Las Vegas can rightfully boast of a number of high-class hotels, but those on the famous Las Vegas Strip are the most well known among them. Among the most popular are The Bellagio, The Luxor, The Venetian, Caesars Palace, New York New York and Treasure Island. The Westin and Hilton hotels are also located in this area.
As the hotels on the Strip mainly cater to the wealthy, it is difficult to find discount hotels in this locality. During off-seasons (usually December and January), however, many Strip hotels offer lower rates and discount deals. Some of the other most popular hotels in the city are Monte Carlo Resort and Casino, Excalibur Hotel and Casino, Stratosphere Casino Hotel and Tower, MGM Grand Hotel and Casino, Circus Circus Hotel and Casino, Tropicana Resort and Casino, Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. It is wise to avoid weekends while staying at a hotel unless you want to burn a deep hole in your pocket or like to melt yourself in a wild party crowd.
For the not-so-rich, Las Vegas has a host of cheap hotels to offer. Some of them are Riviera, Villager-Flami, Orleans, Cancun Resort, La Quinta Las Vegas Convention Center, Sahara Hotel and Casino, Desert Paradise Resort, Hawthorn Suites, Boulder Station Hotel and Casino, Hampton Inn, Hampton Inn Nellis AFB, Royal Hotel and Casino, Golden Gate Hotel and Casino.
