Ever look at a friend’s or an influencer’s posts on Instagram and feel pangs of jealousy? Yes, the land of “do it for the ‘gram'” can make us pine for a taste of the good life.
But don’t worry—we’re here to help you live your best social media life with a list of the most “Instagram-worthy” spots at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. From larger than life dog statues to a backdrop with 2 million crystals, here are a few of our favorite places to snap a photo in Vegas:

Steam Pump | Level 2, Boulevard Tower
We pride ourselves on art that’s equal parts beautiful and unconventional. As you explore the resort, you can’t miss a black high heel large enough to fit a few grown adults comfortably. Renowned artist Roark B. Gourley created this series of giant shoe sculptures back in 2010. Did he have any idea his creations would quickly become one of the most sought-after Instagram destinations on The Las Vegas Strip? We’re guessing he didn’t, but it’s a playful side effect.

When it comes to visual wonderlands, The Chandelier bar is almost impossible to beat. With three unique bar experiences encased in millions of crystals, this high-energy cocktail haven is your adult playground.

Digital Lobby Experience | Level 1, The Chelsea Tower
The moment you walk into the lobby, you’ll find yourself in an immersive and fantastical digital art installation that combines architecture, contemporary art, and technology. With eight 15-foot digital columns spanning the length of the Front Desk and digital narratives that change throughout the hour, the photo opportunities are endless.

The Travelers Have Arrived | Level 2, The Chelsea Tower
It’s not every day you see a Dogman and Rabbitwoman riding a donkey. This sculpture from husband-and-wife team Gillie and Marc have created pieces like this one for over 25 years. And this particular piece has found its way to Las Vegas from Sydney, Australia. This couple teaches us about love and acceptance because there isn’t much hope for anyone if a dog and rabbit can’t become best friends.
The Chelsea Grand Staircase | Level 2, The Chelsea Tower
Whether you’re there for a concert or comedy show, The Chelsea itself will no doubt be a highlight of your experience. The subway tiles, large chandelier, and industrial light fixtures cut an impressive image. But that walk on the Grand Staircase is a must-have photo to savor the moment.
Dog Statues | Level 2, The Chelsea Tower
It’s going to be hard to miss these five ceramic dogs, each about six feet tall, sitting in a circle … standing guard. Did we catch them just after dropping the next boy band hit? Perhaps a ceramic dog conga line? We’ll never know the answer to those questions. But we can visit them any time we want, which seems like the next best thing.
Purple Couch | Level 1, The Chelsea Tower
Tucked away just across from Vesper Bar is a plush purple couch with a crystal chandelier hanging overhead and a vintage rotary phone (surprise: it works). Both regal & luxe, this photo opp is perfect if you’re looking to add a little sophistication to your feed. Where will that call take you?
Terrace View | The Chelsea & Boulevard Towers
In a spacious Terrace Suite, enjoy your own private terrace with spectacular views of the famous fountain show or desert mountains. One look at the view from your room will have your friends dreaming of Vegas’ vibrant sights and sounds.
