Arrival: The minute you arrive to Hanover, Md.’s months-old Live! hotel, you know it’s GAME TIME! The staff is super friendly and I loved the colorful interactive screen behind the check-in counter. Their hotel lounge/waiting area located at the entrance of the hotel is well decorated and super modern, too.
The Room: The beds in our room are designed with regal gold accents to get you feeling lucky, and they were super comfy too! Also loved that we had a big window which gave us great natural light. Despite the hotel being attached to a casino, you don’t hear much partying noises in your room at night. They also have the cutest coffee cups! The huge marble bathrooms are also stocked with lots of beauty essentials. I should mention that their Live! Lofts come with an equipped kitchen with a full-sized refrigerator, microwave, two-burner stove and dishwasher, so very convenient for those staying for a little longer than a day.
What We Loved: We went there for a very special occasion and that was to relive our 90’s memories! Vanilla Ice and Salt n Peppa held a concert inside the casino’s auditorium and we def enjoyed each and single performance. After the concert we had dinner at 8 at Luk Fu, which overlooks all the gambling actions. They have some seriously delicious sushi and an awesome DJ! The lively vibe is very Vegas, so don’t feel bad about ordering that second sake bomb. Also I should mention that their restaurant, David’s is open 24/7 which was the first restaurant we tried upon arrival. If you are craving sweets during your stay, visit their gelato stand named Lucky’s! Super cute, my favorite flavor was pistachio.
SCDC Tip: The hotel is only a few blocks away from the Arundel Mills outlets so if you forgot to pack something, no worries! You have plenty to choose from. Also the hotel offers some real fun packages that can make your stay even sweeter, so make sure to check those offers HERE! You can also plan your stay based on an event in which you want to attend, you can check out their full calendar of events here! Also, as always, if you have any questions about my stay or need more tips, find me on instagram and shoot me a Dm @spicycandydc.
