Aria Vegas is part of the TPOL Won’t Visit All 50 States And That’s OK Trip Report.

Why do I always receive suite upgrades when I am unable to make the most use out of them? I was in Vegas for two nights. The first night I went back to my cheap, go-to option, the Hyatt Place for 9k points (see The Hyatt Place Las Vegas Review: No Dice). Arriving at midnight, it didn’t make sense to pay or use points for an on-strip option. And, given that my conference was at the UNLV Law School, Hyatt Place was ideal for the location. a sign in front of a building

The second night, I used an expiring Marriott stay cert and booked a room at the Aria. I didn’t arrive at the Aria until 8PM on a Friday. I was impressed yet disappointed that I would only have a few hours in this tower suite.

Bedroom

The bedroom was something else. It reminded me of my view in the Ascott Thonglor, my home during my Bangkok Residency.

Bathroom

What’s better than a bathroom that reminds you of home? a bathroom with a sink and a tub a shower with a tile wall a group of white bottles next to a towel

Don’t Touch Anything

Everything has a charge. Drink and party at your own peril.

Lounge

In addition to the suite upgrade, there is a lounge for refreshments (not alcohol) and light snacks which is accessible with the tower suite room key.
