    Sending a big massive thank you to everyone who has taken the time and trouble to find these deals and links for me, I'm leaning towards the Cosmopolitan as it looks young and trendy which I think the girls will love :)

    Both plus resort fee

    MGM would be another $120 plus tax

    Yes I didn't add that, thought that could be seen if the booking was actually tried. Still cheaper than $600...

    Around $540 for 3 nights and 2 rooms at the MGM, or under $500 at NYNY

    The Great Declutter Challenge - £876 :)

    You can get Cosmopolitan for those dates for 452GBP for 2 x city view rooms via Virgin, works out a little over $600 but is central and a very nice hotel.


    How did you find that price?
    I used to check Virgins hotel only prices but havent done so in ages as they stopped being competitive.

    That looks pretty good for 2 rooms though but I can only get a price for the Cosmo with flights, it disappears as soon as I choose hotel only

    It is young and trendy, dont know what your 20 year old would find to do inside the Cosmo though.

    The terrace rooms there are great, especially if you get a fountain view. I didnt include top class hotels in my initial post as I didnt think they would come in within budget, but it appears the city view rooms will, just

    The city rooms there dont have balconys/terraces

    have you looked at finding the lowest pricest possible through expedia or a similar company and then see if its more expensive through marriott.

    marriott offer a 'look no further' guarantee, if you book through marriott and find a price cheaper elsewhere they will match it PLUS give you 25% off the price you find elsewhere.

    i've got a good deal at the cosmo thanks to the 'stay 4 nights pay for 3' promo and combining that with marriotts look no further guarantee! :T

    Hi All, would really appreciated some experienced Vegas advice!

    My Partner & I are off to Vegas on 6th April (she will be 5 months pregnant at this point - Gulp), so i guess this is our last trip for a while! We will be there for 6 nights, meeting some friends, then heading off to San Fran via Yosemite.

    We are really confused about what the best hotel to stay in would be, in terms of location, facilities, cost etc.

    We are happy to splash out on a suite but the question is where?

    We have been looking at the Bellagio, but I have concerns that due to its age it will be really tired, but i think its well located were we to walk anywhere.

    The Cosmopolitan looks exciting but i keep hearing rumours that the house keeping is horrific so any experience of this place would be greatly received.

    The Wynn, looks like it could be the one, but it seems a long way down the strip and i don't seem to be able to find any deals on the place.

    The advice i have read in the Forum so far has been great but would really appreciate anyones help on this accommodation conundrum!

    thanks

    I would recommend the Wynn. I've not stayed at the Bellagio or Cosmo (yet) but I loved The Wynn.
