    If you are staying at the hotel, do they charge you to sit in their chairs?

    Is there any free service for hotel guests? Such as water, towels, newspaper, drinks , snacks etc?

    The pools that come to mind are mandarian oriental and cosmopolitan?

    Any tips for a vegas pool visit in one of those hotels?

    Is the pool water actually clean?

    Thanks!

    Sorry, did you take offense to my question?

    Only looking for some tips , never been to vegas, ive read certain places charge $50 or more just for a chair, but thought it was odd if you are a guest at the same hotel?

    Can help with Mandarin --

    If you're staying there, no charge for a chair but there will be a charge for a cabana. Throughout the day servers bring by small snacks --I remember frozen fruit and smoothies -- and there's an actual cafe from which you can order. I left a tip on the table next to my chair when I left for the snacks and general attentiveness.

    Pool water was clean.

    It's a very relaxing pool experience especially compared with many other places in Vegas.

    No disrespect shemesh, but the (many) posts you are making contain questions that have mostly been asked before. This site has a great search function that will provide you with nearly any answer you're looking for.

    Cosmo has chairs that you have to pay for, and free ones as well. You obviously
    Must be a hotel guest and show to your key card to enter. There is a bar, and a restaurant. Also waitresses that will come around and take your order.

    I've only been to the boulevard pool that overlooks the strip. Pretty awesome view. It was pretty dead in the morning when I was there in May. It wasn't the weekend though, and certainly not a holiday weekend. I'm sure it will get packed early.

    Cosmo has 2995 hotel rooms, I would imagine they will be close to sold out. The pool is party central at cosmo so they will fill up almost immediately. If you aren't walking in when they open at 8am no chance at a chair.

    You didn't think a pool with a day club in one of the hippest strip hotels on a long weekend would be busy?

    If you want a chair pay for one, it is yours all day. Vegas isn't cheap, if you aren't ready to shell out cash which based on your other posts you arent, a busy weekend is probably the worst time to go.
