Hell yeah! I always stayed at the Hilton just for the Experience. I guess I’ll move to the Golden Nugget (Rooms are cheaper too!)

Star Trek going to Fremont Experience is Awesome! As a local, I will be hitting that place up all the time! It looks like they are going to put allot into this time and they have the funds to go all out on it! I still tell people to boycott The Las Vegas Hilton. They are a bunch of creeps! The Star Trek sign is still up yet they made such a big deal about The Experience being packed up by December 1, 2008 yet the sign is still up……gee could they still be trying to get Trekers into their crappy hotel? Hmmmm….I wonder! Cant wait til all the new northern strip hotels open up, then hilton will be coming down forever! I think it would make a nice parking lot for the convention to use!!

GOOD NEW, GOOD NEWS……………..word in Las Vegas is the Star Trek Experience is being located to Neonoplis, which is located on Fremont Street (old Las Vegas). I am sure the bookings at the Golden Nugget (4 star hotel) will increase dramatically due to their proximity to the relocaed Star Trek Experience.

i find it to be such a lowblow by those responsable for the closure
of the experience that they can ignore all of us like they are. like
i wrote before the hilton has lost me aa a customer because of’
what they have done. this goes to show how bad greed is . to them
we are nothing but peons. maybe someday those responable
will learn , but that is asking too much i quess.

My first visit to Vegas was back in the end of 1997, STTE was posted all over the airport when we came in, but it was not open yet and I remember being really disappointed at the time. Fast forward to 2000 which was my next trip to Vegas, and my first time at STTE. All I can say is WOW! what a great experience it was. Although I really love Vegas anyway, this was a catalyst that from 2000 to now made me keep taking vacations to Vegas (about 3-5 times per year). I’m really sorry to hear this news as my wife and I had plans to go this December. We always make Quarks one of our places to eat and enjoyed browsing the ST gift shop. Although my wife was not much of a ST fan, she really enjoyed Quarks and even the interactive shows. As others stated above though, only ST lovers can really grasp how great this place was. It would be nice to see this be reborn again in another Vegas hotel – with the leaps in computer and 3D technology over the last 10 years, I am sure something really cool could be made up. Trying to think of a good fit….maybe somewhere in MGM or have it replace the dated and rundown Midway at the Excalibur.

A vast sadness wells up in many of us when we realize that STTE is gone. I remember making the pilgrimage to Las Vegas to experience it. It was almost a religious revelation to hear the voice of Captain Picard as he greeted us in the transporter room of the Enterprise. I felt an unexpected lump in my throat as I stood on the ship’s bridge–it felt like home. Even though I was a grown man in my late forties at the time, my suspension of disbelief was so complete that I actually wept when Captain Janeway arrived in Voyager to save us from the Borg in the 4-D ride admid the sweeping Voyager theme music. I saw it only once and it easily ranked among my best experiences in life. Non-Trekkies may not understand, but for those of us who do, this is a poignant loss indeed.

I am really upset at the LV Hilton and Cedar Fair! For me, I visited Star Trek the Experience when I was at a serious crossroads in my life. I was seriously depressed, in the middle of a divorce, and leaving a 20-year career path. I stayed at the LVH and went to STE everyday, sometimes two or three times per day for five days. The experience gave me the chance to dream and hope as Roodenberry’s creation intended for all of us to do. When I got back home, I felt so much better and Star Trek continues to be a huge part of my life. I was planning a trip at the end of this year until this sad news came to me via a friend.
I am really sad. I just hope that STE finds a new home, because wherever it goes, I’m going.
