Holiday Reviews for Las Vegas
"My Viva Las Vegas Holiday"
Weather : This was our second trip to Las Vegas, in November, the weather was beautiful, we choose to get married out here and the day we did it was 86 !!! Gorgeous.
We also went in 2005 in January and packed jumpers, these were not needed it was still in the high 70's !! Fantastic.
Holiday : Las Vegas has to be a must on everyone's holiday destinations, it's top of our list, my husband and I are returning again this year, it will be my third time and his tenth!! There is literally no place like it on earth, it's AMAZING, so much to see and do, you would never get bored, it really is the city that NEVER sleeps.
Places Recommended : We went Quad biking in the Calafornia dessert, and mainly stayed on the strip.
We watched the Crazy Horse show at the MGM that was great, a real old burlesque show.
Treaasure Island put on a fantastic show.
The Paris's own Eiffel Tower is amazing and has fantastic views if you visit the top.
The Stratosphere tower is a must, crazy rides and a rotating restaurant.
Everything in Las Vegas is a place to visit !

"My holiday in Las Vegas"
Weather : I've been to Vegas twice before in September 2000 and October 2003 and both times the weather was hot and great, I've just booked up again this year end of April / start of May and I'm confident the weather will be just as good!!
Holiday : My holiday both times were fantastic, I stayed at the Excalibur first time, which was nice and cheap, but still better than what you could ever imagine and the second time I stayed at the New York New York which was even better.
Personally any Hotel on the strip is brilliant to stay at from The Excalibur up to The Imperial, The Luxor and The Mandalay Bay are great hotels too, but right at the end of the strip so for me too far away, but for others who stay there don't worry you have the monorail which operates for free!!!
Places Recommended : Where do I start??
Grand Canyon by helicopter, Ceasars Palace, Venetian, Stratesphere, Fremont St and if you like rides the New York New York roller coster was originally and probably still my favourite!
Recommend Las Vegas to others : Yes

"las vegas holiday"
Weather : I am from the UK and have now been to Vegas 3 times, March 2008, March 2007 and May 2006. The weather in March is lovely and very hot in May.
Holiday : I think Vegas is one of the best places on earth. It is far removed from our normal beach holidays but absolutely wonderful. There is so much to see and do that there is never enough time to do it. I have told so many people about it that quite a number of them have been. They have come home saying that I did not exaggerate at all, even though they did think I was exaggerating when I told them how wonderful it is.
American people are so friendly and helpful to strangers it is a pleasure to be amongst them.
I have stayed at the Stratosphere and the Imperial Palace both of which are great. I also had a lovely week at the Best Western Mardi Gras but it is quite a walk from the Strip, so we did have to spend a lot on taxis, but I would still go back there.

"Las Vegas a place for all"
Weather : Weather 104-119
You need plenty of sunscreen, Even if cloudy the sun gets you. We went in April and it was hot. Even hotter in the summer months
Holiday : We stayed in a house 10 miles from the strip. Pool, hot tub you name it it had it.
You could get up have your own breakfast relax in the pool, go to the shops and have the nightlife as well. Your time was your own. House slept 6 but could do more (8) and only $900 for the week. So a bargain. Car hire was only £75 for the week unlimited mileage. Have done hotels as well but prefer the house.

Places Recommended : Grand Canyon is a must. Make the most of your visit, as you will always want to go back. Go to all the hotels they all have something different. My favourite is the Bellagio, with the dancing fountains and the Chihuly Glass ceiling. Fantastic. See a show but you can always watch the free ones in all the hotels.

"Vegas"
Weather : Very hot- temperature between 108-110 degrees.
Take plenty of sunscreen.
Everyday there were cloudless skies and red hot sun.
Holiday : We stayed in Vegas for 3 days.
the superior hotels are just amazing to wander around and to eat in the buffet retaurants.
Our particular hotel was poor and dated so avoid the Imperial Palace unless you like smokey rooms, a small pool with no shade and dreadful food!
Places Recommended : Don't miss the Grand Canyon we did a helicopter tour which landed in the canyon where we had a champagne picnic.
If you can go and see a show too - we saw Mama Mia at the Mandalay Bay hotel.
A trip up to the top of the Stratesphere is also good for a great view over Vegas and to see the rides! Be prepared to pay for the privilige though.
Vegas is noisy, glitsy and expensive but would not have missed it.
Recommend Las Vegas to others : Yes
