I recently travelled to the good ol' US of A - to Las Vegas for my best friends wedding. Myself and the other half went as we are all long time friends. Firstly my other half hates tall buildings and is not that keen on flying, as they are our best friends, he put his worries aside had a couple of beers and got on with it.

When we decided to go to Vegas we had not booked a hotel so we searched the internet and rang up the major chains to see what the prices were. What was really important for us was the location as we did not plan to hire a car once there but to our amazement we were horrified to find that the prices were quite high as it was a weekend. Undeterred, we continued until we found a gem of a hotel on the Strip opposite Treasure Island and next to the Venetian. The gem of a hotel I speak about is called Casino Royale as the price was approximately half what we were quoted from anywhere else that had rooms available on the strip. We booked a double room for ...  Read the complete review
