DEATH VALLEY HOTELS
Regarding Death Valley accommodations I would recommend staying either in Las Vegas or in the towns around the National Park except it is your intention to list a night in Death Valley in your travel memories. In this case you will find only a few ‘motel’ or ‘hotel’ like accommodations but several camping grounds in the National Park. If you stay inside the park bring enough snacks and water. Because of the park’s remote location buying these items here is very expensive.
Again, I would plan the visit as a day trip staying outside the park. This actually helps you cutting down the distance to your next destination and the costs for an accommodation.

Hotels in Death Valley - East of Death Valley
Las Vegas
Room rates in Las Vegas are normally low during the week but increase about 50% over the weekends. The best recommendation, if you are looking for rooms in the 4 – 5 star hotels is to check with third parties like travelzoo.com, dealbase.com, hotwire.com, lastminutetravel.com, travelocity.com, etc.
On these pages you will find many value deals far below the rate posted on the hotels’ web pages. The lower rated strip hotels are starting at $30 per night in the shoulder season going up to $150 in the high season. The mentioned third parties usually offer great rates on them as well.
Staying along either side of the strip you should be prepared for long distances between the attractions. The cheapest strip hotels like Stratosphere, Sahara and Circus Circus are way off the strip’s busy center. I recommend staying at the strip’s center (around the Bellagio) to shorten the ways into each direction.
The new city center is located towards the strip’s south and you have to reckon walking distances of 0.5 miles to Bellagio and 1.2 miles to Venetian/Palazzo per direction. Same applies to the Wynn and Encore complex.
City Center hotels like Aria, Vdara and The Cosmopolitan are coming with modern and trendy interior if the theme hotels are too plushy for you.
Please note: Most hotels charge a resort fee up to $20 per night and room coming with free entrance to the pool area, newspapers and other extra amenities.
