Please help us choose - MGM grand vs TI vs Bellagio

We are 4 guys in mid 20%26#39;s with most of us going to Vegas for first time. After doing a whole day of searching for good deals in Hotel we%26#39;ve narrowed down our options into three.





For 5 nights,





Bellagio Standard Deluxe $220 per person



MGM Grand Tower $194 per person (Bungalow $238)



Treasure Island Deluxe $100 per person





Flights from Toronto ~$500 US airways





When we started booking we didn%26#39;t have high class hotels like Bellagio in mind, but after searching it felt within our budget (under $750 per person for flight + hotel). Do you think it%26#39;s worth paying $120 more to stay in Bellagio?





Instead of TI, we could go for Bally%26#39;s, Luxor, NYNY or Mirage for similar price. Do you think any of these other hotels is better than TI for us? Thanks a bunch.

For me it would be between the Bellagio and MGM. We are staying at MGM because we got a great rate, but before you book anything go onto smartervegas.com and see what kind of promotions they are offering. Then call the hotel directly to book your stay. I bet you find a better rate than the $194. for MGM.





Good luck

Thanks. I did go through smartervegas to find this deal. I think we are paying more than people expecting because of those extra guest charges being applied (which are like $30 per night per person i heard?) Plus that is CAD as i included the exchange rate and foreign exchange charges on my credit card.




I would choose Mirage over TI due to location and pool also they have just upgraded most rooms i think. Bellagio would be worth it for me for $120 more.




You must be looking at packages or 3rd party sites; your prices are all out of kilter. There is NO WAY MGM should cost twice as much as TI. And if the price difference between MGM and Bellagio is only $26 this is an incredible no-brainer. MGM is a vastly inferior property.



Keep checking prices!



Of your other choices, if they are the same price Mirage is by far the better deal, especially for your group.




Hmm. Let me give you the quotes I got and please let me know if they still seem unreasonable for MGM





I got code SDM055 from smartervegas which gave me the cheapest deals for MGM. For 3 Guests (one%26#39;s joining later and we are hoping we can get by) from Wed Jul 9 to Mon Jul 14, it costs $730 USD. When I convert that to CAD and divide it by 4, i get about $194 CAD





Now when I change it to 2 Guests for same number of nights, I only get $539 USD. So they are charging almost $40 per night for that extra person. Is $539 for 5 nights for one room still too high?





As for Bellagio, yeah i%26#39;m using the 3rd party site - US airways vacation. It is giving the cheapest prices...




hi guys



just got back from vegas today (fab fab fab) If I had choice I would go for the bellagio for location, quality of venue. Not wanting to assume by your ages but TI is probably better suited and will give you an insight into alternative venues for any future visits. Happy gambling!!!!!




I think you would enjoy the atmosphere, clubs, bars, and pools of MGM more than any of the others. My second choice would be Mirage.





Bellagio is lovely but it%26#39;s the kind of place you take your girl, not your buddies. Capisce?




Thanks a lot. How would you compare MGM vs MIrage? The price difference per person would be around $75 (for 5 nights). Would you take MGM for that price?




Bellagio, even with buddies. Its a top class hotel.





Great location to hit the strip.





You get out and decide hit left onto CP, TI, Mirage go straight into Paris/Planet Hollywood or turn right and down to NYNY, MGM.
