Review of Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas

I can not give this hotel 5 stars. It was not what...

I can not give this hotel 5 stars. It was not what I expected. I was looking for New York Waldorf Astoria. I was told the remodel will happen in about a year.<br/> Walking into the lobby from outside i was God smacked by a strong odor. My room also had a odd smell which triggered a migraine. I mentioned this problem to the front desk. They responded quickly and checked my room. She explained the smell. The smell was from the kitchen vents being closed due to the winds outside. She also said that was the same problem that they encountered a few days ago. I was advised to move to another room. We were moved to a room on the 17th floor and it was noisy. We were then moved to the 20th floor and it was a winner, but without a view.<br/>This is not a bad looking place, but it doesn't meet (my) expected standards of Waldorf Astoria.<br/>I will give all the staff 5 stars because they meet the (my) expected standards of the Waldorf Astoria. <br/>The Waldorf has always been on my bucket list, I will have to wait for the remodel to fulfill it.
