[@nene3857]

Please explain why guests are expected to pay this "resort fee?"

[@2jcward]

The Harrah's recently renovated Valley Tower is definitely best bang for your buck!

[@NuYawk]

Good choices. I stayed at the TI several times as was always happy there. I also think the Mirage is an awesome pick for the price. Another great vid Chris...keep posting!

[@williamwingo4740]

5:35 It's sad when free parking on the Strip is described as "pretty neat."

[@Mebirduwine]

I park at the Palazzo self parking is still free there...but yes you are right

[@apriladams4596]

It is pretty sad that 'Free Parking' is listed as a selling point... it's ridiculous that the hotels have to nickel and dime you for everything. That being said, if you have a certain status on your rewards, you can get free parking at multiple resorts - for example, I have Pearl MLife Status, so I can park at any MGM Property for free using that card.

[@williamwingo4740]

@@apriladams4596 It reminds me of the old unknown comic joke: "Why does a dog lick himself? Because he can!! They do it because so far, they've been able to get away with it. But they have sacrificed long-term customer good will for a short-term boost to the bottom line. Sooner or later, the customers won't put up with it any more, and then they will pay the price.

I always thought the "resort fee" is a rig off ...... why don't the just factor it into the cost of the room instead on hiding it as a seperate fee ?

[@user-ix3yh8yt7r]

I know, right?! There's a lawsuit about it.

[@MrAgentAardvark]

Its a sneaky way for hotels to be higher on the search list when using booking sites (when searching by low price) and they save money by only paying commission to booking sites on the price, not the resort fee

[@therealdgh13]

/\ Combination of that, comping, and taxes

The harrahs really works for me , it has the best location on strip. A good and classic casino, and all the rooms are renovated

That is a good point. In so many other hotels, I find myself getting lost and needing to ask someone how to get to a specific place within the hotel, but never with Luxor.

[@EALeathers]

@@IsnanaDayton I agree it's aggravating trying to look out the windows of the Pyramid rooms, I say Tower room or no room. They basically have regular floor to ceiling windows, feels much roomier too.

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

EA LEATHERS But they do that other resorts across the world to yes it does seem a little bit ridiculous because you’re not staying on an ocean front in Cancun helping the erosion of the waters with your money and keeping the place clean I do wonder what the money is used for from these resorts in the community of the strip of Las Vegas Roads repairs plumbing imagine how much plumbing they need for that place it would be good to see actual numbers of what the actual resort fees are for but I just want to remind you that if you stay in Italy even an Airbnb they charge extra fees in Cancun timeshare to Florida.

[@JMSynthetics]

My wife and I stayed at New York, New York and found it to be a nice stay, atmosphere was upbeat, value was great and the location i think was on the better end of the strip where it seemed a bit more lively.

[@crankycoachman]

Just stayed at the TI and loved it. Excellent location, very comfortable beds, pillows & sheets. Bath linens were just ok. Gilley's was dead every time we walked by. If you are staying Sun-Thurs, you can ask for the TV special which has low rates and the option of declining the resort fees. For morning coffee, I recommend avoiding the two Starbucks on the TI property, and instead take the skybridge to the Fashion Show Mall. There is a Starbucks there that greeted us by name and knew our drinks after just one visit. Stayed at the remodeled Sahara/SLS last year and it was fine. Overall higher room quality than TI, but location is remote so you will have to factor monorail tickets into the cost.

[@54Ripster]

I agree about TI is nice. one of my favorite places on the strip. Overall i prefer downtown places. But then i do not need expensive fancy rooms to have a great time in vegas.

[@jasonhuwe8857]

Always enjoy whenever you do a Vegas video and Luxor is my usual stop when I go to Vegas glad someone else appreciates it as much as I do

[@KrustySnax]

For my fellow smokers, MGM resorts no longer have smoking rooms. We always pick a Caesar’s entertainment brand hotel. Flamingo, Harrahs, Linq and Bally’s all have good deals when you book direct and most of the times you can get a comp room if you book directly through the hotels website. We always stay at the flamingo to get the most bang for our buck and a great smoking room w/ a fridge and view.

[@cosmoreed3461]

For more budget-friendly hotels, these all look like great options. I like the idea of staying at the Marriott Grand Chateau as you can use Marriott Bonvoy points to stay there! It is cool that some of these hotels offer free parking, but I have a feeling it is just a cover-up for the resort fee. Regardless, it is still a nice perk!

The Luxor is huge. We stayed there in 2014, it was spotless clean and the bed was very comfy!!

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks for the report on the Luxor Coral!

[@vixapphire]

Can't believe at least one of the Flamingo's/Harrah's/Linq is not in this list. Their location and the always far more reasonable prices than Caesar's etc. are pretty much no brainers. We just stayed at the Flamingo and while it wasn't super fancy, it was definitely a great room for the money. The resort itself is okay (like all of the mid-level places) and the upscale Caesars and Bellagio are an easy walk across the bridge.

[@starkiller18]

Excalibur is a great hotel for the cost. Sure it isn't fancy but I have stayed there several times over the years ang been very satisfied. I would actually choose it over the luxor.

I got a very nice suite at the Flamingo for under $50 plus the resort fee. Great view of the strip, except for the fact that it was in the middle of that big Donny and Marie sign. You can still see out the windows, but through a mesh. Might check out the Cromwell. Walked through their casino area, but didn't wander to any other sections of it. What I liked about that area, is that it's right around the center of the strip. I'm not one to go to any place fancy to get food, so the cheap eats that are to be had nearby worked just fine for me. There's the area leading to the High Roller with food, including an In and Out, and between the Cromwell and Paris there's the Grand Bazaar Shops.
