I'm looking at booking for 16nights in June,was just wondering if anyone can recommend any cheap/decent hotels within 10min walk or so of the venetain as plan to play the deepstack tourneys there mostly.Thanks
Bill's Gambling Hall is the best of the budget hotels in that area by far, the rooms are actually fairly decent, they can be a bit noisy if your not much of a night owl but if your gonna go to bed in vegas before 1am don't bother going IMO. Also its only a 3 min walk from room to street rather than a prolonged trek through the casino to get to the street like most casinos. They also have a comedy Elvis show for free and do great hotdogs right by the gaming floor mmm........ The rates do vary wildly depending on what convention is town, but can be very cheap. Its opposite Caesars and less than 10 mins to Venetian. The next step up in price and quality if you can afford would be the Flamingo.
Cheers much appreciated
And I lol'd hard at being a bed before 1 in Vegas
What dates you goin Monda? I think theres 5 of us going 17th to the 26th or something. Got any details on the Venetian comps? Need a translator?

Not great to be honest, if you do stay there don't stay in the cheapest rooms, stay in the next grade up, think its deluxe or something like that. The rooms are really tired and just generally a bit shabby. Great location though.

Yep but long way from venetian, you'll use taxis so won't save. If you give me your top five choices I can tell you what I think is best.

Meh if your not arsed about the room just go for IP then. I've stayed there a couple of times, it was just about acceptable but I doubt I'd stay there again. A word of advice if you are planning on playing any table games there, get a players card and make sure you play them all in Harrah's properties. Next time you go out there you will be able to get money off the rooms based on that. I can basically go and stay at the IP for close to free whenever I go, or get a nice chunk of the other properties.
LOL I doubt you plan on playing table games but you will end up doing it at some point drunk so just get a card.

Well not if its sold out LOL. They may have it available on certain days and you can change room at some point. I'd call them up, that's how I normally do it. Don't forget there is tax on top of that price 7% I think?
