Casino Guide Book

I have no experience booking trips so I could use some help. I’m trying to keep it as cheap as possible, but I don’t want to stay in TOO seedy of a hotel- it’s not the biggest deal tho b/c I’ll just be sleeping there. I want to stay from 2/19 – 2/23, which I know is really last minute but I want to make it work. Does anyone know a cheaper hotel near Harrahs casino? Or cheap flights out of Newark or Laguardia?
I can use all the help I can get, thanks in advance!
wow, rally helpful answers, thanks so much everyone!

Hi,

Next month I’m going to Vegas and booked a deluxe room at the Sahara. I like a room with a nice view and I was wondering: should I ask for a view of the Strip? Of the pool? etc. Maybe both? I’d like to avoid seeing too much construction site, parking lots or rooftops. Does anyone who stayed there before know what view/floor/tower I should ask for? (I undestand the Tangiers tower is the newest)
Thank you!
Question for “ME”:
Does the room with a balcony overlooking the Strip have a view of the pool as well? Is it in the Tangiers tower? Thanks!

Has anyone been to the palace station casino in vegas recently? How was your experience there? How do I book one of those newly renovated rooms instead of one of the old ones? How was the pool at that hotel? It is cheap to book right now that is why I am asking. Thanks everyone!!

I’m trying to find a penthouse in a casino in las vegas (preferably on the strip) that has three bedrooms and can house up to 15 people. I’m looking to book this thing 2.5 months in advance (for the summer). My budget is around $500-$600 for 4 nights. This is for me and my gf’s birthday. It’s extravagant for a reason.

Does anyone know where I can get info for this easily, or any direct information? Thanks a lot!

This info came from a factoid book but dosnt state why…

I am taking him to Vegas. He knows that i am taking him away somewhere he just doesnt know where. Now, I want the best hotel in your opinion that is the most for your money. Somewhere fun and has great casinos/food, etc. Money isnt really a big deal, i want him to have the best time he’s ever had. He has cancer and has had nothing but treatment and treatment and hell for the last 3 years, he means the world to me so i want him to have an awesome time and just forget about all the other **** going on.

I was thinking of maybe booking a room somewhere that has good entertainment also.

Thanks for your help!

and alittle bit about him, hes 24, and hes not picky, but he can eat whatever he wants and he’s really into great restaraunts. . .. Thanks again !

I am planning a trip to Las Vegas. From what I found online, looks like American Casino Guide and/or Pocketbook of Value are almost essential for my trip. I am actually more interested in the matchplay coupons. Can those matchplay coupons be found elsewhere? For example, Like the fun books from the casinos when you join a membership, or travel centers?

We’re booking a trip to Vegas in late May and for the price the Sahara sounds pretty great and the pool there looks nice too. Some reviews mention that it’s far away from everything else on the strip but it appears to me to be pretty close on a map. Is it inconvenient to walk to the other casinos from the Sahara? It’s for a weekend of partying/relaxing for 3 adults.
