New Angle Development has approval from Clark County to build Nuance Las Vegas near Allegiant Stadium with plans to break ground in early 2024. The 19-story resort will be on the southwest corner of Polaris and Quail (close to Russell and Interstate 15), helping to anchor an area dubbed the Stadium District, which already includes chain hotels by Marriott and Holiday Inn. When complete, the casino-free hotel will have 340 rooms, a restaurant, spa, ballroom, convention space, rooftop bar and cigar lounge. At least four levels are dedicated to parking.

After a long wait, Station Casinos is finally moving ahead with its Durango project, the first major casino resort in the Southwest Valley. The first phase will wrap up in 2023 with more additions expected the following year. Overall, the property will have two hotel towers with at least 200 rooms and suites with a modern image that tips a hat to the surrounding desert landscape. Durango will also have convention space, a luxurious pool deck and a few high-tech touches (like 40 charging stations for electric cars). The Eat Your Heart Out food hall will include a few local favorties like Freed’s Bakery and Yu-Or-Mi sushi.

The North Strip property known as the Fontainebleu has gone through a few ups and downs over the past 14 years. The unfinished hotel was originally supposed to open in 2008, but those plans were disrupted by the recession. It’s gone through a few ownership and name changes, at one point dubbed The Drew and at another, pegged as a new JW Marriott hotel. However, the resort is once again the Fontainebleu and on pace to open in late 2023 with more than 3,700 rooms and suites and at least 500,000 square feet of meeting and convention space. Until then, it remains the biggest eyesore on the Strip. At 735 feet, it’s the tallest building in Vegas if you don’t count the Strat.

Caesars Entertainment transformed Bally’s into the Horseshoe, an iconic brand that formerly had a presence on Fremont Street in the space now home to Binion’s. The new version has a prominent mid-Strip location and a renewed focus on gambling with a large casino and the envious status of being host to the World Series of Poker. Most of the renovations are cosmetic, giving the property a more contemporary image with gold and leather touches. M.Y. Asia by Chinese-American chef Martin Yan is the first restaurant announced for the new Horseshoe.

The Lexi opened in June, 2023 as the first official cannabis-friendly hotel in Las Vegas, although consumption isn’t allowed until certain laws are approved. The 21-and-over boutique property, formerly known as the Artisan, is just west of the Strip on Sahara Avenue. It was bought by Elevations Hotels & Resorts and renovated for a more contemporary image. Rooms on the fourth floor (along with a planned consumption lounge in the lobby) will allow marijuana use with special high-tech air filtration systems in place. The pool remains tops-optional and the Artisan Lounge (named in honor of the previous hotel) serves a solid lineup of cocktails and food.

The Downtown Arts District finally has its own hotel — a collaboration between Marriott and celebrity chef Todd English. Opened in the first quarter of 2022, the English Hotel is small in stature with less than 80 rooms, but heavy on style with a Roaring ’20s Prohibition theme. English himself will be preparing food in the Pepper Club. Guests can also unwind at a charming tree-lined pool deck and explore the bars, restaurants and art scene of Downtown’s fastest-growing neighborhood.

Virgin Hotels Las Vegas mixes sophistication with imagery inspired by the surrounding Nevada desert. Renovated from the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino just east of the Strip, the property is now under the ownership of Richard Branson and partners.

Much of the layout is the same with about 1,500 hotel rooms in three towers. The casino is operated by Mohegan Sun and the pool deck has been redesigned into a five-acre promenade with a lawn for concerts and other events. Restaurants include an off-Strip version of Nobu, One Steakhouse and the resurrection of Todd English’s Olives. However, the biggest surprise could be the SoCal-inspired Thai food at Night + Market. The in-house 4,000-seat Theater is one of the best concert venues in Vegas.
