The first thing that comes to the mind of most people when they think about Las Vegas is a colorful city night on which enthusiastic people play casino games in the high voltage atmosphere of a star hotel: a scene straight out of Hollywood mafia films. But in reality that is only partly true. There are indeed posh hotels with an interior that matches those on the celluloid screen. But there are a substantial number of hotels that allow peaceful stay at modest rents. But one thing common in almost all hotels is obviously the casinos. In these casinos, gambling enthusiasts play in gay abandon. Lots of money change hands during each night. It is said that the light never goes off in Las Vegas casinos. In fact, it is not entirely true. The light does go off everyday. There is a light a show in Fremont Street, called barrel vault canopy, at the beginning of which the lights of the entire city, including that of casinos, are switched off.
Another important feature of some of the top hotels in Las Vegas is the golf courses owned by the hotel managements. In most of such golf courses, they will allow outsiders along with the guests of the hotel. But in some golf courses like Shadow Creek, which is owned by the company that runs Hotel MGM Mirage, only the guests in that hotel are allowed. But some other hotels are more generous. Another hotel called Hotel Bellagio has a spectacular musical fountain. This can be watched by anybody who wants to see it for absolutely no charge. Another special attraction is the lion safari in Hotel MGM Grand. These and other similarly attractive features are the specialty of up-market hotels. There are a number of budget hotels also. But the special features will not be there other than the customary casinos.
Almost all hotels allow online advance reservation. There are some other specific websites, which specialize in providing reservation of hotels in Las Vegas. Such websites can be found by searching on Google quite easily. These websites also provide user reviews about the hotels and tools to compare the prices and facilities of most of the hotels. Many such websites provide discount cards and special offers. One important thing one should understand about Las Vegas is its geography. The heart of the city is a boulevard known as the Strip. Hotel rooms on the Strip can be expensive. But staying in a hotel on the Strip is very convenient to move around the city. On the other hand, outside the Strip, especially in the downtown area, accommodation facilities are comparatively cheap. But one has to spend extra time and money for commuting to the city and back.
