24 Hours @ The BEST Themed Las Vegas Resort | New York-New York Hotel & Casino | Vegas Hotel Review

[@LuisSanchez-iw7bi]

I love Themed resorts, no matter if it's its low end. Love Excalibur, Love Luxor, The Orleans Is one of my favorites, Sam's Town, Venetian, and NY NY. Great video as always Guys!!

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

I love a good theme. Resorts, Restaurants or Parties… themes often make them better in my mind. We’re glad that you enjoyed the video! Thank you so much for watching and commenting. We really appreciate it. -James

[@jeff.w]

Thanks James and Paul for showing a comprehensive tour of New York New York. It’s a fun hotel! I gotta check it out sometime. My favorite theme hotel is Paris 😊

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

@@jeff.w we’re so glad that you enjoyed the video! We love Paris too! We stayed there during our wedding and honeymoon, so there is a lot of sentiment associated with it. We’ll actually be staying there in December, so expect a Paris video coming out in 2025. -James

[@ravenmoon8087]

I love you guys. I could watch for hours. You both are getting so professional and you keep it light and funny. Hugs and can't wait for the next trip! ❤

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Thanks Raven! We really appreciate the kind words and we’re so glad to hear that the improvements we’ve been trying to implement are coming across to our audience. We love you too! We thoroughly appreciate the support! Thanks again! -James

[@kims1941]

We're a little behind in watching but better late than never. Last year we stayed at NYNY for the very first time and liked it a lot. Our room was a premium and had even more floor space. The casino was pretty lucky for us and we enjoyed ice cream cookie sandwiches from the Hershey store.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

No worries at all! We still appreciate you watching! We loved staying at NYNY. It’s got so much to offer. Comfortable rooms, lots of great dining. Decent location. I recommend them all the time, and I’m already looking forward to stay there again in the future. I kind of love the Hershey’s Store. I’m a Reese’s addict. -James

[@Bobbystravels]

We spent our last evening here lastnight and loved it. Lovely food and a great atmosphere.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

It really did surprise us. We have been there many times to eat at multiple places there (or to film segments for other videos) but hadn’t actually stayed there until we made this video. This is pretty much IMO the Planet Hollywood equivalent for properties under the MGM umbrella. Which means… it’s perfect for those who may want a bit more than the budget properties. But also don’t want to spend what it costs to stay at the higher end properties. It’s the happy medium. Plus the casino is lots of fun that’s always a plus. -Paul

[@vichyssoise80]

We absolutely LOVE this place. Me and my wife came to the conclusion that we'd rather stay in a place like this rather than a luxury place. the vibes are nice. My wife fell in love with all of the small details around the hotel. As a matter of fact, planning for 2025 trip already and she told me to book New York New York again! Greenberg's Deli. So nice I visited twice lol The brisket and pastrami with a little bit of Gulden's mustard. This is the sandwich of my dreams. So good. Mad Apple was incredible. Though we just got a Shake Shack at home (we JUST got one a couple of months ago lol), we made it a point every time we came to eat there. Wife LOVED Chocolate Bar! Capriotti's is awesome. There was one in my hometown and I would usually get the wagyu cheesesteak (so good) but it's gone. When I was in Vegas in May, I didn't see the cheesesteak there, but the place is so good. There's more places in that hotel I'd like go eat at and go to! Looking forward to being there again next year! This video further convinced me!

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

There are so many other places we have yet to try at NYNY (such as Chin Chin’s AYCE Brunch) - It truly is a great property. We have Capriotti’s at home in Phoenix, and can I just say, The Bobby is definitely a favorite. Thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ -Paul

[@luvtravel2927]

Roller coaster Paul congrats taking one for the team lol 😂

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

I love roller coasters. But the older I get the more they don’t like me 😵‍💫 This one is rough though, but it’s a great option if you are there and just want to feel like you’re at a theme park. But totally use the MyVegas discounts if you have them available to you. -Paul

[@mikeyeldey]

I feel like the only person in the world who likes that coaster lol. Love the view over the strip on the two drops, and the layout keeps things fun with the turns and inversions

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

I enjoyed it. It’s just very rough. But I will say this, the current restraints they have for it are a lot less painful than the old ones that it had when I rode it a decade ago. The old ones had me hitting my head around them. As a theme park fan, I do wish Vegas had more roller coasters. -Paul

[@JayJayKayTV]

Great video. Absolutely love NYNY. Would never really have considered staying there until your video of that suite! If you are into drag shows, the brunch at senor frogs at TI is great, we've been going for the last 10 years and never seen anyone cover it! Excellent content always x

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

The suite was AMAZING. That hot tub was LIFE!!! And we sure spent some time in it after filming Hofbräuhaus and slot plays that night. As for the Drag Brunch at Señor Frogs, while we have not planned it into our content schedule, I do feel like it would be a fun thing to feature, and a drag brunch is definitely a plus for fun content that we haven’t seen other channels feature. So that is a great suggestion. That being said, we definitely would love to make a stay at Treasure Island so that could be something that we do plan into the content when that stay does happen (our next “booked” properties for 2024 are Circa, Plaza, Mandalay Bay, Aria, and Paris) but Treasure Island is on that list to try so while it’s not scheduled or planned, it’s definitely something we will be happy to consider when planning a stay ❤️ -Paul

[@timprovphilly]

New York, New York is one of the favorite places we've statyed at. I love it's location, and the fact that you don't need to go far to get any kind of food you want. As a rolloer coaster lover I do enjoy the roller coaster a lot. Sure, it's not the best but it's fun and, for thrill coaster, it's pretty a long ride. We were surprised to find out the Choloate bar isn't assicated with the Hershey store. For years I thought it was! Still, love to go there and get me a Jolly Ranger shot and a martini. Also, agree about the pizza, only one place to get a good one.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

It certainly has enough to offer so that you could easily stay for a few nights and never really have to leave to eat or be entertained. Having stayed twice now, I would absolutely go back any time. Thanks for taking the time to comment! You know we appreciate it. -James

[@1momof03]

Why did I just discover your channel! Love it!

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Awe thank you. The algorithm is a mysterious thing… but we are glad you did and welcome to the channel ❤️ We have a Vegas vlog every Saturday at 9:00am PST and a slot play session every Sunday at 9:00am PST - So whether you come for the vlogs or the slots (or both), we have new Vegas content every week. -Paul

[@luvtravel2927]

Looking so dapper for dinner love fancy

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Thank you! We love dressing up for dinner. -James

[@Paula.Restivo]

I really enjoyed this video. Gallagers looks amazing. Actually, all the food looked delicious. Thank you guys for showing so much on your videos so we don’t have to miss some amazing places!

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

We didn’t even cover it all 😮 - There’s some places we just could not get to in the 24 hours. For the places we couldn’t cover, they have Il Fornao for Italian Cuisine, Chin Chin for Asian fusion (and Chin Chin offers a brunch buffet in the mornings), Tom’s Watch Bar (for more beers on tap and bar food), Pour 24 for craft beers, and Gonzalez Y Gonzalez for casual Tex Mex food. But we did try to feature as much as we could for this video, and that’s one reason the video is a bit topheavy with the food because there’s just so much food at NYNY to cover. This is a food centric property with a lot of options at many accessible price points. Thank you so much for watching and commenting ❤️ -Paul

[@davids6898]

You two all dressed up at Gallaghers and the person in the tank top in the background. 😂😂😂

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

I didn't notice that until I was editing the video. But I also won't judge others for wanting to stay cool in the summer and dressing down for dinner (It was hot that night). With exception of anything we filmed in July when it was almost 120 degrees (We still kept it classy with button up shirts and nice pants), we do try to always dress up for dinner. As a millennial, I am all about the comfort clothing when at home or for casual experiences, but when out for a nice dinner or in Vegas, the opportunity to dress up nice for the evening can be a lot of fun. -Paul

[@kk1089]

Just subscribed. I love how you guys talk about food. 2 trips to NYNY in Jan and Feb. for me!! Thanks for the preview. Still my fav hotel. ❤

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

We’re so glad that you enjoyed the video and we appreciate you taking the time to comment! NYNY is easily one of my favorite resorts on the strip. It offers so much for its guests, and as foodies, we love the variety of options available to us while staying there. We’ve got lots more coming every week! We hope that you continue to enjoy our content. -James

[@brodyL9697]

Such a great video!! I appreciate the work and detail you guys put into your videos! I’m sure it’s a lot of work!! NYNY looks like a great place to stay! Missing Vegas a lot right now but your videos make me miss it less :)

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Awe thank you, we can totally relate to missing Vegas, it’s a vibe - As for the video, this one was definitely a beast to put together. To peel back the curtain a bit, we literally filmed it pretty smoothly in the 24 hours (minus the bonus segments we put in), but editing this one took more than a week 😮. As the person who does all the editing between the off hours of my 40hr work week, it can be a huge undertaking to do these hotel videos so the kind words on the detail we put in really means a lot to hear. Thank you for watching, the comment, and the support ❤️ -Paul

[@EWitz1]

Looked great! We got the lamb and bison strip at Gallagher’s and both were super dry. I’ll def head back and give their other steaks a try.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that. I will say that it is by no means the best steakhouse we’ve been to in Vegas (that will be coming soon), but they did do a solid job during our visit. Honestly, I’d say Gallaghers is a good option if your staying on site and don’t want to go far. -James

[@allanmoore4840]

A great video!. Like you, I believe that NYNY is the best medium priced hotel in terms of cleanliness, reasonably priced food options, facilities and location near other attractions . Thanks for taking us along.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

I liken NYNY as the property in the MGM umbrella that offers something for everyone. The location cannot be beat and while we did not feature our review of it in the video (because that was not part of the 24 hour stay), I loved Beerhaus and definitely say that if you love Beer, then NYNY is the property for you as they have Pour 24 and Beerhaus on property offering up craft beers. As you saw in the video, we enjoyed NYNY so much we just had to come back and show off the suite. Thanks for watching. -Paul

I can’t escape the smoke in that casino as much as I love everything else about the resort!

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

I can’t say that I’ve noticed it, but up until about 4 weeks ago, I was a smoker. It will be interesting seeing how I react to the smell when I return next week. -James

[@BrentSm]

This year we'll be staying at NY NY. Other stops were just to gamble eat stroll and ride the roller-coaster. It'll be a change fir us my family and i👍

Up until this video, that was the exact same for us! I would definitely return for another stay though. -James

@@JamesandPaulTryitAll 🤣🤣🤣I love it!

[@robbiew4534]

I haven't stayed there but Cheetah and I snuck in one day to ride the roller coaster. It was a bit pricey for a ride and tricky to find in the building but the ride itself was a lot of fun for us.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

The coaster is a lot of fun - backbreaking but fun. I will definitely say that it’s always a plus as a fan of theme parks to stay at a casino with a roller coaster. -Paul

[@steveh5530]

what?? cute bear guys in vegas. love you both

Awwww, shucks. We love you for saying we’re cute! Thank you so much! We’re glad that you’re enjoying the channel! -James

[@qsaxq]

We always look forward to your videos. We stop at NYNY to eat all the time (esp. for the ceviche at the Mexican place). The front-most seats on the rollercoaster are far less jarring; the back of the middle car is fun but kinda ouchy.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

We still need to Try Gonzalez Y Gonzalez and Chin Chin for their brunch. I didn’t say it on the video but I got the front seat of middle car on the coaster and yeah… it’s a rough coaster. I’m still a bit salty they wouldn’t let me sneak my GoPro on (because it ain’t going anywhere on a chest harness and is technically no longer a “loose item”), but rules are rules. The guy at the front literally saw me filming on it and was like, “you have to lock it up” 😭 -Paul

[@qsaxq]

@@JamesandPaulTryitAll Yes, they’re weirdly strict, but very accommodating about where you sit if you’re willing to wait. Gonzalez Y Gonzalez is worth a try (I always blank on the name, so thanks).

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Absolutely!

With only 24 hours our goal was to “Divide & Conquer” I did sneak a sip of that Reese’s Martini and it was delicious 🤤 -Paul

[@taylourhudson]

My husband and I are currently planning a Vegas trip for December. Would you recommend this hotel (New York New York) or planet Hollywood?

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Honestly… we think either option is fantastic. NYNY has more theme, but PH is still very comfortable. Both have a good amount of affordable dining and amenities on site or near by. I like the bathrooms in the rooms at PH more though. If you haven’t seen it already, we do have a Planet Hollywood video on the channel as well. -James

[@fredrichinds6609]

The potato puree was $48?!

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

So sorry for that… That was a typo that I did not notice while editing (and even watching this twice before exporting) It was $13 - and I must have inadvertently hit command+Z while editing at some point to fix something and it reverted (because I distinctly remember typing in $13) and not caught it 😭 -Paul

[@fredrichinds6609]

@@JamesandPaulTryitAll Oh thank god, that's good news. Haha.

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

For the most part. The prices at Gallagher’s were pretty decent for a Las Vegas Strip steakhouse. Especially when compared to other options at other resorts where we have paid much more. It’s still not cheap, but our total bill after tip was far less than what we have paid elsewhere. -Paul

[@TheAyatollahofNofappollah]

Awesome! 1 26:39 What did you guys have to drink? 2 How noisy or annoying was the roller coaster? 3 How was the check-in? I know that you guys are up there in rewards. Were there a lot of miserable people in long lines? 4 How were the elevators? Wait time? Shaky? 5 Thanks 😊

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

We did not order cocktails with dinner (it was day 7 for us and admittedly we didn’t want to drink a lot as we had to be up at the airport early the next morning). The roller coaster was not too noisy. You could slightly hear it as the chain lift did its thing but it was much quieter than our room at Planet Hollywood where you could hear the DJ music. You did hear it as well at the Village Street Eateries. Check in was smooth on both occasions. For this video we checked out of Planet Hollywood and went right to the check in desk at NYNY but on the second time when we did the suite, all of the check in and keys were done via self serve on the app and phone. This is one area where MGM shines over Caesars. You can literally bypass ever waiting in line with a mobile app check in (provided it works), and a push notification will automatically tell you when the room is ready. You can then activate the app to serve as your room key and your phone is essentially your room key so check in runs much smoother with MGM overall. Elevators were also pretty fast and efficient and in no way shaky. They were faster than others we have been in. Thanks for watching. -Paul

[@johnrandles9161]

That pizza was Sam's club quality for 4 times the price

[@JamesandPaulTryitAll]

Being Costco members, I’m not quite sure what Sam’s Club Pizza is like, but I will say that I thought Sirrico’s pizza was better than Costco pizza. It was a solid middle of the road slice. Not life changing, but I would absolutely eat it again if I was at NYNY, I was hungry, and wanted a meal for under 20 bucks. Now… New York Pizzeria on the second floor at the New York food hall is awful! Not to mention that the slices are even more expensive at about 14-15 after tax. That being said… everything is more expensive on the strip. That’s nothing new. A lot of the cheaper food options in Vegas are hot garbage, and you find yourself paying way more than what you would when not in a tourist area (for subpar food) Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! We appreciate it! -James
