| I was dissapointed with this resort, upon check in at 2am the clerk told us he had a great room for us, it was 2 doubles not one king as requested no patio or balcony and the decor in room did not depict what marriott shows on their web site. for a addl * dollars a day room changed to have a patio but decor still old not as shown on website. rooms were clean and roomy. The worst let down was the gym on website looks great, but that gym is * a day to utilize which is not documented on web site. the gym for free is in a guest room with 4 pieces of broken equipment, dark dingy . i took alot of time to choose this resort and i feel the website misrepresents alot of items. food was okay , several choices. grounds were beautiful. If i went again i would stay down the street at red rock casino for the same amt of money. |

| My husband and I arrived 3 days early prior to my 3 day business conference. The accommodations were far above what we expected! Ceiling fans, best hotel bathroom ever (rain shower head and huge room) clean, registration staff was incredible. A refreshing break from the strip. Rented a car and drove back to The Strip for 2 shows, no problems. Morning traffic back to airport during the week is slow, so plan accordingly. Disappointed in restaurants on site, but lots of options nearby. Access to Red Rock Canyon was great and well worth the drive just a few miles west. Would highly reccomend and will stay here again as opposed to hectic pace of The Strip. |

| This hotel is nice - the restrooms are lovely with a two person Jacuzzi tub. Their 24 hour cafe had decent food. The pina coladas they served in the casino were very tasty - probably the best gambling drink I've had in a casino in quite a while. My biggest critique is that the TV in the room was pretty outdated, and they should have actual refrigerators instead of coolers. |

| This resort is only 15 minutes from the Strip in Vegas, but it seems worlds away. Once you enter the grounds all you can hear are the peaceful sounds of waterfalls and cicadas, the smell of pine trees drowns out the smog and cigarette smoke of the rest of Vegas and you can actually walk into your hotel room without winding your way through thousands of slot machines. But don't get me wrong... if you like the night life of Vegas it's only a 15 minute drive away (and the majority of the casinos on the Strip have free parking) or you can take the free shuttle that the hotel runs. Go and have your fun on the Strip and then come back here and enjoy the feeling of a Mediterranean resort and completely forget you're in the middle of the desert.The rooms were large and beautiful, with french doors that could open up outside. The bathroom was all marble, and every room has a large jacuzzi bathtub. There's several restaurants on-site (which were very good - The 24-hour Starbucks was a great addition, and the Irish pub was rocking with live music in the night ), but there's also a shopping district less than a mile away that mas many restaurants in it as well. The pool was nice - not as big as I'd imagined it would be (for the size of the resort anyway.... but it wasn't very crowded, so it was fine- and they do have pool-side drink service so you can relax to your heart's content. There's a casino on the property, so you can get your gambling fill. Actually, unless you're dying to hit the Strip there's no real reason why you'd even have to leave this property.We will be back! |

| This is a great off-the-strip hotel with every necessary amenity. There are several restaurants on-site, offering lots of variety, including a 24 hour Starbucks! There is a large variety of dining and and shopping options within a few minutes. There is a casino onsite. The rooms were spacious and clean, and had all the little extras one would expect from a 5 star resort; robes, coffee maker,fridge etc.The pool is huge with pool-side bar/snacks and lounge chair service! It was great! This is a wonderful place to stay. I would recommend to anyone if you like Vegas but don't like the congestion of the strip. The nightlife is close enough, but you choose when to deal with the traffic and the crowds. |

| This was a lavish treat and a great time was had by my whole family. If you drive to Vegas, I'd recommend this place to anyone, even with small kids. You're away from the strip enough to really feel like you are getting away, but if you feel like doing anything you would in a strip hotel you can do it here. Sports book, all casino games, slots, 5* restaurants, buffet, 24 hrs diner (thanks for the shrimp cocktail). Great place. |

| The JW Marriott Las Vegas is a great place to stay. This was a quick getaway before my husband deploys. The breakfast buffet was the best start to our day. It was included with our room rate. Our 11 and 4 year olds loved the pool area. It is also close to Target, CVS pharmacy (in case your child decides to get a stomach ache from so much excitement and flare up of eczema in the Nevada sun) and many great restaurants. Starbucks is a great convienance in the hotel. We loved it and plan to return as soon as my husband returns from deployment next year! |

| One of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed at. Nice room, Great bathroom, the grounds were beautiful and well maintained; the pool was very big and clean. Rampart casino which is connected is quiet, not smoky and (compared to the strip) has low limits with favorable rules/odds. |

| Nice area close to red rock canyon. Good alternative for those that want to be away from the strip but a little out of the way for those that are planning to spend a lot of time going to shows and strip restaurants. Although this Marriott hotel is non-smoking the casino does allow smoking and is not as well vented as some of the larger casinos. |

| While this is a beautiful resort & have stayed before, we were disappointed when the pool had been closed because another guest brought a baby into the pool without a swim diaper. Then of course, the baby defecated in the pool causing the resort to close the pool for 24 hours. That would be acceptable had the staff properly warned other guests and posted signs not to enter the pool. My young children waded into the pool, as did I, and were not stopped or told about the pool closure until after we had entered the water. It's quite disgusting, not to mention dangerous. They need to implement better procedures to protect other guests when some people allow their child to poop in the pool. Also the pillows in the rooms were lumpy. |

| The hotel is a resort property in a nice suburb of Las Vegas. Guests get priority and outstanding rates at the TPC Canyons golf course which is adjacent to the property (and one of the best courses in Las Vegas). While parking is not convenient (especially to the Palms Tower), valet parking is available free of charge. The property is well-maintained and attractive, with large pool, spa and exercise facilities. I would stay here again -- if solely to gain cheap rate at TPC golf course, although if you are coming to Las Vegas for the experience of the Strip, this would not be the place to stay, as it is pretty far removed from the Strip. |

| Hotel was comfortable everywhere I went, except to sleep. Bed was hard, over sized and regular sized pillows were awkward and uncomfortable. If all I wanted to do was go to bed and sleep I would have checked out the first night. |

| Beautiful property. Spacious, deluxe rooms. Comfortable bed. Clean. Lots of places to eat on the property. Very helpful staff. Excellent value. A little outside the strip, but much nicer than any hotel that I have stayed on the strip. |
