Visited mid morning to do the sky jump as our daughter was going back at 1600hrs. Purchased tickets and took the lift to the 108 floor, once you leave the lift there are no signs, or indeed staff to direct you, to the rides. Once we located the sky jump, we were told nothing until after 1730 hrs. This is... More

Price was ok to go up the tower- i would advise if you are going up in the day - to eat up there its not badly priced and there's fast food there. this would allow you some chill out time at the top to take it all in. Take the tram as its a 5 min walk from the... More

Adds $40 each day in taxi rides because of this location that isolates you from walking to the other attractions on the strip

The hotel had really nice rooms, amazing view! In a bad area though so i was scared walking around. We only paid like $50, so the few things I wasn't crazy about I could totally overlook. The front desk was nice, but not overly so, the valet and bell desk were very friendly and accomadating. I was most impressed with... More

I did the Sky Jump at the Stratosphere, which is a controlled free fall from the 108th floor. This was the most amazing experience! I would highly recommend getting the package with the DVD (approx $140) as if you are anything like me, you probably won't remember what was going on at the top of that tower!!!

bought the $34 unlimited pass. it was the only thing in Vegas that was under priced. Did all the rides at least 4 times. and the view itself is worth 30 bucks. IF you are in Vegas and even if you are afraid of sitting on those rides. you should at least go on top of the tower. And go... More

Just did they skyjump. If you're any sort of thrill seeker you will probably be disappointed. The build up is intense, the initial step off is intense the first second is intense, thennnnn the cable slows you down, way down. Not a freefall, it's slow and boring once the cable catches. If you are a male 15-35 this isn't gonna... More

I stayed in the hotel here two weeks ago and had free access to tower. Thrill rides are cheap and well worth a look, I did Xscream for $8. Good view's over the strip and a bar to calm your nerves if you dont like hights.

I understand how many people want to stay closer to the main strip...I do...BUT with the Stratosphere Tower you get a BEAUTIFUL view of Las Vegas that you can't get anywhere else!!! You also get a large, comfortable room at a fraction of the cost of the other hotels. Room service is superb! And the Deuce Transit stops right outside... More

A must do in vegas, the the free fall jump off the tower, so exciting it is the best thing we did in vegas. this is well worth the cost even though it is a bit expensive for a limited budget traveler.
