Long-time readers of this page know that we also maintain the Dine Drink Vegas Youtube channel. On that channel, we try to bring you short and focused videos which give you the information you need to plan your next trip. We also try to bring you that information here, and we just completed a series on the Aria Las Vegas. The property is expensive, but amazing.
Aria Las Vegas vs. Aria Sky Suites
The first thing to understand about Aria is that there are two distinct hotels within a hotel. The Aria Sky Suites is considerably more upscale. I have a link to their VIP Lounge below, and all Sky Suites guests have access to this lounge. Seriously, I saw LeBron James in there one time. The Sky Suites guests have access to all of the amenities of the main hotel, but in addition to the private lounge have larger rooms, a private pool, and perks like shorter elevator lines.
The regular Aria hotel is, of course, still beautiful. However, there is no VIP lounge unless you have casino status. They used to have VIP lounge access you could purchase, but that appears to have gone away. The rooms feel quite plush, but are on the same scale as regular hotel rooms. They are both great properties with many shared amenities. Just make sure you know which one you are booking.
What Amenities Does Aria Have?
The Aria Las Vegas has the nicest amenities of any place except maybe the Bellagio. I am a particularly big fan of the Aria pool, and I just did a review of it on YouTube. The spa, of which I obviously do not have pictures, is beautiful. The restaurants are expensive, but they are excellent. I have links to a couple of my favorites below. If you want something lower key, the Aria food court (YouTube link) is also great.
The other major amenity Aria has is location. They are dead in the middle of the Strip, and if the weather is nice you can walk to many other properties. The problem is price. The gambling odds at Aria are terrible unless you bet big, and they know they have nice stuff. That means they charge for it. Aria Las Vegas is still an excellent choice for your vacation. However, make sure you know the difference between the two hotels and look at your budget for the trip. Happy travels!
