Insider Secret - Thinking of getting a hotel package? By booking early, hotels will often give you a room upgrade for free. Make sure to ask for it. |
Our current hotel occupancy is over 90% and tied for the all-time high record of 1996. Of course there are a lot more casino hotels now, as well as additional towers in existing casinos, but then again a lot more visitors come to Vegas than did 10 years ago. My point is you can expect nearly every weekend to sell out. To get your best Las Vegas hotel deal you will need to book months in advance.
Also check the Las Vegas Convention Center schedule. Big conventions like CES - Consumer Electronics Show attract over 100,000 visitors and make it expensive if not impossible to get a room. If you can't get a room at one of the 30 casinos on the Strip, there are 53 hotels off-Strip ranging in distance from 5 minutes away like the extravagant Rio to the sublime Red Rock 25 minutes west of the Strip.

For one of the best hotel deals downtown and certainly the best value, check out the Golden Nugget Casino in Las Vegas in this picture.
Lots of visitors swear by downtown Vegas, that it's a more authentic, old Vegas experience. For sure downtown is where you will find cheaper if not the best Las Vegas hotel deal and 9 hotels to choose from. The "Golden Nugget" is our favorite choice and preferred by Europeans. But it is by no means the most inexpensive hotel downtown, just the best value.
I see great "Las Vegas vacation packages" from Stratosphere as well as "Planet Hollywood" and even the Venetian. All 3 of these resort casinos are on the Strip. Not only will you find some of the greatest hotel deals in Las Vegas but if you like to golf don't forget Vegas has become a premier golf destination with over 75 courses. Make sure you get a deal on a golf vacation.

Get a best hotel deal on the Strip Las Vegas by staying at the Excalibur and meeting your knight like MyRealVegas reporter Kiki Kalor did in this photo.
Vacation packages from Planet Hollywood, formerly Aladdin Casino include additional amenities such as credits toward their famous Spice Market Buffet, 2-for-1 admission to their Spa, 2-for-1 drinks, over 75 coupons for shopping in the Miracle Mile Mall which is their famous corridor of international shops. If you book your package early make sure to ask for a free room upgrade.
Every hotel and casino in Vegas will offer some kind of discount or low price or promotion package during the year. Vegas wants you to travel there because they know once you are there you will spend money. Probably more money than you even planned to. The average visitor spends over $600 dollars gambling. Plan to be in Vegas Sunday through Thursday to get the best Las Vegas hotel deal.
