• Marc August 17, 2010 1 Comment on Cosmopolitan Will NOT Have A Poker Room I just saw on twitter that the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas will NOT have a poker room. I’m very surprised by this, so I wanted to pass the info on.

Cosmopolitan does not have a Poker Room. Check the list on the left to see which resorts have one. The room had more power outlets than any hotel room I’ve been in so far. I took the opportunity to try out The Cosmopolitan’s room service one morning and I was incredibly satisfied. I didn’t really have high expectations for room service, so my meal completely blew me away.

Cosmopolitan is located on the center of the Las Vegas Strip. The resort uses the Identity players card. It is the only casino that offers Identity for its rewards program.

Cosmopolitan was the first players club to integrate purchases made outside the casino floor in its rewards formula. Some other Las Vegas casinos quickly followed.

There are four ways to get a Cosmopolitan Identity card. Players may go to the Identity rewards center at Cosmopolitan. Video poker and slot players can ask an attendant for a card. Table game players may get one printed by the pit boss. The Cosmopolitanlasvegas.com website has a form where players may create an account. All Identity members must be at least 21 years of age with a valid photo ID.

How to Use the Cosmopolitan Identity Card

Identity members that spend money on services like hotel, dining, shopping and services at Cosmopolitan should hand the cashier their card with every purchase. Five Identity Points are earned for every $1 spent.

Slot and video poker players should slide the Identity card into their favorite machine. There is a slot for this above the main screen. Players will know that the card has been accepted when it welcomes them to the machine by name.

Hotel, restaurant, spa and store customers should give the Identity card to the cashier to swipe. Table game players should give the card to the dealer or pit boss. The sportsbook is not owned by Cosmopolitan so there is no need to give the ticket writer a card.

Does The Cosmopolitan Have A Poker Room Open

Slot players receive one Identity Point for every $2.50 wagered. Sterling and Gold players earn double slot points. Platinum players receive triple slot points. Video poker players receive one Identity Point for every $6 wagered. Point multipliers are not awarded on video poker.

Players may convert 100 Identity Points into $1 in free play or resort credit. This makes the slot return 0.4% for slots for Silver players, 0.8% for Sterling and Gold and 1.2% for Platinum. Video poker players receive 0.17%.

Table game players do not receive Identity Points. Comps are still offered. This depends on the bet size, the game’s house edge and the length of action at the tables.

Players that create an Identity account and give action will receive offers. These include free slot play, resort credits and hotel rooms. Sterling and Gold players receive double slot points. Platinum players receive triple points.

How to Redeem Free Slot Play

Every slot and video poker machine has a screen that activates when a player inserts the Identity card. There is an option to redeem points. A player must enter the PIN associated with the Identity card to get to this screen. The player can then determine the number of points that he would like to transfer to the machines. Players may convert 600 Identity Points into $1.

Silver Slot players receive 0.4% in free play or comps. Sterling and Gold players receive 0.8%. Platinum players receive 1.2%. All video poker players earn at a rate of 0.17%. Table game players do not earn Identity Points. Comps are earned based on the level of betting, game played, speed of action and length of time at the table.

Identity Benefits by Tier

Silver players do not receive benefits beyond the standard earn rate and ability to receive mailers. The perks start at the Sterling level. Sterling and higher players receive free self-parking. Gold and higher receive free valet parking.

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is one of the newest and most high end properties on the strip, currently owned by the Blackstone Capital group. The casino was originally slated to be a condominium development, however when the developer ran into financial difficulties the property was scooped up and converted into a full scale casino resort. Guests staying at the hotel will be quick to notice features of the original strategy of the property, since most rooms include both a full kitchen as well as open-air balconies, something pretty rare in Vegas hotels.

When it comes to location it’s pretty hard to beat The Cosmo, situated directly across the street from Planet Hollywood and sandwiched in between The Aria and The Bellagio – dead centre strip. The Cosmopolitan features a slew of luxurious amenities (to be expected with a $3.9 Billion dollar construction price tag) including 2,995 rooms, a 110,000 sq. ft. casino, 300,000 sq. ft. of retail space, 21 restaurants, conference space, a massive gym and a 3,200 theatre. Overall, if you’re looking for upscale accommodations right in the middle of the action, The Cosmo is simply one of the nicest properties currently available in all of Las Vegas.

The Room & Suite Selection

When it comes to guest rooms at the Cosmopolitan, the property offers 17 different type of room category with rates ranging from approximately $250 USD per night to thousands for their high end suites. The Cosmo is considered one of the top properties in Vegas so expect to be shelling out at least $300/night on weekends and probably more if events are going on in town. Below we’ve provided an overview of all the different room categories available at the Cosmo:

City Room – the lowest category of guest room at the Cosmo, the city room has a 460 sq. ft. studio layout and features 2 queen beds for guests. This room category does not include a balcony but it’s quite a nice guest room if you want to stay at the property on the lower end of the pricing scale.

City Studio – a small upgrade from the City Room, the City Studio features 1 King bed and a 630 sq. ft. layout. The main difference with this room category is the addition of an oversized living room that adds to the square footage vs. the city room. It’s also the lowest rate option if you are looking for a room that has one King instead of 2 queens, however this room category also does not have a balcony.

Terrace Studio – the Terrace Studio room features one King size bed and is the lowest rate room that includes a private balcony, which is generally a city or mountain view. The room is a total of 620 sq. ft. and includes a 110 sq. ft. private terrace.

Terrace Studio Fountain View – the exact same as the Terrace Studio, however this room has a direct view of the Bellagio fountains. This upgrade can add an additional $50-$100 a night but is well worth it if it’s in the budget since the Cosmo has some exceptional views of the fountains.

Terrace One Bedroom – the Terrace One Bedroom room includes a separate sleeping area, deep Japanese soaking tub and is 610 sq. ft. with a 110 sq. ft. balcony (city or mountain view).

The Cosmo casino rewards program is called Identity Club and allows players to earn comps for their play on all games offered in the casino.

In total, the casino spans close to 110,000 sq. ft. and is one of the smaller casinos on the strip considering the size of the hotel overall. Some players find the layout a big strange since there are a lot of small pockets of games and most of the pedestrian traffic through the hotel goes directly through the main area of the casino. That being said, game selection is top notch and there are tons of options for players.

Bars – the Cosmopolitan has a total of five bars including the Bond Bar, Chandelier Bar, Clique, The Study and Vesper Bar. All of them are beautiful and have a wide range of eclectic cocktails as well as the regular drinks you’d expect.
