Las Vegas, NV – Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino has launched the Imperial Sky Villa in celebration of Elvis Presley’s 90th birthday. The hotel is honoring the legacy of the King of Rock and Roll, who is recognized as the biggest-selling solo artist of all time, with this luxurious new accommodation.
The Imperial Sky Villa is part of the hotel’s “Year of Elvis” tribute and has been rebranded from the Tuscany Sky Villa. This renovation coincides with Elvis’s remarkable history with the hotel; he performed a celebrated concert series starting in 1969 that helped to open the International Hotel, now known as Westgate Las Vegas.
Elvis was a fixture of the hotel, hosting 636 consecutive sold-out shows over seven years. The new suite, which spans an impressive 13,200 square feet, offers a glimpse into the past where Elvis once resided, having initially been referred to as the “Elvis Presley Suite.” This is the very space where he conducted his routines and engaged with friends and family during his performances.
Within the suite, guests can find a spacious living area that includes the original fireplace that once held Elvis’s bed. Additional features include a media room, a private pool with an expansive deck, and exquisite hand-painted murals reminiscent of the rock star’s vibrant life. A plaque displaying the original blueprints of the hotel, which highlights the layout of Elvis’s suite, adds to the historical significance of the Imperial Sky Villa.
The top floor of the hotel once hosted a lounge called the Skyroom, frequented by Elvis and several close associates. Guests are treated to spectacular city views through the full-length windows, and the ambiance is heightened by gas-lit fireplaces throughout the suite.
The two master suites within the villa boast spa-inspired bathrooms featuring marble-walled showers and step-down Jacuzzi tubs, effectively capturing the plush lifestyle associated with Elvis during his time in Las Vegas. Throughout the villa, photographs of Elvis’s press conferences and various events tied to his Las Vegas performances adorn the walls, immersing guests in the rich history of his connection to the locale.
The Imperial Sky Villa has undergone significant enhancements, receiving a $60 million renovation approximately 30 years ago, which has turned it into one of the standout accommodations at Westgate Las Vegas. In addition to this suite, the hotel is also home to the world’s largest race and sports book, along with an array of entertainment options.
Reservations for the Imperial Sky Villa are currently open to guests, with rates beginning at approximately $20,000 per night. As part of the ongoing birthday celebrations, Westgate Las Vegas is also hosting a series of Elvis-themed events throughout the year, further cementing the hotel’s commitment to honoring the King of Rock and Roll.
In summary, the Imperial Sky Villa offers a unique blend of luxury accommodation and historical homage to Elvis Presley, making it a notable destination for fans and visitors looking to revel in the enduring legacy of one of music’s greatest icons.
