French Luxury In The Desert - The Paris Las Vegas Hotel Casino

The Paris Las Vegas hotel and casino is one of the more distinctive and relaxing places to stay in Vegas. One of the Harrah's Entertainment properties, the theme is - you guessed it - Paris, France. ;-)

The exterior of Paris Las Vegas includes a half-scale, 540 foot tall reproduction of the Eiffel Tower, a 2/3 scale Arc de Triomphe, and a huge colorful neon sign in the shape of the seventeenth century Montgolfier balloon. The front facade of the building combines the architecture of 2 of Paris' landmarks - the Louvre museum and the Opera House.

Graceful and stylish arches, fireplaces, mirrors, and lighting accent the mood of the hotel, accentuating a high level of luxury. The shops seem small and unassuming providing a comfortable market place sensation when you shop. Even the buffets have multiple dinning rooms, with each one containing full length mirrors, fireplaces, stylish mantles and an ambiance you might imagine could be found only in France

The Hotel: Staying at Paris Las Vegas is a genuine treat. The rooms provide more elegant surroundings than some of the better known (and pricier) Vegas properties. Guest rooms include custom designed European furnishings with a French ambiance. The wonderfully comfortable beds have leatherette headboards. The attention to French detail, right down to fanciful floral wash basins in the Provencal-style bathrooms, combines to bring about a captivating yet classy feel. The marble bathrooms offer separate tubs and showers, along with makeup/shaving mirrors. Rooms include desks, upholstered chairs, and loveseats, and suites include spacious sitting areas and built-in wet bars. Armoires conceal televisions which offer pay-per-view movies and video games. Multi-line speaker phones include voice mail. High-speed internet access is available for a surcharge. Every room also includes a complimentary safe.
