Encore at Wynn or Cosmopolitan for a Bachelor Party for 5?

[pabloporres]

We are planning on celebrating my bachelor party in Las Vegas at the end of March, we are 5 guys. We decided that we wanted to go to the Cosmopolitan because it is the newest hotel, but now we are undecided because Cosmo has small rooms and we are planning to reserve 2 rooms with two queen beds, so we saw the Encore rooms and they are way more spacious and same quality. I guess we can go to XS, Tryst or Surrender, or Encore beach, so there´s plenty to see at the Wynn. WE are planning to go 4 nights in a row to Nightclubs and 1 or 2 days to Day clubs. Which of both hotel would you recommend for this trip? In which hotel would we have a better bachelor party experience? I know the experience we create it but hotels should help also. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi mate

Here's an earlier thread I found with the same question and here's another one which might be helpful to read through.

I recently looked into this myself for my best friend's bachelor party over LDW 2013. I stayed at the Encore in 2011 (Tower Suites) and enjoyed my stay there. But I wanted to try the Cosmo this year (a room with a terrace).

I think you can't go wrong with either choice. You'll hardly be in your room anyway, right? You'll either be at a dayclub/nightclub or wandering the Strip.

Ultimately for me, it came down to price and the Encore Tower Suites offered better value. What's your budget?

At the Cosmo, you can get a double queen "City Room" or "Terrace Studio" (it doesn't say they have double queen configurations for terrace studios on the site, but call them up, they have a limited number). The Terrace Suite comes with a queen bed, a big couch and you can get a rollaway for $30 extra a night.

For bachelor parties, sometimes people book 1 decent room, and then just basic rooms for the rest. Everyone just meets up in the big room to party. So maybe you could get a Terrace Suite with a rollaway (2 people sleep there, or 3 if someone wants the couch), and then just book a double queen city room (2-4 people) - you'll either be at a dayclub/nightclub or hanging with the other guys in the suite - so you'll only use the city room to sleep.

But if you're only after basic rooms in each one, then I think the Encore "Resort Suite Double Queen" is better than the Cosmo "City Room". Also, the Encore Tower Suites (separate check-in, 4 free clothes presses a day, other little benefits) are sometimes just a little more than the resort suites after you factor in the $25 per room/day resort fee which you have to pay on the resort suite and not the tower suites - so keep that in mind. Try and see if the code 35OFFER at Encore works for the dates you're after too.

I was quoted a decent rate last month from cosmo and i think there are agents on here who can well beat it.. But you could geta cosmo wraparound with an adjacent terrace suite with a connecting door. This is silly but i saw a youtube video where a group of guys did something similar. Since its only 5 guys sounds like a comfy option and then you'd be all together but at least sleeping with lots of room.
