The Palms Las Vegas

Ghostbar, The Mint, Rain and Tonic. Four vague phrases that mean tons of fun.

The Palms is the perfect place to act like a local in Las Vegas. This barely off strip casino and hotel (see map) is a favorite of Las Vegas residents and is the place to see and be seen in Sin City. Hard Rock Hotel may have the hype and CityCenter the clout, but the Palms is a longtime go to hotel.

It is home to one of the best concert venues in town (The Pearl), the most convenient sports book (close parking) and a main thoroughfare  that is as much social gathering as gaming floor. Taxis, cheap rooms and its cross street neighbor the RIO make it's off Strip location bearable.

Other Recommended Las Vegas Hotels

Monte Carlo

Monte Carlo's close proximity to CityCenter, New York New York and the MGM Grand make it arguably the best located bargain hotel on the Strip. With prices generally starting at under $50 and free amenities like WiFi, iPhone docks and flat screens, you'll feel regal even though you'll pay bargain basement.

The Flamingo: For those fascinated with the Mob History of Las Vegas and who want a sweet deal on top of it, The Flamingo is the place to stay. While Bugsy is long gone, Jimmy (as in Buffett) has helped the Flamingo retain its appeal. Sure the rooms aren't all that modern, but they are clean and convenient. Isn't that all you really need?

MGM Grand

The MGM Grand is the largest hotel in Las Vegas and second in the world to only the Izmailovo Hotel in Moscow (thanks Wikipedia). It is massive, green, has some huge lions and is the home to the MGM Grand Garden Arena where the biggest musical acts and boxing matches take place. MORE INFO
