Getting to the top of the Stratosphere takes under 30 seconds. The Tower features observations decks, a lounge, a great restaurant and meeting spaces. The Stratosphere Tower stands at 1,149 feet tall, which makes it the tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States, and the tallest building west of the Mississippi River. It also provides the best way to take pictures of the Las Vegas valley. The property features great entertainment, a variety of dining venues, 30 specialty shops-clothing, novelty, mementos, and even fun rides on top of the structure. The Stratosphere Casino is one place, just like the Space Needle in Seattle, that every single Las Vegas visitor must visit at least once. It’s so large that many have used it as a navigational tool. You can see it from anywhere in the city. It’s the huge Space Needle-like structure that pierces the Las Vegas skyline. Located at 2000 South Las Vegas Boulevard for more than two decades, it’s hard to miss the Stratosphere Casino in Las Vegas. Update: Stratosphere Casino Hotel, owner and operator, Golden Entertainment Inc., will reportedly rename the Las Vegas property - The STRAT Hotel, Casino and Skypod, as part of its $140 million upgrade of the iconic resort.
