As far as I’m concerned the resort fees are the same as the airline baggage fees. They are crappy ways of raising your rate !!

Received offer from Mirage 3 nights in a suite + $150 freeplay. Will be using internet and fitness center for first time so resort fee is ok. Also freeplay easily offsets cost of fee. Total charge $54

We are coming to Vegas in August, staying at The Hotel. They instituted a $15 Resort Fee recently. It’s worth mentioning that they include in-room internet access and gym admission with the fee. Those are both extras that I would end up paying anyway, so it’s kind of like a wash. We considered Red Rock, and love the place, but the Station Resort Fee does not seem to include anything. We don’t play enough to merit comps, but three years of reading Las Vegas Advisor and this blog have helped us learn the tricks and get the deep discount we got!

I just received an offer from New York New York for three nights complimentary accommodations. In the fine print it reads “Resort fee of $12.95 per night might apply” ???

It is still a good deal, I feel.
