Making the Right Hotel Selection for You in Las Vegas

Are you planning a trip to Las Vegas in the near future? With all the hotels and casinos in Las Vegas it can be a difficult process in picking the right hotel for you. I am here to help. Whether you are traveling alone on business, a getaway for the two of you, or a family vacation, there are hundreds of options for you to choose from.

The first thing to consider is price. Price is huge in the selection process. With hotels starting from $30 a night to over $1000, I am sure you can find something to fit your budget. Las Vegas is one of the cheapest places that you can go to for vacations. If you want to stay off strip and have a rental car you can stay in Jean which is about 20 miles south of Las Vegas. The hotels out there only run about $30 a night and you are away from all the commotion of the strip. The rooms are big and clean, and you can save a lot of money.

If you are traveling with children and are on a budget, I would stay at either the Excalibur or Circus Circus. The Excalibur offers a great location on the strip and a huge arcade to entertain the children. Circus Circus is at the other end of the strip but it also has Adventuredome. The Adventuredome is a giant enclosed amusement park. Either hotel will put you on the strip where there is a lot of free attractions like the fountains at the Bellagio, that will excite the whole family. Plus if you stay on the strip you do not have to rent a car because everything is right next to each other and you can take a shuttle bus from the airport.

Another thing to consider is your location. If you are not up for a lot of walking you may want to stay downtown where everything isn't so far apart, or if you do want to stay on the strip, maybe pick a hotel that is centrally located. If you are traveling with children and do not want to walk a lot, stay in the middle of the strip. You won't have to walk so far to see all of the free attractions, plus there is a lot more things for the kids to do. There is also Gameworks and M&M World located in the middle of the strip.

Maybe there is a few shows at hotels close by that you would like to see. I would recommend staying at one of those casinos because you will not have to wait for a taxi to that hotel to see the show. Traffic can be so unpredictable in Las Vegas so you have to allow plenty of time. Plus, you will want to get ready for the show in your hotel room and you will not want to feel rushed.

You can go to all of the hotel's websites to see pictures of the and see what food and show options are available. Often if you are staying at the hotel that you want to see a show at, you can get a discount. Make your hotel reservations ahead of time because there are so many conventions that come to Las Vegas that rooms often fill up fast. Do your research and it will all pay off.
