8 Tips on Finding a Good Vegas Hotel

A trip to Las Vegas should be fun and the most important thing about fun is that to have it you must put aside your worries. Picking the wrong hotel can be a disaster for your vacation,

maybe you are not close to the attractions, or maybe you are too close to the attractions.

Here I have listed the top 8 tips to guarantee that you pick the hotel that best suites your needs and ensures your family a great Las Vegas experience.

1) Location, Location, Location, where the hotel is located can make a huge impact on the vacation you have. If you pick a hotel at one end of the strip but everything you want to do is on the other you will have to do a lot of walking or pay for taxis. This can cause you to get to less of the things you wanted to see, so try to pick a hotel near the casino or attractions you plan to visit. Another important thing is that the hotels on the strip are much more expensive then the ones only a block or two away, and by using a smaller less glitzy hotel you can save hundreds of dollars.

2) Make sure the Hotel meets all your personal needs. The fancy hotels sure do look nice, but it is more important that the Las Vegas hotel you choose has the things you need to help make you more comfortable, for example if you have kids you may want to go to a hotel that offers daycare for young children or other types of activities for older kids. Maybe you are coming or renting a car and you need a hotel that offers free parking

3) Look for Deals. Even the finest hotels on the Las Vegas strip will sometimes offer discount rates on rooms to lure people in. you should always check with the hotels to see what specials they may be offering in the time that you will be on your vacation.

4) Comp Offers. Ask the hotel how many comps they will offer you to play in their casinos. Sometimes they will offer you a free night or 2 and some meals for free just to get you into their casinos.

5) Do not just go to the Hotel and Casinos web site and look at the pictures. Every casino and hotel has been reviewed at least once by someone, and many of these reviews can be read at an online casino guide web site. Besides the official reviewers word, you can also get reviews by people who actually spent their vacations in those hotels and you can read about their fun times or their horror stories.

6) Those of you who can rip yourselves away from the gaming tables in the casino may be interested to know that outside of the city, there is a beautiful desert with picturesque mountain scenery, and it is very close and easy to reach. So if you are interested in doing some hiking and getting out into nature you may want to look for a hotel that offers trips or tours in the desert.

7) Las Vegas is a growing city and has thousands of visitors every day so if you are not into crowded amusement parks or other crowded attractions you may want to avoid things on or around the strip and look for something further from the beaten path.

8) If you are not going to Las Vegas just to do some gambling, you may want to stay at one of the smaller less expensive hotels, most are less then a 5 minute drive to the casinos and the casinos offer free parking if you are going into the casino.

These are just a few things to keep in mind when traveling to Las Vegas. If you are traveling with the family, you will want to remember that Las Vegas and Nevada offer excellent hotels and casinos as well as some of the most undisturbed wildlife and nature reserves and fantastic camping in the area.
