Hello all. I'm heading to Vegas this Fall for the first time with 7 of my friends and I'm organizing the trip. We will be arriving in Vegas Friday, November 7th in the evening and departing on Monday, November 10th to take the redeye back to the East Coast. I haven't booked our hotel yet because I've had quite a bit of trouble researching nightlife. We are looking to stay on the Strip, and NY-NY and Aria have caught my eye based on several reviews/pricing.
I found it quite easy to research where cheap gambling is (both downtown and on the Strip), but have stumbled in regards to bars/lounges/clubs. There are a countless number of them on the Strip and I can't quite determine what the difference is between them, except that drinks/cover is much greater for a club.
What exactly is the difference between the 3 and, based on that information, what are some of the better bars/lounges/clubs on the Strip? Thank you!
