Aria Charges Guests $26 For A Bottle of Water

Quote

 

Also, the person restocking the mini bar..Knocked on my door while I was taking a break between conference and dinner, was grateful to get in. I hadn’t looked in it, he cleaned out of the mini bar – food crammed in the fridge from two guests ago. Told me they are short staffed and can’t keep up.

Told me the price after I had already (out of thirst, in the desert) consumed (fortunately only one) bottle of water. Fortunately the Starbucks downstairs sold water for “only $7.45”.

Circa has a pretty good All Inclusive deal through Sept 4th. 2 days/$400. Room, $100 food credit, $100 drink credit and a Stadium Swim daybed (normally $300 min). Includes resort fee and taxes.  Sunday through Thursday only.

Been to Vegas a million time to party and gamble. Going M-F next week for work and staying at Caesar’s as that’s where the conference is. Not my first choice after staying there last year and feeling like the place needs a massive refresh.

Anybody try to eat decently healthy while in Vegas? I usually don’t so recs in or near Caesar’s would be appreciated. I don’t want to send the company into bankruptcy with my expense report so value (relatively speaking) is also appreciated.

Anybody done the pool there? Won’t be available until later in the day but hoping to snag a free chair and take a break from losing money in the later afternoons.

Going to answer my own question and post it in case there are other people looking for the same thing. Work travel has packed on the pounds so now I have to be careful.

True food kitchen - Caesars

Roku Sushi - Caesars

The Halal Guys - Venetian

Canyon Ranch - Venetian (lunch only)
 

Does the pool really close at 5 pm each day? If so that is a huge kick in the dick considering the resort fees.

Tell them you decline the resort fee. They can’t force it on you, by Nevada law, allegedly.

I tell them “just send that resort fee to my host.”

 

I’m not that concerned about it because my company is paying and I’ll probably use the gym. Just saying a $56/night fee for a pool that closes at 5 pm is shitty. Google AI is saying that’s standard so I guess they can get away with it.

I’m going next week and my wife is wanting to rent a car and drive to the Grand Canyon. Anyone done that? I’m not looking to spend the night there, just see the West Canyon sky walk and drive back to the hotel.

Sounds like she’s just trying to check a box. Book her a seat on one of the helicopter tours and save her a bunch of time.

If you're flying from Austin, you will go right over it.  Tell her she can see it twice without devoting a day to it.  Then duck.
