Vegas Hotels On And Off The Strip

By Joseph Archibald

If you are thinking about going to Las Vegas for a break but are not only looking for a bit of the casino life but some peace and quiet too, then its a very good idea to consider some of the off-strip hotels. There are lots to choose from, many of which are about a mile or so from the strip so you can venture to the strip when you feel the wish.

Perhaps though you are looking for the old world charms - old colonial style buildings or some other historic period maybe. well if you think that Las Vegas is all modern hotels to suit the modern style casinos, you are in for a pleasant surprise. There are quite a lot of old traditional style buildings that have been converted into very tasteful hotels. Take your time and browse a Vegas hotel website and you will find some gems.

You may be thinking that Vegas is about modern-day hotels to match the modern-day casinos. Well yes and no.
If you care for a bit of the old-colonial style building work then you can find that in Vegas. Its a nice thought - sitting playing roulette (and winning of course) in the surroundings of a beautiful old colonial style building!

On the other hand its a God-send that modern-day buildings offer up the possibilities of being either in downtown Vegas or some place nearby but yet you are not constantly disturbed by the noise.

If you are not far from the strip then noise can of course be a major problem, unless you tend to be up all night and sleep in the early hours of the morning.

If you are keen on finding a good discount on your hotel then off strip is good for that. While these hotels are competing with each other on price and service, at the same time they have to compete with the on strip hotels too. Thus the prices at almost any time of year are real keen.

So even if you are struggling to find a great discount its certainly not the case that you will find hotel prices in the area particularly high.

So it is possible to find some great off strip hotels that will offer you the best of both worlds. Many are situated within a mile or so of the strip so if you care to venture there on occasion its easy and quick to do so, whereas at the same time if you are not interested in the strip at all then you are far enough away to avoid it entirely. Have a great time!
