"Don Ahern, the owner of construction-rental company Ahern Rentals, purchased Lucky Dragon, the foreclosed hotel and casino on Sahara Avenue near Las Vegas Boulevard, for $36 million in April 2019. After spending about $10 million to renovate the resort, he opened Ahern Hotel & Convention Center, mainly to take advantage of meetings and conventions with no gaming. And while the hotel still plans a grand opening this summer, now it’s focusing on providing meals for pickup in a neighborhood with few remaining takeout options." - Susan Stapleton

We spent one night here on the first leg of a road trip. Our room was clean and spacious, with plenty of amenities for us to use. The staff were very nice and had us in our room right away. The only minor drawback was the free breakfast that was included in our booking was super limited, only three options and no drinks included (literally only water). The food and service was good though so just a heads up.

The place was great for a non casino hotel. The rooms were clean, staff were helpful. They offered a free comedy show and breakfast. Comics were mediocre but the breakfast was good. It was in an interesting location. Right next door to the world’s largest gift shop. The prices were reasonable especially considering it was a Friday night. Then again it’s not one of the big name hotels as far as Vegas goes. Still no complaints other than no coffee maker in the room and the bed was really firm.

I really enjoyed staying here. The hotel is very well maintained and even though they were remodeling the second floor skybridge while we were staying, the crew working on it was very professional and kind and it didn't disrupt our stay at all. There is a parking garage which is free and easy to get to. The room was tidy and modern with a huge mini fridge. Pool is open late which is nice, they have a bar in the lobby and nice restaurants connected to the hotel. I loved how quiet and modest this place is in a city of noise and chaos. The ladies at the front desk were all pretty kind and helpful. Free breakfast at the nice restaurant was included. The only thing I didn't care for was the red tint to the windows looking out at the city, but oh well I love this place. There is also a deposit due at check in like most hotels in the area, ours was $300 for 3 nights. Such a great place to stay and not even expensive!

I have been to the show room twice now to see two different shows. It was like going back in time to the golden era of Vegas when the showrooms had tables to go with your seat. :-) There was an MC and different comedians. You can be served by a waitress for drinks and FOOD! Wow. I really enjoyed both shows and after the show there is a bar where you can sing karaoke or just watch for more entertainment. Thank you

Amazing and friendly hotel. One of a few in Vegas without casinos and no smoking inside and the beds are super comfortable and the owner if you have a chance to meet him, Mr Ahern is really nice and wants it to be a comfy place for all. Beds and rooms are comfy and great and food and service is awesome. I was there for a conference

Loved getting to stay here, the staff was very nice and helpful. As a couple that travels a lot and look younger than they are, we have noticed that we often times get treated not as well as the older guests. But this was not the case here, we received exceptional service and got offered free late checkout which was a lovely little surprise. Thank you to the staff members here.

Stayed here for 2 nights Oct 2024. 9.4 rating at expedia made me try this hotel. Definitely worth the $150 I paid for 2 nights. Huge room, very clean, free breakfast, |5-10mins walk to monorail(Sahara), no resort fees. Value for money. Unfortunately couldn’t give 5 stars cause housekeeping did not refresh my room. Hopefully it’s an isolated case.

Overall a great stay. The room was super spacious, the location was good for me (easy enough walk during the day to the arts district and Fremont street - I’m active, otherwise maybe it would’ve been good to Uber)||Anyway, only complaint was the alarm clock in the room went off at 1am, which I didn’t set. I couldn’t figure out how to turn it off (before anyone says anything, I know how to work alarm clocks and my husband still uses one) so I ended up having to unplug it. Everything else was great.||Bonus points for no resort fees!

I have nothing but high praise for this classy, hidden gem, conveniently located just one block west of Las Vegas Blvd and Sahara Avenue. Everything about it is first rate. The entertainment offerings in the intimate A Stars Comedy showroom can't be beat - the restaurants are top notch and the rooms are inviting and large. The owners have said they want guests to feel like family and every member of the staff is friendly and accommodating and they make you feel like you are at a home away from home. Plus there is NO resort fees and FREE parking, which is now a rarity in Las Vegas. I highly recommend this great little hotel for both locals and visitors alike.

**July 2024: Saturday Night Stay** My friend and I were looking for an affordable, but comfortable place to stay. I found Ahern on one of those 3rd party booking sites and the favorable reviews sold me. Pros -Free Parking - which is almost nonexistent in Vegas now in days -The room is VERY spacious -Shower was firm and the water hot -Beds were comfortable -Checkin area was smooth and they have fruit infused water -The price is VERY reasonable. I think I spent $121 a night (2 double beds) in September. Cons -Not a deal breaker, but the check in area is in a completely different area from the hotel rooms and parking structure. Sort of inconvenient. Summary If I'm looking for a quick get away, staying at Ahern is a no brainer especially if you have a car. I like that it's away from the strip so it's quieter, but also close enough so you can do all the fun Vegas stuff!

Watch out! This place will charge your card $100 for??? Good luck ever seeing your $100. It's been 2 weeks and the management insists it was credited to my account. IT HAS NOT BEEN CREDITED TO MY ACCOUNT. The place is seedy..looks like it's about to go out of business,probably for ripping off their guests.

I first stayed at the Ahern Hotel a few years ago for EDC because it offered a cheap rate, no-smoking in and out of their property, free parking, and clean and quiet rooms that were close to an EDC shuttle stop. While not very close to much of the "happening spots" on the Strip, it was within reach via car/ride share if needed be. During that first time stay, I didn't have any issues with my stay and actually enjoyed my stay this first time around. Speed forward to this recent Thursday night - I stayed overnight in Vegas with my coworker for a trip to Zion. Most hotels in the area were booked up due to conferences. The Ahern was one of the cheaper hotels in the area, and my room offered complimentary breakfast in the room rate. I thought, great... things are looking good! Well yes, these were good things, but we wound up getting a room with questionable cleanliness. The pillows in our rooms were extremely filthy (they were not changed), as they had long strands of hair in them. They were propped up (as hotels do), and I inspected them, there were all the hairs! The bedsheets looked clean from what I could visually see, but I'm not really sure if they did clean those either if the pillows weren't cleaned, why would the bed sheets be also? I get that in Vegas housekeeping staff have to clean a lot of rooms, and they don't get paid well. And it shows, with the questionable cleanliness of the rooms here. I was hoping for a more positive experience this time around, as I had a few years back. But given the cleanliness issues here, I probably won't be back sadly.

Had no idea where to have a wedding reception in Las Vegas, but my wedding planner suggested here because we could have the entire Piano Bar for as little as 30 people. Honestly she made most of the arrangements with my just selecting the food. The had 3 appetizer menus, and I selected two, splitting down the middle. The grooms side preferred mexican, and my side loves italian. Both were excellent and had plenty of variety. Open bar helped. I walked in without breaking a sweat, and out when it was over. Service was great, and price very reasonable in my opinion.

Pros: Free breakfast, free parking, no resort fee, huge rooms, quiet location slightly off the Strip, super comfy bed, and friendly employees Cons: It'd be nice if their parking provides an EV charger Even though their price might look more expensive than other hotels initially, they don't charge resort fees, making the total cheaper. I'm not kidding about their mattress. It's so comfortable that I asked the front desk to give me the brand lol (it's The Original Mattress Factory). Free parking is a big plus. The building next door has a good selection of restaurants, bars, etc although they seem empty.

This is a review of the King of Diamonds show. My Aunt is a huge fan of Neil Diamond. I took her and my mother. My Mother and I enjoyed the show a great deal. My aunt LOVED it. She went and saw Neil in the 80s and said this reminded her of that and she was impressed. The band is great! The parking is convenient and it is a venue that everyone has a good seat. It was a more reasonable priced ticket and a 75 minute show. It made for a fun night. If you like Sweet Caroline you need to catch this show.

Everything went well, the room was spotless, service was immaculate. However, one thing I didn't like was how the stairs that were at the convention center was blocked off my entire stay. I had planned on taking photos there, that really pissed me off.

This hotel is a secret so don't tell anyone how great it is! The staff is amazing, they have a nice pool and they are dog friendly. It's really great to hang out here on the rooms are super reasonable especially during the summer. it's not that far from the strip and very quiet and mellow. Such a deal!

Really enjoyed our stay at the Ahern! We were right across from the Festival Grounds and a 4 minute or $7 Uber ride from the Strip. The hotel staff were very friendly. The pool was not open for Cinco de Mayo weekend, so hopefully it is open now. There is a $50 fee to check-in early and we received complimentary champagne vouchers from the bar, daily. The restaurant associated with the hotel was Delicious! The room (king bed) was spacious and included a mini fridge. The bathroom is large with a large walk-in shower. Loved the location of this hotel and reasonable price.

First, as I was driving through the parking lot, I noticed it was very clean, maintained, and well lit. The lighting was perfect. I also love that they do not charge for parking. We watched Ryan Ahern (Pianist) in the showroom. The server walking around taking drink orders was very nice and kind. She was sweet. Drink prices were reasonable. Ryan Ahern was amazing, and I'm happy that I was seated in perfect view of the piano. My eyes and ears were fascinated and in awe of such great talent. I will definitely return to try the different restaurants and the wine bar. Also, they have comedy shows and karaoke. Stop by and check out the nightly entertainment. Special treat to meet Carolyn Ahern. She was very sweet too.

Yelp
Our stay at the Ahern left a lot to be desired. There is nothing luxury about this "luxury" boutique hotel. The rooms were dirty, staff was not helpful, the "bar" is a makeshift breakfast counter that wasn't even open all day. You probably can find a nicer pool at your neighborhood apartment complex. No room service, no amenities. For less money you can stay at the nicest hotels on the strip. Will not be returning. We called it the Ahole the entire trip. The pink tint on the windows made our heads hurt.

This review is only for the downstairs bar/event area. We came here for the St. Patrick's Day party. The event area is clean and spacious. Drink prices were reasonable. We had a really great time! One disclaimer: I think those pineapple people frequent here lol.

I missed the Lucky Dragon during its brief run in Vegas but I sorta got a chance to check it out with a recent stay at the Ahern, its new form as of a couple years ago. The property is split into two different buildings next to each other, one is devoted entirely to the hotel, the other (the former casino) is now a little convention center and has a couple restaurants. The rooms are really not bad at all. Basic but solid midscale, they seem to have a mini-fridge standard. According to the in-room fire map there are eight rooms on each floor with conjoining doors at the far end of each hall away from the elevators (I believe rooms 01-08 on each floor), I got stuck with one of these probably due to a Hotels.com discount, but it seemed more solid (and weirdly taller) than usual and I got zero noise problems or smoking coming through. Could be luck of the draw but most rooms on each floor don't have them if you want to make a request. Also comes with a free breakfast available at one of the restaurants in the convention building, from 7 to 9. I didn't do this as I just stayed one night and didn't want to go across the street and sit down that early, but it appeared to be either a Dennys plate or a big Belgian waffle for free. Tip is of course expected and I would guess coffee is the usual 6 to 8 bucks now everywhere on the Strip, but that's still cheaper than anything short of Mickey Ds around here (and that one nearby is a mega hobo fest). For nearby shopping of course there is a Walgreens right across the Strip (with inflated prices), but here's a tip, go in the other direction (toward the freeway) to find a somewhat hidden 7-Eleven that is a little smaller than usual but has normal prices. Word is Lucky Dragon failed because it pursued some weird marketing strategy where it exclusively courted Southern California Asians and had no interest in anyone else, instead it should have done what Ahern seems to be doing and marketed itself as a quieter room and surroundings a little off the busy part of the Strip (but still a quick walk to the monorail or Deuces bus or a short rideshare) with a nicer / more relaxed overall environment at a better value than the big casinos offer. 'Cause that's what it is, at least if these prices hold.

This review is for the downstairs event area/bar where we attended the Tyrus Live Said Comedy Tour. We are pretty impressed with the Ahern overall and have been to the Adern Live showroom in the past. The facility is roomy and nice, staff are probably some of the most helpful, fun and friendly in Las Vegas, and parking is free. The have a nice area with a display of cars in front of the hotel, and food and drinks reasonably priced. We happenes to run into Mike Leonetti (musician and previously the owner of My Mother's House in Summerlin) who we chatted with about his dinner show now in Joel's Chophouse on Saturdays and Sundays 630-830pm, so naturally we have made reservations to attend in next month in July.

We stayed one night at the Ahern on a recent long weekend in Vegas. Billed as a "luxury boutique hotel", this spot replaced the former Lucky Dragon Hotel and Casino, an "Asian-themed" hotel and casino that was only open for a few years before it went out of business. The Ahern has done some remodeling, but still has many of the og Lucky Dragon touches and color scheme. Our room was comfortable enough, with a large King bed and updated (and super clean) bathroom. The entire hotel is wrapped in a pink film, though, so it felt like we were in some weird sci-fi movie when we looked outside. Not that there was much to see, as our room looked out onto some very dilapidated apartments. The staff we encountered were very friendly, but (other than the aforementioned cleanliness) that's about all the niceties I can share about the Ahern. The hotel bills itself as near the Strip - and since none of their onsite restaurants were open past 9pm (odd for Vegas!) we ended up walking to the nearby Sahara Hotel for some late night eats. In between the Ahern and the Sahara (about a 2 block walk) we saw a lot of criminal-looking activity and drug use on the sidewalk. It did NOT feel safe - in fact, we ended up walking in the middle of Sahara Ave (a major street!) to get back to the hotel, as there was some VERY shady stuff going on that we would have needed to walk directly through if we'd used the sidewalk. Speaking of safety, there was no "room key required" to board the elevator, which made our room feel as if anyone off the street could have come up and knocked on our door. If you're not planning to leave the hotel after dark, or eat after going to a show, the Ahern is perfectly acceptable. Personally, I wouldn't stay here again due to the shady neighborhood - the price was about the same as staying at a mid-level Strip hotel, anyway.

Bedbug warning ..: I got bitten three times my first night sleeping at the Ahern hotel in Las Vegas. My toilet also was not flushing from when I checked in. Housekeeping should've caught this while cleaning the toilet. Since I arrived late, I had to go until the next morning without a flushing toilet. Yuck! I had to move rooms, which was a major inconvenience because I had a lot of clothes and accessories unpacked in the room. The reason I'm giving a poor review is that the Management was unapologetic and did not offer me any compensation for the hassle and poor experience. I had to wait on Hold about half an hour to talk to Management who ended up not offering me anything or even saying that they were sorry. Then I had to wait for someone to help me move my belongings to another room. The next day I approached another supervisor and same response. Looks like they do not value their guests. The reason I gave them two stars is because aside from the Management, the staff was friendly, and the pizza restaurant was very delicious .

SERVICE & TRANSITIONS -- ok. A flashy entrance decorated with neon sports cars; the segue for a deflated & strangely boring lobby design. A stark juxtaposition, making the public spaces & flow feel like an after thought. Unlike the captivating high-priced engines, hospitality itself wasn't memorable. 1pm late checkout was wonderful though. MVP employees: N/A ROOM (King Suite) -- https://youtu.be/c_ugVtegDe0 A resplendent pink -panache- vibe, illuminated by grand floor-to-ceiling windows. Their pink "haze" was awkward at first, but it's essential at night & creates crazy fun visuals. Suites are large, outfitted with substantial closet space & well-curated stock. Such functional & comfortable design details made for splendid ergonomics, whether sofa lounging or creating content in the dedicated workspace. Cleaning standards were good sans the vacuuming. BED -- ok. Linens were a mixed bag of "meh" & "oohlala" textures. Outer layers in this setup were uncomfortable but the bedsheets were magic: clean, breathable, & incredibly soft. The skimpy pillows were a disappointment, especially when trying to share the space. Sleep quality was good enough in the end. BATH -- great. High cleaning standards & remarkable staging of cute toiletries ( con cuidado if you're allergic to almonds ). Functionally it's a win thanks to the generous dimensions & impressive vanity. Stylistically it's hampered by all the empty white space. The shower experience was refreshing, both literally & figuratively in that sense: a brooding (red) enclave walk-in design. Complemented by equally intense water pressure & fluffy absorbent towels A fun break from the status quo zero-entry showers around here. TV/ENT./ACTIVITIES -- bad In-room entertainment was weird & dysfunctional for an anti-casino hotel. 2x 50" mounted TVs, with remotes that simply didn't work; not with the set top box nor with the television. Changing channels requires manually pressing the cable box buttons. Even then the cable was spotty & occasionally lost service. To add insult to injury, there's a fine for connecting streaming/auxiliary devices. Pool area is surprisingly small (Skyline casino size). It's a decent place to tan if you manage to secure a chair. A steady roster of entertainers are regularly booked, along with show vouchers being offered. The talents aren't the biggest names but it's something to do. WI-FI & CELL RECEPTION -- bad Intolerable for work/real time use during peak hours + dead zones in the unit. I could barely complete a speed test; QoS & entire installation needs another revisit. --Performance-- Video streaming - average Online gaming - average Video chatting - average --Nerd Stats-- 8-27 Mbps download 9-15 Mbps upload 0% packet loss 23-104 ms latency 4-87 ms jitter FOOD & DRINK -- bad Yikes! Whomever I spoke to at the Chop Shop: this is not the craft for you... poorly trained and rude. A "lost my appetite" kind of vibe that devalues the heavy premium price of their steaks. Restaurant experiences are not at all integrated into the stay, making them inconvenient & underutilized. in-room: microwave (mini) mini-fridge (small) coffee tea wet-bar mini-bar NOISE -- good. Acoustics hold up well even for rooms facing the street. Even ambulances blaring throughout the night were tolerable. LOCATION -- Up north a few miles from the strip & explicitly not a casino hotel. The rideshare/maps experience is very confusing for app workers, so prepare to navigate them. Security presence was strong & I felt safe here. Convenient free garage parking options near by. RECOMMENDATION & RATING Architecturally a great property (formerly Lucky Dragon)... and that's about it. No personality of its own nor did it feel optimized for the non-casino demographic. It has immense potential & prices are super competitive. This location deserves a better rating, but doesn't appear to be quite there yet. I want to return & try more rooms but don't see that happening. Lukewarm rec. 3.5/5 @mrstaycation

Who knew this gem even existed? Not me but damn, I'm glad I found it! Happened to be there for an election results watch party for Jeff Gunter, unfortunately the results weren't what we hoped for. The wine bar where the party was held was adorable, the staff... absolutely amazing. Rachel, the bar manager went out of her way to make us feel welcome. She even went above and beyond to make me an amazing Sangria when I mentioned it was my favorite We later wandered over and were invited in to see the Neil Diamond show, which was pretty great. The best part was the cast of characters we met. Everyone was so friendly and gracious! I heard rave reviews about Joel's chop house and got to speak to Joel who is creative, kind and truly passionate about his food. If you haven't checked out this hidden gem, add it to your list of things to do in Vegas!

This place was amazing! There is a restaurant downstairs and a bar upstairs. We had breakfast downstairs every morning. We tried out the bar one night too. They have happy hour from 2-7pm. The deals looked good but we were out and about so didn't get to try it out. This hotel is definitely a hidden gem. It is one block from the bus station so it was well located. So glad I found this place. Will definitely be back.

non-smoking, very clean, non-gaming, upscale property with free parking and no resort fees. This is a hidden gem is super close to the heart of the strip without being too close. It's a Neighbor to the Strat. I wasn't dodging the stench of pot smoke or boobies which was a nice perk. The staff is fantastic. We went to the Ottimo restaurant inside the hotel. And may I just say, The chefs are world class. It was a pleasure to be their guest. Chef Bruno cooks to perfection. Wow! Most Everything about this hotel and their staff was 5 star. The only downside about the hotel is everytime you look out the window you see a pink Las Vegas. That's why I give it a 4 star. I don't want to see pink filtered windows. But I'll stay there again in a heartbeat.

Bad experience. All front desks are rude. Restaurant services is worst. Asked for extra pillows and didn't have because of their policy. What policy is this? Vega is filled of hotel. This one does not worth your money nor time.

We loved our time here! The check in staff were super friendly and helpful which started the stay off right. It's toward the end of the strip, so it avoids the crowds, but still within walking distance and near the monorail. I saw another review that complained about the pink windows, which honestly was one of my favorite parts. It made the sunsets stunning, the room glowed at certain hours and the full length windows were reflective on the inside which was fun too. I do agree that the pool is awkwardly placed outside the lobby and pretty small and shallow. I wouldn't choose the Ahern if that's your primary goal, but we didn't care about that. They do have a texting program that sends you deals, which was nice. Sign up before you get there. My one critique is that some staff didn't really seem to know what was going on in the hotel. We were told by one barista to come back at a certain time for a happy hour deal and when we did, the next barista told us that was wrong (but we later confirmed she'd been right). One front desk agent told us there'd be happy hour deals on food and drink in the bar, but the bar tender said food ended before that time. It was confusing, so I'd recommend just having a better system to keep everyone up to date.

Review December 30, 2023 Ahern Luxury Boutique Hotel, Las Vegas is Far from luxurious. First of all, the photo they posted on their website of their room is not the real thing . . . gold fixtures, sofa and all. No, no. Maybe it is the "suite" that was posted but definitely Not the regular room. Also, the hotel is a bit far from the strip although it ends at Las Vegas Blvd. So for a tourist or traveler who Ubers around, it is "out in the boonies". The supposed-luxurious hotel does not provide access to some sort of food. So for the hungry guests late at night, you will starve or employ Doordash which will, by most chances Mis-Deliver your much awaited meal because the hotel shares its address with the Convention Center which is just across. Yes! My meal was not delivered and is lost! The staff at the front desk this morning were not helpful. They offered minimal information, did not make eye contact when talking. But the staff last night...Maya and Ashley were superlatively helpful! Avoid, I repeat, avoid Ahern Luxury Boutique Hotel at all costs. (P.S. The two stars above are for the wonderful Maya and Ashley.)

The best pizza on the planet... the best homemade pasta on the planet... and absolutely the best gelato on the planet homemade too, and the prices were the best. It was such a deal. Connie was the best server too

Dinner at the restaurant on the first floor, Ottimo. The Lobster Alfredo was delicious. We split it and had French onion soup and garlic cheese bread to fill us up. The service and ambiance were exceptional. Tomorrow is dinner at Joels Chophouse. The room is very nice. Add to it the fact that parking is free and there is no resort fee. It's a non-smoking property, which makes it even better. We came for a stay-cation. What a great place to chill.

Go-to breakfast spot! Steak & eggs with Manny serving is my favorite breakfast! Might not be trendy or even popular on social media, but if you enjoy the finer side of things, make it a destination and see what you get for mileage. The Ahern Family story is incredible!!!

At the end of June, I stayed at this hotel, checking in during the evening. Although I had reserved a room on the top floor, it seemed no effort had been made to prepare it. Despite being a non-smoking room, it was filled with the stench of flavored cigarettes. The room number was 930. In an attempt to mask the odor, a strong, overwhelming fragrance had been sprayed throughout. When I asked the female staff member to change rooms, she claimed all the other rooms would be the same. For three days, it felt like my lungs were rotting. I will never stay at this hotel again.

Recently just came back from Vegas and decided to stay here which probably wasn't a good idea. Keep in mind check in time is 3pm, didn't get to the hotel from my flight till 10/11pm, the gentleman who helped me in the front was friendly and helpful but we were told the room wasn't ready because the rooms weren't clean and that it would be five minutes. It took way more than 5 minutes, literally didn't get to be in our room till basically midnight!!!! As multiple others were also having to wait. The rooms were decent but the red windows were very scary and hurting to the eyes. Was offered free breakfast tickets which was only able to be used during the weekdays? Didn't enjoy my stay, was unorganized and not worth the $390 I spent. Although across the way, where they have more stuff, I will say was nice and we were able to go to the bar which was having karaoke night, which was fun. Just overall in general, don't think this place is worth staying.

Really comfortable hotel close to the Vegas convention center. We booked here last minute because our previous hotel in downtown Las Vegas was super run down. This hotel has a small gym on the second floor, parking structure right on the first floor, a pool, and all the standard amenities you would expect in a room. Bed was really comfortable, enough USB outlets and regular outlets by the bed for charging. Bathroom is walk in shower. Overall good bang for your buck. Personally I especially liked it because there is no casino floor so there's no smell of cigarette smoke lingering everywhere. Early check in is $50.

Beautiful hotel! Just checked in last night. Staff is professional and friendly. The room is big and spacious. I LOVE the king-size bed - so comfy!!! Can't wait to see what else they have to offer.

I was at the Ahern for a show for the first time last night. I was impressed in many ways. Ease of parking, initial impression was that it is very classy, decor is unique, hospitality was above average. All in all a very pleasant experience. Be sure to enjoy the classic car display at the entrance.

After a long drive and a crying baby we just wanted to go to our room and relax. They assigned us room 916 but when we tried getting in the key didn't work. Finally gave up and went back to front desk. Somehow they gave me the wrong room number. Room number was 619 so they corrected their mistake. What irked me was them laughing about it. I was in no mood to laugh. Once we got past that we eventually hit the pool. Small pool but nice. Not overcrowded and they had a dj. Kid friendly environment. Bar access via a window. The hotel is clean and quiet. No smell of smoke and easy parking. No crazy resort fees and a great location. Overall we had a good experience and would book them again.

Very beautiful quaint hotel/casino just off the Strip on West Sahara. Parking is free and easy to navigate. Went to a private party in one of the ballrooms on 2nd floor. Outstanding food and lavish setting with a view of Las Vegas. And... it smells glorious! Love to return for more adventures!

This review is for the St. Patrick's Celebration: Came here for their St. Patrick's Day party. Very chill & fun. Of course I had to take a photo at their photo op. Haha Music, games & specials on food. The price was just right for me. Green beer, Mac & cheese balls, Veggie Calzones & Rueben Sandwich. $29 only!! We all had fun! The bartender was very nice. I regret forgetting her name! Will come back again for another event in the future!

It's old the looking inside, but clean. the carpet in the room is worn out and needs to be replaced. It's not to far from the strip . NO COURTESY EARLY CHECK IN! It's $50 plus if you arrive one hour early! And check out is at 11 am SHARP!

Check-in was super fast, but not overly friendly. The room was clean and very comfortable. The only thing they can be a little disconcerting is the bright pink window covering everywhere you look outside. I know it's their gimmick but it's a little much lol I would definitely stay here again. Although it was quiet when we went on a Monday night, they have a food court type of situation downstairs as well as a bar and a restaurant. Plenty of free parking and the location is not bad although it is a block off the strip.

Years ago this was the former Lucky Dragon casino. In January 2020, the building has been beautifully transformed to a non-smoking boutique hotel. You'll find them near Interstate 15 on Sahara by The Strip, and FREE parking is available. One building is the convention and the second building is the actual hotel. The self parking garage has seven levels. If you park on the second level, it leads directly to the top floor of the convention, and there's a skybridge connecting to the hotel. The hotel room is very clean and cozy. They have a massage chair, although I'm not sure if every room has it. The furnishing is lush and has the essential amenities including TV, desk, and spacious bathroom. Lobby room has a nice bar, intimate lounge, and a grand piano for Live entertainment. I like the accessibility of this hotel and everything is in close proximity, especially walking to the convention. On the second floor is Aroma Barista Bar which is a lovely coffee lounge. Next to that is Ahern LIVE where they do FREE karaoke night and comedy. Vita Bella Wine Bar also recently opened, and the new restaurant Joel's Chophouse is scheduled for a grand opening in August 2023. The convention building is immaculate and the first floor can gather around 1,800 people. They are making renovations to de-dragon the appearance of the space, so that it looks bright and inviting. Since opening the convention in 2021, they've hosted special events for a fashion show and beauty pageant. The Emerald Room is a perfect space for a small wedding ceremony and can accommodate 60 people. There's also a Center Stage Bar for happy hour, and across from that is Ottimo Gourmet Kitchen & Pizzeria which is a fantastic restaurant!

We have never stayed here before but let me say that upon late check-in, we were greeted by such a nice front desk woman on an early Monday morn (2:30am). No valet service yet but easy access to the parking garage right across a pedestrian bridge (enclosed). The rooms are chic. Done in black, grey and reds. Clean. Quiet in the room. Firm, comfy beds. Large shower. Wish there was a better view looking out, but that's ok. There is a great cafe on tbe 2nd floor that serves great, strong coffee! Flakey, buttery croissants. On Monday nights, visit Talia at the Center Stage Bar on the 1st floor. She makes some great cocktails! Especially, a whiskey sour! She does not use a mix like most places do. Strong and tasty! Tomorrow night, we dine at Trattoria, also on the 1st floor. Separate review for that later. We'll be back.

Pros: The Ahern is an excellent choice for a smoke and drama-free stay in Vegas. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and the rooms are comfortable. The bar and restaurant offer fantastic options, and the nightly karaoke and DJs add to the fun atmosphere. It attracts a mature crowd, ensuring a drama-free experience. Cons: There's no on-site casino, but the Strat is just a 7-minute walk away. However, it's advisable to stick to main streets and avoid walking alone, as it's not in the safest part of town. During our stay, the pool was under construction, and there's no jacuzzi so I cannot comment on those amenities.

This place is fantastic! Has everything you need to an excellent and comfortable stay. Loved the showers in the room. You get a proper complimentary breakfast served to you in a restaurant - I got healthy and delicious avocado toast. And a glass of champagne is also included in your stay. No resort or parking fees. The pink windows are interesting but whatever. The value can't be beat and the every single staff person was so pleasant and helpful. Will stay here from now on!

Incredible rooms, hospitality, exciting entertainment and food... Hard to top this, but they will... The hotel and convention center are under construction and the Grand Opening is not scheduled until Aug. 31st, however they work around the the hotel patrons and you will hardly notice the activity. You are greeted by an amazing staff at the front desk, get access to large rooms with extremely comfortable beds (a must for me) and then can walk across the sky bridge for an amazing gourmet meal with award winning chefs. The hotel is located across from Circus Circus, has a great parking structure, 24 hour security and amazing rooms for conferences, business meetings etc. I highly recommend this for your next business outing!

I WISH I WOULD HAVE BOOKED HERE SOONER!! Due to situations beyond my control I had to book a last minute room but oh man do they roll out the red carpet to ensure you are home away from home!! So many extras and just 5-star service, excellently clean rooms, this place deserves a 10plus!! Please keep up the good work!! Special shout out to Preston at the bar, their security team (apologies, I couldn't remember you all but the 3 men are all so nice that were on duty Friday, Jan 5. At 8pmish / 10pmish. There was a beautiful woman to check me in at 7ish pm and did so much and beyond to make me feel welcomed, sorry it was late and I missed most names but you guys made lasting impressions, thank you!

Great hotel! Stayed here 2 nights and all I can say is Wow! At first getting to the property we were a bit skeptical about location, but don't let that fool you the property is beautiful and clean. Rooms are very clean as well as everything in the location, love how this is a non smoking hotel. Let me talk about customer service, which I haven't experienced in a while. The customer service is a 10/10 everyone is very friendly and extremely welcoming. Hotel does have a coffee shop and restaurant, we had breakfast at the restaurant and the food was amazing as well as the service. If you want to get away from the strip and don't mind the distance this is your go to hotel. Will definitely be back!!!!

My review is for dinner and the NYE party we attended at the Ahern. The NYE package we purchased included a 3-course dinner at their onsite restaurant Ottimo, and then entertainment throughout the evening including DJ's, piano performance by Ryan Ahern (part-owner of the hotel), a magic show and more. The main reason this place didn't score 5 stars was due to the quality of my dinner. I also want to make it crystal clear that if could break out points to score food and our server, then our server, CONNOR, would receive 10 stars if possible. He is a GEM and made a less than stellar dinner MUCH more palatable! The options for dinner were as follows: First Course (choose one) Fried Pork Belly Caesar Salad or French Onion Soup Main Course (choose one) Smashed Burger Chicken Parmesan with Rigatoni pasta or Herb Encrusted Pork Chops (NOT) Final course was dessert: Gelato (multiple flavors to choose from). So, my husband chose the Caesar Salad and the Chicken Parm. I chose the Onion Soup and the Pork Chops. The "cook" on everything was on point. My husband's chicken parm was tender and moist. It was not over-breaded and had a great ratio of sauce to cheese. The rigatoni I felt was an odd choice to accompany chicken Parmesan and could have used a bit more sauce. Next, we come to my choice. The French Onion soup, which usually can be a bit salty, was perfect. A fair amount of onions and yummy, tangy broth. The soup was covered in a nice layer of cheese, but oddly the bread that should have been in the soup was on the side of bowl? Perhaps for people cutting back on carbs, but really? On NYE? WHO CARES??? I just put the bread in my soup and waited a couple of minutes for the bread to absorb the broth. Overall, very delicious. Now, we come to the pork chops...OMG...WHY, WHY, WHY did the chef think ROLLING and caking a pound of salt on two AMAZING pork chops would be the same as herb encrusted chops? The pork chops themselves (there were 2) where thick and juicy. They were not under cooked. They were downright succulent AND completely ruined by the salt that was so much that it literally BURNED my mouth from the severe saltiness. Drinking saltwater could NOT have been a worse experience. Connor was so sweet! He took the horrid chops back to the kitchen and had them re-done. Sadly, this time there was about 1/2 as much salt, but now the chops were underdone and I had no desire to include a ride in an ambulance to a hospital. I was able to basically eat one chop, since there were two on the plate. Each was cooked on one half of each chop (also rather odd that half a chop is cooked and half is inedible). Since the entire dinner was pre-paid, not too much Connor could offer to make things right. However, he did comp us our drinks to make up for my dreadful pork chops. I realize that NYE (or any holiday for that matter) puts more demands on a kitchen, but don't they know this BEFORE the holiday. Maybe practice a bit more and honestly, maybe watch "Hell's Kitchen" to learn the difference between salt encrusted and herb encrusted. As for the NYE festivities, they were GREAT! The magic show was a little old school, but fun to watch and honestly I think the performers had more life in them than Penn & Teller (who cost a lot more to see). Ryan Ahern, the evening's headliner is WONDERFUL!! His playing style very much reminds me of Liberace. He is very talented and showy in his style of piano playing. He's not sleepy, stuffy, or pretentious. I happen to love piano and he made the piano "fun" for our evening. Thanks to the location of the hotel, we were able to go up on the roof and had a PERFECT view of the fireworks from the Strat. We could see the other hotels, too, on the strip, but in my opinion, The Strat put on the BEST firework spectacle. If the Ahern does a NYE party again, next year, I would definitely consider it. My only suggestion is they should either do a package that includes a stay at the hotel (for a discounted rate) or sell rooms at a discount if you are a guest at the NYE party. I tried to book a regular room for the night (nothing fancy) and they wanted nearly $600.00...I'm sorry, if I am going to pay that much, then I'll pay a little more and stay somewhere like the Wynn or Bellagio. I think this hotel and their restaurants have a lot of potential, but there is room for some tweaking "here and there" to make this a really sought after destination. I definitely over all had a great evening and I will definitely try them again in the future.

The best customer service, the best steak house I ever tasted and the chef actually meet us and introduced himself, I love the whole time we were there I felt so secured. Will go back and stay there again. I will recommend this Aher Hotel
