Age and kids policy at W Las Vegas: what families should know
W Las Vegas requires the booking guest to be at least 21 to check in; the property and many official listings describe it as an adults-oriented hotel. Families with children can stay, but some amenities (the BATHHOUSE Spa and an Adult-Only Pool) restrict younger guests or are reserved for adults.
In this guide
Minimum check-in age — the core rule
W Las Vegas enforces a minimum check-in age of 21 for the booking guest. At check-in you must present a valid photo ID and a credit card; a deposit may be taken (the property lists a USD 100 per accommodation, per day authorization as possible).
The official hotel listing frames the property as adults-oriented because of this 21+ rule. If a party includes younger travelers, plan for an adult (21 or older) to be the named booking guest and to handle check-in formalities.
- Check-in window: 3:00 PM to midnight (late arrivals should contact the property a day in advance).
- Check-out: 11:00 AM.
- Photo ID and credit card are required at check-in; deposit/authorization may apply.
| Item | Policy |
|---|---|
| Minimum check-in age | 21 (booking guest) |
| Check-in / Check-out | 3:00 PM / 11:00 AM |
| Deposit at check-in | May be USD 100 per day (authorization) |
Can children stay at W Las Vegas?
Yes — children are allowed to stay as long as the booking guest checking in is 21 or older. Multiple public listings indicate 'Children are welcome' while the property maintains the minimum check-in age.
Because the hotel is positioned as adults-oriented and enforces the 21+ check-in rule, some services and spaces are restricted by age (see the pools and spa section). If traveling with minors, check amenity-specific rules before arrival and ask concierge about family-friendly options at Mandalay Bay next door.
- Book under an adult (21+) name who will check in and be at the front desk if possible.
- Ask the hotel in advance for a pet-friendly room or any special requests (pet fee applies if bringing a pet).
- For larger families, consider booking suites such as W Premier Suite, W Premier Two Bedroom Suite, or W Penthouse II City View Suite for more sleeping space.
| Suggested suite types (examples) | Beds (as listed by the hotel) |
|---|---|
| W Premier Suite | 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds |
| W Premier Two Bedroom Suite | 1 King Bed and 2 Queen Beds |
| W Penthouse II City View Suite | 1 King Bed (2046 sq. ft. / City View / 3 Guests) |
Pools and pool rules families should know
W Las Vegas operates the WET Deck outdoor pool and lists an Adult-Only Pool among its pool offerings. Cabanas at the WET Deck are available for a surcharge; towels are provided at the pools.
Because of the Adult-Only Pool designation and the hotel's adult-oriented positioning, access to some pool spaces may be limited to adults. For full-family pool options, guests can also use the Mandalay Bay beach/pool environment connected to the resort complex — ask concierge for details and access rules.
- WET Deck: outdoor pool with cabanas available for a surcharge.
- Adult-Only Pool: complimentary towels provided; access limited to adults.
- Pool hours vary (one aggregator lists 9:00 AM–6:00 PM for the outdoor pool); verify with the hotel on arrival.
| Pool | Notes |
|---|---|
| WET Deck (outdoor) | Cabanas available (surcharge); hours may vary |
| Adult-Only Pool | Access restricted to adults |
| Mandalay Bay pools | Additional beach/lazy-river pools accessible to W guests (ask concierge) |
Spa and fitness: age limits and what to expect
The on-site BATHHOUSE Spa has a minimum age of 18 for entry; guests under 18 are not permitted. The spa runs on a schedule (open Thursday through Monday, closed Tuesday and Wednesday), and enforces a no-cell-phone policy in treatment and relaxation areas.
Spa day passes and treatments are available to hotel guests; the spa charges a service charge on treatments and provides locker-room amenities. The hotel's fitness center is available to guests — check at booking or with the front desk for hours and any guest rules.
- Spa minimum age: 18 (no under-18s in the spa).
- Spa hours: Thursday–Monday (8:30 AM–5:00 PM) per spa listings; closed Tue–Wed.
- Spa day-pass and treatment fees apply; a 20% service charge is commonly added to spa treatments.
| Amenity | Minimum age |
|---|---|
| BATHHOUSE Spa | 18 |
| Adult-Only Pool | Adult-only (age not numerically specified beyond 'adult' — hotel enforces adult access) |
| Fitness center | Open to hotel guests (check hotel for any age supervision rules) |
Dining and bar access with kids
The hotel's dining lineup centers on 3940 Coffee and Tea for breakfast and lunch, plus two bar/lounge venues: Living Room (lobby lounge) and Skyfall Rooftop Bar and Lounge. Because check-in is 21+, the hotel's overall atmosphere and its bars are experienced within an adult-oriented setting.
Skyfall Rooftop Bar and Lounge operates as a rooftop cocktail venue and may have age restrictions for entry to the bar area; Living Room is the lobby lounge serving signature cocktails. 3940 Coffee and Tea serves American breakfast and lunch items and is the primary daytime dining option on-site.
- 3940 Coffee and Tea: coffee house menu for breakfast and lunch (surcharge for breakfast items).
- Skyfall Rooftop Bar and Lounge: rooftop cocktail bar on the 64th floor (evening focus; age checks likely for bar areas).
- Living Room: lobby lounge for cocktails and social gatherings; expect an adults-oriented atmosphere.
| Venue | Typical service |
|---|---|
| 3940 Coffee and Tea | Breakfast and lunch (coffee house fare) |
| Skyfall Rooftop Bar and Lounge | Cocktails and small plates (evening) |
| Living Room | Lobby lounge, signature cocktails |
Rooms, extra beds and family practicalities
W Las Vegas is an all-suite property and lists suite types such as W Premier Suite, W Corner Suite, W Escape Strip View Suite, W Premier Two Bedroom Suite, W Penthouse Superior Suite, W Penthouse II City View Suite, W Penthouse I Suite, and W Escape Stadium View Suite. Larger suites can be more practical for families because they provide separate living space.
The hotel allows rollaway beds for an additional fee and may charge extra-person fees. Because some details (exact rollaway pricing or maximum child ages for no-charge stays) are not stated in the public dossier, ask the hotel at booking for rules that apply to your specific reservation.
- All-suite property — consider W Premier Two Bedroom Suite or W Premier Suite for more space.
- Rollaway beds and extra-person charges: available for a fee (confirm amounts with the hotel).
- Pet policy: pets are allowed with a non-refundable pet fee (the hotel lists $150 per night; confirm if a different rate applies).
| Suite name (examples) | Sleeping configuration (as listed) |
|---|---|
| W Premier Suite | 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds |
| W Escape Strip View Suite | 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds |
| W Premier Two Bedroom Suite | 1 King Bed and 2 Queen Beds |
Practical tips for families and groups traveling with kids
If you’re traveling with children, name an adult (21+) as the booking guest who will present ID at check-in. Confirm any needed rollaway bed, crib or extra-person arrangement before arrival and ask the front desk about connecting rooms or suite placement if that matters to your group.
For family-friendly pool time or activities, ask the concierge how W guests can use Mandalay Bay’s pool and beach complex. If you need to be in public areas with younger children, plan visits to daytime, family-oriented attractions nearby such as Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay.
- Have the adult guest’s ID and credit card ready at check-in to avoid delays.
- Confirm amenity age limits (spa 18+, adult-only pool) with the hotel before planing spa or pool time.
- Use the Mandalay Bay pools/beach if you need more family-oriented water options—check access rules with concierge.
| Need | What to do |
|---|---|
| Check-in (family with minors) | Adult (21+) checks in with ID and card |
| Family pool time | Confirm which onsite pools permit children; ask about Mandalay Bay access |
| Spa access | Guests must be 18 or older for BATHHOUSE Spa |
