It's a lot quieter than the other hotels on the strip. But it has it's problems! First of all, they shove Lance Burton's face in your face 24-7. The room toilets have fountains in them. LOL. Don't eat @ Dragon Noodle...the waitress we had was the rudest person in creation. She actually YELLED at us for not being ready to order. No one who works there can speak English. The Buffet is sickening. All of the hotel room furniture is chipping. OKAY, maybe I'm being picky but it wasn't that great. Save your money...go to Caesar's.

We have just arrived home from our holiday in Las Vegas. This was out second time and before we stayed at the Luxor. I have alot of bad things to say about this hotel. First the plumbing noise was absolutely horrible. every time someone in your floor went to the toilet or had a bath or shower you could hear it as if it was in coming from your bathroom. We had a creaky floorboard in our room and everytime you walked over it you would go down and inch, it was very dangerous. There was no cupboard in the standard rooms only a rail. The resturants are great and so was the Lance Burton magic show. I strongly reccomend you to go and see it. Also another great show was siegfreid and roy at the Mirage. When we checked in our rooms were not ready as we had asked fro joining rooms. They told us these would not be reday for another 4 hrs and we couldnt wait that long. We had to get rooms that wernt even close to each other. The worst thing of all was the staff. they were very impolite and rude and some would even ingore you and wouldnt bother with you. The staff were the worst in the Cafe and Buffet. As soon as they find out you are australian they get even worse cause they think australians dont tip. Well we are not going to tip good them if they give us poor service are we?

I think that the Monte Carlo is in a great location and you can walk to just about all the major hotels. If you dont like walking there is a bus that goes up and down the strip every 10 minutes and it stops right out the front of the Monte Carlo. It only costs $2 Adults and $1 per ride.

I will not be coming back to the Monte Carlo and if i come back to Vegas i will go somewhere with a better reputation.

I and a companion stayed here from 07/07/03 to 07/10/03 and overall we had a great time. We loved the location, just a short walk to many hotels and attractions. Would have been nice if the monorail to Bellagio was running, but we understood that it was being expanded.
Check-in was okay, we arrived a couple hours after check-in time and was told our room was not ready, after a four hour flight and being on a cramped plane you do not want to hear this! Would have been nice if we had been offered a meal while we were waiting. Usually we were so tired at night we heard little, but one night someone coughing in the room next door woke me and I was awake quite a while. we liked the pool though the girls that took drink orders were pretty slow due to no fault of their own, they seemed to be trying to accomondate too large of an area. The most helpful person at the hotel was a younger woman at the bell deak, I wish I had gotten her name, she provided very helpful information about the buses in Vegas and also gave us hints about traveling by taxi and she didn't even hold her hand out for a tip! One thing I really liked about the location were the drugstores, one next door and one across the street. these allowed the purchase of snacks, drinks and necessities at a fair price. I would stay here again because there are more pluses than minuses. I will add that I was not impressed with the casino itself, I did not win anything here and I thought you had to accumulate way too many points before even receiving the most meager comp.

My God, it's noisy. We travel a lot, and we're used to some level of noise in hotels...but the Monte Carlo beat them all. If you've got a room with a door to the adjoining room, even if both doors are shut, you can hear *details of your neighbours' conversations*. This just isn't good enough. We were uncomfortable using the television in case it disturbed the neighbours. Some friends were staying in the hotel at the same time as us, and they experienced a similar problem.It's an expensive hotel, and the service just doesn't match the price; nor do the room fittings. There's no wardrobe in standard rooms, just a rail. Baths are very shallow and short, and the bedsheets aren't actually large enough for the beds (did the hotel buy a job lot of queen-sized sheets by accident?)When we arrived, the room we had booked wasn't available; we were put in a room with two queens instead. We had to move our own bags to the king-sized room we'd booked when it came available the next day. No discount, and a very half-arsed apology.We stopped by the information desk to ask about local buses. The attendant said 'they go from the Strip' and wandered off. Yes, the pool's great (and the pool staff were delightful). Occasional members of staff, especially those in the spa, were very helpful, but others were catastrophically useless...like the chambermaid who refused to make up our bed because we'd left a bottle of perfume, a book and a pair of glasses on it. When we got back to the room at three in the afternoon she was in there throwing up her hands with the floor manager, who told us sharply not to leave stuff on the bed. I repeat: a bottle of perfume, a book and a pair of glasses. The casino's fun, and the restaurants are decent; Andre's is excellent. If only casino/hotel owners would realise that the standard of their rooms is as important as that of their casino and other entertainment facilities. Next time we're staying at the Mandalay Bay.
