Cheap hotels are abundant in Las Vegas Nevada, if you know where and how to look. Some people have no qualms about staying in a luxury resort twenty minutes off the Las Vegas Strip and renting a car or taking a shuttle to get everywhere. Others prefer one of the older, less classy Vegas hotels as long as they're close to the action. Who goes to Vegas to sleep anyway? And still other people enjoy bargain hunting online through sites like www.cheaphotels.com. College students will often choose to stay in a hostel to experience "the full adventure." Lastly, travelers who have budgeted up to $100/night can book directly through the hotel websites to snag amazing deals.

First of all, if you're not fussy about when you travel to Las Vegas, then you can find cheap deals at hotels that are otherwise very expensive, but they just happen to have vacancies. Weekdays are half the price of weekends. The two weeks before Christmas (after the December rodeo and before the 25th) are a steal. Also, January is a good travel time because most people are nursing New Year's Eve hangovers and paying off Christmas bills.

The middle of summer in July or August will offer lower rates too because some people just hate the heat, although the savvy traveler knows that every place is air conditioned on the Las Vegas strip! When you call a hotel, be sure to ask specifically if they have any specials going on. It's one of those secret traveler hotel tips that could save you a ton; ask and ye shall receive!

It's amazing how much the prices drop as you get further from the Las Vegas Strip. Finding cheap hotels doesn't always mean sacrificing quality. Sometimes it's just sacrificing a little convenience. The Orleans Hotel and Casino is located on Tropicana Boulevard and is just a few blocks from the Strip, but the rates are as low as $51/night! The rooms are spacious with a king or queen sized bed and nice sitting area with cozy loungers and sofas. The property itself has a 70-lane bowling alley, casino, spa, fitness center, salon, bar, wine shops, pool/whirlpool, movie theater, 24-hour cafes and several restaurants.

Or you may also want to try The Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino on Flamingo Road, again just steps from The Strip, and with complimentary shuttle service! There are 20 retail shops, 13 dining establishments, 120,000 feet of gaming, an 18-hole golf course and the esteemed Masquerade Show in the Sky, all with rooms starting as low as $60. The Golden Nugget on Fremont Street downtown (prices starting at $63) is just six miles from the airport and offers a 45,000-square-foot casino, a three story outdoor swimming pool with a live shark aquarium, a water slide and private cabanas, a great Broadway showroom, five dining establishments, an international beer bar, a beauty salon, a fitness center and a spa.

Newly renovated, you'll love the modern, marble bathrooms and high-speed internet access right in your own room. On South Las Vegas Boulevard, which is 5 miles down from the Strip, is the South Point Hotel and Spa. It offers oyster bars, steakhouses, Italian luxury meals, plasma TVs, a full service spa, an 80,000-square-foot casino, outdoor pool/spa, movie theaters, bowling alleys and free shuttle service for as low as $50.

Calling all hardcore adventurers! Rather than cheap hotels, there are several even cheaper hostels to choose from if you're not picky about sleeping in the same room with strangers or sharing bathrooms, dorm style. At www.globosapiens.net, you can book a conveniently located Las Vegas Strip room at the Hostel AAE Casino Wild West Las Vegas for just $22.23, which will put you in a newly renovated room with just 3 other beds and an ensuite bathroom, with a huge pool and spa, as well as a casino onsite.

The 24-hour restaurant is also a huge draw, featuring $1.49 breakfast, 1/2 pound burger lunch for $2.99 and complete steak dinners for $4.99! This place is a budget traveler's dream! AAE Todds Las Vegas Hostel is located right next to The Stratosphere and offers a four-bed private ensuite for $19, with an onsite pool, free wifi and a common area kitchen. USA Hostels Las Vegas on Fremont Street ($22/night) will give you an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast, a swimming pool/Jacuzzi, wifi access, an optional limo tour with champagne and a common area games room.

Sin City Hostel at 1208 Las Vegas Boulevard ($19/night) has 4-6 beds in the common rooms and double beds in the semi-private rooms, bathrooms are new and there are many communal activities, like movie nights and BBQs. Sin City received the highest rating at www.hostelbookers.com with 83% approval, compared to USA Hostels' 74% approval rating.
