Location and the right kind of guest
Resorts World sits on the north Strip at the site of the old Stardust, across from Fontainebleau and a few minutes on foot from Wynn and Encore. That puts it closer to the action than its neighbour, but it is still north of the center Strip, and the walk to the Venetian is comfortable while the walk to Bellagio is not. The saving grace is transport: the property has a Vegas Loop station linking it to the convention center, which we cover in our Vegas Loop guide, and rideshare pickups are quick.
It suits Hilton Honors members who can redeem points, food-focused travellers who will happily eat at the Famous Foods hall every night, and people attending events at the convention center. It suits club-goers as well, with Zouk and Ayu on site. What to see and do there is covered in our Resorts World destination guide.
Hilton, Conrad or Crockfords: choosing a tier
The single tower is split into three Hilton brands with separate lobbies, and the differences are real. Las Vegas Hilton at Resorts World is the largest block and the value option: clean, modern rooms of a good size, sometimes with slightly generic finishes, at the lowest rates. Conrad Las Vegas occupies the middle: larger rooms, better bathrooms, warmer design and a quieter lobby, typically for a moderate premium. Crockfords Las Vegas is the top tier under the LXR label: the highest floors, the largest rooms and suites, a dedicated lobby with a more attentive style of service, and prices to match.
Within any tier, request a high floor facing the Strip, which looks south toward Wynn and the rest of the Boulevard. West-facing rooms get mountain views and the sunset; north-facing rooms look over the Sahara and the convention center. Corner rooms in the Conrad and Crockfords are the pick if your budget stretches. Room names and categories have been revised since opening, so check the booking page.
The fee and the garage
The resort fee is charged across all three brands and sits in the mid-Strip range, roughly $40 to $55 plus tax per night as of 2026; check the official site for the current figure. Hilton Honors award stays have generally been exempt from resort fees under Hilton's published policy, which is a notable advantage here, but confirm for the specific booking. Our resort fee explainer covers the rest.
Parking has been one of the property's selling points: self-parking has been free at various times since opening, which is rare on the Strip, while valet has carried a charge. That has been subject to change, so verify the current policy before relying on it. The garage is large and connects directly into the casino level. Details on the alternatives are in our Strip parking guide.
The pool complex
The pool deck is a large terrace with several pools, including a main pool, a family-friendly pool, a quieter adults-oriented area and a section given over to Ayu Dayclub, which runs as a ticketed party on weekends during the season. Guests can use the hotel pools without an Ayu ticket, and the layout keeps the dayclub noise mostly to one end. There are cabanas, daybeds and a pool-level bar and grill.
Access is shared across the three brands, with certain areas or perks reserved for Conrad and Crockfords guests at times. Season runs roughly from spring into autumn; some pools close or run short hours in winter. On non-dayclub days the deck is one of the more relaxed on the Strip. It appears in our best resort pools comparison.
Spa and fitness
Awana Spa is the resort spa, a large, modern facility with a thermal circuit that has included hot and cold plunges, steam, sauna and a social-style wet area, alongside a full treatment menu. Day passes have been available to guests and, at times, to non-guests. It is not as ornate as Qua or as expansive as the Wynn spa, but it is contemporary and well run. Check current hours and pricing, since spa access rules have changed with demand.
The fitness centre is large and well equipped, with plenty of cardio, a solid strength area and space to stretch, and access is normally included in the resort fee. It is a real gym rather than a hotel afterthought. Our best resort spas page has the wider comparison.
Famous Foods and the restaurant floor
The food is the strongest argument for staying. Famous Foods Street Eats is a Southeast Asian-style hawker hall with stalls modelled on well-known street vendors from Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand alongside local operators, and it is the best cheap meal on the north Strip: counter service, shared tables, most dishes well under the price of a casino cafe. It is open late and busy, and it never gets old across a long stay.
Upstairs and around the casino, the sit-down roster has included Carversteak, Genting Palace for Cantonese, Wally's for wine and cheese, Kusa Nori for sushi, and a rotating cast of other operators. Line-ups here have turned over more than at the older resorts, so check the current list. For everything else within a short ride, see our dining hub.
Casino floor, arrival and departure
The casino is bright, tall-ceilinged and less smoky than the older floors thanks to the new ventilation, with a mix of tables, slots and a large sports book. It is noticeably quieter on weeknights than the center Strip, which some guests love and some find flat. The nightlife side runs hot: Zouk nightclub is a serious operation, and Resorts World Theatre hosts residencies by major headliners. Check the calendar, since a big residency weekend changes the whole mood of the property.
Each brand has its own lobby, so make sure you walk to the right one. Hilton Honors digital check-in and digital key work here, which is a real convenience. Early check-in is realistic outside convention weeks, and late checkout is an established Honors status benefit at the higher tiers, subject to availability.
Why Hilton Honors makes this hotel different
Resorts World is the only major Strip casino resort inside Hilton Honors, and that changes the math. Points earned on business travel elsewhere can be redeemed for standard rooms here, award stays have generally been exempt from the resort fee under Hilton policy, and Honors Gold and Diamond status brings the usual benefits: upgrades when available, late checkout, and a breakfast or food-and-beverage credit that is unusual on the Strip. Confirm the current program terms, since the benefits at casino properties are sometimes adjusted.
Resorts World also runs its own casino loyalty program, Genting Rewards, for gaming play and on-property spend, and the two programs have been linked to varying degrees. If you gamble, join both. Our hotel deal guide covers points bookings and cash-plus-points options in more depth.
Pros, cons, rates and verdict
- Pro: Hilton Honors points and status actually work here, including fee-free award stays.
- Pro: Famous Foods is the best casual food hall on the Strip.
- Pro: modern rooms, a big gym and free or cheap self-parking at various times.
- Con: north-Strip location, with a long walk south of Wynn.
- Con: Hilton-tier rooms can feel corporate; the character is in Conrad and Crockfords.
- Con: the casino can feel empty midweek.
As of 2026, Hilton rooms have run roughly $120 to $250 midweek and $220 to $450 on weekends before the resort fee; Conrad adds a moderate premium and Crockfords a large one. Verdict: for Honors members and anyone who eats well on a budget, this is one of the smartest stays in Las Vegas. Walkers who want the center Strip should look at our other stay guides.
