The Rio for me as it's mostly comped and away from the Strip lowlifes and tourists..spacious rooms and Gold Coast and Palms quick walk across the street with package goods available at the GC for good prices..Easy to shop betting lines from the 3 different properties also.Love the sportsbook to chill out in in the mornings,comped beers and the food just off it is pretty decent.Other than less than optimal VP machines and hard to find 3/2 BJ,I have no problem with the Rio. 10 years running.
I'm of the opinion that once you've walked the Strip,no need to see it again..If you parents have never been,they can take a free shuttle from the Rio to the Strip or just stay at Harrahs..When you go with friends-may be completely different if pooling it and clubbing it at night..Harrahs is a decent midway spot.
Iv always stayed at the Rio, but this September I booked a room at Paris,
Reasons
Im older now and the rio is for a younger crowd
the shooting by some gang at the rio parking lot last week turned me off
Apparently this gang is known to hang out at the rio night clubs quite often
I dont travel alone, I have a wife and a 3 year old, I dont want my kid in harms way.
Bored with the Rio and I usually use the book at MGM Grand Or the Belagio
Belagio is right across the street and the location of paris is center strip without the center strip prices
and last but not least, Gordon Ramsay opens his newest venture inside the paris called Ramsays steaks, Not only a big fan of the show and the man but the food at his LA location is outstanding, buts its far from where I reside.
The Mirage is my fav.
Yes, it's older. No, it's not as "fancy" as Wynn or Encore. But it has a nice feel to it. Nice crowd. The pool area is great. The location is awesome. It's not the most expensive or the cheapest. By far, the Mirage is my first choice when I go. And I go once or twice a year...
