I have been traveling to the Las Vegas Hilton since I started coming to Vegas, except for my first ever trip to Vegas, where I stayed at New York New York. In any case, now that the Hilton has ended their agreement with this property they are calling it LVH, which is quite funny since that it was my friends and I have always called it. I think when Manilow left this property it was all downhill from there. He brought a lot of people in to this property. Rooms: I have a love hate relationship with this property. One time I was upgraded to a walk-in marble suite with jacuzzi. I think at the time they only had a couple of these rooms available and then the genius who is in charge of the property decided to get rid of these fabulous rooms for remodel. It was a nice big room and the jacuzzi itself was enormous. Since then I have been staying in the Grand Room and have noticed that in the past few years the customer service at the check in desk has gone down along with some other aspects of the property. I have been given rooms that were the incorrect room I booked, missed wake up calls, etc. Food: The Las Vegas Hilton buffet was great, especially because I received the buffets for free being an elite Hilton Honors member, no more now, thanks Hilton! Another great place is the sandwich shop directly across from the Sports Book. Great sub sandwiches made to order. You think they would keep it open til early morning but it usually closes late at night... Slots/Table Games: Some great classic Slot machine games. I like the fact that they kept some of the classics instead of replacing them with some of the garbage that is coming out lately. As for table games, the dealers and pit bosses are the friendliest around. Really had a good time gambling there. The Sportsbook is second to none and you actually used to get food or property comps for placing wagers in The Sportsbook but not sure what they are doing now since they changed owners... Misc.: Easy to get too and from the Strip as the Monorail goes right to the LVH. Great place to get away from the usual craziness of the Strip. They shouldn't have shelved the Star Trek Experience. That always brought a lot of guests in. It closed a few years ago and they still have all that space with absolutely nothing in it. What a waste of space. Big disappointment again in their management. I hate to say it but I wouldn't be surprised if this property closes shop in the next few years to make room for something new. I don't have any knowledge of that, it's just a hunch and from what has been happening lately. I think guests who don't know already will be severely disappointed when they find out that they can't get Hilton Honor Points or Rewards anymore, especially the free daily breakfast at the buffet. So long Las Vegas Hilton (the real LVH) ol' friend. I won't forget the great times we had...
