My wife and I just returned from a 5 day stay in vegas… stayed at Paris. Fantastic! We ALMOST blew our annual vacation budget on that trip, but we have the opportunity to go back for 2 days, midweek with some friends for a birthday celebration. Our friends hooked us up with a deal on a flight and we are both wanting a cheap place to stay so we have more money to gamble and just have fun with (we are not expecting the same luxury that Paris offered this time around…we have pretty low expectations this time). Our friends haven’t been there before, and like I said, my wife and I just came back. We don’t really care about luxury on this trip, rather a relatively inexpensive place to stay near the action. Our friends keep bringing up Hooters because of the price (2 nights, bungalow room for less than $60 total), but I see that Excalibur would only be about $30 more for the same 2 nights. I’ve read that the Bungalow rooms at Hooter’s are pretty bad. Keeping lodging under $100 for 2 nights is our goal… which would be a better option? We are all early thirties. I know the Riviera, Circus Circus, and Sahara are all pretty cheap too, but we would rather stay near the south end due to the other properties that are within walking distance. We had considered some properties off strip, but figured the savings would be wasted on cab rides to/from the strip and are not too keen on relying on “shuttles” either. Suggestions?
You’re going with your wife & a couple who have never been to Vegas?? Come on…splurge & stay away from Hooters!!! Excalibur is fine and is good walking distance of some of the bigger places (Caesars, Bellagio, etc.). Have fun!

I love the Hooters hotel. Hands down I would stay there over Excalibur. It’s not that dirty. It’s no Paris, but I was very happy with it. I like it because it’s really really small so it takes no time at all to walk out the door. And your car is close by too. At the big hotels sometimes it feels like it takes 15 min. to get from your room to the door.
The Riviera, Circus Circus and Sahara all have disgusting rooms. And avoid the Tropicana like the plague. (They have a cockroach problem.)

There are lots of hotel deals on the Vegas strip as we speak. The key is to book directly from the hotels and always use a promo code. Here are a few codes. http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/special.php
