The LINQ Hotel + Experience

The LINQ Hotel + Experience is a hotel and casino at 3535 S Las Vegas Blvd, in the Center Strip of Las Vegas, Nevada, at the western end of the open-air LINQ Promenade. The resort was previously the Imperial Palace and was rebranded as the LINQ in 2014, with a modern, youthful style aimed at visitors who want a central base at a moderate price. Its location is hard to beat for walkers, with the High Roller observation wheel and the Promenade shops immediately outside, Caesars Palace and the Flamingo across the Strip, and the Monorail's Flamingo/Caesars Palace station a short walk away. Harry Reid International Airport is around fifteen minutes by car. Rooms are compact and contemporary, with Deluxe King, Double Queen and suite options, and many were redesigned in a streamlined style with simple decor and large windows. Some rooms overlook the Promenade or the High Roller, which gives lively views but also more noise, so quiet-seeking guests may prefer upper floors or the back of the tower. The Promenade contains casual restaurants, bars, shops and entertainment, including the Brooklyn Bowl venue for concerts and bowling. The resort has a casino with slots and table games, a pool deck and a fitness centre, and there is no large buffet or theatre complex inside. The service character is straightforward, geared toward younger visitors, groups and value-conscious travellers who spend most of their time outside the hotel. Typical nightly rates run from roughly $80 to $280, with a mandatory resort fee of roughly $45 to $55 per night. Parking is charged for both valet and self-park garages, and it is a short indoor walk from the garage to the casino floor.
