Monte Carlo Hotel Resort Las Vegas

Has anyone stayed there? Views/opinions?

Might be going there with some friends over the New Years weekend, and found a hotel/flight package for $800~ per person for 5 nights including flights + all fees + taxes.

I've never really been inside the hotel itself as a whole so would like to get some help.

How is the accessibility from the strip, just some general comments will be appreciated.

Thanks!

    poker room is a joke. Monte Carlo really isn't near anywhere you want to play for walkability. However I guess you could monorail to Aria/Bellagio. There is a good bar btwn Monte Carlo/Aria in the mall with cheap evening drink specials.

    I stayed there for two weeks during last year's WSOP in both a suite and standard room. The family-friendly swimming pool is on the first floor, along with a food court and a 24/7 cafe where I ate my all-day breakfasts.

    The small poker room was OK, and the promotions were high-hand jackpots and a weekend freeroll. I preferred walking across the street to the MGM Grand poker room.

    Still took me a while to walk to the Bellagio from MC though if the monorail is there that will work. That Devil's Cantina restauraunt is awesome. Can't remember if I tried the buffet. Found myself eating subway or fish tacos in the food court a few days.

    agreed, pretty sure from a time perspective it would be much quicker to walk directly to Bellagio.
  • moosemoose
    Well I don't know about that. You still have to walk the same distance to the far end of Bellagio for the PR. Inside or outside doesn't really matter. Monte Carlo PR is also pretty far from the front entrance and fairly close to the monorail.

    Ok..thanks for the responses so far, but I got a few more.

    Aside from the PR, how is the walk from strip to elevators to hotel? Is it as bad as MGM Grand where you literally have to walk through the entire casino to have access?

    Has anyone stayed at NYNY and give an opinion on that too?
  • actyperactyper
    Yes you would have to walk through the entire casino, but its not as big as mgm. Taxi area is a lot closer though.

    I liked the rooms but the rest of the hotel was just OK. Then again I stayed when they were building the City Center so being at the pool was a bit annoying.

    Booked it...just under $810 per person for 5 nights in their deluxe room, flying out from Toronto.

    Another $40 or so for the resort fee so total is just under $850 for flights/accommodations.

    I did last July and will never again.

    dunno man seems like a rip....we did flight plus hotel stay for $413 CAD 7 days!!...if we would have spent more $ like 40/night for 7 daysit would be around $640 for an amazing room. but as for the hotel, its faaaaaaaaaaar dude.....we tried to walk there and got there but the walk back to ceasars was not gonna happen. i'd suggest the best area would be around ceasars and flamingo for distance...b/c venetian /bellagio is where u wanna play and they both are like 3/4 min walk from flamingo

    Monorails were great when I went, I dont think it was too bad at all. I stayed at the Aria which is connected right to the monte carlo. Monorail goes right to the bellagio. I suggest going to the aria's poker room, it was great, real busy friday nights. I plan on staying at monte carlo next time i go because i loved the aria, but its cheaper at the monte carlo and they are like connected, like 4 min walk max
  • CompleXEHCompleXEH
    Yea depends when you go, I was looking at going Dec. 26 - 29 or 30 and so far cheapest is like $550-600. Even spirit air is $395 just for round trip flights
