Suggested Hotels for Diva Las Vegas 2013(Last updated December 1, 2012)
The following hotels are suggested for DLV 2013 attendees:
(in alphabetical order)
A few notes on each hotel, including each hotel's official web site.
Harrah's is a very large midscale casino-hotel located in the heart of the Center Strip, just north of the Imperial Palace. The "Flavors" buffet is excellent and a DLV favorite! The adjoining Carnaval Court offers attractions and entertainment day and night. Very attractive hotel rates have been reported! Web site: Harrah's web site
The Paris is a very large upscale hotel-casino located just south of the "Four Corners" Flamingo-Strip intersection. The Paris is the first major Strip hotel to actively invite GLBT business (note that they have included the T). The Paris is very nice, but not cheap! It also tends to be crowded, particularly on the weekends. Countless shops and eateries grace the property. The Eiffel Tower is a major attraction and offers a spectacular view of the Strip! One caveat: Although the Paris promises that their staff will be TG-friendly, this is a very large casino-hotel and tends to be crowded at times.
Web site: Main Paris web site
Request: Even though Paris avows to be GLBT-friendly, we ask that you follow restroom guidelines closely if you choose to use public restrooms on this property. Please help set a positive example of Diva Las Vegas and the TG community in general.
They say that all of their rooms are "suites", but many say that they are simply large hotel rooms! The Tuscany Suites is a smaller midscale casino-hotel located just east of the Las Vegas Strip on Flamingo Avenue. The Tuscany rooms are spread about in several low-rise buildings instead of taller hotel towers. This makes the Tuscany ideal for those who do not wish to enter and exit by way of a crowded hotel lobby. The Tuscany is not recommended for those who will not be driving a vehicle and do not have pre-arranged rides to DLV activities. Taxi service can be spotty at the smaller off-Strip hotels such as Tuscany. Web site: Tuscany web site
Resort Fees: When comparing rates, please consider that the Tuscany adds a mandatory $14 per night "Resort Fee" to your bill. Reservations for Harrah's and Paris made after March 1 may incur a resort fee. Please consult with the reservation desk for information on this. |
