The Stratosphere is connected to the monorail isn't it?

Not even close. Firstly it's on the western side of the strip and the monorail is on the other side.

The Sahara is, as someone said, is the closest you will get but it's a decent trek not only to the Sahara but then through the casino to the monorail station.

As I've mentioned, the Strat is OK for what it is but there are a lot of factors that weigh against it for location & access to other casinos/attractions.

Basically, if you are mobile (car or willing to travel by bus) then it's a nice option price-wise. If you have to add on cabs (or even the monorail which ain't cheap any more) then other locations make more sense.

Ralph and I used the Deuce shuttle bus, $5 for all day. Uber efficient, more frequent than taxis, and loads of fun.

I think it's now $7 all day..still cheaper than the monorail.

It's fine for actually getting there but there are issue...it takes AGES to get up the strip. An hour isn't unusual from Strat to MGM.

It's certainly NOT more frequent than taxis...how could it be..but chop a cab 2/3 ways and they are defo cheaper.

Oh...and even when one does come along (every 10 minutes or so), it's usually full.

Finally, late at night...it's a real adventure...picture a Night Bus from Central London and you have the picture.

Came back from Vegas three weeks ago and stayed at PH. Good location however the best comps are the Venetian and Caesars which is more central strip. Here's a few pics to wet your whistle.


This every night at PH from 8pm for a start.
