Monte Carlo - The Real Deal :

We've never been big fans of Monte Carlo, but the strangely unplayable casino at ARIA has caused us to peek over the neighborly fence on more than one recent trip to CityCenter. Let it be said that the formerly staid and boring Monte Carlo has found a new pair of dancin' shoes.

New restaurants, new decor, new vibes and new blood plus the addition of the luxurious accommodations on MC's top floor - under the sub-moniker of Hotel32 - have collectively helped Monte Carlo shake off its ten year old case of the snoozes.

Location of Monte Carlo:

Monte Carlo is located towards the southern end of the middle part of the strip. Neighbor to the north is ARIA and the rest of CityCenter, to the South is New York-New York, MGM Grand.

Monte Carlo History

Opened in 1996, the Monte Carlo hosts Lance Burton, Master Magician, Single Zero Roulette (!!!). It is modeled after the Place du Casino in Monte Carlo, Monaco. In January 2008, errant welders working without proper safety equipment and permits accidentally set fire to the Monte Carlo's roof. Fortunately, nobody was injured and the damage was relatively minimal. Monte Carlo is back and better than ever now.

The Rooms at Monte Carlo

Monte Carlo offers three types of rooms, Deluxe Rooms, Monaco Suites (spa available) and Spa Suites. Deluxe rooms are on the smaller side (bigger than Harrahs, a little smaller than Mirage) have cherrywood furniture and nice views of the Strip or the Palms/Rio side. The Monaco Suites are a bit larger and a love seat/coffee table in front of the TV. If you want the spa option, make sure you request this when you reserve. The luxurious Spa Suite has a great view of the Strip or the Mountains right from the tub itself as well as a wet bar and real marble bathrooms. Nice stuff... we've got a friend who swears by the MonteCarlo and he's a pretty fussy guy.

Restaurants at Monte Carlo

Monte Carlo offers numerous dining options including:
Brand Steakhouse, Andre's Restaurant (award winning French cuisine), The Pub (casual dining and beer beer beer) Dragon Noodle dim sum, sushi and other pan-Asian goodies, d.vino (Italian food & wine bar), Diablo's Cantina (bar, lounge and Mexican food) a buffet, 24 hour cafe, Starbucks and McDonalds.
