Agree on Cosmopolitan - great hotel and location. The W and SLS are a bit down on the strip but also nice hotels. The Westin is so-so. The Renaissance of the strip can also work for reasonable points and is walking distance to the tram.

Cosmo. If platnum you get their brunch buffet for free which is one of the best on the strip.

Cosmo is best spot on the strip....

SLS and W work well, good rate specials if you don’t want to burn points (I got $39 night SLS recently). Good to be away from full chaos but only a short Lyft or even monorail down to the middle of it all

LA1 - was there last year and there were next to no perks for Platinum. Has this changed?

Damn... Must have changed then. Last time I was there was 2013.

Following this as I’ll be there in less than 2 months..

Spg is bare bones - there may be an element there but its not anywhere near strip

LA1, unless something has changed since January, breakfast is not free for Marriott Platinum or even Platinum Premier.

Yeah, it has changed. I've been there 5 times the last 3 years and as A4 states, there is nearly jack squat with regards to benefits.

Cosmo is the best. The W and SLS are part of the same complex, but they are down by the Stratosphere. It has free self parking.

Thanks everyone! I'm staying at the Westin today, their executive suites are pretty solid. Going to Grand Canyon, Zion, antelope canyon for a few days but coming back to the cosmo based on recs. Downside is Marriott charges the $40 resort fee on top of the 45k points required (converted 10k SPG over to cover). $200 rooms this weekend but the SPG valuation at 2.7 cents per point makes it about $405 🤷🏻‍♂️

I asked the same thing a few months ago and I was recommended the W. If I were to go again I would choose the Cosmo hands down

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time

Have you talked about your wedding with coworkers? I made the mistake of saying I had to leave work a little early one day because I was going to do a tasting at my venue. That starts a debate on why one shouldn’t get married, how much wedding costs & what a waste it is, dresses are stupid because you only wear them once, etc. I haven’t talked about my wedding much, but I didn’t appreciate this. I ignored the negative comments and we moved the conversation along. Not talking about that anymore!
