It's very important that you are aware of these hidden fees, especially before your trip to Las Vegas, so we are here to discuss what these new hidden fees are and the options you may have to potentially avoid them.

    You’re far more diplomatic than I. I stay at the Marriott Grand Chateau. I love the place. I don’t have time or the interest in scanning a restaurant’s menu for fine print which may or may not disclose a fee. I ask the server directly. If I don’t like what I hear, I pick up my tired old ass and leave. No one is forcing you to stay at hotels if you don’t like their policies. No one is forcing you to eat at Blondie’s. Vote with your wallet. Until enough folks, collectively, cause a significant drop in revenue for these businesses, it won’t change._

The homeless people were everywhere and hotels did not have enough staff to keep them out of the casinos and washrooms.

    I was just in Vegas and went to the Mexican restaurant on the Linq promenade. I noticed a small concession fee disclaimer on the sign out front but was willing to ask for the fee to be removed after the meal. I tried asking the server, he said he'd ask the manager. He came back and said nothing with the fee still on the bill. So I figured out the tip, minus the fee and that was the tip. Something's got to be done with all the extra nickel and dime fees.

    Vegas doesn’t get my business anymore. I was going 1-3 times a year for years since around 1995 eventhough my first trip was 1978.
    What used to be an adventure in the only adult oasis has now become a fee riddled , Disneyland with gambling. It was fun while it lasted.
    In Canada, no fees, no smoking, no tax on winnings (any amount), no kids, no pets, no resort fee (they hold $100 on your card ,but don’t charge it when you check out)
    For a Canadian and some other visitors, by the time you buy USD exchange, flight and all the fees , plus the strip and casino chaos it is to costly for a place they expect you lose your money gambling. To bad, had some fun times back in the day, and 1978,when the mob was there, let me tell you it was magically different on lol levels.

    Our Resort fee at Delano in December is $19.25 so not too bad but when we move to Cosmo its $50. Fortunately we comped at both as its a long hoof from the UK. Fees and tip percentages in the US is getting out of control so any fee I see comes off of any tip.

      That was when Caesar's owned the place and let it go to rot like they do all their properties except Caesars. But the new owners have been very busy and are committed to fixing it up.
      So far they've redone the rooms and many of the common areas as well as revitalized the exterior with new paint and lighting. That's just the beginning. The new owners seem fully committed to making the Rio at minimum, a 4 start resort. You need to take another look at it.

    All these places are passing on the cost of doing business to their costumers. I've asked several hotels what a resort fee was. I rarely get a straight answer. It's a gimmick to make the price of a room sound cheaper than it is. Also, why are we subsidizing health insurance for people in some places? I have to pay for mine, and my employer picks up the other half. Being a nurse, patients would not so quickly go along with an employee health benefit fee on their medical bills.
