Question of the Day - 29 November 2015

Q:
How old do you have to be to book a room in Vegas?
A:

This is one of those questions where the answer is, It depends on who you ask. Both Station Casinos and Boyd Gaming require a minimum age of 21 to register at any of their hotels -- even Station’s poor relation, Days Inn at Wild Wild West. The 21-or-older rule also applies to all Caesars Entertainment hotels on the Strip, as well as all MGM Resorts International ones – even non-gaming hotels such as Vdara and Delano. However, you can still stay at CityCenter, since Mandarin Oriental takes bookings from 18-to-20-year-old customers.

A few other Strip hotels cater to 18 year olds, namely Elara and The Four Seasons, both of which are non-gaming properties. And, much to our surprise, a few casino-hotels will allow 18 and 19 year-olds to book a room. The Golden Nugget has a two-tier policy, allowing 18 year olds to rent regular rooms – but you have to be 21 or older to qualify for a suite or luxury room. The Lucky Club, out by Las Vegas Motor Speedway, lets out rooms to 18 year olds, as does Super 8 at Ellis Island Casino. (This was a double surprise, as Super 8 Nellis has a 21-and-over policy.) Boutique hotel Rumor entertains 19- and 20-year-olds if they’re from out of state, but visiting Nevadans must be at least 21. Nineteen is the cutoff age for Westgate Las Vegas guests, as it is for Las Vegas Marriott Suites.

The most ecumenical policy is found at Residence Inn Convention Center, which rents to anyone with a credit card and valid I.D. In fact, the Convention Center area is an excellent one in which to stay if you’re 18 and in Vegas, because there is such a high concentration of hotel rooms you can book. Aside from the ones already mentioned, Las Vegas hotels with an 18-year-old threshold of entry are:

  • Alexis Park
  • Americas Best Value Inn Downtown
  • Best Western Plus (Henderson)
  • Courtyard Las Vegas – Convention Center
  • Extended Stay Hotel Flamingo
  • Fairfield Inn & Suites Airport
  • Hilton Grand Vacation Suites Convention Center
  • Hilton Grand Vacation Suites Flamingo
  • Hilton Lake Las Vegas Resort
  • La Quinta Inn – McCarran
  • Marriott Grand Chateau
  • Renaissance Las Vegas
  • Royal Resort
  • Springhill Suites (must have own credit card
