This three-tower, off-the-Strip hotel is known for its crazy parties and celebrity stopovers. It features over 700 sleek rooms with up-to-date technologies; numerous popular clubs, and two large pool areas. But while there are some good restaurants, the food is not a main attraction, unlike at similarly priced Strip centerpieces such as MGM or Mandalay Bay, or even at off-the-Strip Hard Rock, which boasts a Nobu.

Located on Fremont Street in Downtown Las Vegas, the upper-middle-range, 2,419 Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino is an off-the-Strip alternative for travelers seeking a different side of Sin City. The property may be smaller than its peers on the Strip, but it still offers plenty of entertainment options, with its 45,000-square-foot casino, two pools (one with a waterslide through a shark tank and another for adults only), multiple bars and restaurants, and a small spa and fitness center. Top restaurant options include a steakhouse, sushi at Red Asian Cuisine, and Grotto Italian Ristorante, and an all-day buffet. Live entertainment and a nightclub are also available on-site. But guests should be forewarned: booking rooms is a crapshoot, as some smell of smoke, some are a bit dated, and some are subject to late-night noise. On the plus side, all come with flat-screen TVs, free basic Wi-Fi, and hairdryers. It’s worth considering Excalibur Hotel and Casino, which is along The Strip and offers a plethora of family-friendly features.

The 2,024-room New York-New York Hotel and Casino is an upper-middle-range themed property with a roller coaster located right on the Strip, within easy walking distance of casinos, shops, and bars. The property offers all the usual features found at most other Vegas resorts -- including a lively casino and multiple restaurant options such as a buffet and steakhouse -- but the mellow vibe and huge arcade with dozens of machines make it more suitable for families than for young partiers. Rooms, while spacious and comfortable, have seen better days and lack coffeemakers and mini-fridges, though that’s common for Vegas. An outdoor pool, roller coaster, dueling piano bar, and provocative Cirque du Soleil show are some of the property’s standout features. Rates are reasonable for the location, but families looking to stay on the northern end of the Strip may want to compare rates at Treasure Island Hotel & Casino.

With rock-bottom rates and tons of family-friendly features, the mid-range Circus Circus Hotel & Casino is a popular option on the Las Vegas strip. The mega hotel’s 3,773 dingy rooms are not the main attraction, instead the on-site amusement park, waterslides, arcade, and hourly circus performances attract families looking for affordable fun on the strip. However, guests should expect crowds everywhere. Also on the downside, cleanliness issues are common throughout the property, and rooms are quite drab and worn, plus they lack mini-fridges. On-site dining options are limited (by Vegas standards) and other amenities like the fitness center and beauty salon are underwhelming. For better accommodations on the strip, families should check out Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, though it’s pricier.

Planet Hollywood Hotel and Casino is a three-and-a-half pearl property with a hip vibe and a convenient central Strip location. Its 2,496 air-conditioned guest rooms have a modern monochrome style plus excellent bathrooms and modern amenities. The casino includes all of the standard Vegas games plus go-go dancers and a clubby soundtrack. Unfortunately, its two pools -- including one for adults only -- get crowded and poolside loungers are limited. However, the FlowRider surf simulator is a hit. Planet Hollywood’s 11 restaurants range from chain eateries to an excellent Gordon Ramsay burger joint, and other amenities include a spa and gym. Big-ticket celebrity residencies like Pitbull and Britney Spears are also big draws. Travelers who'd like a more Euro-inspired theme might opt for the equally over-the-top Paris Las Vegas, though its features are slimmer.

Treasure Island is a three-pearl hotel and casino with a solid location at The Strip's northern end. The property’s 2,885 air-conditioned rooms are pleasant enough, but a bit worn, and include flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and free Wi-Fi. The popular casino features table games, slots, and a race and sports book, but keep in mind that it's smoky. Tightly packed lounge chairs and cabanas surround the big pool and a live DJ spins pop music. Food-wise, the hotel’s restaurants get positive reviews and range from steak to Vietnamese to a buffet. Other amenities include a modern gym, bars, and a spa. The on-site Cirque du Soleil show and Marvel Avengers experience are big draws as well. As an alternative, the Paris Las Vegas offers over-the-top Old-World accents with a slightly more upmarket atmosphere.

When it comes to the 5,044-room, upscale MGM Grand Hotel & Casino, "grand" is the operative word. One of the biggest hotels (by room count) in Las Vegas also has many of the best restaurants in town, a massive casino, an enormous and fun pool complex, and a huge range of on-site entertainment options. This place is so big and diverse that everyone -- yes, everyone -- can find what they want, even if the service is unexceptional. All that said, this is a solid candidate for those looking to find all the extravagance and variety of Vegas -- including comfortable rooms with king beds, minibars, and Carrera marble bathrooms -- under one roof. On the downside, note that rooms lack coffeemakers and there’s a hefty daily resort fee (covering Wi-Fi and fitness center access) – though both are typical for Vegas. It's worth comparing rates at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, which offers a similar everything-but-the-kitchen-sink experience, though some travelers may find its location less desirable.

An elder statesman among the Strip's mega-resorts, the upscale, 3,044-room Mirage Hotel and Casino relies less on thematics and a booze-fueled party scene for its appeal -- opting instead to emphasize comfortable (if small and a bit worn) rooms, an enormous pool, diverse dining options, and plenty of entertainment. Attractions, from a giant volcano with a nightly fire-and-water show to a Dolphin Habitat, are aimed at a multigenerational clientele. Contemporary rooms are starting to show their age a bit, but the spacious, multi-bedroom villas are a decadent choice for those who want to splurge, with backyard pools and lots of modern amenities. For nicer and larger rooms, guests might want to consider The Venetian Resort, which is suitable for both couples and families.

Convenient to the Las Vegas Convention Center, the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino is a quiet alternative to Strip hotels, particularly for business travelers and conventioneers. But with near-nightly entertainment, a sizable casino, and various dining options, the resort doesn't have to be all work, no play. Travelers who want an even shorter walk to the convention enter could try Residence Inn Las Vegas Convention Center, though it lacks resort features (no casino, no restaurant or bar, no room or poolside service).
