Las Vegas Hotels With a Balcony - Specific Room Types


Key Points:

  • Hotels with an outdoor balcony are rare in Vegas; however, a few hotels offer them.
  • The Cosmopolitan is a top option for "balcony seekers", with a large number of rooms & suites that offer them.

Las Vegas is meant to be seen, and nothing beats sitting out on a hotel room balcony watching the lights of Sin City come to life.

Unfortunately, most Las Vegas hotels don't offer balconies... or windows that open, for that matter. Likely because people jump. But also because maintaining hundreds... or thousands... of sliding doors is also challenging.

But I think it's more about the jumper thing.

Anyway.

Some rooms in Las Vegas still come with a balcony, ready for those looking for fresh air.

On The Strip

The Cosmopolitan

Among my favorite Las Vegas hotels with a balcony, The Cosmopolitan's "Terrace Rooms" offer some of the best views of the Strip available. When booking, opt for a "Terrace Studio", "Terrace Suite", or "Wraparound Terrace Suite".

Essentially, if the room title has the word "Terrace" in it, you'll have a walk-out balcony.

For my money, nothing beats enjoying a meal on a balcony overlooking the Fountains of Bellagio below.

The Cosmopolitan's base "City Room" and "City Studio" don't have a balcony.

I've loved my stays in these suites at The Cosmopolitan, and they're all getting renovated as part of a project kicking off in 2027.

My wife's and my first balcony experience at The Cosmopolitan was magical. A lot has changed in this picture since that stay, but the view still wails.

Polo Towers

Every room at Polo Towers has a balcony, although they're typically only large enough to fit a couple of chairs.

That should be OK, though, since most people don't need much room for activities besides taking in the view.

"Polo Tower Suites" have a Strip view, while "Polo Tower Villas" face the other direction. Still pretty, just a different brand of scenic.

Polo Towers is situated steps from the Strip, and rooms are comparatively inexpensive.

The Signature at MGM Grand

Set behind MGM Grand just off the Strip, many rooms at The Signature offer a balcony.

The base "Deluxe Suites" don't have one, but the "Deluxe Balcony Suite" and "One Bedroom Balcony Suites" do.

Although technically located off the Strip, The Signature at MGM Grand is connected to MGM Grand via an enclosed walkway.

LINQ

An honorable mention, LINQ has a handful of "Poolside Cabana" Rooms with a sliding door that opens to a private poolside cabana.

Amounting to a personal patio, each cabana comes equipped with seating, an outdoor TV, and even access to pool food & drink service.

Notably, the outdoor area is accessible year-round, even during winter when the pool is closed.

I've stayed in one, and it's a fun amenity. That said, the room was pretty rough around the edges.

Paris

Paris has absorbed Bally's former Jubilee Tower and transformed it into the Versailles Tower.

The tower's 756 rooms have been renovated, are nice, and are spacious for a standard room.

Several Strip-facing rooms (visible in the rendering below) feature balconies that boast stunning views of the Fountains of Bellagio.

I loved my recent stay in the Versailles Tower (a free upgrade to a $1,000+ per night suite will do that :). They did a great job with it.

Hard Rock - Coming in 2027

The former Mirage is being transformed into Hard Rock, which will open in late 2027.

While details about rooms in their guitar-shaped hotel tower are light, or nonexistent, for that matter, some of them will be equipped with a balcony.

Those views will be *unreal*.

Other Las Vegas Hotels With Balconies

The Platinum Las Vegas

The Platinum is located just off the Strip behind Horseshoe and The Vanderpump Hotel on E. Flamingo Road.

In addition to all rooms offering a balcony, Platinum is also alluring for its proximity to Ellis Island, a small casino next door with low minimums, player-friendly table game rules, and inexpensive food and drink options.

Ellis Island Las Vegas

Speaking of Ellis Island, every suite in Ellis' small hotel offers a walk-out balcony.

While they lack the stunning views of other options on the list, the balconies come equipped with a small table and a few chairs. Not a bad spot to enjoy a cocktail!

OYO Las Vegas

While not luxurious by any stretch of the imagination, OYO represents the cheapest option for reserving a hotel in Vegas with a balcony.

All rooms in OYO's smaller "Bay View Tower" have a balcony. While you can't book a room with a balcony online, I recommend requesting that tower when checking in.

I think it's important to point out that I recently stayed at OYO, and it's a disaster.

Tahiti Village Las Vegas

Located south of the Strip, Tahiti Village is appealing in part due to the resort's pool complex, which has a lazy river.

While Tahiti's "Moorea Suites" do not have a walk-out balcony, their "Bora Bora" and "Royal Tahitian" Suites do.

While you certainly have options, I love Cosmopolitan rooms for the breathtaking Strip views.
