What is a Las Vegas resort fee?

A daily charge of $35–65 added to every Strip room rate on top of the advertised price, covering amenities like Wi-Fi, the pool and the gym whether you use them or not. It's the cost most UK travellers don't budget for. Virgin Hotels, just off the Strip, charges no resort fee at all — the single biggest saving on this list. Downtown and locals' casinos charge lower fees (typically $20–40), and a few smaller properties skip them entirely — always compare the all-in price.

What is the cheapest decent hotel on the Las Vegas Strip?

Circus Circus — on recent midweek searches rooms start around £22 a night, the lowest price of any casino resort actually on the Strip, and it comes with the Adventuredome indoor theme park attached. Just off the Strip, OYO Hotel and Casino (one block from the MGM Grand corner) starts around £27. Both are dated compared to the mega-resorts, but at a tenth of Bellagio's rate they're how budget travellers do a Strip address.

How much does a budget Las Vegas hotel cost per night in 2026?

On midweek dates, real bookable rates run roughly £20–55 a night across the budget tier — locals' casinos like Arizona Charlie's from around £20, Downtown Fremont casino hotels £34–56, and off-Strip picks like Silver Sevens or Alexis Park in the £29–36 band. Weekends typically double those numbers, and event weekends (CES, F1, EDC) can triple them.

Do budget Las Vegas hotels charge resort fees too?

Most casino hotels do, but smaller ones charge less — typically $20–40 a night Downtown and at locals' casinos versus $35–65 on the Strip, and a handful of budget properties charge none. The fee can double a £25 room, so always judge a cheap Vegas hotel on the all-in nightly figure, not the headline rate. Our hotel pages show total price including taxes and fees.

Is Downtown Las Vegas / Fremont Street safe for tourists?

The Fremont Street Experience canopy area is busy, well-lit and patrolled — millions of visitors walk it every year. Like any US downtown, the blocks beyond the canopy get quieter at night, so stick to the main drag and use rideshares after midnight. Standard city awareness, not a reason to skip the cheapest good hotels in Vegas.

Where should families stay in Las Vegas on a budget?

Circus Circus is the classic budget-family pick — the Adventuredome indoor theme park and circus acts are on-site and rooms start around £22. Excalibur's castle theme runs about £55 with a family-friendly pool, and off-Strip The Orleans (from ~£51) has a bowling alley and cinema in the building. All three keep kids busy without Strip prices.

Should I stay on the Strip, Downtown or off-Strip?

Center Strip (Bellagio, Caesars, Park MGM) for a first Vegas trip — the fountains, the canals and the icons are at your door. Downtown Fremont (Golden Nugget, Plaza, The D) for cheaper rooms, cheaper gambling, the LED-canopy light show and vintage energy, 20 minutes away. Off-Strip (Virgin Hotels, Tuscany, Ellis Island) to cut the price and have a quieter stay with a short rideshare in.

Are Downtown Las Vegas hotels cheaper than the Strip?

Usually 30–50% cheaper for an equivalent room, with lower resort fees, cheaper food and lower table minimums in the casinos. The Plaza — a 4-star with more than 10,000 guest reviews — starts around £39 a night on midweek dates, a price no Strip 4-star touches. The trade-off is a 20-minute rideshare to the Strip icons.

Which cheap Las Vegas hotels are walking distance to the Strip?

Ellis Island (from ~£46) is a 5-minute walk behind Horseshoe; Tuscany Suites (~£57) is one long block east; Mardi Gras (~£48) sits near the Convention Center monorail; and Silver Sevens (~£29) is about a mile east of Planet Hollywood. You save £50+ a night for a 10–20 minute walk or a £8 rideshare.

Is Circus Circus okay to actually stay at?

Go in with the right expectations: it's a 1968 property at a 1968 price point, and the rooms are simple. What you get for ~£22 is a real Strip address, the Adventuredome indoor theme park, free circus acts, and one of the cheapest buffets on the boulevard. For families and budget travellers it's the best value on the Strip proper; honeymooners should look at the mid-range tier instead.

Do cheap Las Vegas hotels have pools?

Almost all of them — desert summers make a pool non-negotiable even at £25 a night. Standouts in the budget tier: the Plaza's rooftop pool Downtown, Tuscany's garden pool among its low-rise suites, The Orleans' family pool, and Sam's Town's Mystic Falls indoor atrium. Pools at budget properties are simpler than the Strip mega-complexes but they do the job in 40°C July.

Can you do Las Vegas on £50 a day after the hotel?

Yes, if you eat where locals do. Rough math: £15–20 a day on food using casino food courts, locals' casino specials and the £10-ish breakfasts off-Strip; free entertainment (Bellagio fountains, Fremont light show, Ethel M chocolate factory); £10–15 transport if you walk the Strip and use the Deuce bus; leaving £15 for a drink or a modest bet. The budget hotels in this guide are in the neighbourhoods where that maths works.

Which budget hotels are best if I don't want a casino at all?

Alexis Park All Suite Resort (from ~£36) is a non-gaming all-suite property opposite Virgin Hotels; Serene Vegas is a small boutique nearby from ~£35; Downtown, the Downtowner Boutique Hotel and Oasis at Gold Spike are casino-free bases two blocks from Fremont Street. You lose nothing — every casino in the city is happy to see you as a visitor.

What's the 21+ rule at El Cortez?

El Cortez Downtown is an adults-only hotel — every guest must be 21 or over, no children even accompanied. That's a plus for couples who want vintage Vegas (it's run continuously since 1941) without kids in the corridors, but families should book the Plaza, Golden Nugget or Circus Circus instead.

How far are the locals' casinos like Sam's Town and Boulder Station from the Strip?

The Boulder Highway cluster (Sam's Town, Boulder Station, Arizona Charlie's Boulder, Longhorn) sits 15–20 minutes' drive east of the Strip; Arizona Charlie's Decatur is a similar drive west. All have free parking, cheaper everything, and suit travellers with a hire car — pair one with a Hoover Dam or Valley of Fire day trip. Without a car, stay Downtown or near the Strip instead.

Which Las Vegas hotels have the best pools?

Caesars Palace's Garden of the Gods is the most dramatic — six pools across a city block with Roman statuary. The Venetian has 11 pools on three levels, Resorts World has the largest single complex, and Wynn's Encore Beach Club is the most in-demand pool party on summer weekends. In the desert heat, the pool is the main daytime event.

Which Las Vegas hotel is smoke-free?

Park MGM is the only fully smoke-free casino-resort on the Strip — you can breathe throughout the property. The Waldorf Astoria has no casino floor at all, the only Strip hotel where you reach the lift without crossing a slot machine. In the budget tier, the non-gaming picks (Alexis Park, Serene Vegas, Downtowner, Oasis at Gold Spike) are smoke-free by nature.

How do you get from Harry Reid airport to the Strip?

Harry Reid International sits directly on the Strip — Mandalay Bay and Luxor are visible from the terminal. A rideshare to Bellagio takes about 8 minutes and costs around $12, making it the easiest airport-to-hotel transfer of any major city. Budget picks like OYO, Silver Sevens and Alexis Park are even closer — some under $10.

Do UK travellers need a visa for Las Vegas?

You need an ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization), not a full visa — apply at esta.cbp.dhs.gov for $21. It's usually approved within minutes and is valid for two years of visits. Apply at least 72 hours before you fly, and make sure your passport is valid for the duration of your stay.

When is the best time to visit Las Vegas?

March–May and September–November are ideal — 22–28°C, low humidity, and pool season without the extreme heat. June–August hits 40–45°C, when the pool is the only comfortable outdoor option by noon. December–February is cool and has the cheapest room rates of the year — the sweet spot for budget travellers.

What are the cheapest months and days for Las Vegas hotels?

December to February (outside the holidays and CES week) has the lowest rates of the year, and Sunday-to-Thursday nights routinely cost a fraction of Friday–Saturday city-wide. The same £22 Circus Circus midweek room can be £70+ on a Saturday. If your dates are flexible, midweek winter Vegas is one of the cheapest big-city breaks in America.

Which Las Vegas hotels are best for couples?

The Cromwell is the romantic outlier — the only standalone boutique on the Strip, with Drai's Rooftop above. The Waldorf Astoria is the quiet, casino-free luxury choice with a 27th-floor spa and the best Strip view in the city. On a budget, El Cortez's adults-only vintage rooms Downtown are the couples' bargain.

Are there hostels in Las Vegas?

Very few, and for two people sharing they're rarely worth it — a £20–35 budget hotel room with a pool and free parking beats two hostel beds on price alone. Vegas is one of the few cities where the budget hotel, not the hostel, is the backpacker move.

Is parking free at Las Vegas hotels?

Downtown and locals' casinos mostly offer free or validated parking; most big Strip resorts charge $15–25 a night for self-parking on top of the resort fee. If you're hiring a car for Grand Canyon or Hoover Dam trips, that tilts the maths further towards Downtown and the locals' casinos in this guide's budget tier.

Are there direct flights from the UK to Las Vegas?

Yes — Virgin Atlantic flies London Heathrow to Las Vegas direct in about 10 hours. British Airways routes via Los Angeles or Phoenix, which adds time but can be cheaper, and TUI runs seasonal charters from regional UK airports.

How do I book these exact hotels at the prices shown?

Every hotel name in this guide links to that hotel's live page on JetMeAway — real-time wholesale rates, all taxes and fees shown, and a date picker to match your trip.

Best Las Vegas Hotels 2026: Strip Picks, Budget Stays From £20 & Resort Fee Survival Guide

4 June 2026•26 min read•By JetMeAway Scout

Our top Las Vegas hotel pick for 2026 is Bellagio for the definitive Strip experience — but the real story of Vegas in 2026 is at the other end of the price list, where real, bookable casino hotels start at £20 a night. With UK budgets squeezed, we've rebuilt this guide around all three price bands: 10 luxury icons, 10 mid-range Strip names, and 29 budget hotels we verified as real, distinct, currently bookable properties — 49 hotels in all, each linking straight to its live prices. The resort fee (added nightly to every Strip bill) is still the hidden cost most UK travellers don't budget for, and it matters twice as much on a cheap room.

Jump to your budget: Luxury icons · Mid-range Strip · Budget under £60

Scout's 3 best budget picks right now: 🎪 Circus Circus — from ~£22, the cheapest real Strip address, with an indoor theme park. 🏛 Plaza Hotel & Casino — from ~£39, a Downtown 4-star with 10,000+ reviews and a rooftop pool. 🎰 OYO Hotel & Casino — from ~£27, one block off the Strip by the MGM Grand corner. From-prices are live midweek July rates pulled while writing — tap any hotel for today's price on your dates.

Las Vegas sits in southern Nevada in the Mojave Desert, an hour by air from Los Angeles and the natural eastern gateway to the American Southwest — the Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce, and the red-rock country of southern Utah are all within a day's drive. The defining landmarks — the Bellagio Fountains, the Eiffel Tower replica at Paris Las Vegas, the Venetian's canals, Fremont Street's Glitter Gulch canopy, the Hoover Dam (45 minutes east), and Red Rock Canyon (25 miles west) — all sit within a day-trip radius of every hotel here.

The Scout's Take: The Strip, Downtown, or Off-Strip?

The Las Vegas Strip is a 4.2-mile section of South Las Vegas Boulevard. Everything you've seen in a Vegas movie — the Bellagio fountains, the Eiffel Tower replica, the giant pyramid, the Venetian canals — is here. Strip hotels charge a daily resort fee ($35–65 per night on top of the room rate) that covers amenities you may or may not use. The rooms are deliberately designed to disorient you — no clocks, blackout curtains, layouts that require passing the casino floor to reach any amenity. The Strip works if you accept the premise.

Off-Strip hotels (Virgin, Tuscany, Ellis Island, the Palms, the Rio) offer similar facilities without the Strip price premium but require a taxi or rideshare ($12–20) for most activities — or in several cases just a 10-minute walk.

Downtown Fremont Street is the original Las Vegas — the Glitter Gulch that existed before the Strip was built. A 1,500-foot pedestrian canopy with the largest LED screen in the world running shows on the hour. Smaller casinos, cheaper gambling, cheaper rooms, the vintage Vegas energy. 20 minutes from the Strip by rideshare. Most UK travellers who fly home thinking Vegas was too much have never been here.

For first Vegas: Center Strip. For repeat visitors: Downtown or off-Strip. For tight budgets: this guide's budget tier — Downtown and the locals' casinos are where £30 a night is still real.

The Luxury Icons — Our 10 for 2026

The Strip Icons

The eight properties on the 4.2-mile Strip — the boulevard's flagship hotels for first-time and repeat Vegas visitors. Each charges a daily resort fee but each delivers the choreographed-fantasy version of Las Vegas these hotels exist to sell.

1. Bellagio — Center Strip, 3600 S Las Vegas Blvd · 5★ · from ~£350/night. 3,933 rooms — the most recognisable hotel building in Las Vegas (the Ocean's Eleven heist target). The 8-acre lake with the choreographed fountains (free from the sidewalk, every 15–30 min from 3pm to midnight), the Conservatory and Botanical Gardens (changed 5 times yearly), and the highest concentration of Michelin-starred restaurants on the Strip.

2. Wynn Las Vegas — North Strip, 3131 S Las Vegas Blvd · 5★ · from ~£301/night. Steve Wynn's post-Bellagio flagship — 2,716 rooms, the most consistently high-quality room product on the Strip. The Lake of Dreams nighttime show, the Encore Beach Club pool (the most in-demand pool experience in Vegas on summer weekends), Lakeside and SW Steakhouse restaurants.

3. The Venetian and Palazzo — North Strip, 3355 S Las Vegas Blvd · 5★ · from ~£381/night. The largest hotel complex in the world (7,117 suites — all rooms are suites, minimum 650 sq ft). The Grand Canal Shoppes with working gondolas, St Mark's Square recreation, Canyon Ranch Spa (the most serious spa on the Strip), and 11 pools across three levels.

4. Caesars Palace — Center Strip, 3570 S Las Vegas Blvd · 4★ · from ~£193/night. 3,960 rooms across multiple towers — the original 1966 Vegas megaresort and still the most iconic Roman-themed property in the world. The Garden of the Gods pool collection (six pools, Roman statuary, a city block in size — the most dramatic pool setting on the Strip), Hell's Kitchen by Gordon Ramsay, the Forum Shops.

5. Park MGM — Center Strip, 3770 S Las Vegas Blvd · 4★ · from ~£142/night. The former Monte Carlo, completely reinvented as a smoke-free hotel — the only casino-resort on the Strip where you can breathe freely throughout the property. NoMad Las Vegas occupies the top four floors (NoMad Library Bar, rooftop pool). Smaller casino floor, quieter atmosphere despite 2,700 rooms.

6. The Cromwell — Center Strip, 3595 S Las Vegas Blvd. The only standalone boutique hotel on the Strip — 188 rooms, French-inspired design, Giada De Laurentiis restaurant (the first celebrity chef restaurant in Vegas headlined by a woman), and Drai's Rooftop Nightclub (the most architecturally distinctive rooftop on the Strip, with views the length of the boulevard). Compare live Las Vegas prices for current Cromwell availability.

7. Nobu Hotel at Caesars Palace — Center Strip · 5★ · from ~£277/night. 181 rooms within Caesars that operate as a hotel-within-a-hotel with direct access to Nobu Restaurant. Japanese aesthetic in the Caesars complex — quieter than the main Caesars tower, with the Nobu pool as the amenity. For food-focused travellers.

8. Resorts World Las Vegas — North Strip, 3000 S Las Vegas Blvd · from ~£115/night (Conrad tower). The newest mega-resort on the Strip (opened 2021) — 3,506 rooms across three hotel brands (Hilton, Conrad, Crockfords) sharing one resort complex. The largest pool complex on the Strip, facial recognition check-in, app-controlled room functions. The Conrad is the sweet-spot tower; the Las Vegas Hilton wing (from ~£90, 12,000+ reviews) is the value door into the same complex.

Off-Strip & Locals' Picks

The two best alternatives to the Strip — Virgin Hotels off the boulevard for the no-resort-fee crowd, and Golden Nugget Downtown on Fremont Street for vintage Vegas.

9. Virgin Hotels Las Vegas — Off-Strip, 4455 Paradise Road · 4★ · from ~£64/night. 1,503 "chambers" designed around the chambers-within-chambers concept. No resort fee — the most significant differentiator on this list. The Resort pool complex, Elia Beach Club. $12–15 rideshare to Center Strip. For travellers who resent the resort-fee model.

10. Golden Nugget — Downtown, 129 E Fremont St · 4★ · from ~£53/night · 5,600+ reviews. The finest hotel in Downtown Las Vegas — operating continuously since 1946. The pool complex has a water slide running through a shark tank (a detail that could only exist in Las Vegas). The Hand of Faith (61-pound gold nugget, the largest ever found) in the lobby. For repeat Vegas visitors and vintage atmosphere.

Honorable Mention

The Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas — Center Strip, 3752 S Las Vegas Blvd · 5★ · from ~£259/night (formerly the Mandarin Oriental). 389 rooms in a slim 47-storey tower at CityCenter — no casino floor, the only Strip hotel where you can walk from the lobby to the lift without crossing a single slot machine. Sky Lobby on the 23rd floor for check-in, the Tea Lounge (the most serious afternoon tea on the Strip), and the spa on the 27th floor with the most uninterrupted Strip view in the city. (For the real European original, see our best Vienna hotels for 2026.)

Mid-Range Strip Names — 10 Hotels From £55 to £110

The middle of the market is where Vegas gets interesting for most UK travellers: real Strip addresses, real casino-resort facilities, at a third of the icon prices. From-prices are live midweek July rates pulled while writing — tap any hotel for your dates.

Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino — half-scale Eiffel Tower on the Strip

11. Paris Las Vegas — Center Strip · 4★ · 4,152 reviews · from ~£107/night. The half-scale Eiffel Tower is the Strip's most photographed structure after the fountains it looks down on — ask for an Eiffel Tower-view room facing Bellagio. French-themed everything, and one of the best-located mid-price beds on the boulevard.

Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino Las Vegas

12. Planet Hollywood — Center Strip · 4★ · 3,849 reviews · from ~£99/night. Directly opposite Bellagio's fountains with the Miracle Mile Shops wrapped around its base and a headline-residency theatre in the building. Movie-memorabilia rooms, centre-of-everything location.

Luxor Hotel and Casino pyramid, Las Vegas

13. Luxor — South Strip · 3★ · 1,842 reviews · from ~£75/night. The 30-storey black glass pyramid with the strongest beam of light on Earth from its tip. Rooms line the pyramid's sloping walls (the "inclinator" lifts travel at 39 degrees), and it connects indoors to Mandalay Bay and Excalibur.

Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel & Casino

14. Flamingo — Center Strip · 3★ · 1,345 reviews · from ~£78/night. The oldest name still operating on the Strip (opened 1946 by Bugsy Siegel) — and its Wildlife Habitat with live flamingos is free to walk through. Retro-pink rooms, a big pool complex, and a dead-centre location on the boulevard.

Horseshoe Las Vegas

15. Horseshoe Las Vegas — Center Strip · 4★ · 1,123 reviews · from ~£63/night. The former Bally's, rebranded around its poker heritage — it hosts the World Series of Poker and sits at the Strip's busiest corner opposite Bellagio. One of the lowest reliable prices for a true Center-Strip tower.

SAHARA Las Vegas

16. SAHARA Las Vegas — North Strip · 4★ · 4,045 reviews · from ~£64/night. The revived 1952 name at the Strip's north end — modernised rooms, a Moroccan-flavoured casino floor, and a monorail stop in the building. Quieter than Center Strip, priced accordingly.

Treasure Island — TI Las Vegas Hotel & Casino

17. Treasure Island (TI) — North Strip · 4★ · 3,334 reviews · from ~£73/night. Home of Cirque du Soleil's Mystère (the longest-running Cirque show in Vegas) and directly across a footbridge from the Venetian. Solid rooms, straightforward pricing, best-in-class location for the north boulevard.

The LINQ Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas

18. The LINQ — Center Strip · 4★ · 2,942 reviews · from ~£79/night. The High Roller — the 550-foot observation wheel — turns at the end of its own promenade of bars and restaurants. Compact modern rooms aimed at a younger crowd, in the exact middle of the Strip.

Excalibur Hotel & Casino castle, Las Vegas

19. Excalibur — South Strip · 3★ · 6,324 reviews · from ~£55/night. The white-and-blue castle is the cheapest of the giant themed resorts — the family pick of the mid tier, with the Tournament of Kings dinner show and a free tram to Luxor and Mandalay Bay. Ask for a renovated Royal Tower room.

Best Western Plus Casino Royale, Center Strip Las Vegas

20. Best Western Plus Casino Royale — Center Strip · 3★ · 5,750 reviews · from ~£88/night. The Strip's smallest casino hotel, wedged between the Venetian and Harrah's — an unglamorous, brilliantly located base with famously cheap table minimums downstairs. You pay for the postcode, not the polish.

Budget Las Vegas Hotels Under £60 — 29 Real, Bookable Options

This is the tier we rebuilt this guide for. Every property below is a real, currently operating hotel we verified as distinct (no rebrands of the same building counted twice), with live wholesale rates on its JetMeAway page. Midweek from-prices were pulled on live July searches while writing; weekends run higher. Budget rule #1 in Vegas: judge the all-in price — our hotel pages show totals including taxes and fees.

On and Around the Strip (from £22)

Circus Circus Hotel, Casino & Theme Park, Las Vegas Strip

21. Circus Circus — North Strip · 3★ · 1,242 reviews · from ~£22/night. The cheapest real address on the Strip proper — with the Adventuredome indoor theme park and free circus acts under the big top. Rooms are simple and the property shows its 1968 age, but nothing else on the boulevard touches this price. The budget-family default.

OYO Hotel and Casino Las Vegas

22. OYO Hotel & Casino — one block off the Strip · 3★ · 8,224 reviews · from ~£27/night. The former Hooters Casino Hotel, one short block from the MGM Grand corner — you're a five-minute walk from the South Strip for a fifth of its price. Basic, busy, and one of the most-reviewed cheap stays in the city.

Silver Sevens Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas

23. Silver Sevens — east of the Strip · 3★ · 3,510 reviews · from ~£29/night. A Wyndham Garden casino hotel about a mile east of Planet Hollywood — free airport shuttle territory and locals' prices on food and tables. A £10 rideshare to the boulevard.

Serene Vegas Boutique Hotel

24. Serene Vegas Boutique Hotel — Paradise Road · 3★ · 3,767 reviews · from ~£35/night. A small, quiet boutique across from Virgin Hotels — no casino floor, palm-ringed pool, and one of the calmest cheap sleeps in the city. For travellers who want Vegas at arm's length.

Alexis Park All Suite Resort, Las Vegas

25. Alexis Park All Suite Resort — Paradise Road · 3★ · 3,974 reviews · from ~£36/night. A non-gaming, all-suite low-rise across from Virgin Hotels — every room is a suite, there are three pools, and there's no casino between you and your bed. The most space per pound in the budget tier.

Super 8 by Wyndham Las Vegas North Strip

26. Super 8 North Strip/Fremont — between Strip and Downtown · 2★ · 1,878 reviews · from ~£34/night. A no-frills chain motel on Las Vegas Boulevard between the two centres of gravity — clean bed, free parking, and both the Strat and Fremont Street within a short drive.

Thunderbird Boutique Hotel, Las Vegas

27. Thunderbird Boutique Hotel — north Las Vegas Blvd · 2★ · 2,310 reviews · from ~£37/night. A 1950s motor hotel given a retro-boutique refit — neon sign, small pool, no casino. Character per pound is off the chart; location suits Fremont Street more than the Strip.

Mardi Gras Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas

28. Mardi Gras Hotel & Casino — Convention Center district · 3★ · 8,245 reviews · from ~£48/night. Big simple suites a block from the monorail's Convention Center stop — a favourite of trade-show travellers who'd rather pay £48 than £248. Small casino, free parking.

Tuscany Suites & Casino, Las Vegas

29. Tuscany Suites & Casino — one block east of the Strip · 3★ · 8,102 reviews · from ~£57/night. Low-rise buildings around gardens and a big pool, with 650 sq ft suites as the standard room — the family-apartment alternative a 12-minute walk from Bally's/Horseshoe corner.

Downtown Fremont — Vintage Vegas From £34

Plaza Hotel & Casino, Downtown Las Vegas

30. Plaza Hotel & Casino — 1 Main Street · 4★ · 10,771 reviews · from ~£39/night. The anchor of Fremont Street's west end and the best-reviewed cheap 4-star in the city — rooftop pool, refurbished rooms, and the famous view straight down the canopy. Pound for pound, the strongest budget buy in Las Vegas.

Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas

31. Downtown Grand — 3rd Street · 3★ · 9,655 reviews · from ~£41/night. A block off Fremont next to the Mob Museum, with the Citrus rooftop pool deck as its calling card. Modern rooms at motel prices — the stylish pick of Downtown's cheap tier.

The D Las Vegas

32. The D Las Vegas — Fremont Street · 3★ · 6,999 reviews · from ~£46/night. Right on the canopy with the LONGBAR downstairs and a vintage casino floor upstairs running old coin-operated machines. Loud, fun, unmistakably Downtown.

Golden Gate Casino Hotel, Las Vegas

33. Golden Gate — 1 Fremont Street · 3★ · 1,297 reviews · from ~£34/night. The oldest hotel in Las Vegas — on this corner since 1906, a year after the city was founded. Tiny rooms, huge history, and the £1 shrimp-cocktail heritage of old Vegas at the head of the Fremont canopy.

Four Queens Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas

34. Four Queens — Fremont Street · 3★ · 598 reviews · from ~£52/night. A 1966 Fremont fixture dead-centre under the canopy, home to Hugo's Cellar — the old-school table-side-service restaurant locals book for anniversaries. Classic Vegas without the Strip mark-up.

Fremont Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas

35. Fremont Hotel & Casino — Fremont Street · 3★ · 543 reviews · from ~£56/night. The Boyd Gaming stalwart in the middle of the Experience — recently refreshed rooms directly above one of Downtown's liveliest casino floors. Step outside and you're under the light show.

El Cortez Hotel and Casino, Downtown Las Vegas

36. El Cortez — Fremont East · 3★ · 727 reviews · from ~£46/night · 21+ only. Running continuously since 1941 — the longest-operating casino in Las Vegas, once part-owned by Bugsy Siegel. Adults-only vintage rooms, cheap tables, and the Fremont East bar district on the doorstep. The couples' bargain of Downtown.

Main Street Station Hotel, Casino and Brewery

37. Main Street Station — Main Street · 2★ · 520 reviews · from ~£45/night. A Victorian-styled casino hotel filled with genuine antiques — and the Triple 7 brewpub, Downtown's best-value craft beer and food stop. Two blocks from the canopy, attached to the California by bridge.

Downtowner Boutique Hotel, Las Vegas

38. Downtowner Boutique Hotel — two blocks from Fremont · 3★ · 2,589 reviews · from ~£42/night. A 1960s motor lodge reborn with murals and a small pool — casino-free, quiet at night, and a two-minute walk from the canopy chaos when you want it.

Oasis at Gold Spike, Downtown Las Vegas

39. Oasis at Gold Spike — Downtown east · 3★ · 2,989 reviews · from ~£49/night. The old Gold Spike casino turned casino-free social hangout — backyard games, a work-friendly lounge, simple modern rooms. The most un-Vegas cheap stay in Vegas, one block from Fremont East.

Hotel Apache, Fremont Street Las Vegas

40. Hotel Apache — Fremont Street · 3★ · 241 reviews · from ~£50/night. The restored 1932 boutique rooms above Binion's — patterned wallpaper, period fittings, and Fremont Street directly below the window. For travellers who want Downtown's history rather than its slot floors.

California Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas

41. California Hotel ("The Cal") — Ogden Avenue · 3★ · 263 reviews · from ~£51/night. Downtown's Hawaiian-themed institution — for decades the first stop of Hawaii's package tourists, with island food court dishes you won't find anywhere else in Nevada. Friendly, quirky, two blocks from the canopy.

Locals' Casinos & East–West Value (from £20)

Arizona Charlie's Boulder, Las Vegas

42. Arizona Charlie's Boulder — Boulder Highway · 2★ · 334 reviews · from ~£20/night. The cheapest bookable hotel-casino in this guide — a locals' property with free parking and an RV park, 15 minutes east of the Strip. With a hire car, £20 a night funds a lot of Grand Canyon petrol.

Arizona Charlie's Decatur, Las Vegas

43. Arizona Charlie's Decatur — west Las Vegas · 3★ · 545 reviews · from ~£29/night. The west-side sibling — same locals' pricing, closer to Red Rock Canyon for hikers, with the diner-and-buffet economics the Strip abandoned years ago.

Longhorn Casino & Hotel, Las Vegas

44. Longhorn Casino & Hotel — Boulder Highway · 2★ · 231 reviews · from ~£42/night. A small western-themed locals' casino — the kind of place where the bartender learns your name by day two. Basic rooms, honest prices, free parking.

Ellis Island Hotel Casino & Brewery, Las Vegas

45. Ellis Island Hotel Casino & Brewery — Koval Lane · 3★ · 8,058 reviews · from ~£46/night. The family-run casino five minutes' walk behind Horseshoe — famous across Vegas for its own-brewed beer and the best cheap steak special in the city. Walking distance to Center Strip at a third of its price; book early, locals love it.

The Orleans Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas

46. The Orleans — west of the Strip on Tropicana · 3★ · 999 reviews · from ~£51/night. A full-size resort at locals' prices — 70-lane bowling centre, multiplex cinema, arena, big pool. The budget pick that feels like a mid-range resort, a 7-minute drive from the boulevard.

Gold Coast Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas

47. Gold Coast — Flamingo Road west · 3★ · 318 reviews · from ~£56/night. Bowling, bingo and a proper pool one mile west of Caesars — next door to the Palms and on the free-parking side of the freeway. A quieter base with the Strip's glow on the horizon.

Sam's Town Hotel & Gambling Hall, Las Vegas

48. Sam's Town — Boulder Highway · 3★ · 531 reviews · from ~£51/night. The Boulder Highway flagship — its Mystic Falls indoor park runs a free water-and-laser show under a glass atrium, and there's bowling and a cinema in the building. Old-school Vegas hospitality, 20 minutes east.

Boulder Station Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas

49. Boulder Station — Boulder Highway · 3★ · 1,746 reviews · from ~£49/night. A Station Casinos locals' property with an 11-screen cinema, cheap eats and free parking — the practical base for travellers splitting time between the city and the Lake Mead/Hoover Dam side of the valley.

Budget tier summary: cheapest Strip address — Circus Circus £22; best-reviewed cheap hotel — Plaza, 4★, 10,700+ reviews, £39; cheapest overall — Arizona Charlie's Boulder £20; best walk-to-Strip value — Ellis Island £46. Compare all Las Vegas hotels with live prices →

Best Las Vegas Hotels for Specific Trips

Las Vegas hides its real costs and its real choices behind the neon. Here's how the 49 hotels above sort by traveller type.

Best Las Vegas Hotels for Value (and the Resort-Fee Reality)

Every Strip hotel adds a resort fee of $35–65 a night on top of the room rate, so the real-value play is to sidestep it. Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, just off the Strip, charges no resort fee — the single biggest saving in the luxury tier. Downtown, the Plaza is the best-reviewed cheap 4-star in the city, and the whole budget tier above exists for exactly this question. Always budget the resort fee before you compare prices.

Best Las Vegas Hotels for Families With Kids

On a budget: Circus Circus (Adventuredome, ~£22), Excalibur (the castle, ~£55) and The Orleans (bowling + cinema, ~£51). With more to spend: Resorts World has the largest pool complex on the Strip, The Venetian has 11 pools and all-suite rooms, and Golden Nugget has the shark-tank water slide.

Best Las Vegas Hotels for Couples and Honeymoons

The Cromwell is the romantic outlier — the only standalone boutique on the Strip, with Drai's Rooftop above. The Waldorf Astoria is the quiet luxury choice with no casino floor and a 27th-floor spa. Wynn Las Vegas delivers the most polished full-Strip experience — and on a budget, El Cortez's adults-only vintage rooms are Downtown's couples' bargain at ~£46.

Best Las Vegas Hotels for Suites

The Venetian and Palazzo — every one of its 7,117 rooms is a suite of at least 650 sq ft. On a budget, Tuscany Suites (~~£57) and Alexis Park (~~£36) make the suite-as-standard formula affordable, and Mardi Gras gives big simple suites near the Convention Center for ~£48.

Best Las Vegas Hotels for the Pool

Caesars Palace's Garden of the Gods is the most dramatic — six pools with Roman statuary. The Venetian has 11 pools, Resorts World the largest single complex, Wynn's Encore Beach Club the biggest party. Budget pools that punch up: the Plaza rooftop and Downtown Grand's Citrus deck.

Best 5-Star and Luxury Las Vegas Hotels

The benchmark addresses are Bellagio (the definitive Strip experience), Wynn Las Vegas (the most consistently polished rooms), The Venetian (all-suite, Canyon Ranch Spa) and the Waldorf Astoria (European-style city-hotel luxury with no casino).

Best Smoke-Free and No-Casino Las Vegas Hotels

Park MGM is the only fully smoke-free casino-resort on the Strip. The Waldorf Astoria has no casino floor at all. In the budget tier, Alexis Park, Serene Vegas, the Downtowner and Oasis at Gold Spike are all casino-free — and smoke-free with it.

On the Strip, Downtown or Off-Strip — How to Choose

The Strip is the choreographed fantasy with the resort fee as the price of admission. Downtown Fremont is the original Vegas: cheaper rooms, cheaper gambling, the LED canopy, vintage energy, 20 minutes away. Off-Strip and the locals' casinos trade the boulevard walk for the lowest prices in the city and free parking. First Vegas, go Center Strip; repeat visitor or tight budget, Downtown; road-trippers, the locals' casinos.

How Las Vegas Compares to Miami and Los Angeles

Las Vegas sits cheaper than Los Angeles for comparable luxury and rough level with Miami — though the Strip resort fee narrows that gap considerably. A room at Bellagio or Wynn is priced like a Beverly Hills Hotel in LA or a Faena in Miami; a Cromwell or Park MGM sits closer to a mid-range West Hollywood boutique. Where Vegas breaks the comparison entirely is the budget end: neither Miami nor LA has anything like a £22 Circus Circus or a £39 Downtown 4-star. The three cities are the American resort triangle for UK travellers — Vegas + LA is a 4-hour drive across the Mojave; Vegas + Miami is a one-stop flight and a complete climate change.

Beyond the Casino Floor — Las Vegas's Essentials

A few non-gambling experiences worth planning around your stay:

High Roller Observation Wheel at sunset — 550-foot wheel on the LINQ promenade, 28 cabins. The Strip view from 550 feet as the neon begins to compete with the last light.
Fremont Street Light Show at 9pm and 10pm — the LED canopy runs shows on the hour. Stand in the middle of the street for the full overhead effect. Free.
Helicopter to the Grand Canyon — Las Vegas is the closest major city to the South Rim (270 miles). Papillon and Maverick are the established operators. Book a week ahead in high season.
Cirque du Soleil "O" at the Bellagio — 90-minute show on a 1.5-million-gallon stage that alternates between solid platform and water.
The Mob Museum, Downtown — the National Museum of Organized Crime in the former Federal Courthouse. Genuinely educational, plus the basement speakeasy bar — and it's next door to the budget tier's Downtown Grand.
Red Rock Canyon at dawn — 25 miles west, 2,000-foot sandstone cliffs in the Mojave Desert. 30 minutes by rental car from the west-side locals' casinos.
Hoover Dam day trip — 45 minutes east on Highway 93, the 1936 engineering monument across the Colorado River. Pairs naturally with a Boulder Highway hotel base.
The Peppermill Restaurant fire-pit lounge — 2985 S Las Vegas Blvd, North Strip. The 24-hour coffee shop that has been Las Vegas's locals' breakfast since 1972 — purple velour booths, the sunken fire pit, portions sized for two. The most authentic vintage-Vegas meal still operating on the boulevard.

JetMeAway's Scout feature surfaces this kind of neighbourhood intelligence automatically once you book.

UK Practicalities

Direct UK flights: Virgin Atlantic LHR–LAS direct, 10 hours. BA via LAX or Phoenix. TUI and seasonal charter from regional airports. Search flights to LAS.
Airport: Harry Reid International is directly on the Strip. Rideshare to Bellagio takes 8 minutes, $12; the budget picks near Paradise Road are even closer.
Visa: ESTA required (esta.cbp.dhs.gov, $21, instant, valid 2 years) — check the latest UK government travel advice for the USA before you travel.
Currency: USD. Resort fees are the hidden cost — add $35–65 per night on the Strip, $20–40 Downtown. Tipping: 18–20% restaurants, $1–2 per drink, $2–5 per bag, $5–10 per night housekeeping.
Best months: March–May and September–November (22–28°C). June–August is 40–45°C — the pool is the only outdoor option by noon. December–February is cool and the cheapest.
Budget: Strip trip — £150–300/night all-in. Budget-tier trip — £25–70/night all-in, £40–60/day food and fun. A 4-night budget trip built on this guide's cheap tier can land under £500 per person before flights.

Booking Las Vegas Hotels in 2026: Rates, Resort Fees and the Dates to Avoid

Las Vegas room rates swing more by date than by hotel — the same room can triple between a quiet Tuesday and a sold-out Saturday. The cheapest stretch of 2026 is December to February (outside the holidays), and mid-week stays year-round. Three recurring 2026 events spike rates city-wide — book around these, not into them:

CES, early January — the world's largest tech show, the single biggest rate spike of the year.
Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC), spring — sells out Strip and off-Strip alike.
Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, November — the night race runs straight down the Strip.

The number that decides your real cost isn't the headline rate — it's the resort fee. Across four nights that's £120–210 most UK travellers never budgeted. The cleanest dodges: Virgin Hotels (no fee at all) and the Downtown/locals' tier where fees run half the Strip's. Compare live 2026 Las Vegas prices to see the all-in number before you book.

Privacy Shield: Why Book Vegas Through JetMeAway

The major Strip casino groups (MGM Resorts, Caesars Entertainment, Wynn Resorts) operate some of the most aggressive direct-marketing programmes in the hospitality industry — casino loyalty programmes are specifically designed to capture your data and encourage return visits through targeted offers.

When you book Las Vegas through JetMeAway, your data reaches the hotel only at check-in, not the casino's marketing database.
