The LINQ Hotel + Experience Overview

Right in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip, the recently rechristened LINQ Hotel + Experience is a budget hotel that attracts travelers who want to enjoy affordable luxury. 

The property features 2,460 modern clean rooms with decent in-room amenities, including pillow-top mattresses, 47-inch flat-screen TVs, and USB charging docks. It offers an on-site bar and lounges, a pool, a casino, and a bevy of restaurant options, including Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen, his only restaurant in Sin City.

The hotel is a magnet for younger party groups, thanks to its range of amenities. Whether you want to ride an exhilarating roller coaster, check out the exotic vehicle museum, bowl your heart out, or enjoy the ritzy nightlife, the Linq Hotel has got you covered. Free Wi-Fi, complimentary parking and the central location make this spot a favorite for partygoers who plan to spend more time outside their hotel rooms, than inside them. It’s on par with New York-New York Hotel & Casino in terms of the price point and amenities.

The hotel’s big draw is that the guest rooms are well-placed and affordable.
