Bad customer service everywhere
Customer service was unbelievably bad. From one nonsense encounter to the other. I would stay far away from this hotel until they are better trained. From poor check in procedure that took forever, to inappropriate pool behavior by employees, the place is up for grabs.

A solid choice in terms of amenties but there are also many other better choices on the Strip for the same price
Positives: * Spacious room * One of the better/upscale choices in the Excalibur/Luxor/Mandalay Bay stretch * Quiet Negatives: * Unprofessional staff and attitude: a) the front desk staff twisted and distorted the truth/reality on what the issue was when debriefing to her manager, Devon. Devon took it negatively and acted negative, saying I was being disrespectful when in reality it was them being disrespectful. * They can't scale or act fast enough to get the room ready if you arrive early. They made you wait; whereas many other properties on the strip can easily pull this off. W Hotel Vegas could not do it, and it turned into a draining experience. * Rigid in communication. Insisting their own ways rather than practice active listening. The room design/layout and amenities are solid and neck to neck compared to many hotels on the Strip. It's the service that broke this experience apart. It did not delight or wow me at all. I will not stay in this hotel, especially there are many other hotels on the Strip that can offer the same and/or better experiences for the same price, and also more centrally located on the Strip. I see nothing that sets them apart. Other comments: * The Skyfall Lounge and Foundation Room offer great panoramic view of the Strip, they were worth visiting once if you want good views. But no need to stay in these properties. * The tram traveling between Excalibur/Luxor/Mandalay Bay is the most confusing recreational transportation system I've ever seen. MGM basically made a simple thing very complicated. With more than 100+ countries traveled under my belt, I tried three times taking this tram and still unable to get a good handle on it. With this frustrating experience, that's when I concluded that I will avoid staying on this side of the Strip going forward, especially after visiting everyting I wanted to see and visit there. I don't see how this property can set themselves apart or compete other than compete through low price.

Great hotel, great views, good times
This hotel is very high end compared so others in the price range, rooms are to die for, we had the strip view so was just amazing! Less restaurants and no shops and only one bar here but is right next to Mandalay Bar, Luxor which has plenty. The beds are so comfy made it hard to get out of them! Great bathroom and all round lovely hotel to stay in . Watch out for the resort fees which were NOT mentioned beforehand and also the $400 hold fee that they also didn't mention. The resort fees are also taxed (as is everything in Vegas) so make sure you have funds for this. Right at the end of the strip so a bit further away but has a monorail to connect you to the first 3 hotels and you can walk or bus the rest. Make sure you visit the Skyfall bar at the top for breathtaking views.

Not really a W, more like an X
This hotel is not a typical W, and one to skip for now. It was recently rebranded from Delano, so maybe transition? Firstly - NO Bonvoy credit, only MGM points. This had a bait and switch feel. Second, everything has a charge, even $16 for a paper cup and coffee pod in your room. Third, the W pool was rarely open. Fourth, not even robes are provided…and after two requests we were handed two robes in a ball - not even folded. More Motel 6 than the W experience. I have stayed here before under the prior branding, and so far a huge step back.

W Hotel branding but not same quality
I'm a longtime W/Marriott customer and i have stayed the prior versions of this hotel tower when it was the Delano and The Hotel. The hotel has cut services and staffing. Zero changes in the rooms, with no good bathroom amenities which W Hotels has. More importantly there is no breakfast/lunch restaurant in the hotel just an empty space where they used to have a restaurant. Customer service/Whatever-Whenever is understaffed. The hotel is not W tier luxury level services. Beware if you have to get a package, you can't get it to your room. instead you have to go over to Mandalay Bay Convention center to pick it up from their Fedex, which is very far and time consuming. NOT W hotel type service. MGM just brands it as W, but without any of the customer service support you expect.
