We pay it because we have no choice - they give us no choice whether you use the facilities or not.
The choice I do have is whether to stay at the properties that charge this fee or not. While we keep paying it they will keep charging it which is why I am looking for alternatives. I now count the resort fee as part of the cost and when you are going for 10 nights that soon adds up so a reasonable price soon becomes unreasonable! I again say there is no justification for the charges no matter what anyone tries to say!

My feeling on the rise of the resort fee is well known...but the only way the hotels get away with it is because we keep paying it. If we didn't, and they had empty hotels, I think they'd retract, don't you?
To be honest, the list of hotels not charging resort fees on the Las Vegas Strip is now pitifully small, I'm afraid.

They may be small but they are there, if I end up booking an alternative to the Signature suites then I will send them an e-mail saying why.
I appreciate this is very unlikely to make a jot of difference but I'll feel better!

Thanks everyone for your replies, very interesting reading and a lot of food for thought there
The hotels I think I would be interested in are:- TheHotel (again) but I think this will now be well over our price range, NYNY, MGM Grand, Planet Hollywood, although I worry about this hotel being a bit too young and hip for me lol, I have also thought about either the Monte Carlo or Paris, and perhaps tropicana and mirage, so plenty to look at and make a final decision about. Regarding price I have no idea what we are looking at. What I think is a good rate I have been told NO, you will get this so much cheaper lol We are hoping to go 6th march for six or seven nights, so any suggestions on what I'm likely to get for price would be appreciated, thanks |

We i wouldn't say we are hip and trendy, i'm 40, DH is 46 and with 2 kids , but we didn't feel out of place in Planet Hollywood. Tbh we spend very little time there anyway, we literally just sleep there, we didn't use the pool because it was early March and not open but i've heard its abit boring compared to many Vegas pools. As for price well its a piece of string.. the prices a few months before you go are nothing like what they are now.. From when i've looked the last 4 years they start to drop about 6 months prior. I think last year we paid $45 per night for Planet Hollywood for the 4 of us (beginning of March) using a link DiamongDog posted around the previous September. |

What's your budget per night? We've always travelled in off peak (for Vegas! ) in August, and I've usually paid $100 or less per night. The only exception to that was, I think, THEHotel and I think that was $109/night BUT included $150 credit for our stay.

Budget wise well I kinda thought for the six nights around £450 ish if that's possible in the ones I have listed, that's really why I asked as I haven't any idea how much to expect to pay

We have stayed at the Luxor, New York New York, bellagio, the cosmopolitan - had no complaints about any hotel
Depending on your budget I loved the bellagio and Cosmo - we now prefer been in the middle of the strip in July. Planet hollywood is a good location and when we visited there last July we didn't feel out of place and we are 41 Enjoy planning - we have just booked the Cosmo again today for our visit in July Sharon |
