The Monte Carlo will soon get a huge makeover but for now it is doing
just fine as The Park Las Vegas has opened next door and the food
options out in front of the resort are both excellent and affordable.
The pool area is attractive and the rooms, while standard, are just
slightly above average for Las Vegas but priced very well.
What to expect at the Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino:
The
Monte Carlo is what you could call the best moderately priced hotel in
Las Vegas. Its location is ideal near the corner of Tropicana and Las
Vegas Blvd. Its neighbors include New York/New York, MGM Grand, and the
Excalibur. The Monte Carlo is also connected to ARIA and Bellagio by a
monorail. The Cosmopolitan is also within walking distance. This is the
ideal resort for families as it offers affordable fast food for all
meals, an exciting and entertaining pool area and corridors that allow
children to not have to walk through the casino.
The property has a high end feel at mid-level prices.
What you might like at the Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino:
Andre's
has an extensive wine list and fabulous ambiance. For the children the
food court gives them options and gives you flexibility and convenience.
The lazy river in the pool area will provide a long restful afternoon.
Low limit tables tend to survive here even on crowded weekends. Happy
hour specials are also in abundance at the Monte Carlo Hotel.

What you might not like at the Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino:
There
is a lack of Vegas flash at the Monte Carlo. There are no loud lounge
acts to waste away a few hours and the general feeling can sometimes
feel stale. The lounge at Brand Steakhouse is a decent place to have a
drink and the occasional performer will do. You can however, head out to
Diablos and enjoy the people watching. If you need a great drink walk
into the Hit Lounge
My suggestion:
If
you have kids, this is the place to stay for the price, convenience and
location. Next door at NY/NY they have a large arcade, across the
street at the showcase mall there are movie theaters, a virtual reality
games and the Excalibur, a short walk away, also has the midway area for
children. Without children it is still a full service resort for a
fraction of the cost of the big boys. You don’t encounter the large
amount of kids like you would at the other kid friendly hotels.
