Sidewalk Stars New Home

- by The Editor - Leave a Comment

On my last trip to Las Vegas a tourist by the SLS asked me where the stars of celebrities were in the pavement and, i didn’t really have a great answer for her but i remember some in various places on center Strip but no one location. First of all if you are not familiar with what is officially called “The Las Vegas Walk Of Stars” it is similar to the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and, in this case the cement stars in the sidewalk honor Las Vegas entertainment people. The cement stars were removed in several places on the …

The Sahara To Return?

- by The Editor - Leave a Comment

With the recent sale of the SLS Las Vegas rumors started soon after that a name change for the property was on the horizon, maybe even back to its original name the Sahara; This rumor now seems a good possibility especially after the properties players club was renamed from the CODE to Club 52 which is the year the Sahara opened. A rebranding from the SLS name to the former Sahara would be a plus but the new owners still have a lot of work to market a good property in a not great location to locals and visitors.

In recent years with the slow economy many resorts have cut hours for things such as their coffee shops especially during the slow months but closing a buffet completely at a new resort may be more of a sign of them not getting the …

SLS Signs Resident DJ

- by The Editor - Leave a Comment

The new SLS resort on the North end of the Strip made a big deal about its LIFE Nightclub before the properties opening but so far it seems the club isn’t drawing the attention it needs in a crowded Las Vegas night club scene. The properties location away from most of the Strip resorts also doesn’t help the club draw traffic although if they could draw some of the nightclub crowd to come check it out it could find its niche. One way the club is raising its profile is by the recent signing of a resident DJ in this …

SLS Locals Deals

- by The Editor - Leave a Comment

When the new SLS stated that they were going to cater to locals as well as tourists many may have wondered how they were going to do that as locals generally go to their local casino most of the time than fight the tourists and traffic of the Strip; Well one way to market to the locals market is give them specials to draw them to the resort which is what the SLS is doing via its players club called The Code. Locals with the card get $5 drinks property wide from 5 to 8pm Sunday through Thursdays as well …

The SLS Las Vegas on Friday night had its star studded opening party followed by the grand opening of the property ahead of its official opening of Labor Day weekend. The former legendary Sahara has been reborn as the more modern hipper SLS with a very Cosmopolitan like vibe which isn’t really a surprise as since that property opened it has had a effect on the look and style of new properties as well as the advertising for them.
