Best party hotel

[shaz1410]

Thanks for the tips guys, so I think we will split the ten nights into two hotels, first 5 nights mgm signature and then im thinking a hotel on the strip, encore/wynn seem quite reasonabaly priced and from what you guys are saying its one of the more happening places to stay on the strip? Anyone one know of any promo codes that will be valid for an october stay

I always tend to stay off strip since I drive and want to avoid the heavy jams getting in and out of the hotels. My favorite spots are HRH, MGM Sigs and Hilton in that order. No to mention cab fees generally are cheaper with the backstreets of the strip.

There are some strip hotels that also offer that convenience by having the cabs go in and out through the side streets. PH comes to mind, always had an easy time cabbing to places because it's a corner hotel and takes you right out to that street Hard Rock is on with easy access to all the other backstreets.

Just a short question: I know that alcohol is allowed on the strip, hows the situation when I want walk from Hard rock to the strip, is it allowed to drink some beers on the way?

Uh, walking from the HRH to the strip?!!!?! NOT a good idea. It's waaaay farther than you think. Cab rides to the strip are actually cheaper/faster from the HRH because they take the back streets, you never have to sit in strip traffic.

OH ok, on the map it just look walkable . First trip to vegas... But thanks for the input, will take a cab.

It's very deciving when you look at a map vs when you're actually there. You'll be much happier taking a cab.

the scale of the hotels really throws off the distance. since you can see the hotels they appear just down the road, but after walking for 15 minutes, they get no closer.

when things are crowded and can't walk at a good pace, wait to cross some streets it takes even longer.

Back to the original question, I'd avoid the suites and move to the strip or the Palms. PH is a good option, flamingo is another decent option for location. Although I would agree that if you are going to be there for 10 days, to split things up. Maybe weekend in one spot, move midweek to location 2 to get a change of pace.
