"Wynn's 2008 all-suite tower, with XS Nightclub built into the building."
Why this rank: Encore at Wynn opened in December 2008 as Steve Wynn's all-suite tower beside Wynn Las Vegas. Its 2,034 suites start around 745 square feet, with larger Duplex and multi-bedroom tower suites above. XS Nightclub sits one elevator below the lobby and Encore Beach Club one floor down, the shortest suite-to-club distance on the Strip. Sinatra, Andrea's and Wazuzu anchor the restaurants, and the shared Wynn-Encore concierge runs dining, club tables and cabanas as one programme. Both towers hold the Forbes Five-Star rating. The caveat is scale: a 2,000-suite casino resort with resort fees and a nightlife crowd. Best for a central-Strip stay that wants suite space and on-site clubs.
Best room: Duplex Tower Suite, about 1,500 sq ft, Strip view
"XS Nightclub adjacency, two-bedroom suites, the group-of-twelve check-in."
Encore is the second tower of the Wynn Las Vegas resort, linked to Wynn by the Esplanade but run as its own all-suite hotel. Its 2,034 rooms are all suites, starting at about 745 square feet, so even the entry room is a two-room stay. What sets it apart on the Strip is the nightlife built into the building: XS Nightclub is one elevator below the lobby and Encore Beach Club one floor down, the shortest suite-to-club walk of any Vegas hotel. Larger Duplex and multi-bedroom tower suites suit groups, and the shared Wynn-Encore concierge coordinates dining, club tables and cabanas as one service. The honest caveat: this is a 2,000-suite casino resort with resort fees and a party-driven crowd, so travellers after quiet should look to Wynn next door or the Four Seasons. Best for a central-Strip stay that wants suite space and club access in one place.
A Duplex Tower Suite (about 1,500 sq ft) for the Strip view and space, or an Encore Tower Suite for two.
Encore is the closer tower to XS, so book here if the club is the centre of the trip. Larger tower suites book directly through Encore reservations, and a host is assigned for bigger groups.
Encore at Wynn Las Vegas sits within our broader Top 20 Hotels in Las Vegas list. It scored an aggregate 9.8/10 across our three editorial criteria, near the top of the field, with the suite-and-nightlife angle above earning its rank. For alternatives on the same stretch of the Strip, see the other Las Vegas hotels below. For a different city, see the related lists.
Have firm dates? Our editor's advice is to book roughly twelve weeks in advance. Suites with the prime view angle sell through first; for peak months, availability is measured in months rather than weeks. Top-category rooms with private pools or terraces, the reason this hotel ranks here, are routinely the first gone.

Encore at Wynn Las Vegas's case for the Las Vegas stay is the on-property XS Nightclub combined with the Wynn-Encore shared concierge. The 2008 property is Steve Wynn's adjacent tower to Wynn Las Vegas; the property's in-suite wristband distribution and direct elevator access to XS Nightclub preserve privacy and time.
The 2,034 rooms and suites include the Encore Tower Suites at 745 sq ft, the Duplex Tower Suites at 1,500 sq ft, and the Salon Suite at 5,829 sq ft.
XS Nightclub, built into the property, is among the most consequential Las Vegas clubs of the past fifteen years, and Encore Beach Club runs day parties Thursday through Sunday from April to October. Sinatra, Andrea's and Wazuzu anchor the dining, and the shared Wynn-Encore concierge handles club tables, restaurant booking and cabanas as one service. The Encore Spa covers wellness. Together the two towers hold the Forbes Five-Star rating on a central-Strip site. Best for a Las Vegas stay that wants suite space and on-site nightlife in one place.
