Hotel Overview

Legendary hotel with a legendary performer A half-mile from the enormous Fashion Show Mall, this legendary Strip resort features the equally legendary Wayne Newton 40 weeks a year. Grotto spas offer bubbly relaxation in a tropical-garden courtyard, which includes two pools, one of which is for lap swimming. Big bands play dance music in the Stardust Ballroom. Bronc riders, boxers, and entertainers perform in the Stardust Pavilion.

Location

Las Vegas blvd, The Strip

Property amenities

Within the resort are a shopping promenade, a 24-hour fitness center, and a full-service business center.

What to expect: Las Vegas grew up around the Stardust's 62 tropical and desert acres on the north end of what became known as The Strip. Here, traditional Las Vegas still exists: a larger-than-life entertainer (Wayne Newton), a mahogany-paneled steakhouse, a softly-lit lounge offering musical acts, an elegant casino, and sundecks and pools to restore and refresh after all-night entertainment.

Amenity highlights: The tropical-garden pool complex includes two pools—one free-form and the other rectangular for lap swimming. Between them rises a large sandstone structure in a coconut-palm grove. Each side of the massive rock shelters a 10-person spa that's always open for social soaking.

Insider tip: In addition to assisting commercial travelers with services and cellular phone rentals, the resort's business center rents digital cameras to vacationers.
