I am off to Vegas Oct.10, 4 nights in MGM. Been there twice before, but saw some new things to check out. Have booked V the Show+Brazilian restaurant. Is there anything new in Downtown let me know, otherwise I am skipping it. Also, I liked the buffet at CC, so will have dinner there for $20 instead of $32 at MGM. BTW, got a good rate IMHO from Travelocity for $522(hotel+2way air), cant complain eventhough a long 4hr layover at SLC. What do I do there? Is it even worthwhile to exit the airport to walk around somewhere close by?
Brazillian restaurant is on discount on travelzoo, FYI. Will you have a car? Otherwise the extra expense to get to CC buffet would offset any savings. (and I think I can safely say the buffet at MGM is heads & tails better than CC; it has been a number of years, but the CC buffet reminded me of a military mess hall...but worse food) If you have a 4 hours layover, you would not have time to get anywhere (other than just outside the airport) then get back to SLC & get through security.
