I want to give you a massive thank you! I recently moved to vegas and due to your videos, i figured out the best hotels to work at, and recently got hired at the wynn. They tailor your uniform for you and dry clean it after every shift! Thank you so much!!
I think it's because you have to hire a ride to the strip, downtown, more off strip properties. It's not walkable at night, especially. The property itself is a gem. It's amazing...but a little bit lonely. This was my view of it lately in my daytime visit.
The Hard Rock Hotel used to cater to a young crowd interested in nice rooms, good dining and pool experience. The casino and other venues in the resort were most of the time quiet. Virgin changed the place and the same crowd came back. It seems even better than the Hard Rock with nicer dining options.
Glad you made it to Virgin! Just returned from my 8th visit there after years of being a Hard Rock patron. My visits are short, so I rarely get bored. Your review, both pros and cons are spot on. Sorry to see Money Baby’s closed now… hope something opens that space before football season.
Virgin mainly suffers from a "too many cooks in the kitchen" sort of approach: where when you really take a look at who's running and managing all the components of this property, it's a bit all over the place. And I feel that patchwork vibe explains why some parts of the property are full of life while others aren't. Otherwise, I have a great deal of respect for them for all they accomplished. It really does look beautiful as I'm a sucker for Southwestern themes and decor and Elias Beach Club is actually one of my favorite day clubs in Vegas now. =) I have to say I'm surprised you didn't dock points for its location. I'm glad you didn't obviously, but considering some of the worst crime in all of Vegas is concentrated where Virgin stands and knowing some of your previous reviews on places you shouldn't walk outside of after night, I just found it interesting you didn't touch on that with this one. Again, I feel resorts should be evaluated on what they are and what they have to offer, not location, and am glad you did that with this one. =) Can't wait to see where you go now that your heroic Vegas trip is over! =D
In your opinion, would it be safe to walk from Virgin Hotel to Club Wyndham Grand Desert (10 min walk according to google maps) at like 8/9pm? It would be with my spouse and 2 small kids with our luggage since we're checking out and in of those hotels I previous named.
@@wesleywang6579 I've done it numerous times personally, whether it be from there or Alexis Park, but it's all subjective. I never felt unsafe doing so, but it's just a reflection on personal experience and philosophy. It's just kind of mind over matter. The only reason I brought it up here is because James mentioned crime and "seedy elements" in his original MGM Grand review as well as a recent STRAT review. I know crime and immediate surroundings are a concern to him. And the fact is statistically in 2019, East Harmon Avenue and Paradise Road received the second most calls to police (1,283) of ANY part of Vegas for various types of crime (only McCarran International Airport received more). So I just found it interesting it didn't cross his mind in the review was all.
To pay with Hilton points Virgin is 52K points on a Sunday I chose, which is more than the Conrad. That's ~$200 in points value while cash price is $141. Add in $45 resort fee and away from the Strip, and this is a permanent nogo for me. I was tempted when they had just opened and advertised no extort fee.
@@pat3464 Yet all of the other Virgin properties don't charge the fee, yet have a nightly Comped GM's Cocktail Hour, with food. Oddly, this property, does none of that?
@@bodyloverz30 I stopped by there in Marck and counted 17 people in the whole place gambling. They had 3 blackjack tables, 1 craps, and 1 roulette all $25+ minimums. I don't see them being around long.
Long time viewer, first time commenter. Really enjoyed the epic vegas trip. Great informative and entertaining videos! Can't wait for the next Vegas trip.
Wow I haven’t been there in years and everything has changed! Looks good! Did they get rid of the circle bar in the casino and the swim up bar that had blackjack?
Excellent review. Property looks great but it’s like it has no overall center. I don’t mean a theme, just no real soul or vibe. Looks very corporate; as if they are only going through the motions. Real shame as I had this down as a possible future stay. They are going to have to do better if they plan on getting people away from the strip hotels. Could hardly believe that was a weekend crowd. Hopefully they will get it together. One thing for sure, you have your RUclips game together! Great job James!
This review sold it for us, we'll be going early November and I think we are going to have a blast! Thanks James for all your reviews, they truly have helped us make the right choices in Vegas. I love the new '3 positives & 3 negatives' you've started on the channel. Hope you keep that going as it's incredibly helpful. Going on a cruise in 2 weeks and will be in Cabo. If you're around in the area still would love to buy you a drink good sir!
I am heading to Vegas in November for the first time in several years and I am so excited for the trip, thanks in part to your videos pumping me up for the experience! I got a great deal at the Bellagio and I can't wait to try some of the drink options you highlighted in your video for the property! Thank you for your work in assembling these videos and getting so many of them out in a timely manner!
Definitely have to check out Kassi's when we come on our next trip. Love the room, but not sure I want to stay off the strip. We're there for 6 days and I prefer to stay in the middle of the strip. Great hotel though. Love the renovations!
I hated the virgin hotel…it was lifeless, soulless……when it was the hard rock it had a pulse, it always felt alive…. I used to live right next door, and would walk to the the hard rock almost everyday…. Talked to so many celebrities there… it’s a shame what they did do it…. Just my opinion
I know I have said this before, but your shots are just beautiful! You have such smooth movement and transitions that your videos are really a pleasure to watch. Thank you for doing what you do! ❤
Thank you for ALL the LV reports. Looking forward to the "How much did it Cost" at Virgin. Keep in mind, most people who come to Vegas don't spend their time exclusively on property like you do. We explore. You mention in many reviews it would only take 2 days to get bored at some properties. We'd last longer because we'd go off site.
I personally love going off-site and adventuring whenever I'm staying anywhere in Vegas, but I do completely get and appreciate why James usually only goes to on-site restaurants and lounges. His approach just provides the most comprehensive and authentic look into what a place has to offer. It's part of the reason why he's one of the best reviewers overall and THE best Vegas-related reviewer (I know he's a world travel RUclipsr, not just Vegas, but I say that because he mops the floor with everyone else in terms of how comprehensive and authentic his Vegas-related reviews are whereas most others are style but no substance) on RUclips. =) My only major criticism of Coolist is, in my opinion, a glaring inconsistency in his own grading rubric as especially reflected in location. Outside of that and some of his more recent reviews feeling a bit more hurried, he's EASILY still the best in my opinion. =)
I was there in April and enjoyed my stay. I appreciated the dining options though I wish they had been open later into the evening. Also, with plenty of space available on the premises I would have appreciated an 18+ pool. The grounds were well kept. I would definitely stay again, especially if there was an event that interested me on site. We spent quite of bit of money taking Lyfts to the strip, that was probably the only downfall. I wanted to stay here because I have been to the Virgin Hotel in Chicago and that was EXCEPTIONAL.
Thank you for the review. I usually stay at one of the MGM hotels. But I'm kinda of done with them now. My wife and I are older. But we like the energy of the younger generation. Every time I look in the mirror I say to myself where did this old guy come from
4455 Paradise Road will always be HARD ROCK CAFE with its massive Gibson Guitars; one RESTORED by Neon Museum AVN EXPO & AWARDS returns to Paradise Road in January 2025. HARD ROCK CAFE was PERFECT at this location with The Joint being the venue for many events. Virgin Hotels is: Desert lifestyle and Drag Queens I didn't KNOW Hard Rock Cafe THAT WELL but it definitely HAD more personality and pulse than Virgin Hotels THEN AGAIN it's prolly because I need to make NEW memories at Virgin Hotels with Hard Rock building their new hotel in Mirage former space It's just weird yet essential for growth and evolution
Your videos are so pro! So enjoyable! If I was a CEO of any of these properties I would try to employ you in New York minute to improve the experience. 💕✌
Kassi Beach Club was amazing! Loved the vibe and the entrees & drinks were on point! Virgin definitely gives you a reason to go off strip to hang out (or stay).
Couldn't agree more. If I am coming to Vegas for a fight night this is the best hotel to recharge at but if I'm with a bunch of friends nah, their just isn't much to do on property. BUT you did fail to mention one really badass thing this hotel does offer. And that's free valet. Also when they first opened they had NO RESORT FEE which was a huge plus but alas that didn't stay. But yea as a hotel it's awesome, as a resort it's just okay.
Great review of this prop. We saw this from our window at the Elara and will definitely stay here. We stayed at the Elara during peak summer time and it was a shitshow. I have to think this Virgin prop would be a bit better further into the future, but who knows. Thank you for this review as we can see ourselves there possibly this year.
All that food looks scrumptious. I like your wardrobe too, very apropos to be dressed well when critiquing, unlike so many other channels with team jersey /ball cap wearing reviewers. 😉
I love Olives. I was sad that it left Bellagio, but so happy it popped up inside Virgin. Life is Fresh is one of my favorite cocktails, and u nailed it with the beef carpaccio! (So good, but very filling).
Where do you buy your Suits? those look really nice, Not bad the virgin Vegas, the Virgin Chicago is terrible, in case someone on this chat ever goes to Chicago, , are you ever checking Austin, I know is not that high tourist traffic area, but there are a few good hotels and party areas near the hotels?
James, if I'm remembering correctly from a while ago, you were anti-steakhouse reviews because they're sort of all the same business dinner menus. Now all I'm seeing is steakhouse after steakhouse! +1 vote from me to bring back the more unique coolist spots when possible. Enjoying the content either way - safe travels!
Used to enjoy looking at the memorabilia at the Hard Rock. Also enjoyed Lucky Sevens restaurant. Visited recently, hotel was quiet didn’t need to go back.
Hey, didn’t get the must visit vibe from this or maybe the energy vibe is gone from 30 nights in Vegas!!!! Wow and thank you for the valuable info this trip. I’m headed to Vegas Friday and sure to hit some sky bars, Circa, Tropicana, and staying central at the Bellagio. What is next? Couple weeks of straight sleep then beach vibes? ☀️🌴
You hit the nail on the head ... potential. They have most if not all the pieces for a top 5 hotel here, it just seems like their marketing department sucks and they really didn't give it the big intro to Vegas it deserved as a new hotel. Because it pretty much is ... Hard Rock was a totally different hotel and theme, Virgin is refreshing and tropical but its just missing the vibe. Not sure if they are charging resort fees but if so, that needs to be number 1 on the hit list.
Really liked the room, especially the headboard, and loved the black evening attire! Too bad about the casino being dead, not fun without a bunch of people.
I stopped by the Virgin in April of this year, and couldn't agree more with your review. The whole place was empty... There were literally more floor employees than gamblers.
Great review, dude! I like what Virgin did to the property, the refresh on the entire place is awesome. The Hard Rock had seen it's day, a great place to stay and party in the old days. But the hotel is tits now
DEAR JAMES, GOD BLESS YOU MY FRIEND. I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU AND VERY HAPPY FOR YOU. I HOPE ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE. I HOPE YOU HAD THE BEST AND HAPPIEST CHRISTMAS OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFE AND THE BEST AND HAPPIEST 4TH OF JULY OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. THE VIRGIN LOOKS BEAUTIFUL. 🙏 SINCERELY PETER
Still sad that the HARD Rock is gone....another few years before they return. Hard Rock had that vibe....Rock n Roll still ruled...Porn Stars after the AVN's....tons of ladies attending the MAgic Mike show! Miss that place... I guess I'll have to check the Virgin out this week.
So do they not have a nightclub or lounge scene here? I know they still have concerts there. I am just wondering what the main draw would be to stay there now as an off strip resort. The Palms has some great nightlife and the Strat is a value hotel with a high profile restaurant and observation deck/rollercoaster. It seems like a place like this will need to establish some sort of an identity in order to succeed being isolated and off strip. Especially if it costs about as much as a strip resort. Especially once the newness wears off.
somethings missing? What's missing is a night club with live music (not a live DJ) It has a lawn event and the theater you should go back when thirds eye blind is on august 12th or papa roach. I think that is what is missing a all star night club and or something like the piano bar but bigger. There should be a roof top dinner and bar. when it comes to gambling they need to install more video poker and keno machines really fill in the space. They just need to have a free shuttle to the strip like the trump tower or vouchers for taxi/uber lyft service. Let it run from noon to midnight take guest to the miracle mile shops drop off pick up and then come back.
Another great video! I don't know that I'd stay there, I like Wynn/Encore too much, but your video certainly got me curious about checking out One Steakhouse (I did love the Morton's in Minneapolis). While I don't know that I'd stay at Virigin in Las Vegas, I've been wanting to take a weekend trip to Chicago and have been looking at the Virgin Hotel there as the place to stay. And re: Todd English, any plans in the future to visit his new boutique hotel in Vegas?
I want to give you a massive thank you! I recently moved to vegas and due to your videos, i figured out the best hotels to work at, and recently got hired at the wynn. They tailor your uniform for you and dry clean it after every shift! Thank you so much!!
You really do put a lot of work into your reviews, and it shows. Nice job, & continued success with the channel.
I agree. He puts in a lot of work on these videos. The whirlwind tour he's been on would make even a 20 year old tired as heck
I think it's because you have to hire a ride to the strip, downtown, more off strip properties. It's not walkable at night, especially. The property itself is a gem. It's amazing...but a little bit lonely. This was my view of it lately in my daytime visit.
I agree free shuttle service to the strip will up its game.
Yes it definitely is sitting alone
Haha love your comment: Very Yo Yo & Very Yin Yang! So true! Fun and informative! Great vid bro!

It’s great to see you killing it!
Would love to see you stay at some of the mega resorts off the strip like Green Valley Ranch, and Red Rock.
Love all your Vegas videos 😍😍 I’ve watched them all!! Keep them coming!
Wow I haven’t been there in years and everything has changed! Looks good! Did they get rid of the circle bar in the casino and the swim up bar that had blackjack?

Killed it again James! Thank you!
Virgin is the place to go if you want to avoid a large crowd and chill in quiet place.
Cool jacket! Where is it from?
Been there last month. The hotel just like a Ghost town during weekday!!!
thats whats happens when the people in Suits try to manage Hotels
@@fatlu1378 they charged $51 for resort fee. Never come back again.
One day we will see a high roller jackpot off that 100$. Great music in your videos.

Did you forget to mention The Theater and 24 Oxford? They offer great live entertainment. Also, Pizza Forte has some awesome pizza.
Another top video....can't wait to be back in vegas
You hit the nail on the head ... potential. They have most if not all the pieces for a top 5 hotel here, it just seems like their marketing department sucks and they really didn't give it the big intro to Vegas it deserved as a new hotel.

Really liked the room, especially the headboard, and loved the black evening attire! Too bad about the casino being dead, not fun without a bunch of people.
Great video!
Legend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can tell you need some sleep. Great Video!
great video
I love it there and no resort fees this place is huge and it's like 2 miles from the strip
The STK shade always has me rollinnnnnn🤣
I stopped by the Virgin in April of this year, and couldn't agree more with your review. The whole place was empty... There were literally more floor employees than gamblers.
Seeing that this place is right next to Hofbrauhaus Las Vegas alone could motivate me to stay here for a few days.
Do you recommend making reservations for these restaurants? If so how early in advance? Thanks for the help! Staying here later this year.
I would love to see a Thailand hotels review...
Because of you, I'm going to Circa next week. Now I want to go to Virgin; oh well one at a time a guess.
Wait, this looks so familiar, I think you've already done a Virgin review🤔
Did you know he has a cruise line now. If you can review that for us that will be nice.
Does any cafe there still have the 777 special (shrimp and steak)?
Thanks for all your reviews feels like we are there with you ?
Olives going here from the Bellagio… for me… seemed it was like a downgrade Todd. Not sure what happened or why Todd moved Olives here.
Great review, dude! I like what Virgin did to the property, the refresh on the entire place is awesome. The Hard Rock had seen it's day, a great place to stay and party in the old days. But the hotel is tits now
New song in intro huh? Lol I watch too many of these
Could u please do mexico all inclusive. Loved the posts about the Dominican all inclusive.
K you convinced me to star at the Virgin on my next Vegas trip
I would never go there now it's a virgin. I do not want to mess-up those awesome hard rock hotel memories...
You forgot about cruise 🚢 ships. They touch those as well!
Thanks for video
DEAR JAMES,
GOD BLESS YOU MY FRIEND. I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU AND VERY HAPPY FOR YOU. I HOPE ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE. I HOPE YOU HAD THE BEST AND HAPPIEST CHRISTMAS OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFE AND THE BEST AND HAPPIEST 4TH OF JULY OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. THE VIRGIN LOOKS BEAUTIFUL. 🙏

I miss Hard Rock. Rehab was greatest pool party ever. I have to visit Virgin. I’ve never been to any of their hotels.
Hard Rock will be on the strip soon where the Mirage is now
I liked your older video's where you give a more in depth food and drink reviews!
I just do full in-depth videos on restaurants now (if warranted)
Did virgin hotels keep the old hard rock pool??? Thanks
Still sad that the HARD Rock is gone....another few years before they return. Hard Rock had that vibe....Rock n Roll still ruled...Porn Stars after the AVN's....tons of ladies attending the MAgic Mike show! Miss that place... I guess I'll have to check the Virgin out this week.
Nice!
I walked in and did a quick walk around on the casino floor, but nothing made me want to stay here, so I walked right out.
I feel the same as a local and it was just meh. Pieces are there just nothing could come together
Yo what blazer you got in in the intro?
Hope you rewiew the red rock hotel casino i was there plasant surprise defently favorite off strip property
So do they not have a nightclub or lounge scene here? I know they still have concerts there. I am just wondering what the main draw would be to stay there now as an off strip resort. The Palms has some great nightlife and the Strat is a value hotel with a high profile restaurant and observation deck/rollercoaster.
It seems like a place like this will need to establish some sort of an identity in order to succeed being isolated and off strip. Especially if it costs about as much as a strip resort. Especially once the newness wears off.
somethings missing? What's missing is a night club with live music (not a live DJ) It has a lawn event and the theater you should go back when thirds eye blind is on august 12th or papa roach. I think that is what is missing a all star night club and or something like the piano bar but bigger. There should be a roof top dinner and bar. when it comes to gambling they need to install more video poker and keno machines really fill in the space. They just need to have a free shuttle to the strip like the trump tower or vouchers for taxi/uber lyft service. Let it run from noon to midnight take guest to the miracle mile shops drop off pick up and then come back.
bro, if you make 1vid/day I would watch all of them
Looks like a cross between a Virgin airport clubhouse, and a Miami Beach hotel.
interesting review
I have no doubt this is advertising video. There was a negative review video created a while ago. This definitely is to counter that negative review.
Seems like a mini Cosmo

Another great video!
I don't know that I'd stay there, I like Wynn/Encore too much, but your video certainly got me curious about checking out One Steakhouse (I did love the Morton's in Minneapolis).
While I don't know that I'd stay at Virigin in Las Vegas, I've been wanting to take a weekend trip to Chicago and have been looking at the Virgin Hotel there as the place to stay.
And re: Todd English, any plans in the future to visit his new boutique hotel in Vegas?
