Can you suggest alternatives to the golden nugget in Las Vegas?
I've been to Vegas only once just recently and stayed in the Golden Nugget. I loved it there. I need to return for business in January, but the Nugget is out of my budget. I'm looking for something comparable in quality but at a better price. The Fitzgerald was the least expensive I have found online, but after reading reviews, it seems as if the hotel reeks of smoke. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
GN is a 4 Star and you won't find another 4 star in LV for the rate you get the GN. I have seen the rooms at Fitz. DON'T even go there. The 4 Queens has remodeled. Ask for the South tower, The rooms are a bit larger. The Fremont is clean but the rooms are the size of large walk-in closets. Stay away from the Plaza. If you go to the strip the Flamingo sometimes offer good rates. I can't speak for the Excalibur but I know of friends that said the rooms were "nice" but lots of rug rats(kids) running around. That is the issue of Circus Circus. I would not stay at Circus Circus, Sahara, Stratosphere, Imperial Palace or Tropicana. If you can get the newly remodeled room at Riviera it would be o.k. If you can get the North Tower at Bally's that is nice. A small but nice place on the strip is Bill's. On the corner of LV Blvd and Flamingo. Its between Flamingo and Bally's.
The other issue is there are a couple large conventions in town during January. If your going then, nothing will be very cheap. If you played at any casinos when there on previous trips and you used a casino players card try calling them for a player's rate. It may not be comped but you may get a discount.
Book now directly with the casino at a couple places that don't have a non-refundable rate but a good price. Keep checking on line at each for better rates. If the price drops all you do is call them and ask them to reprice your room for the lower rate they are offering. When it gets a few days or week out, cancel all of the rooms you have reserved but the one you decide to stay at.
If you don't mind being off strip try the Orleans, Sam's Town or the remodeled rooms at the Gold Coast.
None of the above mentioned are 4 star but they are in the low to mid 3 star range.
