Aria

Anybody stayed here yet? Or any Vegas residents been to the casino? How did you like it? I really only care about the poker room so if you played there even better. Thanks

My friend won $900 bucks their about 3 weeks ago playing Black Jack while I gave them a donation..

very impressive .. sports book is nice but had a mechanical feel

Won their huh?....lol

Aria really nice hotel, stayed there about a month ago.  Me and two other guys had one room during a bachelor party weekend.  Our room was a disaster, housekeeping even folded up one of our shirts we had lying around.

Buffet was good, they gave half a lobster with the buffett.  Poker action was varying, did decent there but sometimes the game was pretty shit.  But you are a 10 minute walk to MGM and a tram ride away to Bellagio. 

yea my cousin and i decided to stay here just to change things up. we usually stay at hooters. i am really looking forward to it. hopefully be able to get out to wolf creek as well. thanks for the replies

If you stay at Hooters, you will not like Aria.

This is a highly "technical" environment...the rooms are the most hi-tech in the country, even the slot machines are tied into the ventilation system (this is the biggest "green project" in the country.

The Sportsbook has little-to-no "feel" to it....the area is arranged more for people who want to watch the games than bet on them.

You will also find the food, both here and in Crystals, to be way above average in cost..only Mastro's gets a good review (and it's average tab is $100 per person)....

The entire CityCenter complex built by MGM Mirage & their partner in the Mideast was made to appeal to major money and to be the "opposite" of what people expect from Vegas.

I am not bashing Aria/CityCenter...only commenting on it factually. Personally, I believe in it and feel that this will be the future of LV....but many, many years down the road.

Out of all the sports books, I thought Aria was the best one to watch games.  The main HD screen, the size was just unbelievable and you are right there in front of the tv it's like you are lounging at home in front of the biggest screen you can possibly imagine.   And the cocktail waitresses are hot and they come quick with drinks. 

To add one more thing to cute's comment, which I agree with......

This is NOT a "Hooters crowd"....with the rare exception of a March Madness time or Super Bowl...if you act like you are at a Frat Party with your buddies, security will be right behind those "hot" cocktail waitresses.

PS...The hottest ones?....at The M Hotel & Casino....They were chosen for how they looked and not for experience and get weighed every month....lots of silicone.

are you saying because i stayed at hooters i don't know how to use technology vegas? Im just joking with you of course but for a college student you couldn't beat the 25 dollars a night at hooters. i am really looking forward to my stay and appreciate the replies

M Resort cocktail waitresses.... silicone

As far as City Center/Aria, the guys are right. Its definitely for foreign tourists.

 

Stayed in a sky suite there on new years.  Rooms are very high tech but very cold. Did not like the feel of the place and I was lost the entire time. Never knew where I was in the damn place. Poker room had 2-5 going, not even 5-10 NL which is really lame for a big weekend like new years.

 

Probably wont stay there again

I tried the buffet there last Saturday & it was pretty limited compared to others along the strip. Two dudes form American Idol were there including the dude who got voted off this week. They kept getting interrupted by people asking for pics while they were eating breakfast.  

Aria great book!

M is where it's at literally 6-8 miles from the strip though!!

Do they give out drink tickets or free drinks like the Bellagio??

ARIA - superb architecture, terrible decor.
the hotel hallways are like an office bldg and both the hotel and casino used waaaaay too much dark brown.
Though their sportsbook has the best director in town

vegas is the best city in the world, the city offers you anything you want .
