| msk's Full Review: Imperial Palace Hotel & Casino |
The IP is another Vegas casino that I have a love/hate relationship with.
They have some fine restaurants. I thoroughly enjoyed the Ming Palace and the seafood restaurant. Their 24 hour cafe is pretty good too.
Their Legends in Concert show is outstanding. One thing I highly recommend is visiting their classic car museum. It's cheap and absolutely fascinating. They have a most impressive collection so bring lots of film and make sure you have plenty of time.
The decor is nice, especially if you love fine asian artifacts and cloisonne.
Other than that, the casino really doesn't have much to offer. It's small, often crowded, and really doesn't offer a good assortment of slots and games.
I only stayed in their hotel once about 10 years back. I didn't take advantage of many of the amenities, but I wasn't impressed. It was winter so I didn't check out their pool and facilities. The room was small and not much better than a Motel 6. That's ok though, it was cheap and I don't spend much time in my room anyway.
They do get big points for their location. They're in the middle of the best of everything. I generally don't go there anymore when I visit Vegas except to see their car museum, it's a must see!
