    I've been offered three nights for free in the Forum Tower at Caesars Palace. I've never stayed at CP before. Is the Forum Tower a nice place to stay? Thanks.

    Thanks for sharing. As far as I can tell from what I've been reading online, CET renovated all of the rooms recently, so that makes me feel a little better. From the photos I've seen, the rooms seem to be similar to the Centurion Tower at Caesars Atlantic City.

    I've stayed in Forum tower several times and I thought it was pretty nice. I was in a renovated room. The room was up to date, had electric blinds, beds were comfortable. My only complaint was that I thought it was a bit of a walk to get to the room but most towers at Caesars are that way.

    I stayed at the Forum Tower and enjoyed it. They don't have the best views but the room was fine. The Forum Tower is close to the Strip, you have the Forum Casino, Race & Sports Book, Mesa Grill, Forum Shops, Omnia, right there.
    When you depart the Forum Tower elevators, you can also take a shortcut through Appian Way to get the pools, more shopping, etc.
    Keep this in mind.........the Towers start at Roman, then Forum, Palace, Augustus, and Octavius.
    Most people will tell you stay away from the Roman Tower, it's so old Caligula once stayed there. The Forum rooms on the other hand were great.
    If you can, you could try the $20 tip to upgrade to the Palace Tower, which is overlooking the pool and has larger rooms.

    I've been to CP the past 2 years and have been in the Forum Tower both times. First time was just put there by someone in my office who made the reservation for me. The second time I booked it myself. The rooms are nice, not extravagant, beds are comfortable, and showers are huge and amazing. The best part, as was mentioned above, the location can't be beat for access to food, shopping, strip, pool. That is, if you consider all of that together (not one by one), it's the perfect location. Maybe NOBU has it beat, but for the price, I will stay there again this year!

    I hope it's nice. Going to be there this summer and have never stayed in a Forum Tower room. Fingers crossed!!!

    Ok, I just booked the Forum Tower room. Anyone know if I can use express rewards for food at the Forum Food Court? Can I get tickets for the High Roller at the Caesars ticket windows? I've never stayed at CP before, so this is all new to me.

    Have stayed in Forum, Palace & Octavius...Forum is fine, but not nearly as nice as the other 2, which are very nice. I would never turn down a free Forum Tower room, they compare to standard rooms at the other CET properties. BUT CP is VERY generous with free or very low cost upgrades (or maybe free with $20 trick)--always worth the gamble!
