View Full Version : Las Vegas
We've booked flights to Las Vegas next February for a week. Now having difficulty deciding which hotel to choose. We stayed at the Luxor for 3 nights in 2001, not been back since.
Does anyone have any recommendations?
I'm a huge fan of The Mirage.

We have stayed in 5 hotels over the years
The Luxor the hotel was great but the rooms not as spacious as we would have liked
The Excalibur was our choice on our first trip couldn't fault it The buffet restaurant was superb, I am guessing could be a little dated now
The Stratosphere Hotel was a beautiful hotel,the rides at the top hotel were really scary
New York New York was ok but was very busy and the noise level was very high.
My favourite without a shadow of a doubt was The Golden Nugget the rooms, service and food were excellent in everyway. but its down town on Fremont Street.
Happy memories [msnwink]

I think you will find that many hotels have differing tastes etc, that is why they seem to be all themed to different things, so everybody will have different experiences.
We have now been twice last October and then before that last November, and have stayed in the Wynn hotel, it is not the cheapest hotel by far, but I was looking for something different and luxurious, just like searching for villas in Orlando, you want the whole package to be right, not just a bed to lay your head. We like the place so much we stayed twice, and that is unusual for us. Trip advisor may be an avenue to go down as they have tons of reports from past guests.

Another vote here for the Venetian! Even if you don't stay there, you must go and check out the canals, gondolas and St Mark's Square inside the hotel :)
I can recommend the steaks at the restaurant (SWs?) downstairs at the Wynn too

Depends what you want when you're there... We normally stay off-strip - Orleans, Gold Coast and want to try Red Rock Casino next time - we had a look round last visit, and the pool area was fabulous...

I love... the luxor...planet hollywod, caesars palace, bellagio, venetian and wynn... the wynn is the bestluxury wise... and luxor feels like home... great offers on hotels if you register with them...also go to fatwallet.com on the vegas hotel promotion thread... it lists all the promos...I also like the Orleans off strip with its free shuttle and buffets etc thrown in... great for if you have kids also.. and go to the rio... voodoo lounge and watch the sunset over the mountains and the lights come on on the strip... brilliant!!!!! going in August... think the Wynn is going to get the vote this time... but the luxor has a terrific deal going on.... aaaargh decisions, decisions...
