This is an excellent place to stay if you don't want the craziness of the strip but want to be close to the strip. I just stayed here at the beginning of May (2008) for 3 nights. We had booked a studio apartment for $109/night (a special I found on the internet) and they upgraded us to a 1 bedroom apartment. Wow!!! What a deal. Compared to the standard hotel room, this place is definetly luxurious with a cute little dining/living area, fully equipped and very attractive kitchen, plush furnishings (the bed was sooo comfortable!), flat screen TVs, ipod docking station, AND a balcony (we ate breakfast there every morning). Where else can you get a deal like this close to the strip??!

A recent reviewer called it dirty!!?? I am dumbfounded by this accusation. This is something I always pay close attention to anywhere I go. Admittedly the pool lounges could use some updated cushions but other than that the pool area was a nice little haven. I sat in the jacuzzi and did not feel like it was dirty at all. The pool was heated and well maintained. There was beautiful landscaping around the pool. As far as the hallways and common areas, they were also very well-maintained (NOT dirty!). I am into being CLEAN and staying in a CLEAN and well-maintained facility. Our apartment was thoroughly cleaned every day and any employee I saw was always working hard to keep the place looking great.

I would rate this complex as Above Average (I would have given it Excellent ratings if the pool lounge cushions were updated and better maintained). But ya know, for the price, this place really can't be beat and I don't know how anybody could complain!

Underground/covered parking is a wonderful plus! Easy access to main roads and we felt very secrue as its a gated complex.

Location was good for us but we never walked to the strip. Honestly, I was a little bit surprised at the distance...its definately in walking distance but keep in mind its 2-3 gigantic blocks from the strip with several alleys and side roads in between the complex and the Blvd. Depending on where your accomodations are, it might take several minutes to just get to the main road outside the complex. I would say closer to a 15 minute walk to the strip. We always drove up to Imperial Palace (our friends were staying there) and used the valet. You already end up doing so much walking when you are on the strip and valet parking is free (just tip $1-2 when your car is returned), it just seemed more convenient.

My wife and I just returned from Las Vegas after staying at the Meridian Luxury Suites. What a wonderful place. It's quiet and well kept. The rooms are absolutely fabulous! The room has a modern kitchen with all of the amenities. In also had designer furniture, flat screen TV's in the living and bedroom. Marble countertops and tile floors. Even coordinated couch pillows!
They truly give you the 'luxury' in Luxury Suites. The pool area was very nice. They have a couple of tennis courts. The whole 'community' is security gated. Just a 5 to 10 minute walk from the Strip. Underground parking. I can't say enough about the venue. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. Once again, it's quiet!! No gambling machines, etc.. on the premises. If you want to pay high prices and be part of the herd on the strip .. then don't stay here. If you want to relax and then go out to the tourist spots when you have the urge .. definitely stay here! Will stay here again and again! Thank you Meridian!

I stayed at the Meridian in Las Vegas with my wife and kids and we loved it. The amenities were top notch, the kids loved the pool, I enjoyed the workout room. Our unit looked newly decorated and furnished and it was very clean. It's so close to the strip and the Meridian suites are perfect for families. The service was excellent as well. We would love to go back and stay there again next year.

I stayed at the Meridian while attending the NAB in April 2008. I was traveling with 2 colleagues, and all of us are non-smokers, and non-gamblers so the Meridian was perfect for us.

Perhaps we are more "low-maintenance" guests than some of the other writers, but we didn't have to have our rooms cleaned every day (although they were). The bathroom cabinet is stocked with at least half a dozen towels, so that's all we really needed.

We were more impressed with the spaciousness and attractiveness of the rooms, and the secure parking, than having someone at our every beck and call. After spending an entire day bumping into thousands of people at the NAB, the beauty and quietness of the Meridian was a nice change.

Since we had a rental car, transportation was not a problem and we were able to find a grocery store just a few blocks away.

One of my colleagues stated that he did not have hot water on one of the nights. He went to the front desk the next morning, and by the time we returned to our rooms that evening, the problem had been fixed. Also, the first night, the remote control for our garage didn't work. We stopped by the front desk and they fixed it instantly.

I honestly don't think the Meridian is for everyone. If you are looking for a hotel that will wait on you hand and foot, this is not that place, and honestly, you should probably be prepared to spend hundreds of dollars more to stay at a place like that. However, if your expectation is to stay at an upscale, gated hotel for an outrageously low price, and you're prepared to deal with maybe one or two inconveniences, then this is the place for you.
