Arcade at the Horseshoe Center Strip

We originally had a reservation for a lounge daybed (with a canopy) at the Paris pool on a Tuesday. However, the Sunday before our reservation I received a call from the Paris pool manager explaining that the Paris pool was going to be closed for maintenance but I could make a reservation at the Blu Pool at Horseshoe. While I was sad I was not going to be basking in the sun under the Eiffel Tower, the Blu Pool turned out to be a great pool. Same chill vibe as Paris & not a party scene like other pools in Vegas. The other guests we talked to while at the pool very friendly & nice. The staff was great & very helpful. Our waitress was attentive & overall amazing. I made a reservation for a lounge daybed, which I thought was the same bed that I had reserved for Paris. However, when we arrived at 11:00am the daybed I reserved did not have a canopy & all the canopy beds were already spoken for + all the shaded spots for non-canopy beds were already taken. I also found out the Planet Hollywood pool was also closed & allowing their guests to come to Blu as well. We had a great time at Blu but we were only able to enjoy it for a few hours due to being in the direct sunlight & heat. I wanted to spend all day at the pool so it sucks that I was only able to experience it for a few hours. My suggestion for those who need shade, get there when the pool opens at 9:00am to choose your spot. Once you choose your spot you are able to leave & come back as you please.

ON THE DEEP ENDThe last time I stayed at Bally's, which is now The Horseshoe, was in March 2014. At that time the Blu Pool wasn't open for to the public as I believe due to drainage issues. About 9 years later I stayed at The Horseshow where I stayed for 5 nights in the second of July this year. During my stay I swam at the Blu Pool multiple times including on the day of my check-out when the weather at Vegas was 116 F. Each pool at each hotel has different features. At the Horseshoe the feature of the Blu Pool is the deep end, which is 15 feet deep. The deep end incentivizes you to swim. This isn't a party pool as a lot are in Vegas and because of that this pool isn't very crowded as others. Even though I enjoy the atmosphere of party pools there are times I want to relax when I'm at a pool. One of the most relaxing times when I was at Vegas was swimming at the deep end of this pool. You only get to swim at the deep end of the pool is if there are lifeguards at that area. The one thing I didn't like about the Blu Pool is the lifeguards aren't at that area the first hour and last hour when the pool is open. Even though the Blu Pool is free for the guests, people are on vacation would like if the deep end of the pool is available for the whole time. If you want to unwind I recommend swimming at the deep end of the Blu Pool.

This hotel pool is really nice. Bigger than other hotel pools I've seen. The towel attendant was super nice to us. They also have a free water station.The best part was that there was a shaded area towards the back end of the pool away from the sun. It was great to sit and relax and we didn't have to face the sun and the wind. Plenty of space to sit. The music was really good too. Not a dj, but really good not mainstream music. Will return to relax!

If you're going to Vegas with kids, this pool is perfect for families. This pool has a deep end and a shallow end. They divide the depth by buoys. The shallow end is 3ft-5ft and the edges of the pool are lined with benches. So it's perfect for kids to sit and chill when they're tired of swimming, but still allows them to keep their body submerge in the water. Upon entering we just had to show our hotel key and they asked how many towels we needed. There was a crowd but people were still considerate in trying to distance, but it's a pool so what can you do. There's still a lot of lounge chairs but they ask that you not move the furniture We prepared ourselves by bringing our kids floaties and their own goggles, but they do have equipment for rent if needed. We had a pleasant visit and will definitely come back again.

Pool check in is disorganized, no one was available when we arrived,canopy rentals are old ours was broken on one side. People were leaving plastics and cans, there was something brown floating, GROSS! The best thing was our waitress she was personable, kind and efficient. I don't recommend Horseshoe Casino Hotel in any form or fashion it is terrible.

I came here with some girlfriends on Saturday morning to celebrate a bachelorette party. From 10am-11am, they have Buy One Get One Free mimosas or bloody marys. We were lucky to get Tiffany as our waitress-she was so sweet, friendly and attentive! She checked in on us often, brought us waters, and even reminded us to hydrate lol! Thanks, Tiffany for your exceptional service!The pool also had a great playlist with a variety of pop music that had us singing and dancing the whole time!

Love pool was okay. We enjoyed our pool day. I would suggest making an announcement when the bar is closing. We walked up and so did 3 other people behind us and waited to be told 5 mins later it's closed by staff. There was a dj and we heard him the whole time so maybe make a "last call" announcement at least. But if I stayed here again I would suggest it. Just honestly to secure seating or rentals.

My husband and I really enjoyed the Blu Pool. We highly suggest investing in a cabana for the day. You get it from 9am to whenever the pool closes. They keep the fridge stocked with bottled water, there is a TV, a ceiling fan, and misters. If you get there right away at 9am, you can probably pick which one you want time be in. It was $100 well spent. If you think you will finish a pitcher of drinks, get that. It's the best value.

We came here for the weekend, such a great pool. We were happy they were open as we have heard many pools have a nationwide shortage of lifeguards. They have a 12 foot deep end !! Staff was friendly and they have some great frozen drinks during a hot Vegas summer! I enjoyed my day bed and hung out by the pool. They were open 10am till 5 pm.. thanks for a great experience at Ballys!

Ive seen better pools but i like this one a lot - chill, better crowd and super nice employees-- rented a day bed and wer taken care of really good.. su'um i NEVER experience from other places. Huge shout out to Chandler and Tiffany.. you two def made our stay better. Thank you!!!! keep up the good work and positive attitude.. dealing w people around the world is not an easy job but you guys make it happen .. impressive!
