Thanks for all your replies. I'm 24 so maybe that's why Adam Ant is unknown to me
I stayed in a celeb spa suite at MGM last time & it was huge but like some have said it was tired.
I might book MGM just in case nothing better comes along.
I'm not really a fan of downtown - would visit it during the at but not keen on staying down there.
We won't be hiring a car & would prefer to be in the thick of it, so I think it has to be mid strip hotels for us.
Thanks for all your opinions. I appreciate them.
Any idea who the fight is in september?
Thanks :beer:

WBC light middleweight title - unconfirmed fighters yet, depending on results in the meantime I think, quite possibly Saul Alvarez though

Aren't those the rooms they just renovated recently? probably since your visit.

Theres a whole new site devoted to what the MGM refurb will be doing.

I'm looking for some advice from you lovely lot
Our hotel budget for our honeymoon is £1000. We have 10 nights in Vegas 6th to 16th September.
Happy to split the trip over 2 or 3 hotels or stay in same one the whole trip. Had a look at prices but it's at least £1300 for strip hotels. I have looked at MGM, NY NY, Paris, PH etc
I didn't fancy any of the older (decor wise) hotels like IP, Flamingo, Ballys etc but perhaps some of you could make some suggestions? Or am I expecting too much for our budget?
Thanks in advance x

Try splitting your trip into 5 night stays. A quick look on LowCostUsa and you could get your first 5 nights in NYNY, Treasure Island or Paris for around £400.
Also Virgin Holidays - last 5 nights at Venetian or Palazzo for £632, or Cosmopolitan for £641.

thanks so much for this.
our hotels of choice would be Paris & Cosmo but I didnt think we would be able to get them within our budget. My only concern was Paris luxury room looks a bit dated but I could justify the extra £200 for a red room. Also just checked the t&c for cancellation etc & found it charges:
2. Accommodation cancellation policy, unless otherwise stated on your booking confirmation:
Greater than 7 days prior to departure: £30 (40 €) per person plus any credit card fees
absorbed by https://www.lowcostUSA.co.uk at time of booking (normally 2%). 7 - 0 days prior to departure: 100%

I will mull it over but these are defo my hotels of choice!! Thanks so much Gill :-)
