One more to add to the list J Kemp (poker_jason). LGW - Virgin 16-22. Accommodation TBC.

Probably booking Tropicana - Any thoughts on the hotel? or should I head up strip?


I suggest you check Curlage"s post here

http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=7405.300

about half way down!


Thanks for the information - saw reply after reserving Tropicana. Stayed at Ceasars before so looking for something else. Harrahs reviews were mixed. - Reviews look good for Trop and 6 nights for £250 seemed good. Anyone got experience of Trop? Will look out for any great deals in the meantime for Mirage, etc. E
See you in Vegas. Jason


I never looked at the Tropicana but I specifically searched for feedback about whether to stay at Harrahs or Ballys (because they"re both cheap and central) - the overwhelming consensus was to stay at Ballys. So that could be somewhere else to think about if you can get a decent deal.


I"m pretty sure at the Tropicana, drinks are free.  There"s fun and sunshine, which I believe is in plentiful supply for everyone.

One thing I would say though, all that"s missing is the sea, but don"t worry, you can suntan.   ;D

Taxis £100 (includes approx £25 each way transfers airport/hotel/airport)



A cab from the airport to Harrahs should be no more than $20 plus a couple of bucks for a tip.

Alternatively, if you are prepared to wait, there is a shuttle (Bell Transport?) that services most of the strip hotels for, I think $5-$10. It stops off at several places along the way but other than walking...which isn"t an option, it"s as cheap as possible.

On the other hand, if there are boatloads of us coming in together then splitting a cab between 2-4 works out about the same.


For any group of 3-6, especially for any that have never been before, just book a limo for the airport to hotel transfer.

It will cost about $70 for a minimum 1hr hire, enough time for the driver to give you a tour of the strip, before arriving at your hotel in style.

I"m defo up for this. Anyone else from the MCR flight?
