MEC Hotel

Went a couple years ago and stayed at host hotel palms.... Didn't seem like a ton of moto going on there like it was at hard rock before. The buses to the linq had way more people. While cruising around the strip we saw DD at cromwell and then they had the party at drai's. I see this year has buses at Linq again and then Host hotel is Luxor. I feel it will be the same deal and there won't be much moto people at Luxor. Whats the usual best stay for monster cup these days??

Luxor is a dump and so is Hard Rock hell even Mandaly Bay has gone WAY DOWN HILL! If I was coming for an event and wanted to "do Vegas right" stay at Aria/ cosmopolitan and walk across the street to the Linq to catch a bus, or just do the Uber route that's probably the easiest.

If you don't care about that and want to stay in a clean hotel and still have strip access I would go with the Marriott renaissance or Spring Hill suites at the convention center. You can catch the monorail right next to the hotel to the strip, or grab an uber to the stadium.

I totally agree with your first paragraph there, been to vegas lots and really not that interested in luxor even with it being host hotel I don't see many people staying there. Hense I wonder where people have mostly stayed during monster cup week the last few years and have met industry people and such

Been to Vegas 5 times for sx and here are my recommendations...

1. Stay at a place close to the center of the strip.
(Bally's, Flamingo, Planet Hollywood)
2. How much money you take figure it all gone... like all of it ha.
3. Don't blow your load the first day.
4. Only go for 2-3 days max. Unless your rich!
5. Rent a car. Just the amount you will pay cabs or uber back and forth to the airport and the race will be what you would pay for a car for a few day. Plus if you have a car you can freestyle the trip , check out the Hoover dam, old Vegas ect.
6. tell your liver your sorry before ya get there !

MGM Grand signature.

Full kitchen, access to the pool and all of the MGM stuff, without the tourist vibe.

Don't call the girls on the prostitute trading cards expecting to get anything for the $69 special.
