Hotel rooms with great view of the sphere

Which hotels have rooms with the best view of the sphere?

I would love to stay in a hotel room with a great view of the sphere. If I know of a few hotels with that criteria then I can look at pricing, etc.

If you want a hotel room in Las Vegas that gives you a great view of Sphere — impressive at night with its LED-wrapped exterior — there are a handful of hotels that consistently come out on top. Which is “best” depends a bit on how close you want to be to the Sphere, how much you want to spend, and whether you care about luxury versus convenience. Here are the top hotel choices if Sphere-views are high on your list:

  • — This is probably the #1 pick. The Venetian is directly adjacent to the Sphere, connected by a pedestrian bridge, and many of its suites are marketed as “Sphere View.”

    Rooms high enough up with the right orientation (facing east / toward Sphere) will give you a front-row view of the Sphere’s exterior LEDs. If you want the easiest, closest, low-hassle option to see the Sphere from your room, the Venetian is hard to beat.

  • — Same resort complex as The Venetian but with a slightly quieter, more modern vibe. Palazzo also offers suites with Sphere-view options, and many people report excellent views from higher-floor rooms.
  • (and its sister property ) — A few minutes’ walk from the Sphere. Some rooms — especially high-floor, non-Strip-facing ones — are known to have good Sphere views.

    Because of the positioning and curvature of Wynn/Encore, the view isn’t as guaranteed as Venetian/Palazzo — you’ll want to call ahead and request a “Sphere view” room.

  • (off-Strip/near Flamingo area) — For a more budget-conscious stay (compared to Venetian or Wynn), Platinum sometimes shows up on lists of hotels where you can get a Sphere view.

    This could be a reasonable compromise: easier on price, still (sometimes) good sight-lines, though likely less luxurious or “resort-style.”

  • Hotels a bit farther but sometimes with partial views: , (formerly Bally’s), and select mid-/high-rise hotels on the east-side of the Strip — but these are “you might get lucky” rather than guaranteed.

    Because of angle and nearby buildings, the view may be partial or obstructed; for example, some guests report only seeing a corner or a portion of the Sphere’s exterior from these hotels.

What to do to maximize your chances of a great view:

  • When booking, select “Sphere View” (or “attraction view” / “strip + Sphere” when available) rather than a generic room to avoid getting a “wrong-facing” unit. Some hotels label the correct rooms explicitly.
  • Aim for high-floor rooms (not just top floor — but above floors ~15–20, ideally higher) — height helps get over surrounding buildings and offers a better angle.
  • Request the room by phone or during check-in — some guests report that just politely asking for a Sphere-view room helps, especially at Wynn/Encore.
  • Be aware that “good view” can vary: some rooms give you a full frontal view; others only a partial glimpse. If you care a lot about the visuals (for photos or to appreciate the Sphere’s LED displays), try to get a “full view” designation.

My recommendation: If your top priority is “I want to wake up in the morning or come back late at night and see Sphere from my window,” go for The Venetian or The Palazzo — ideally a high-floor “Sphere View” suite. If you want a mix of luxury & walkability but maybe a bit quieter (or cheaper) than Venetian, Wynn/Encore is a good second choice (just make sure to ask for the right room). If you want to save money but still try for a view, Platinum Hotel & Spa might do the trick — though it’s more of a “hope it works out” than a guarantee.

In short: yes — there are hotels in Vegas with rooms that offer some of the best views of the Sphere. Pick carefully (room type, floor, facing direction), and you could end up with a stay where the Sphere is basically part of your hotel “window-view” entertainment. 👍
