For our last night in Las Vegas we stayed at the Planet Hollywood hotel and it was fantastic!  I have to admit I had a preconceived notion of what to expect given the reputation of the Planet Hollywood restaurant chain, but I couldn’t have been more wrong.  Naturally the decor is over the top, it is Vegas after all, but it’s contemporary and exquisitely done.  It does help that their primary color is purple which is my favorite color.  Even the towels in the rooms were purple!  This was by far a much better place to end our trip than the way we started it (see Las Vegas – Riviera).

As part of the Sheraton family of hotels, I think they did a superb job in the rooms.  The furniture was substantial and comfortable.  Dark wood, ample space, clean bathroom, and my favorite is their beds.  I think Sheraton beds stand out leaps and bounds above any other hotel I’ve stayed in to date.  It’s like sleeping on a cloud.

The casino was also well done…perhaps too well.  We completely lost track of time (yes I know that is what they are hoping for).  Pleasant and helpful staff for those of us who were novices to any of the games.  We didn’t spend time over at the Pleasure Pit but we could see if from where we played.  Given the name and being in Vegas, I was pleasantly surprised to see that while definitely sexy, it was still also tasteful.

I can’t wait to go back to the Planet Hollywood Hotel and hope to be able to catch Peepshow staring Holly Madison next time.
