Paris Las Vegas, Casino and hotel on Las Vegas Strip, US
Paris Las Vegas is a casino and hotel on the Strip in Nevada with several buildings that replicate French architecture and a gaming area the size of half a football field. A replica of the Eiffel Tower rises above the property and serves as an observation deck for guests who want to overlook the boulevard.
The resort opened on September 1, 1999, following a construction period of roughly two years on the former grounds of a smaller motel. The owner later expanded the property by purchasing neighboring plots and buildings to reach its current size.
The property draws its name from the French capital and applies this theme throughout every zone, from dining to entertainment. Visitors encounter replicas of famous Parisian monuments and stroll beneath a painted sky ceiling that mimics a sunset over France.
The property sits centrally on the Strip and can be reached on foot from neighboring resorts. A theater hosts evening performances, while restaurants and shops stay open continuously, allowing visitors to plan their time flexibly.
Two major power failures interrupted operations, one caused by accidentally drilling into cables during work and another by rodents in the electrical system. Both incidents required emergency crews to evacuate guests from elevators.
