Post a CommentI love Vegas and I love the Venetian! Beautiful place....nicely done!
Your strategies are great for any vacation.
I agree the Bellagio is on the pricey side, but since they have so many free attractions on site it cuts the costs a bit. I have always had good experiences from Comfort Suites. Plus, you really can get such a good deal at many hotels in the area by using the information in my above article. I hope that helps, and I hope you have a great trip.
The Bellagio is really expensive tho. What cheaper places have you been to that you would recommend? I'm looking for first-hand experience.
There are so many great places to stay in Las Vegas. I think it really depends what you are looking for out of your experience there. I am not the sort of person who usually goes on vacation without my kids so I would tend to want to go to places like the Bellagio where I know there is lots to do and see.
What are your favorite places to stay at in LV?
