Hi guys, when you stay B&B in the casinos, what usually constitutes breakfast if you get it included? Cheers

Hotels don't usually do B+B, not that Ive ever seen anyway. Nearly all hotels have buffets, where you can eat as much as much as you can handle for next to nothing. Excalibur is my personal favourite, they do the best cheesy omlettes on the strip!

Excalibur is coming out at $305 and Tropicana at $349 for our second week

Have a long think about Tropicana they are yunder chapter 11 protecion at the mo and thay are only spending what they absouloutly have to which has led to a detiriation in services.

For November, Id leave it until say September before booking - thats when the real deals started last year. Even now, theres Palazzo deals for Jan for $119 weekday/$169 weekend, which include $25 slot credit, $30 food credit, Phantom discount, Spa discount......thats about £640, but if you eat there and cash out the slot credit on roulette, it comes down to about £500.....for a suite.....in a five star hotel......with slippers and a robe......and your not stuck at the end of the strip in an area you avoid eye contact with people walking past you in the street. Location location location.

Do you have a link to that deal please Froggitt ?

No B&B in Vegas, I often go to Terribles buffet, always loads of 2 for 1 vouchers for there, meaning 2 breakfasts for about $5

Have you checked all the links on post 1 of this thread?

fatwallet is a good place to start

The Fremont street experience

Bellagio to Mandalay Bay is about a half hour walk. However, you can save some shoe leather by taking the free monorail from Excalibur to Mandalay Bay.....trap 2 I think is the one you want.

Photome is correct...........fatwallet is your friend. Presumably this is the one that expired, but it looks still available for booking....see below.

PS For those people booked at Venetian with the $50 a day food credit (not written up trip report yet but you need to know), they give you more than the $50. We werent charged for a $52 bill, nor on a $61 bill or a $63 bill, and an evening meal and a breakfast for two (maybe $90) was only billed at about $20.

I think it works on an actual day basis, ie you get on the first day, but not on the checkout day.

Thanks for that....I knew they were due a refurbishment but didn't realise the service would be compromised
Should they not be offering really cheap rates if that is the case??
