You can get a really good deal from one of the bigger hotels on the strip if you go directly to their website and sign up for promotions. Once you get the deal you're looking for then you can tell them to take your email off. I don't know if you want to go thru that but if you have a hotel in mind it might be worth it. We were just at Treasure Island for $89/night. If you're not on the strip and don't have a car then you want to think about how often you're taking a cab to the strip too.

Have fun!

My parents liked the Golden Nugget so I have no problem staying there, and the hotel in the canyon is one they stayed at as well, it's just Harrah's I'm not sure about :)
Harrah's is totally fine! If I had to choose between Harrah's and Imperial Palace, I would pick Harrah's. The location is ideal and the rooms are a little bit nicer than Imperial Palace. Also, Harrah's has an outdoor bar the plays great music all night long.

Soo here's what we did...we booked 2 nights at the Golden Nugget, 2 nights at a dumpy little hotel right in the Canyon (cheaper than staying in the village...not as nice but definately cheaper), and then 2 nights at the Flamingo (not my first choice, but DH liked the look of the pool....like we're even going to be spending any time at the pool, but whatever) and we rented a car for the week....and the grand total was $1478.00 including all flights and taxes and the car! Not too shabby :) So excited!

that will be fun, you should try Reno/Tahoe sometime too, not this time of year but spring-fall is beautiful there-I am biased though.

My boss goes to Tahoe all the time - she loves it too! She's going next week with one of our girlfriends and asked if I wanted to come along but I can't be in 2 places at once :P
