Flamingo

The Strip, Las Vegas

Virgin rating

The hotel

This historic hotel was built by Vegas legend, Bugsy Siegel back in 1946 and it's seen countless celebrities walk through its doors in the last 60 years, as well as being the backdrop for the original Ocean's Eleven film and Viva Las Vegas. It has an amazing location right in the middle of The Strip and near the fantastic Caesars Forum Shops, with award-winning Flamingo Go Rooms. The hotel is great for kids with its amazing Beach Club Pool. The GO Pool offers a 21+ lively pool party experience with its amazing 15-acre tropical pool paradise, which has whirlpools and four different swimming pools nestled among the lush, green foliage. Then there's the Wildlife Habitat, where the resort's eponymous flamingos hang out with turtles, swans and ducks. There's a choice of seven restaurants including Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville and Margaritaville Casino, featuring the 5 O’Clock Somewhere Bar. Margaritaville is as much a state of mind as it is a place. The multi-level Caribbean-themed entertainment venue offers two outdoor patios overlooking the Las Vegas Strip, a nautical-themed restaurant, four distinctive bars, live entertainment nightly (both indoors and outdoors) and a 3,000-sq ft retail store. You can also eat outside by the pool or even enjoy a spot of gambling in the pool casino located at the GO Pool! At the Margaritaville Casino at the Flamingo, guests feel the energy of the Las Vegas strip while enjoying the laid-back vibe of the islands.

I have stayed at this hotel 3-4-5 times in past years, with the last time before this March 12, 2024 stay was in 2016. Never Again, the hotel is not in the best of shape, but their rates reflect they are the TOP OF THE LINE. Services are extremely slow (Registration Desk, Bell Captain, Engineer) My first night I was assigned to a room with absolutely NO HEAT and it was in the 30’s. The AC was blowing very cold air all night long. An Engineer came to my room and said he fixed it, but he did not and as soon as he left the AC seemed to have gotten colder. The next morning another Engineer came to my room and said he fixed it, but no Heat was felt, but plenty of AC. Fortunately, I was able to get another room and that thermostat was working, however, the water in the shower was so hot that it was very difficult to take a shower, but I was so happy to be able to sleep comfortably that I dealt with the scalding water very carefully. My tip is to make sure everything is working properly before you unpack and get settled in your room should you stay at this property. Out dated, even the so called remodeled rooms are outdated.

This Hotel has absolutely the worst customer service I have ever encountered in my 70 years. In fact, I would say they have NO customer service whatsoever.. We had not been to Las Vegas for 24 years so planned a quick get away for 3 nights. Before we flew there, I received an email that said if I was arriving after midnight I needed to notify the hotel. I called a day or two ahead of time and let them know that my plane did not land until 11:35 pm. I told them to make a note in my file to save my room as depending on the flight, luggage, and an Uber I probably might not get there till after midnight. We arrived to the hotel about 12:10 or so. When we got to the checkin area there was a line. Only 3 people were working. When we got to the counter it was around 1AM. The lady told me I was only staying one night. I said no and proved it to her. She then said she would be right back. Almost a half hour later, she came back and told us our room was not available. When we commented on that she told us that they give out most of their rooms around 4 pm. I complained about that and then asked her how she would feel if she paid and rented a Mercedes and she was given a Volkswagen or SmartCar for the same price. She had no comment. She then told us she was giving us a suite but just for the night. That we needed to check out by 11, come down to lobby, and then get a different room. I asked her if we had to get back in the long line and endure that wait. She told us to go to Customer Service and that it would go faster. We got our room keys. By the time we got to the room it was within minutes of 2 am. We were offered nothing: no apology, no free breakfast, nothing. Don't waste your short time staying g here, stay somewhere on the strip where as a customer you will be valued. Read less

The Flamingo is in a great location on the strip and the staff were amazing and helpful! The room itself was okay.

The Flamingo is in a great location on the strip and the staff were amazing and helpful! The room itself was okay. I booked a room with a view of the Sphere and we could see just the top of it - that was disappointing as I paid extra for that view. The bathroom was pretty gross and I'm not one to complain about a little dirt or stains on the carpet...this was gross. There was dried silly string on the bathroom door and the mold around the shower dispenser was concerning......I think I heard it growl at me! Love the location! Housekeeping could use some work.

Pros: - Great central location - Fun outdoor space Cons: - Poor housekeeping - Overpriced food court - Lukewarm water in the room - Linens and carpet stinks of weed - Problematic elevators - Unsupportive pillows and mattresses - Tiny fridge Skip this place and choose a more modern hotel.

Andre at the front desk is an absolute gem. He was so fun and kind to us at check in that it started us off on a great weekend. Thank you for such hospitality Andre. The rooms were very affordable and great for the price. Housekeeping did a great job each day cleaning the rooms. Easy on and off the strip. Great food options in walking distance.
