If you want to feel like a total baller, head to Scotch 80 Prime, the steakhouse named after an iconic Rat Pack–era Vegas neighborhood (The Scotch 80s). Alize, on the 56th floor, has reopened as Vetri Cucina-the first expansion of Marc Vetri’s cult-status Italian restaurant in Philly. How about the food and drink? The renovation introduced some of the best restaurants in Las Vegas. What's the word on Wi-Fi? The Wi-Fi is free, but the resort fee has risen from $32 to $39-in line with the rest of the Strip. Palms Place rooms are large and residential feeling. Theme Suites range from the Hardwood Suite (10,000 square feet with a private basketball court) and Kingpin (with a bowling alley and DJ booth) to various options for Sky Villas. Ivory Tower rooms have a functional layout and good workspace. In The Fantasy Tower-the most popular and most expensive-the 460-square-foot Fantasy Tower King Room has lovely, neutral decor, great art, and a marble bath.

What can we expect from our room? Three towers all offer something a different. Pop culture fanatics know Palms from a season of MTV's 'Real World' and Katy Perry's 'Waking up in Vegas' video. What’s the story behind the hotel? Brothers Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta, owners of powerhouse properties like Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa, bought the Palms for $312.5 million in 2016. The casino floor itself, meanwhile, is packed with 40 new table games. The property's bold, edgy look includes a massive Damien Hirst shark sculpture, a hot-pink neon sign, new dining outlets, and much more. But when it was sold in 2016 to Station Casinos, its $690 million renovation was the biggest news in Las Vegas.

With one of the city's best views and a California-commuter clientele, Palms was always the cool kid off the Strip.
