Thanks in advance - heading over tomorrow and cant wait!
1/4 mile give or take 50 feet. In British terms that's under 1 km.
How dare you sir! I'll have you know that the British mile is sacrosanct and will be replaced by that johnny foriegner kilometre over my dead body!
I found that the Sahara to Stratosphere was a brisk 7-8 minute walk, or a rather breathless 4 minute run if pursued or imtimidated by the local street gangs prowling that area.
(only joking before the pc police start to riot)

A Word of advice, always use the return to main page link rather than the back button when checking on your posting or you'll end up being a plank!
Is the area around the Stratosphere not safe?
As long as you stay on Las Vegas Blvd, do not go north of the Strat, you should be ok.
Plan for about a 10 to 15 minute walk from the Sahara to the Strat. I have never had a safety issue going to the Strat but there is no way that I would walk north of the Strat. To do that drive or take the bus. If you take the bus anywhere wear your money under your clothes pick pocketers abound on the bus and it is packed so tight that even the honest people may have their hands in your pockets.
About 10 minutes. I would NOT advise walking after dark, area is not nice at all.
The walk is four very long blocks thru a not particularly nice area. Stay on the west side of the street. Do not walk it at night. Come to think of it...why go there at all?
