A grand debut

Resorts World Las Vegas is the first new casino-resort to be constructed on the Strip in more than a decade.

Among its features are high-tech LED screens throughout the property, three hotels, nine pools, 117,000 square feet of gaming space, 70,000 square feet of dining and retail space and 250,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space.

Three hotels, three entrances

Three Hilton brands reside within the towers of Resorts World Las Vegas and each brand has its own entry and porte-cochere.

Guests can access their hotel without having to wend their way through a casino.

Crockfords is one of only eight properties in Hilton's luxury LXR brand. The Las Vegas hotel's 236 guestrooms and suites fill floors 60 through 66 of the east tower. They range in size from 550 to 7,000 square feet. Amenities include such as butler service, full room service, and access to private gaming salons.

Conrad Las Vegas is Hilton’s contemporary luxury brand. With 1,496 rooms and suites, it occupies floors 15 through 59 of the east tower. Rooms range from 550 to 2,800 square feet and curated art can be found in the lobby, hallways and rooms.

Las Vegas Hilton

The Las Vegas Hilton at Resorts World has roughly 1,774 rooms ranging from 400 to 3,300 square feet, filling the entire west tower. More affordable than either Conrad Las Vegas and Crockfords, the rooms are described by Resorts World as having “smart, luxurious amenities in a comfortable and refined setting."

LED displays cover resort towers

Mesh is increasingly popular for signage because of its high transparency, mobility and slim design. It can be used or everything from a stage backdrop to a media facade that covers an entire building.
