A neon-lit tunnel ushers you from the heart of the Strip into Bally’s, offering good value in a prime location. At more than 500 square feet, the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The palm-fringed pool and spa, though small here, are musts for any Strip address. But what marquees Bally’s is its showroom, where the showgirl-driven Jubilee is frequently named best of its kind by locals. While Bally’s is old Las Vegas, it shares ownership, and a connecting walkway, with Paris Las Vegas, one of the Strip’s showiest hotels, convenient for its many shopping and dining options.
