Quick Verdict: Ellis Island Hotel vs ARIA Resort & Casino

When Ellis Island Hotel wins: If you want lower rates, free self-parking, straightforward rooms, casual on-site restaurants (pizza, BBQ, 24/7 diner) and a family-friendly vibe one block from the Strip, Ellis Island is the practical pick.

When ARIA wins: If you want modern luxury, a very large room inventory, a branded full-service spa, multiple upscale restaurants and bars, bigger pools and a large casino floor, choose ARIA for a resort-centric stay on the Strip.
