    Have been to Vegas many times. Was there 10 days ago and go back beginning of August.

    Is the quality of the hotel a complete non issue?? Where you flying from? are you prepared to fly non direct it will take about 6-7 hours longer to get there and get back?

    Ok mate.

    Hotels thar our on the Strip the cost less would be;

    Excalibur
    Imperial Palice
    Luxor
    Flamingo
    Harrahs
    Ballys
    Treasure Island
    Tropicana
    New York New York


    They will be better than 90% of the Hotels you stay in England & Europe and there all on the strip.

    If you stay of the strip you might save a few hundred quid but you will spend that on cabs. all of those hotels are quite close to the MGM Grand as well.

    you will need at least $100 a day spending money which is about £55 at the moment.

    well of the strip mate. whatever money you save you will spend getting to the strip. thats not even on the mono rail.

    try one of the hotels i said. i reckon you could get that for less than £850. in the end you will save.

    and you won't get in girls staying off strip.

    i went to the pacman vs mosley fight, we were £655 and that was staying at circus circus. we could have stayed at the other hotels but the guys i was there with were tight as ****.

    this was through expedia and there was lots of combinations of flights and hotels.

    just make sure you sort out the tickets for the fight cause they can be expensive depending where you can source them.

    try www.ticketsmate.com foryour tickets they were reasonable for the pacman fight and they were very helpful, and got back to any queruy i had very quick.

    hope this helps
