The STRAT Hotel Casino Resort Tower Las Vegas

The Stratosphere has rebranded its name to The Strat Hotel & Casino & Tower which is a hotel and casino located in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. The Strat Hotel & Casino & Tower includes a 1,149 ft (350.2 m) observation tower, that is the tallest in the United States. Also the second-tallest observation tower in the Western Hemisphere, surpassed by the CN Tower in Toronto, Ontario Canada. The tower is topped by a skypod which includes observation decks, a revolving restaurant, and lounges. The top of the Strat tower also has several roller coaster thrill rides. The hotel and casino facilities are situated at the base of the tower, and the resort also includes a shopping mall and a showroom. The Stratosphere is located within city limits on Las Vegas Boulevard, just north of the Las Vegas Strip. The Strat resort is sometimes considered to be a Las Vegas Strip property, although Clark County does not officially recognize it that way, stating that the Strip does not extend into city limits.

The STRAT Hotel Casino Resort Overview

The hotel and casino resort facilities are located at the bottom of the tower. Except for a restaurant at the top of the tower, the resort has numerous other restaurants, Roxy’s Diner, has operated since the resort’s opening. A buffet, and a steakhouse known as McCall’s Heartland Grill.
In late 2023, the Strat is scheduled to open Atomic Range, a four-story 99,000 sq ft (9,200 m2) golf entertainment area. Atomic Range is being built on seven acres located directly north of the resort that were leased out to developer Flite Golf & Entertainment.
The Strat’s location, in regard to the Las Vegas Strip, has been debated. Although the Stratosphere was considered north of the Las Vegas Strip at the time of its 1996 opening, it advertised itself as being on the Strip, with the slogan, “We define the top of the Strip.”

Tower Observation & Deck

The hotel casino resort was literally named after the stratosphere in Earth’s atmosphere, as a reference to the height of the tower. At 1,149 ft (350 m), it is the tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States, and the second-tallest in the Western Hemisphere, surpassed only by the CN Tower in Toronto, Ontario. The resort is the tallest tower west of the Mississippi River, and the tallest structure in Las Vegas.
The stratosphere tower is a popular for tourists, and is a very notable part of the Las Vegas skyline. The top of the tower has two observation decks and a restaurant named “Top of the World”, in addition to lounges, four thrill rides, and a wedding chapel. Top of the World is a revolving restaurant, taking about 80 minutes to complete a full rotation. Top of the World restaurant is located on the 106th floor of the tower, providing overhead views of the Las Vegas Valley. The indoor observation deck is located on the 108th floor, and includes food and beverage outlets, while stairs lead up to an outdoor deck on the 109th floor. Like the restaurant, both decks provide wraparound views of the Las Vegas Valley. The indoor deck was remodeled in July 2019.
The tower elevators, are some of the fastest in the world, traveling at speeds of 1,801 feet per minute. The stratosphere tower has 1,455 steps leading up to the 108th floor, which rises 855 feet. Since 2009, the stratosphere tower has hosted a fundraising event named Scale the Strat, that benefits the American Lung Association. Hundreds of people compete each year in the stair-racing event, in which individual participants race to the top of the tower for the best time, separated from each other by one-minute intervals. Aside from the races, the stairs are otherwise closed to the public.
