vegas! ..with you on bringing own toiletries!
We’ve got plans for two summer trips as it stands right now, for the both of us! Thanks as always for watching!
@@ShowMeVegas GREAT to read! We’ll be here .. keep it up!
Harrah’s is one of the many aging hotels in Vegas. It’s not what it used to be in the old days. Food is pricey now and the slots have been replaced with real rip off slots. I didn’t know what I was doing last time. Harrah’s has become scuzzy with a lower grade clientele I noticed a couple years ago September 2021 when last there.
Is Toby Keith’s bar not in Harrah’s anymore?
No it’s been gone a couple years. It was replaced by the Drew Brees restaurant Walk Ons.
Food prices are outrageous!!
Welcome to Vegas! Thanks for watching!
How much was the amenities fee?
Do you mean the Resort Fee? At Harrah's it is $39.95 per night plus tax.
Exactly what I was thinking the whole time. It's a place to lay my head. I don't pay for rooms or resort fees so I don't give a shit. Don't do entertainment and as for food. Like u said dead center of the strip... withing 200ft there's a 1000 restaurants take ur pick.
For some, that’s enough. We prefer a nice room at a property with amenities on-site. Thanks for watching!
Never have stayed there but spent some time there. We did watch Tape Face and that was fun but I agree , not a fan of the casino and there are much better properties to stay. Thanks for the video 👍
Thanks for watching!
My sister and i stayed at Harrah's for years and years. She was Diamond Status, but once they closed the Complimentary Diamond Lounges, and they were skimpimg on Rewards, we changed our visits. The showers are terribly dangerous, which designer thought of that concept. The Casino used to be fun, with it so busy, now its no mans land...dead! They got rid of Buck, Chip and ? The famous sculpture that was photographed by everyone. Yes, it was tacky but isn't that Vegas? This new corporation is sucking the life out of their Hotels and Casinos. NO!! I don't want to check in by a kiosk, what kind of welcome is that to customers that are staying there, gambling and eating at outrageous famous chefs restaurants that aren't actually in the kitchens!! Check ins are later, paying for early check in. If my room is empty, why can't i use it, is someone napping in the bed before!? No fridge, no coffee maker, for a room that comes in at $200.00+. Really.
We stay in Summerlin now at a Resort. Stop making unnecessary changes that have absolutely no improvement.
It’s OK need a fridge and a patio
Looking at the complaints I see online, I came to the conclusion people need to stop expecting these budget hotels to be something they’re not
I really miss Toby Keith’s I love this bar and grill Restaurant. Now I know what replaced it. 😢
I noticed a couple videos who’s your better half with you
About 9 videos were filmed on a solo trip in February and this was one of them. Gotta get that content created however we can! Thanks for watching!
Great video. Seems like Caesars properties are really going downhill. Seems like the money goes to the stock price and celebrity chefs, not maintenance, staff or salaries. MGM is doing only mildly better.
In our experience MGM properties are doing miles better. Caesars is in an absolute freefall... Thanks for watching!
Oh god I would be the creep watching the topless show by myself!!! Pray for me everyone lol
looks remodeled from what I can tell since last time I stayed there a number of years back. but the overall hotel is a dump beyond the location around midstrip. if you're all about burgers, hotdogs, chicken strips type of junk food eater, this place will give you orgasmic toe cramps however.
video tells the story, why tell us what we can see ? ! explain price FIRST ! Show room price across 7 days for a selected month !
Not sure I understand the first complaint, but when making these videos we've got to cut the price analysis off somewhere. The detail was perhaps already too long as it was. Harrah's website is readily available for checking the rate for any room at any time. Thanks for watching.
$40 resort fee for 1 night in that room? What exactly does that cover? The pool was closed…maybe Wi-Fi and a lame fitness center? I haven’t been to Vegas since 2016. I thought that it was fairly overpriced and low on value then. Wow
No way
🤺💐
I haven't been to a harrah casino in a year...I'm a 7 star..wtf it is..I'm not giving them my money regardless if they want to give me free room or Dubai trip
Hotel rooms I did stay...were very clean and good customer service..also didn't get I'd everywhere
Another haunted house! But if you want to go to the dirtiest room with a the nerve to ask for a resort fee try buffalo bills at the state line. Be sure to bring rat traps and haunted music
😂😂😂
The food looks tv dinner quality. Crazy how prices have quadrupled since Covid which was unavoidable. It was one big bait and switch and tech has taken over humankind in the process.
That dinner was probably the best thing about the stay. It was fantastic.
Fulton Food Hall has some very good options ......the Asian choices are by far better than "Food Court" type of food. I did however, have a TERRIBLE breakfast experience at an establishment that is no longer there......ordered food, waiter NEVER came back, so I walked out.....wasted 45 mins of my time.
room two small plus i stay there before not stay anymore it run down hotel should be for sale
That hotel room is a little beat up. The housekeeping is questionable. I would have been such a pain in the butt about it for that price. That’s higher then average, the rates you showed. No way, Caesers are supposed to be economy. Not paying that for harrahs.
That was pretty much how I felt. Thanks as always for watching!
@@ShowMeVegas you were generous in your ratings.
@@bethanyarnp8852 don’t want to be accused of being too negative all the time!
@@ShowMeVegas yeah no one likes a Debbie Downer
Got married and stayed at Harris never again
Wow that is expensive
No Microwave ?????????
Las Vegas hotels never have a microwave in them….
Just got back from there, worst hotel ever and I've been to some dives. The drop-off/pick-up area smelled like strong sewage. room was dirty. housekeeping didn't show the first two days. no in-room coffee, the TV didn't work (at first), the room keys quit working, the website is dishonest and the staff just seem ignorant (not stupid, they were nice, just didn't know anything), one racist event... from an African American girl, go figure. no shower door, no microwave, noisy all night long. had friends come up for a stay and they said never again. I felt bad cause I picked the place. I don't know where I'd recommend, but this place... ewwww.
👍
What no "company" for the night? LOL
Was there last week and it sucks 👎
Could you make a review of the Marriot Grand Chatteau
Lots of places to check off the list, but I'm not sure that one will be one of them. Thanks for watching!
the most prime location and they dont care to make these hotels nice. so sad
It is a shame to waste such a prime location. Thanks for watching!
Overpriced, dirty, inhospitable rooms that don't get serviced unless you specifically ask. Bed-bugs are a problem at a lot of Caesars properties including this one. Staff expect a tip for getting the Wifi, that you are forced to pay for through the resort fee, working in your room. Empty, lifeless casino with tramps and homeless people wandering around looking for money. Overpriced food hall with staff who want a tip simply for ringing your purchases up on the till.
I will never stay there again, or at any other Caesars property for that matter. They are taking the absolute piss out of their customers these days, and are going downhill fast. Dreadful value for money at every turn.
UM WHEN THEY LEGALIZED SPORTS BETTING THEY LEGALIZED VIDEO GAME GAMBLING.
Ok? What does that have to do with this video?
Nah!!! I have been banned from All Caesars Properties😂
Have you really? If so you're not really missing anything! Thanks as always for watching!
@@ShowMeVegas Yeah Dude, I didn't do anything illegal. The security guards thought I was having too good a time. Good riddance 😂😅
