This Iconic Las Vegas Hotel Just Debuted a $100 Million Upgrade — Including New Balcony Rooms

Travelers longing for a Paris getaway have a quick and easy way to experience a version of the “City of Lights” without leaving the United States. 

Paris Las Vegas, the famed French-inspired casino and hotel, recently unveiled a $100 million upgrade to its Versailles Tower, featuring 756 renovated rooms and extra amenities. Best of all, guests can now book rooms with a Las Vegas strip-view balcony overlooking the famed Bellagio fountains. (Having a balcony attached to a Las Vegas Strip hotel room is rare, with only Paris Las Vegas and MGM Resort’s The Cosmopolitan.)

Travel + Leisure spotted availability for the new balcony rooms, with rates for under $249 a night on the Paris website throughout the fall. The balcony rooms span over 445 square feet and offer a king or double-bed configuration. Amenities in the room include a new 55″ television, sofa, and marble bathrooms with French-inspired art pieces. The most stunning amenity may be the views from the balcony of the Las Vegas Strip, and neighboring fountains.

“The rooms are inspired by an elegant Parisian apartment, and the renovation and redesign have transformed every detail – from the color scheme to the layout and furnishings – into a modern and luxurious space, all while still reflecting the resort’s identity,” Sean McBurney, Caesars Entertainment’s regional president of Las Vegas, told T+L.

The Versailles Tower was originally a part of the Horseshoe Las Vegas, which was previously known as Bally’s. After the brand change, the management invested $100 million into an interior and exterior renovation of the tower and merged it into the Paris Las Vegas. 

The casino and hotel are themed as a French capital, complete with a half-sized replica of the Eiffel Tower, and a two-thirds-sized replica of the Arc de Triomphe. Having originally opened in September 1999, the new investment and upgrades may have guests saying, “C’est tres bien.” The hotel also features one of the most unique outdoor recreation areas in Las Vegas, with a two-acre rooftop pool that sits under the replica of the Eiffel Tower.
