Monte Carlo Hotel & Casino

Monte Carlo is ideally situated on the southern end of the Strip and is convenient to almost everything.

From the glowing crystal chandeliers to the sparkling marble floors, an exquisite ambience is apparent upon entering the lobby. Monte Carlo guests are accommodated in upscale, stylish rooms featuring only the best -- pillow-top mattresses, fine linens, wood furnishings, iHome docking stations and flat-screen TVs. The bathrooms boast Italian marble.

A boutique hotel experience can be found on the top (32nd) floor. HOTEL32 truly pampers visitors. You'll feel like a VIP with round-trip limousine service to the airport, a personal suite assistant, private in-room check-in and access to a private lounge. The fridge is even stocked to quench your every desire.

Dining at Monte Carlo covers an expansive epicurean spectrum, from the Chinese- and sushi-style meals of the Dragon Noodle Co. & Sushi Bar to the spicy festivities at Diablo's Cantina to the gourmet French food at Andre's Restaurant & Lounge. Brand Steakhouse offers an enticing evening of fine dining with oversized steaks and chops cooked to order, while d.vino is perfect for connoisseurs of Italian food and wine. Along with a hearty meal, The Pub serves up microbrews, sports and live music provided by dueling pianos.

Guests looking for a quick bite to eat have access to a range of different dining options at the Monte Carlo. The Buffet offers a cornucopia of American and international dishes. And the food court houses such well-loved brands as McDonald's, Manchu Wok, Sbarro, Subway, Rubio's and Starbucks.

It early 2014, the rollicking Double Barrel Roadhouse will debut. In addition to live music and the "DB girls," guests are sure to enjoy its American fare that comes in big portions and with big flavor. The drinks menu will also be packed with a wide range of spirits, cocktails, wines and craft beers.

The avant-garde Blue Man Group recently brought their colorful production to the resort -- and about 45 minutes before the day's first show begins, there is an unforgettable percussive parade through the resort that features a Percussipede (a musical centipede)!

Visitors who want a really cool nightlife experience can stop by the Minus5 Ice Bar. The bar is made entirely of Canadian ice. There are ice sofas, ice sculptures, ice walls and even ice cups. Ignite Lounge is another hip spot featuring sexy cocktails, LED color-changing lights and deep red-tinted doors.

A free tram connects Monte Carlo to CityCenter and Bellagio. The tram stop is located in the hotel's Street of Dreams shopping complex, where you'll find such stores as Marshall Rousso, Harley-Davidson and The Cupcakery.

The Monte Carlo also features a fine Spa & Salon, a fully equipped fitness center and a pool with a lazy river and a sand volleyball court.
