The MGM Grand is also a little further up the strip than Excalibur etc. The price is tolerable as well.

As for switching hotels nightly? I don't know why you would want to pack up and move every day, why not just keep it at one place and we can all park together?

Let me know what everyone else thinks?

Thanks. Ill get mine booked then.

The reason I said move around is I'm looking at that post first night 62$ second and third 116$ so is it 62 per night or the price varies if it varies then move around? Or am I misunderstanding something please correct me thank you

Well all of the rates will go up across the board for the weekend. It is not that it goes up because you are staying multiple nights, its that nights 2-3 are weekend nights (Fri/ Sat). So no matter what, the price will increase for those nights regardless of the hotel.

Yeah the prices go up because the weekend rates are higher. This info is off my employee workstation so it doesn't show average nightly rates like most commercial websites. Moving around would be a big pain in the ass. You would spend more time checking in and out of hotels and miss out on the activities.

But what other fees are there going to be. I found this in the description for the MGM. An extra $25 per night not included in the daily rate.

ok sorry I calculated an extra night on accident, so the rate right now for MGM and NYNY has a difference between 5$ from what is shown above, if you share your room 4 people including yourself the night at MGM comes to 45$ each and for NYNY 40$ each. Just in cased I missed it, did we choose MGM ? did we vote on it something? anyways this be the month to book so find your roomates and confirm with eachother because rates will probably jump in may for flight. Right now for me since it's one way flight because on my return I'll be coming from California. Is about 150$ thats not bad at all. I can do this entire trip in 500$

Once we hear back on the additional fees we can decide. If there is in fact a $25 fee for "Resort Amenities" then lets just book at NYNY. Otherwise, MGM is a little bit of a nicer place and a great location. Plus TONS of parking with easy access.

Ah ok cool, I've been to Vegas but it was almost ten years ago and I stay at circus circus it wasn't that nice, I'll trust my Club members to choose a good place.

All the major casino's have the 25$ resort fee per night... If it was my money, I'd stay at the MGM.. I avoid NYNY like a disease ... It's like a black hole for my money lol.. I lose at NYNY every single time

Yeah I know the feeling but I go to Vegas several times a year for work so if I stopped staying at casinos that took my money I'd be sleeping in my car lol. The rooms at nyny are clean and there are some nice affordable restaurants inside I just wouldn't gamble there.

I only play roulette. Much more social and I like the odds. They say craps has the best odds though.

Ok so MGM? Plus then we can watch the lions
