I heard on a Vegas podcast that an mLife Gold member was given access to one of the VIP lounges at Monte Carlo. Does anybody know mLife Gold get you lounge access anywhere else on the strip?
Hey Mac, this is 2015, but it did a decent breakdown of MLIFE VIP lounges. http://singleflyer.com/2015/07/20/mlife-vip-lounge/ FYI the MC VIP lounge (the one gold has access to) is more like a way to bypass a long line at checkin/check out vs. Someplace to relax. You do have a few sodas (warm when we were there) and small juices, but at least until they renovate, I wouldn't view it as more than a way to bypass long checkin/check out. Unfortunately some lounges are no longer even platinum, but hosted guests only...(Mirage comes to mind) so use this link with a grain of salt. Again, the link is a little older, but it helped us narrow down properties on our last trip!
Yes Mirage is for host coded room key (black color reads VIP) also if you have booked 2 bedroom suite then you have access to this lounge, we were there twice mirage this year and had access to VIP room; they have variety soft drinks Variety types of juice, few types of beer and wine, they also updated their specialty coffee machine that offers few different types of coffee drinks(pretty good) it's basically VIP from check in also serve as lounge but it's quiet and get some drinks for free.
We had 1 br suite at Mirage and had access. Of course, this only meant you could grab a soda or beer. Wine after noon. No mixed drinks. Not really a lounge, but a checkin room. Even less at NYNY. No idea of Monte Carlo. And nowhere even close to CET Diamond Lounges.
