Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas - August 2021

My wife and I just completed a 3 night stay the Waldorf Astoria, also taking advantage of the 3rd night free special.

Hotel: Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas

Room: Booked Strip View King Bed

Check in: Checked in around 11am, room wasn’t ready yet, so we left our bags at the front desk to go explore and grab some food. We received the room ready text around 2:30pm

Upgrade: Upgraded to Junior Waldorf Suite. We were offered an upgrade to the Panorama Strip View One Bedroom for an additional $130 a night but we decided against it.

Late Checkout: Used, 4pm check out

Breakfast Credit: $30 per person (2 people) at Zen Kitchen or In-Room Dining, Total = $60 per day

Other Credits: $125 property credit, $25 per person (2 people) for Hilton Honors Food/Drink Credit ($50 Total per day), and then a $5 daily WiFi Credit applied to daily resort fee

Comment: Overall, it was a great stay. The hotel is beautiful, and all-around service was phenomenal. As others have mentioned, there is no casino attached to the property so if you are looking to be steps away from the action then this place is definitely not for you. If you are just looking to relax, then I think the Waldorf is a perfect tranquil escape from the “Vegas” life, and you can always walk over to the Aria and Cosmo which aren’t too far away.

The pool is also awesome, very chill, and never crowded. Again, if you are looking for pool party vibes, not the place for that but still a great pool to lounge around at. Pool café and bar service is only open certain days so check for that as well.

We ate at Zen Kitchen for breakfast first two days and got in-room breakfast the last day. The food is decent, but way over-priced. If I didn’t have the breakfast credit, I would probably skip it. Skybar is worth checking out though, on the 23rd floor next to the lobby. Great view of the strip. We didn’t get spa services so can’t comment on that.

Also, check your Folio when you receive it at the end. We were missing the $125 property credit and the $50 HH Gold credit for one of the days we stayed. I called the hotel up directly and spoke to one of the personal concierges who applied the credit no problem.
