Where to Stay, Play and Eat in Vegas

[Debi]

thank you, this information is good to know. I'll be in Vegas for the series in June, anyone want to meet up for a drink?

A lot of us will be there - what are your dates?

I think Debi would be the best source of advice on this, but I think the answer is - look into renting a house. There are several advantages to renting, not the least is that it is probably cheaper than 20+ days at $100/day average, and you get a lot of room to relax and cook your own meals. It also lets you "get away" from the chaos of the gambling districts.

Also, I'm not certain you can stay in one hotel in Nevada for more than 10 consecutive days... it has to do with "residency". I'm not sure... but I had relatives that would come out for the winter and have to change hotels every two weeks. Your mileage may vary.

The other option is do the RV thing and park it... but that may be even more expensive than the first two options.

thanks for the info
yes, compared with bad and good, think it is no worse to stay in hotel.
the only thing good with short rent , I think is self drive.

ask a question

One of my friend who is retired ... he wants to know if stay in LV for like 20 days during the WSOP season...

which one looks better, stay in hotel or renting a house?
he lives in LA area, think ... travel back and forth through his own car is not a big problem for him, if any home emergency or whatever.

many thanks.

Definitely tell him to look into renting a house - might have to rent for a 30 day minimum but it would probably still be cheaper.

The Stratosphere or MGM Grand great comfort and room service!!!

all this clarification regarding hotels and restaurants in Vegas are of paramount importance to me that dream in a very near future (so is good enough and a thick roll) will be making this dream ... today and every following day I will play with a solid purpose to go to vegas .... I believe that even this reflection already makes me a little better ... thanks

No - I only have time to go play a few times a year. Quite a few members will be in Vegas this summer.

It is worth noting that so far in my experience during the wsop the Bellagio has some of the worst games at the $5 blind level. Tons of tables but incredibly reg-heavy. I have not played lower than 2/5 there though so I cannot speak for those games.

I would like to have a base as will spend on average if you want to go to Las Vegas next year

 

[KyeRorrley]

Without doubt it has to be the Aria, great hotel, great poker, great environment. Been there a few times and flying to vegas for a stag in 2 months, I'll be sure to pass by there

Vdara hotel is a beautiful and luxury place. I recommend this place for a dream trip or journey

 

[JayBonez]

Ill keep this all in mind when i finally make it there. When i was 20 i went by vegas because i couldnt gamble how fun it would be. I need to make another venture across the country.

Aria is the best place to play, IMHO.

Good Eats

I live in Las Vegas so I don't stay at any hotels. I wanted to give an opinion about a good place to eat. One of my favorite places is Rolling Smoke BBQ. I had their meatloaf the other day and it was pretty amazing. It does have a bit of spice to it, but I think that is what I liked about it. The people are pretty cool also. So if you love BBQ and are in Vegas give them a try.

When I went to Vegas I stayed at the Wynn , beautiful place. But Whe. I played poker I walked to the bellagio or Caesars . I wish the aria was finished when I went out there or I would have stopped there

Where is it?

maybe a bit of a silly question here, but this is aimed at those of you who have stayed at several hotels in vegas. I come from a country where it rains most of the time, and never goes above 25C in the summer. Even that is too hot for me, and i often concider removing all the food from the freezer so i can climb in when the temperature goes above 16C. As i am seriously concidering a trip to vegas to play some poker , what would you say is the average temperature in the poker rooms in most hotels?

I dont mind if it doesn't rain all the time, i can always set off the fire sprinklers if i get desperate.

I don't get cold very often, but most people in the poker rooms wear jackets because it is too cold for them. Also no humidity so even though its very hot outside you don't "feel" it like you do in humid climates. I just got back from a trip there and 85F with 89% humidity is far more miserable than 105F there.
