THEhotel at Mandalay Bay

Print
3950 Las Vegas Blvd. S. , The Strip
Las Vegas , NV
(877) 632-7000

COST: $

<p>Fashionably minimalist, THEhotel is meant to feel like a boutique hotel (though with 1,118 rooms, this is hardly the case). A non-gaming property, it adjoins Mandalay Bay but has its own lobby and check-in, full-service spa (The Bathhouse), and high-profile lounge (Mix in Las Vegas) on the top floor. Rooms, in mellow grays and tans, average a generous 725 square feet and have spacious marble-and-granite master baths with separate powder rooms, giant 42-inch plasma TV's, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Despite the Mandalay Bay's location right next door, THEhotel is still removed from the fray, with a contemporary art-filled lobby that always feels exclusive and clubby. </p> <p><strong>Tip:</strong> An adult-oriented property, THEhotel at Mandalay Bay draws L.A. weekenders, those in the fashion and music industries, and bachelor parties. Families traveling with children will feel out of place.</p> <p><strong>Room to Book:</strong> In this 42-story hotel, the better rooms are on the higher floors. Opt for a Strip or mountain-view room (pool views aren't as impressive).</p>
