Huge hotel. Pros: Lion Habitat (2 female lions, gorgeous exhibit – the lions walk over you as you stand in an enclosed glass walkway), great poker room (see other entry), fantastic lazy river and pool area (see other entry).
Cons: need to walk far for most everything.

Telephone:
Cost: 0 USD per person


Tips:

1. We stayed in the West Wing. Having stayed in the Grand Tower before, we both agree that the West Wing (generally 10USD more a night) is a better deal. Pros: Better bed (firmer w/ down comforter), better shower (more spacious, two shower heads), hipper feel. Cons: Only one king bed per room, and sq. ft. of room less than GT. So if you’re trying to squeeze folks in, squeeze in the GT.
2. If you stay in Vegas during the summer (temps reached over 100F in June), try to stay at one of the larger hotels with amentiies you like and use (i.e. poker room, pool, restaurants). It’s simply too hot to “hotel hop” in the middle of the afternoon sun – unless you cab it or take the monorail (5USD each way, to anywhere on the Strip).
