I am in Vegas - ALL THE TIME - between working there about 2 mos each year to 4-5 weekend trips a year I believe I have stayed at every hotel on the strip except Trump. I have to say that when it is on my own dime I nearly always choose The Mirage. The rooms are great, nicely decorated, clean, comfy. Location is perfect as you are across from the Venetian/Palazzo, and still easily walkable if you want to Wynn, Caesers, Bellagio, and City Center if you really want to.\n\nThe restaurants are great - particularly Japonais, but there could be a few more lunch options.\n\nI really really really like the pool. While they don't have a \"party pool\" (Wet Republic, Marquee Dayclub, etc) it definitely has a fun atmosphere and lots of chairs for relaxing.\n\nOn value alone would be a 5, but had to knock it to a 4 as of course there are other hotels that just offer more opulence (Wynn, etc), but all in all I think it is the best value and you can't go wrong with The Mirage.
