Has anyone stayed at the Vdara before? Figured the Wynn was going to cost me near £200 a night after fee. The venetian and Bellagio aren't far off. I managed to pick up the Vdara for £104 a night plus fees including 2 weekends, which wasn't much more than the Rio and palms place. I did read the reviews and pretty much every recent one for the Rio is stinking, the ones for the Vdara are pretty much all glowing? It looks like a Taxi to the Rio should be pretty quick and the aria is next door. Plus from what I read the whole property seems to be smoke free.
So why is it so much cheaper than the rest?
Amazing. Loved the place. Basic room was excellent, all suites IIRC.
Generally cheaper because it has no casino and is set behind ARIA/Cosmo, so you have to walk through them to get to the Strip. There's an easy walkway through to Bellagio as well.
Cheers Andrew, don't mind the shade so much - it may be a welcome break in the heat of the middle of August.
Was it a nice enough hotel?
Spent a night at MC last time I went out non-WSOP. It was nice, rooms were good, but it was a bit boring.
Would stay there over MGM though for walking distances to rooms alone, plus the tram to ARIA should you want to get more action!
