We had some frequent flyer points about to expire, so on a whim we
scheduled a flight to Las Vegas March 11-16. We have, however, run
into sticker shock trying to find nice lodging, probably due to spring
break markups or some other event. As first-time visitors we have been
advised to go "where the action is" but it's more important to us to
have a nice (4-star type) place to stay rather than to be right on the
strip.
I will continue fussing with Priceline etc. but don't have much hope.
So, what are some suggested alternatives to the $300/night strip
hotels? We wouldn't mind staying even an hour or so out somewhere
where we could explore some parks and drive into the city once or
twice. It'd sure be nice to stay under $100 or so per night.
Thanks
