Las Vegas Holiday !

I’m staying at the Monte Carlo in early May; I booked my hotel a while back, since I heard there was a small fire. I’m wondering if anyone has stayed there after the fire, and if so was there any construction going on? Overall what was your opinion of the Hotel?

to echo what the other person said below me. check out www.yelp.com – it’s "Real reviews by real people" so just check out the recent reviews and see if anything was written about smokey smells and what not..it doesn’t appear so..so I think you should be good.

I wanted to know if the pool in Monte Carlo Las Vegas is open year round ? ( I am planning to stay in Monte Carlo from Jan 3rd till Jan 7th.

No, surprisingly most are closed for about 6 months out of the year (Oct.-March).

how much do they get payed an hour?

How much do they get PAID?

on a holiday weekend IE july 4th???

Worst traffic I ever saw was when the Grateful Dead were in Vegas. Took my friends over 8 hours just to get there from LA. Lucky me, I just happened to fly to Vegas that weekend.

It’s REALLY bad. I-15 crawls from Temecula to Victorville.

Does anyone know if there’s such thing as a tourist dvd I can get before I go. I know Disneyworld, Florida do one. Does anywhere else?

Im a 16 year old guy, about to go on a family holiday to las vegas, i have been 3 times before and really enjoy it each time. However this time im a little older and enjoy playing poker (texas hold’em) with my friends. I was wondering weather there is any place i can play poker without using real money, for fun in las vegas? thanks in advance.

only if you take along the hand held game and stay in your room

Im of on holiday to Las Vegas and im under 18. I hear theres a Curfew for 10pm unaccompanied by an adult. Can i stay out longer if i have an over 18+ with me or does it have to be 21+?

Thanks

Anyone under the age of 18 is prohibited from being on the Strip after 9 pm on weekends and holidays unless accompanied by a parent. Check this site out for more details:

my mother is going to las vegas from the uk on holiday. and asked me what i would like her to bring back for me and the kids- aged 7,5,2. any ideas? not too expensive though!

There are loads of shopping in Las Vegas. MGM and Circus Circus have kids stuff. But there’s plenty of cheap stuff. I bought t shirts, key rings, etc for small gifts for people. Caesars Palace is amazing. Clothes are cheap too. Loved it there. Do tell her to do the helicopter to Grand Canyon. Incredible especially flying down the strip at night.

We are thinking of going to las vegas for a ‘once in a lifetime ‘ holiday any advice on what is worth seeing and things to do that doesn’t cost heaps —- besides gambling and seeing some shows???

First of all I’m jealous! Las Vegas is the best!!

Shopping is actually amazing in las vegas!!! Caesar’s Palace.. as well as the shopping is absolutely beautiful! I would just go there all day to stare at the amazing ceiling and fountains!!! There’s also heaps of outlets about 10 minutes out of the city!
- There’s Madam Tussaud’s which isn’t too expensive. It’s pretty cool! and there’s a haunted house in there too.
- The Bellagio fountains are great to watch. They move to music and go for about 10 minutes every hour!
- There’s a lion habitat you can see for free at the MGM grand
- The Treasure Island hotel has a pirate show out the front every hour I think it is. It goes for about 15 minutes and its pretty cool!
- I know you said that u already know about the shows.. but if you go to a shopping centre about 10 minutes from the strip.. I’ve forgotten its name… it sells leftover tickets every day for shows that night.. and they are quite a decent amount cheaper
- There’s a shark reef at Mandalay Bay hotel
- An amusement complex near Circus Circus casino
- Rollercoaster at New York New York hotel
- The Stratosphere observation tower which looks over Las Vegas

Hope I helped! When you get there you will see lots of free booklets with coupons for cheap deals and fun things to do anyway! I think it’s better going to Vegas not knowing what u want to do. You’ll find something every 2 second that you want to do anyway and you won’t even have enough time to do all of it!!

My family will be in Las Vegas over the Thanksgiving holiday. Where are some of the best places to go for a Thanksgiving dinner?

We’ve spent many Thanksgivings in Las Vegas. While we’ve tried various restaurants, our favorite for Thanksgiving is the Eiffel Tower Restaurant at Paris-Las Vegas. You can find plenty of restaurants offering traditional Turkey Day fare, but if you want a true dining experience, as well as something more memorable and with a gorgeous view of the city, it’s a sure thing.

At the Eiffel, you can experiment with some of the more "non-traditional" Thanksgiving cuisine they offer, but you can also be assured of a delicious "Turkey with all the trimmings" dinner, as well… and it’s to-die-for. (and yummy pumpkin souffle’ or creme brulee finish!)

Wherever you dine this Thanksgiving, Enjoy! … and be sure to book early!
