Edit
I'll be heading to NYC soon & staying at the Marcel -will tell you all how that goes after I get back. However, if you're heading this way to Las Vegas, there's an interesting new hotel in town called Rumor.
I know, it's a CHEESY name, as most Vegas places are - but this is a boutique hotel & in this city, they are rare. It's close to all the main hotels on the LV strip for those of you who enjoy that kind of thing!
The decor seems pretty attractive so I think me & the MR. may just book a weekend there sometime!
I've always thought this town was sooooooooooo backwards and not HIP enough - always lacked culture!
That could very well be that I lived in NYC for most of my life & was used to so much diversity. So it's nice when something new & interesting pops up here in LV....however, I wish it would be museums and coffee shops, less nightclubs & hotels. Know what I mean jellybean??

So funny that you talked about this hotel because I was about to book a room with them for Halloween weekend! Not gonna be able to wing it this time but for sure next time I'm in LV, I will be at the Rumor! :) The prices aren't bad either, so chic!

ReplyDeleteI stayed at The Rumor 2 weeks ago. It was good for the price (super cheap when we went) but it's definitely not like the hotels on the strip (I highly recommend The Cosmopolitan but definitely pricier). The Rumor is quite a few blocks from the strip but you can easily take a taxi. The pool was nice to lounge at but they said they would be closing it for the season soon (didn't know Vegas had much for seasons). Overall, for the cost, it's nice to stay at. If you get a king room, be sure to request a bathtub. They have great big bathtubs in the room for a nice soak.
ReplyDeletelooks fabbo - great graphics and visual silliness with the monekeys and all - best le xox
ReplyDeleteHello Jen!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I must say my favourite pictures are those of the bathrooms. I think that this boutique hotel is a bit different than the ones in Europe but then again it has elements of LV, hasn;t it? Anyway maybe someday I will visit. Who Knows.

I do like boutique hotels. This one just looks like a lot of fun. I am loving those bar stools they are beyond cool! Have fun and safe travels. xo
ReplyDeleteOMG I love the design of the whole place but my favorite rooms are the last two.
ReplyDeleteLove the look of this hotel! I will add it to my list for next time I visit LV!
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome! I always prefer a boutique hotel over the typical big chains. They always have great design elements and special touches!

I think visiting Las Vegas would be the kind of thing you want to do to experience something different from places like NYC. I think this hotel is very fun and I love all the colors!
ReplyDeleteWe need more coffee shops and museums here in Vegas! I have been wanting to check this place out but haven't had a chance yet, I def will do now. Speaking of coffee shops have you been to Sambalatte in Summerlin yet? Great coffee shop.
ReplyDeleteThat places looks absolutely divine!! I would looove to stay there! Those purple rooms look so luxurious and cozy!!
ReplyDeleteLet us know how you like Marcel! I stayed there in May. I passed Rumor in Vegas and my fiance and I agreed on this - he would be miserable there. This is definitely a place for a girls trip!
ReplyDeleteSome beautiful photos .. invite dream vacation ...
ReplyDeleteSee you soon!

I'm off to vegas in the summer...can't wait. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've never even heard about this joint! I'll have to check it out next time I'm there. :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks awesome! I totally want to stay here! I have always only stayed at the Mirage with my family. But if I am headed to LV with some girlfriends, this looks like the spot.
ReplyDeleteI live in vegas and my friend just had a party there and rented it out! its freakin beautiful. Every room has a different theme, or look,it's truly unique. But then again, something like the bellagio is so classy and beautiful!! great pictures!!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about cafes and culture! Gotta have em! Boutique places keep life interesting. btw if you are after cafes and restaurants and boutique night-spots, you should try new zealand! my city has more cafes etc per head than NYC... Unexpected huh?
ReplyDeleteLove your blog and style by the way!!!!

I like boutique hotels, and this one looks really nice. I love the bar stools and the monkeys at the elevator! :)
ReplyDeleteI had never heard about this hotel but thanks for the heads up. I love boutique hotels.
ReplyDeleteLooks amazing! I love to stay at the Hotel Des Arts in SF. The rooms have been painted by local artists so they are covered in some amazing murals.
ReplyDeleteI stayed at this hotel last November. It's really reasonably priced for Las Vegas. It's not a family hotel, it's great for girls trips or a couples weekend. My husband and I walked to the strip - it was a hike. I really liked the decor and the tub in our room. What I didn't like, it was valet and when we didn't want to walk, it was a pain. They do not all low outside food or drinks in your room which I found to be a little annoying.
ReplyDeleteAMNDASMITG: yea las vegas gets pretty chilly during winter time, & the pools are way too cold!
ReplyDeleteDEBBIE: it is pretty far from the strip by foot, by car it's very close by... So valet is what they have. I can't believe you can't bring outside food into ur room?? Weird!
ReplyDeleteAMY: ha! I bet anywhere in Europe (pretty much) has more cafes than las vegas!
ReplyDeleteCHRISTY: neat! But I bet the rental for the party was more affordable at this hotel versus bellagio.. But yes, both are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteA dream!
ReplyDeleteAmazing interior designing. World class. Simply beautiful!

Yes! I have been booking suites at Rumor since they opened at least once a month for some of my photo shoots and love it! I always get their Deluxe Suites, since they are more spacious.
ReplyDeleteRumor is more laid back and accessible than most hotels here in Vegas. And they are always having fun events in the courtyard like fashion shows or Yappy Hour where you can bring your dogs!
Oh, I do agree with Amanda though. The Cosmopolitan is definitely nicer! I do shoots there way more than Rumor because of this, depending on which package my clients get.
ReplyDeleteIf you are looking to do a staycation with your guy in Vegas, I would do the Cosmo and get their Studio Suite with Premium view of the Bellagio Fountains and the Eiffel Tower! Maybe go for dinner at Jaleo or Milo's beforehand and dfinitely drinks at the different levels of the Chandelier bar! So fun!
Oh and for a late night snack, go on a mystery hunt for their secret pizza joint! (hint....look for the wall of record covers)
Nope. Haven't been to Rumor!! And how i wished i could stay a night or two on that new boutique hotel. the interior is very beautiful, it looks like a mansion to me.
ReplyDeleteLove love LOVE these shower stalls! They are TOTALLY made for tall people like my husband and I! I DEFINTITELY need to check out this hotel when I am in LV...the decor is amazing!
