Las Vegas Resort Fees
What is a resort fee? It’s a charge added to your bill on a nightly basis for “services”. These charges are not listed until the ordering screen purchasing a vacation package, from a travel agent or on Expedia like sites.
In some rare cases the charge is actual worth the service (provided that you use it). Unfortunately in most instances it is purely an under-handed cash grab to up the overall cost per nights stay.
If you are strongly against the extra fees you should make an effort to stay at hotels (and chains) that do not charge the added fee. While the number of hotels that do not charge a fee is shrinking, they can be found in all classes (2* to 5*) and locations (strip, off-strip and downtown).

MAJOR UPDATE: May, 2013
The Las Vegas Hilton, one of the few ‘near’ Las Vegas Strip properities without a resort fee, has followed the lead set by, well just about everyone and they will begin charging a Fee of $18 a night starting on May 15th.
Hacks: There are a few ways to avoid Resort Fees at the Venetian/Palazoo, and at Treasure Island. At the Venetian/Palazoo you can decline the fee at check-in and as long as you don’t use the included amenities, you will not be charged. Treasure Island has a TV special promo that waves the $25 per night fee; this special has to be booked directly with TI (it’s here; titled $69 TV Special)
