High floor?

Luck. I’ve been in a room that was the last or next to last floor before the penthouses and such. High 60’s I think? I think I was in a terrace 1 bedroom. Faced the mountains away from the strip.

 

Make friends with a check in staff member. I have a card from a young lady who was very helpful to me, I email her a day or two ahead if time and she works really hard to get me what I like. I just make sure to find her once a trip and show my appreciation.

 

I agree. Probably timing has a lot to do with it. Last trip we were on 65, I think; at check-in she specifically asked if we preferred high or low. Our main request was the Boulevard Tower and we were just happy to get that. We were checking in around 4pm the Tuesday after Labor Day, so I’m guessing it was a slowish week. I was staying on a comp, but I’m not a big player at Cosmo by any means (don’t even have a host).

 

I always seem to get a high floor at Cosmo. Don’t think you will notice much of a difference between 56 and 60 view wise, at least I don’t. In fact I’m wondering if the fountain view will be enhanced on a lower floor.

 

Being really high up I seem to recall the lights from the Rio being really bright and red. But that’s hardly a reason to complain.

 

If your room (especially balcony rooms) faces the fountain then IMO you don't want a really high floor. The view of the fountains isn't as good looking directly down on it.

 

And the higher you get, the harder it is to make out what music is playing. Someone needs to tap into the Bellagio feed so you can hear the music on your TV at Cosmo!
