Eiffel Tower at the Paris Las Vegas Hotel, Las Vegas (must see)

Inspired by its Parisian counterpart, the Eiffel Tower replica, one of the city’s most romantic landmarks, is a defining feature of the Paris Las Vegas Hotel, which embraces the visual and cultural themes of the French capital.

One of the tower’s main attractions is its observation deck, set at approximately 460 feet above the ground, offering expansive panoramic views of the Las Vegas Strip and surrounding valley. The property is owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment. Early plans called for a full-scale replica of the original Eiffel Tower, but its proximity to Harry Reid International Airport required a reduction in height. As a result, the structure was built to a still-impressive height of 540 feet, ensuring it would not interfere with air traffic.

Paris Las Vegas officially opened on September 1, 1999, marked by a fireworks display launched from the tower itself. A distinctive architectural feature of the complex is the way the tower’s rear supports descend through the ceiling and into the casino floor below. This interior space is decorated with French-style wrought-iron streetlamps, while the ceiling is painted to resemble an open sky, enhancing the illusion of an outdoor Parisian setting.

Inside the tower is the Eiffel Tower Restaurant, known for its fine dining and elevated views, as well as the Eiffel Tower Experience, which serves as one of the resort’s signature attractions. Since its debut, the tower has appeared in numerous films and television productions, including 10.5: Apocalypse, Resident Evil: Extinction, Godzilla, and the post-credits scene of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.

Tip:
Some areas feature transparent floor sections and it may be challenging for those with a fear of heights.
