Aria Resort & Casino opened in 2009 as the centerpiece of City Center, a $11 billion mixed-use complex. The resort brought modern sophistication and cutting-edge technology to Las Vegas.
Aria features 4,004 rooms and suites with floor-to-ceiling windows offering Strip or mountain views. Technology integration includes automated room controls, electronic curtains, and control panels managing lights, temperature, and entertainment from bed.
The resort pioneered LEED Gold certification for its sustainability efforts. Energy-efficient design, natural light maximization, and recycling programs make Aria one of Vegas' greenest resorts.
The 150,000-square-foot casino features 2,000 slot machines, 145 table games, and a luxurious high-limit area. The sportsbook by CG Technology offers comfortable seating and massive screens.
Dining at Aria includes multiple award-winning restaurants. Carbone serves Italian-American classics in retro style. Catch offers seafood in a scene-focused atmosphere. Jean Georges Steakhouse by Jean-Georges Vongerichten provides upscale cuts. The buffet, while pricey at $50-65, offers quality selections.
Aria's pool complex features three pools, a whirlpool, and 12 cabanas. The adult pool area maintains a quieter atmosphere than party-focused competitors. Liquid Pool Lounge hosts daytime events during summer.
The Spa at Aria offers 62 treatment rooms including couples suites and outdoor balconies. The fitness center features state-of-the-art equipment and sweeping Strip views.
Entertainment options have included Cirque du Soleil's Zarkana (now closed) and various limited-run productions. The resort regularly hosts major concerts and events in its theater venue.
Aria is centrally located on the Strip with direct connection to Crystals shopping center, Cosmopolitan, and Bellagio via climate-controlled walkways. This makes it ideal for those wanting to explore multiple properties.
Room rates typically range $150-350 weekdays, $300-600 weekends. The resort attracts business travelers during conventions and luxury leisure travelers year-round.
