The eighth floor pool complex includes a freeform pool with a rock waterfall, a tropical ocean-scene wall, volleyball nets and rental cabanas. A second outdoor pool is reserved for adults, only. Roni Josef International Salon and Spa offers body treatments that include Swedish and Western therapies. An indoor/outdoor fitness center overlooks the activity pool and houses cardiovascular and weight-training machines.

Try your hand at slots and table games in the Stratosphere Casino, or place a bet at the sports book (especially during basketball, football, and racing championship parties). If you don't hit it big, you can still earn your Sin City bragging rights by leaping from the top of your hotel and living to tell the tale: SkyJump, one of 3 onsite thrill rides, is a 108-story controlled freefall offering amazing aerial views of The Strip--if you can keep your eyes open.

Jumping off the tower isn't the only reason to head to the top. The revolving Top of the World restaurant, perched 1,000 feet above The Strip, completes a 360-degree turn every 80 minutes. This casual restaurant specializes in steak, seafood, and decadent desserts. If you just can't get enough seafood, head to the Stratosphere's buffet for all-you-can-eat shrimp and crab leg nights. The after-dinner entertainment comes with a bite too, and a spicy one at that: At Bite Las Vegas, topless vampires perform to hard-rock music. You can also hear DJs spin nightly at lounges like the Air Bar and casino-level C Bar.

When you're ready to take a break, there are dozens of ways to decompress. Work off that buffet dinner any time of the day at the 24-hour fitness center, schedule a massage or manicure at Roni Josef International Spa & Salon, or make the most of the Stratosphere's high real estate--head to the 8th-floor outdoor pool for swimming and sunbathing, or to take in a desert sunset.

Relaxing in your room is easy with 42-inch plasma TVs, pay movies, and wireless Internet access (surcharge). For entertaining groups, get a suite with a separate living room, wet bar, and refrigerator. Most rooms are outfitted with large windows offering stunning views of the Las Vegas Valley and The Strip.

While you might have to ascend several hundred feet to reach your dinner destination, you won't have to leave the Stratosphere to find a variety of dining options. Start your morning off right at the casino-level Starbucks. You can spend a pool day munching on burgers and hot dogs, or get a burrito to go at El Nopal. After dinner, head to the Tower Shops to grab a Krispy Kreme donut or Ben & Jerry's ice cream for dessert to go. And with 24-hour room service, you can always enjoy an entire meal in your room. Among the offerings:
