The Mirage is a lovely hotel. Nothing really special but clean and great location. Are you wanting value for money, or a real treat. If you are wanting to spend more, can offer lots of suggestions. If you book a refundable deposit you can always cancel as we have done.

Thanks JoS. I'm now trying to decide if I want luxury or more money to spend when we are there. I think I am going more towards money when we are there so I think the Mirage will fit the bill for that. Its a nice dilemma to have isn't it? And I haven't even started on what shows to watch etc, but that's a whole other thread!

Have posted a couple of pics of our room at Mirage. Not all glitzy and glam but it was very clean,and comfy bed which is very important to me. Pools are really nice. I think staff were the nicest I have ever encountered in a hotel before and went out of their way to be helpful. You will find better hotels but the price will be better as well The hotel had a nice feel to it as well.
We saw Ka at MGM which we enjoyed. Not seen any other shows as such apart from Celine Dion and Cher. As a middle of the road hotel, if you can get a reasonable price its nice. Have you signed up for Mlife rewards? You can book your stay on there website, with free cancellation and just one nights deposit and cancel any time up to 72 hrs before you go. We did that with Monte Carlo and about 6 weeks before we went the price dropped quite a bit so I cancelled and re booked. I am a great Expedia, and Travel Republic fan as well. Edited at 10:44 PM. |

Thanks for the pictures. It looks fine to me. A comfy bed is what is important to me too and the location.

I like the Beatles but the Stones are my heroes. I was under the assumption that Love would be just the lovey dovey slow soppy Beatles tunes. Fortunately it's not. It is amazing. So much so that as they have revamped it a bit we are going again.

FINALLY MADE A DECISION
Hi lovely dibbers. So, after having made up my mind that it was going to be the Mirage flying with Virgin from Gatwick, we popped into Thomas Cook this morning and came out half an hour later having booked the Bellagio, flying from Manchester with Thomas Cook! It's not quite as mad as it seems. Although Gatwick is our preferred airport,Manchester is easier for us this trip as DD is staying with my parents who live about 40 minutes from Manchester. When I was first looking at flights with Virgin, it was about £300 more to fly from Manchester which is why I dismissed it. I didn't realise we could fly direct with Thomas Cook. As for the Bellagio I don't know whether it was on offer, but it was actually cheaper than the Mirage, so it was no contest really. So we are flying out on Sunday 15th October at 9.15 from Manchester and staying for six nights in a standard double room (the cheapest!). We will be there for my 50th birthday and I am beyond excited. Before then, though, we have a trip to Zante in a trip to DLP to look forward to. I think I might need to buy some new suitcases! That is for all your help. I'm sure I'll be back asking lots more questions before we go! |

You can sometimes get lucky with hotels as you have . A few years back I looked a few weeks before I went and the Venetian was cheaper than what I paid for the flamingo .
And once I got the PH for a excellent price something like £40 night for the 4 of us . So well done for snapping it up , it'll be here before you know it |
