The sexy young clientele who stomp around the Wynn and the Venetian in short dresses and spiked heels don’t really make it over to Bally’s. There’s nothing particularly special about Bally’s casino, and we’d bet money that it could be easily swapped for some low-caliber Atlantic City lookalike without anyone noticing. Yet, unlike many Vegas hotels, the casino isn’t some kind of awe-inducing space of lights and sounds. Like many Vegas hotels, the casino is the first amenity guests lay eyes on as they enter the hotel (or wait on a notoriously long check-in line). Some suites have jetted tubs and awesome views of The Strip and the Eiffel Tower at the Paris next door.

Bathrooms feature large walk-in showers and sparkly white solid surface counter tops. Set away from the casino, this side of the hotel tends to be quieter at night. The Resort Tower is a better option for guests who’d like to sleep during their stay. Jubilee rooms have an appealing-at-first-glance retro-modern look, with fun red circle-print wallpaper dramatically high, white-upholstered headboards and white bedding with red accents that distracts from the dreary brown carpet and chairs. All of the rooms are spiffy and bright thanks to a 2013 renovation, but they're not so incredible that guests can overlook the noise.

Built above the casino, the Jubilee Tower is subject to nighttime disturbances. The earplugs guests receive upon check-in are probably the best indication of what this side of the hotel has in store. Bally’s is composed of two towers, Jubilee and Resort.
