Best Moderate Resort In Vegas! Paris Las Vegas: A Slice of France in the Heart of the Strip

Since its debut in 1999, Paris Las Vegas has captivated visitors with its romantic and immersive atmosphere. The resort is known for its meticulously crafted Parisian streetscape, with cobblestone walkways, chic boutiques, and charming cafés. Its centerpiece, a half-scale replica of the Eiffel Tower, has become one of the Strip’s most recognizable landmarks.

Paris Las Vegas recently renovated the Versailles Tower, blending contemporary elegance with its signature French aesthetic as part of its ongoing commitment to modern luxury. We recently stayed in Paris, Las Vegas, to explore these new rooms. Check out our review and vlog, and keep reading for more on Paris Las Vegas and the Versaille Tower rooms.

The Newly Renovated Versailles Tower

We had the privilege of experiencing the Versailles Tower during our stay, which didn’t disappoint. This newly renovated hotel section offers some of the Strip's most spacious and stylish accommodations.

  • Room Highlights: Modern furnishings with a Parisian flair, plush bedding, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering breathtaking views of the Strip. The room we had faced the Eiffel Tower with a partial Bellagio Fountain view. This was lovely, to say the least, especially at sunset. The room is very comfortable and the brighter decor lightens up the room and makes it feel bigger. The theming is much less in these rooms but you will still feel the Paris touch with the vibrant blues and golds and of course Red, White and Blu curtains.f

  • Bathrooms: With luxurious marble finishes, a walk-in shower, and great bath products, the newly renovated Versaille Tower is brighter and nicer than its Paris tower counterparts.

  • Technology: The rooms have smart features, including touchscreen lighting and climate controls, USB ports, and high-speed Wi-Fi. They are also more modern and updated than the main Pais tower.

  • Location: This tower is closer to Horseshoe Las Vegas since it used to be part of that resort. The area is close to Paris and all the action, but it requires a commitment to walking through the sky bridge (all inside) to the Paris side. This is not always convenient when you want to access the amenities of Paris Las Vegas, such as the pool, dining, and casino. All in all, it is not a deal breaker but something you should consider.

The tower’s design strikes the perfect balance between chic and comfortable, making it a standout choice for Vegas travelers seeking style and substance.

Dining: A Culinary Trip Through France

Paris Las Vegas is a haven for food lovers, with dining options reflecting the richness of French cuisine. Here are just some highlights from Paris, Las Vegas. Check out our full Las Vegas Restaurant Playlist on YouTube for reviews on these and many more!

  1. Mon Ami Gabi: This Strip-front bistro is perfect for people-watching while enjoying classics like steak frites and onion soup gratinée. We dined here for brunch and went in a little nervous because of how much this place is talked about. Let’s just say it lives up to the hype. The French bistro’s food and service were exceptional, and we would highly recommend making a reservation and going to Mon Ami Gabi. We did a full Random Recess Restaurant Review on Mon Ami Gabi; check it out here.

  2. Eiffel Tower Restaurant: Dine with unparalleled views of the Strip and Bellagio fountains, serving refined French fare in an elegant setting.

  3. Gordon Ramsay Steak: The famed chef’s Vegas outpost delivers elevated steakhouse dishes with a British twist.

  4. Martha Stewart’s Bedford: The famous and sometimes infamous celebrity lifestyle chef and personality opened her first-ever restaurant in Paris, Las Vegas. The atmosphere, theming, and menu are all designed around Martha’s hometown of Bedford.The interior design will transport you to Martha’s home, where her amazingly curated and thoughtful menu will delight you. Check out our full review of Martha Stewart’s Bedford on YouTube.

  5. Vanderpump A Paris: One of Lisa Vanderpump’s signature restaurants and bars. After a rainy day in Paris, this French restaurant and cocktail lounge is everything Vanderpump in all the right and wrong ways. We dined here several times and filmed two different videos. Check out our first time at Vanderpump A Paris to see unique cocktails, designs, and food.

  6. Alexxa’s: During our stay at Paris Las Vegas, we enjoyed dining at Alexxa's, a vibrant restaurant and bar located within the resort. Situated at 3655 S Las Vegas Blvd, Alexxa's offers indoor and outdoor seating, providing breathtaking views of the iconic Bellagio Fountains and the bustling Las Vegas Strip. This is all included in our YouTube vlog, so check that out to see what the dinging is like.

Eiffel Tower and Rooftop Attractions

No visit to Paris Las Vegas is complete without a trip to the Eiffel Tower. The observation deck provides stunning 360-degree views of the Strip, especially at sunset. For those seeking a vibrant nightlife experience, Chateau Nightclub & Rooftop offers a party with a view. The restaurant has some of the best views in Vegas. The top of the Eiffel Tower has the most breathtaking views of Las Vegas. It is a must-do at least once. We recommend going up before sunset to maximize day and night viewing. Bring a jacket with you during the wintertime. It is windy in Las Vegas and even more so on top of the Eiffel Tower.

Pool and Amenities

Paris Las Vegas rooftop pool is a tranquil escape, with European-inspired design and private cabanas available for rent. The Soleil Pool overlooks the Eiffel Tower and Bellagio fountains, creating a serene yet iconic Vegas vibe.

Why Paris Las Vegas Stands Out

Paris Las Vegas is more than a hotel—a love letter to France with a modern Vegas twist. The newly renovated Versailles Tower elevates the experience, offering luxury accommodations that match the resort’s rich ambiance. The resort is one of the last remaining fully themed hotels in Vegas. We think it will survive because Paris can be both a fun and vibrant theme along with classic and classy in this modern age of Las Vegas-themed resorts. With world-class dining, spectacular views, and chic amenities, Paris Las Vegas is perfect for anyone looking to add a touch of romance and elegance to their Vegas adventure. As more and more hotels move towards the modern esthetic (cough, cough, Fontainebleau), it’s nice to be surrounded by beauty and grace and fully immersed in the Paris esthetic. Yes, it’s goddy and over-the-top, but so is Las Vegas, and these themed resorts should be cherished before they are all gone.
