The Normandy

Review from a complicated guest. First time staying at the Cosmo. This hotel is truly iconic and I was very happy I finally got to stay at the hotel. Wicked Spoon was totally worth it. You are truly in the middle of the strip and you are always one step away from everything worth doing. I have a very special thank you for Bruce in the front desk. Bruce delivered when I asked for a room with a lovely view, it was truly the best room I've ever stayed.

Towards the end there was a misunderstanding on my end towards a special that was being offered and and this caused for Bruce to call his manager. I truly appreciate the way this was handle. I did not get things my way but the Bruce and his manager were able to maneuver the situation for me to still be able to leave as a happy guest. I truly thank you for your patience and I appreciate what you both were able to do. The Cosmopolitan is truly lucky to have you Both.

The hotel is beautiful. The location is great. The room view was amazing. However we were informed that even though check in said 3pm that doesn't necessarily mean the room will be ready then. We were getting married that evening and assumed we would be in the room around 3pm to start getting ready. We ended up waiting in the lobby for two hours. Multiple times back and forth to the counter to see if the room was ready yet. Told it was then it wasn't.

Over and over. One of our bags was stolen while waiting. It was a very negative experience and really impacted our wedding plans. So just a heads up to people don't assume you're getting in at the posted check in time.

We had the pleasure of staying at the cosmopolitan for our friends birthday party! The hotel was great! They have a ton of really good restaurants (including a hidden pizza place, ask around to find it). The dealers at the craps table were a ton of fun, and we had a great few runs! If you have the opportunity to get one of the patios facing the Bellagio, the views are amazing at night! Definitely check out this hotel if you're staying on the strip!

Short version: good place to stay for the right price Long version: the cosmopolitan is located very conveniently right smack dab in the middle of the strip which allows easy access to the main strip. Further it doesn't have a long far "front yard" which allows you to get out of the"resort "quickly. The hotel rooms are pretty much standard for what you can expect in the newer hotels around.

The restaurant options are decent but not as many as the larger hotels like Bellagio or area or MGM. The pool size is moderate/decent. And casino portion is pretty standard but we are not big gamblers. Of course we have the usual grapes of the resort fees. Valet parking can be charged but self parking should ideally be free. The hotel maintenance service was quite good.

We did not try the show in cosmopolitan so cannot comment on it. Finally it would be nice if they can add a coffee machine at each room as it is incredibly far to just get a Starbucks coffee every day. This is available even at a Holiday Inn or the most basic hotels across the world and I just can't understand why they can't have one in the hotel room. Overall a decent place to stay if you can find the right price comparing it to the other hotels

I wish I had more photos of this amazing hotel but holy cow, I love it so much. I haven't been fortunate enough to stay here yet but it's always a favorite to visit. The BEST restaurants! Beauty & Essex, the secret pizza spot, the Chandelier Bar for the flower drink you'll get great Instagram photos. The whole vibe there is incredible in general and certainly a must visit, always. Every staff member I've encountered has always been amazing. Fingers crossed I stay soon because I hear the rooms are perfect.

One of the best places to stay! Amazing views! Great designs on the overall hotel, lobby, lounges, suites, and so on. Every single staff were very friendly even housekeepers. I love the fact that the hotel is not covered by smell of cigarettes. Definitely will stay here again in next visit.

Rooms are clean and cleaned up every day. The property is fun and lively. The restaurant are high end on third floor and middle high end on the second floor. The music and atmosphere is eccentric and modern luxury. The marque is one the best day and night clubs around. Pools are energized and fun. The drinks selection are the best. Highly recommend it

I've stayed in many Vegas hotels and the Cosmopolitan is my favorite. It is centrally located directly on the strip. Parking is free for guests and is located directly under the hotel. The rooms are large and well appointed with wonderful views of the strip. There are a lot of restaurant choices in the hotel, providing something for everyone. As is to be expected of a high-end hotel, the restaurants are not cheap. The on-site casino is very nice, but the minimum bets can be a bit high and odds a bit low.

This was our best trip yet. The food was terrific, we enjoyed every meal and late snaking at secret pizza. The games were slow but entertaining, and the tables were a blast. The room is what completes a great stay. There balcony rooms are a real game changer. Nice and clean with big showers and two sinks.

They're unique and they know it. Definitely feels like the upper caste of the casinos (yes I say caste instead of class. Important distinction in dynamics). Their rewards program is obnoxiously difficult to maneuver. Especially since you have to go to their rewards stand to deal with it, and every time a platinum member shows up, they get to cut in front of you.

I suppose the top 1% appreciate this, as in any privileged American situation. The rest of us just sit and wait, wishing we had more money and didn't have to pretend we have more than we actually do. However, their amenities, specifically restaurants, are excellent and the staff are all very nice. They have a strong sense of quality. I'll be coming back because they are, obnoxiously, the most elegant and comfortable resort on the strip. I just wish their rewards program could be done differently, maybe completely online, to avoid the status reminder from the all honorable platinum members.
