We hate to say it but the Las Vegas Hilton is Crapping Out.

There are several reasons for the Hilton's downfall and namely it involves Trekkies and outdated decor. As one reviewer put it:

My first visit to this hotel was in 1980. Back then this was a special place. Even the pool was one of the best back then. Unfortunately, it's still the same! A lot has changed since then, just not at the Hilton. No major hotel has fallen so far behind over the years in Vegas than this one.

Add in the geeky Star Trek Experience and Star Trek restaurant, this hotel needs a lot of improvement that will appeal to all kinds of people. Having Barry Manilow as a regular performer just isn't going to cut it.

Gaudy Attraction:
Star Trek Experience.

When Staying Here Might Seem Like a Good Idea:
It's connected to the convention center if you're there on business and Hilton Rewards Gold and Diamond members get better treatment.

But Why This Place is a Nightmare:
Aside from Trekkies, the decor is worn-down and out of date. You're also staying a loooong block away from the action on the strip.

Now Showing:
Barry Manilow.

Who You Are Most Likely To See Gambling:
Trekkies and Manilow fans of course.

    Yeah, but it's stumbling distance to the Sahara, which for now still has one of the few rooms of cheap blackjack tables on the strip. Plus the Hilton's coffee shop has free wi-fi, which is not an easy thing to find in Vegas.

    Free WiFi?

    Really? Cool. I have been looking for a place in Vegas with free WiFi. Hilton LV just won a fan.
