Okarn and I have stayed at the Monte Carlo before for a spring break trip. It was pretty nice and fairly close to centered on the strip.
We were there right before Paris opened.
Cowz and I will have to see if we can afford it as well. We've been talking about hitting Vegas, but money talks louder than I do.

You guys will be supprised how affordable it is to stay on Fremont Street. I think i paid like 80 a night (might could do better with a group rate), its a lot of fun down there.
Its old school vegas, Golden Nugget, Benions (where they do the world series of poker),Glitter Gultch etc.. Hell the even have a 2 story Dave and Busters. You can buy beer on the street and its only about a 5 min cab ride to the big strip. The big name hotels are a lot more swanky, but if your budget minded, its worth checking into.
Just and idea.

That and the Golden Nugget has some of the best mac and cheese of all time in the buffet. I mean, if you had one little shred of cheese you would legally have to change the name of the dish to cheese and mac. I'd love to go to vegas again. And yeah fremont street does have some fun places (best place to get drunk). I've stayed at the flamingo and the tropicana. Flamingo is fun but a little pricy, but AWESOME breakfast buffet. Tropicana is for old people, don't do it its a trap. But I'll stay anywhere, preferably places with a good roulette(sp?) table  |

I don't know if I could swing this or not, I will have to see.
As for a place to stay check out the Westin, its two blocks off the strip and a little quiter and cheaper than the main strip hotels. The beds rock though and your only two blocks from hitting the Flamingo and the strip.

About how much would we be talking for this type of venture?
Here's some rough estimates: Plane: $190+ on Frontier (This varies A LOT depending on where you're flying from, when you're flying, etc.) Hotel: I've stayed in places on the strip from $120/night (Luxor) to $250/night (Ceasars). You can stay a lot cheaper off the strip. Meals: Buffets on the strip range from 10 bucks/person for breakfast; 15 bucks/person for lunch to 30/person for dinner. You can eat anywhere in your budget, really. Drinks: Free if you're gambling Gambling: Depends on what you play -- and where. If you plan to gamble A LOT, then I'd take $200-$500 bucks a day. |
