Bottom Line

The 2,024-room New York-New York Hotel and Casino is an upper-middle-range themed property with a roller coaster located right on the Strip, within easy walking distance of casinos, shops, and bars. The property offers all the usual features found at most other Vegas resorts -- including a lively casino and multiple restaurant options such as a buffet and steakhouse -- but the mellow vibe and huge arcade with dozens of machines make it more suitable for families than for young partiers. Rooms, while spacious and comfortable, have seen better days and lack coffeemakers and mini-fridges, though that’s common for Vegas. An outdoor pool, roller coaster, dueling piano bar, and provocative Cirque du Soleil show are some of the property’s standout features. Rates are reasonable for the location, but families looking to stay on the northern end of the Strip may want to compare rates at Treasure Island Hotel & Casino.

New York – New York Hotel and Casino

What Are the Design and Scene Like at New York-New York Hotel and Casino?

This past-its-prime, artificial New York City property has solid family attractions and low rates.

Las Vegas is home to a replica Roman Empire (Caesar's) and a faux Eiffel Tower (Paris), and so, of course, it has its own New York City as well. Welcome to New York-New York Las Vegas, where guests can grab a bite in the "Village" stroll over the "Brooklyn Bridge" or play video games at "Coney Island." Sure, it's all a little cheesy, but every Vegas hotel worth its salt needs a theme and what could be better than the Big Apple? The hotel has been refreshed a couple of times in the last decade, but it is feeling a tad tired and worn overall, especially the rooms.

Unlike the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino -- its sister property across the street -- this hotel is rather mellow. The pool scene is fun and lively but light-years from the party atmosphere found at other Strip resorts. There are no famous DJs spinning house beats, or Spring break-like parties at New York-New York Las Vegas but rather families lounging in the sun and having a chill time. With its own in-house roller coaster -- the cars look like NYC taxis -- and reasonable rates, New York-New York Hotel and Casino is a popular option for travelers looking for a mellower Strip hotel.

Where is New York-New York Hotel and Casino Located in Las Vegas?

It's on the lively southern end of the Las Vegas Strip.

New York-New York is located close to the southern end of the densely packed four-mile-long stretch of hotel-casinos known as the Strip, and across from the MGM Grand (a pedestrian overpass connects the two hotels). There are plenty of shops, restaurants, and casinos within a short walk of the hotel, including the LINQ and CityCenter.

For visitors wanting to explore all of the big properties along the Strip, cabs are easy to find at virtually any time of day or night. A generally less expensive option is the Deuce, a double-decker bus that runs up and down the strip 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There's also a monorail system, which stops at MGM Grand across the street. The New York-New York Hotel and Casino is a 10-minute cab ride from McCarran International Airport.

Ride-share services such as Uber and Lyft operate in Las Vegas.

What Are Rooms Like at New York-New York Hotel and Casino?

Comfortable yet worn rooms have free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, and hairdryers; some provide expansive Strip views.

The hotel has 2,024 rooms and suites, divided into several categories named after New York avenues or landmarks. Decor is classic but a tad bland and dated, consisting of simple wood furniture, generic brown carpets, padded headboards in purple hues, and seating in a neutral palette with throw pillows in darker shades. Rooms are also beginning to show some wear and tear -- especially in carpets, walls, and furniture -- and some guests have reported maintenance issues in bathrooms.

Starting at 350 square feet, the New York-New York Casino hotel rooms are spacious and have large windows, some of which offer expansive Strip views. Bed configurations include one king or two queen-size beds, all with pillow-top mattresses and plush duvets. Rooms come in two main types: Park Avenue and Madison Avenue. The only difference between them is size -- the latter are 50 square feet bigger than the former. The hotel also offers a number of suites -- ranging from 500-square-foot Spa units to 1,100-square-foot Penthouses -- all of which feature four-person jetted tubs in the room, plus sitting areas. Higher-tier suites have dining tables and wet bars.

In-room amenities are rather basic for the price, and include flat-screen TVs, electronic safes large enough for a laptop, and hairdryers. Property-wide Wi-Fi is included in the daily resort fee. Suites -- except entry-level Spa units -- add mini-fridges and Bose sound systems. Coffeemakers are available on request -- for a fee in rooms and free of charge in suites.

Bathrooms are clad in either marble or granite, and feature one or two sinks, walk-in showers or shower/tub combos, and a range of toiletries. Higher-tier suites come stocked with upgraded shower gel and shampoo.

What Restaurants and Bars are at New York-New York Hotel and Casino?

There are a huge range of dining options, including a steakhouse, fast-food joints, and an Asian buffet restaurant.

The New York-New York Las Vegas restaurants are multiple and varied. Food generally gets good reviews, and with such a huge range of options there’s likely to be something to please every taste and budget. Twelve restaurants serve anything from Irish pub fare to pizza, sushi, and Mexican food. Gallagher Steakhouse is a popular pick, as are Shake Shack and Il Fornaio, offering burgers and Italian classics, respectively.

Chin Chin Café & Sushi Bar is the New York-New York’s buffet, open for breakfast and lunch and offering dozens of options, mostly Asian. Guest can also dine at the MGM Grand Buffet, which is located at sister property MGM Grand and connected to the New York-New York via a skybridge. It is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and offers plenty of international options, as well as Champagne brunch. America, serving up American cuisine, is the only spot open 24/7.

Those looking to grab a quick bite can head to the Village Street Eateries, a large dining and entertainment center designed to resemble New York City’s Greenwich Village and offering dozens of fast-food joints, including pizza, sandwiches, and pastries.

Nathan’s hot dogs, Starbucks, a creperie, and a pastry shop are also some of New York-New York Casino Hotel restaurants, along with a number of bars, the most coveted of which is the Bar at Times Square, a dueling piano bar with live music and a popular happy hour.

Room service is available 24/7, and the hotel offers dinner and show packages.

What's the Pool Like at New York-New York Hotel and Casino?

The hotel's pool is small and mellow, with several whirlpools.

The New York-New York Las Vegas pool is small and seasonal but pleasantly mellow, which is a nice change compared to some rowdy Las Vegas pools like those at the Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand. A handful of cabanas are available for rent, and there is a whirlpool that guests can use free of charge. On weekends, finding a lounge chair can be difficult. The pool has a bar, and poolside food and beverage service is available.

What Features Are Available at New York-New York Hotel and Casino?

A roller coaster, casino, world-class shows, spa and gym, arcade, and meeting space are all found here.

Known for being one of the few in town, the New York-New York Las Vegas roller coaster is a highlight here. Guests board indoors next to the arcade before being barreled outside at speeds up to 65 mph. The ride has a 180-degree twist and a steep dive. For couples looking for a dramatic beginning to their life together, the hotel also offers a roller-coaster wedding.

At 84,000 square feet, the New York-New York casino is medium-sized but lively, with 1,500 slots, 67 gaming tables, and a Central Park theme. Smoking is allowed inside the casino, which is common in Vegas.

Zumanity at New York-New York Hotel & Casino is the other major hotel feature. The popular Cirque du Soleil performance is for adults only and is a mix of burlesque and cabaret. Tickets aren’t cheap, but those wanting to catch the show without breaking the bank can purchase a Cabaret Stool or Balcony Seat ticket, which are on par price-wise with other major Las Vegas shows. Other entertainment options include live music, DJ sessions, a piano bar, and weekly events at Brooklyn Bridge and the two arenas located at MGM Grand.

A standard range of services are available at the spa, including massages, waxing, manicures and facials, and there is a small hydrotherapy area that guests can use for a fee. The gym offers a decent range of cardio and strength-training machines in a room with natural light and city views. Bottled water and towels are available free of charge.

Other hotel amenities include a huge arcade with video and carnival-style games, self- and valet parking (both for a fee) with in-and-out privileges, and multiple shops. Business guests are catered to with over 30,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 9,500-square-foot ballroom, and a business center with shipping, faxing, copying, and notarization services.

Up to two dogs are allowed in some rooms for a fee. Dogs cannot exceed a maximum combined weight of 100 pounds. The hotel also offers a pet relief area and dog-sitting services.

The mandatory daily resort fee covers services such as property-wide Wi-Fi, local calls, airline boarding pass printing, two-for-one roller coaster passes, and access to the gym.
