The Stratosphere is the northernmost of the major Strip casinos and the only one actually in the City of Las Vegas. While the Stratosphere was originally intended to become a major tourist attraction and major strip property while it was being built, it was decidedly less popular than first envisioned due to its distance from the other major Hotel Casinos and attractions on the Strip. It now has a reputation for being less expensive than many Strip hotels. Many visitors find its location at the far end of the Strip inconvenient and the area immediately to the north – between the Stratosphere and Downtown – a little seedy.
