Taking my first trip to Vegas since becoming a Diamond TR member via my Founders Card membership... I am looking for some feedback/reviews/tips for the various Diamond lounges in Vegas. Any input would be appreciated... Additionally, if there are any other Diamond benefits besides the waived resort fees and $100 comped dinner that would be much appreciated as well!
2 free show tickets every month. Check totalrewards both.
I agree that the 2 free diamond shows are a good benefit. Make sure to get tickets as soon as you arrive at Vegas as certain days and shows fills up.Quote:

There are a lot of lines at CET properties which have special Diamond/Seven Stars lines, which tend to be a lot shorter. This includes cashiers.
If you play on WSOP.com, you can e-mail them for a "status match", which will earn you 15% rakeback.
You can also use the Diamond registration room at the WSOP, which always has fairly short lines.
I only get to Vegas once per year, but I have been to all of the Diamond Lounges out there.Quote:

Anyway...here are my recollections and reviews...
Food-wise they are all pretty similar, mainly serving snacks...like chips & salsa, crudite, cheese, fruit and assorted deserts.
They will put out a few hot selections during brief periods each day...nothing elaborate...maybe chicken wings, taquitos, hot dogs, etc.
I do recall seeing spaghetti & meatballs at Harrah's one time, that was different.
All do not have a bar. Drinks are brought to the table by waitresses,
and there may be a limit to the number of drinks you can have...not sure about that.
The main difference I've found are the rooms themselves.
Here's how I rank them....
Harrah's - Harrah's has a decent-sized bar that you can sit at...and I'm a barfly...so Harrah's is my favorite.
Harrah's DL has a sports-bar feel to it, and the bar fills up with raucous regulars as soon as they open,
so it can be tough to get a seat at the bar. I've never encountered a limit to the number of drinks permitted there,
but that may be a function of tipping properly.
Planet Hollywood - PH's room is located in some spooky no-man's land on the mezzanine level,
but they have sofas and overstuffed chairs, while most of the others only have tables and chairs.
PH's lounge is a series of connecting rooms..no bar..but I fondly recall watching the World Cup
on an impressive 100 sq ft TV in one of the back rooms, and that's why I give it a high ranking.
Paris - Paris has the best location, right off the casino floor near the entrance to the promenade
that connects to Bally's. Nice room, tiny bar with a handful of seats at the bar, but otherwise plenty of seating.
Caesars - Nice room and similar to Paris to the best of my recollection, but located down the hall from
the Augustus Tower entrance/check-in. Not as isolated as PH's room, but not that easy to find either.
Rio - A visit to Rio's Diamond Lounge requires an elevator trip from the high-limit slot area.
It's a small elevator, and we have found a line to get on each visit...or attempted visit...sometimes we bail.
Also a series of interconnected rooms, they have some sofas and chair seating areas too,
and I believe they are the only DL in Vegas with windows to the outside world.
Flamingo - Didn't like it...reminded me of a cafeteria. I think we ended up going there once to check it out,
then a second time only because Harrah's was closed or something, but I don't expect to return.
Awesome review... Thank You!
