Best for being in the middle of the action — steps from Bellagio, CityCenter, shopping, clubs, and many on-site restaurants.

Best for a resort feel away from the Strip, with resort-size meeting space, lots of on-site dining, and easy access to Red Rock Canyon.
When The Cosmopolitan wins: Choose The Cosmopolitan if you want to be on the Las Vegas Strip with immediate access to major attractions, an extensive, chef-driven dining lineup, a large casino (110,000 sq ft) and multiple pool experiences plus marquee nightlife.
When Red Rock wins: Pick Red Rock Casino, Resort and Spa if you prefer an upscale, more relaxed resort off the Strip with spacious conference facilities, plentiful on-site restaurants and bars, free parking, and quicker access to outdoor activities such as Red Rock Canyon.
Bottom line: Both are five-star Vegas resorts that combine casino, dining, pool and spa amenities; pick The Cosmopolitan for central Strip energy and nightlife, or Red Rock for a quieter, resort-style stay outside the Strip core.
