It’s a bit sneaky and I wonder if we would have been better staying on the proper part of the strip. I’d read about them doing this, although I don’t know if other hotels do it too. I was relatively annoyed, but decided to pay the $11, having read that the “run of house” rooms were VERY sub-par. We could upgrade for $8 per night to stay in the actual hotel but in the furthest away block (the one to the right in the picture), $11 for a nice part of the hotel, or $17 for the most deluxe rooms. So naturally, the $20 per night base rate that I had paid (plus $36 per night resort fee) was for a section that wasn’t even part of the hotel. Hotels are, of course, a quintessential part of any trip to Vegas, although at this point any hotel would have been exciting to us because we’d almost forgotten what hotels are.Īs it happens, we were staying in one (I bet most of you expected me to find a hostel!), although far from the luxury of the Bellagio or Mirage we were right down at the end of the strip, in the totally tacky Circus Circus.Ĭircus Circus is a weird hotel, in that it’s split into several sections, and you can pay an increasing amount to “upgrade” to each one. Which means all we could see were bright lights and huge hotels and flashing casinos, and you could almost forget that it was dark – but you definitely couldn’t forget that you’re in Vegas.
