Ratestogo.com with the latest travel and hotel news around the world, would fit perfectly as a travel site I would visit and use as a travel guide. What's great about this site is that it even recommends suitable hotels available and best of all, you can make bookings directly.
I read with interest their article on the Ice Hotels. I didn't know there are so many of them and each with their own unique features. The site's suggestion of Six All Time Favorite Games For Travelling would give any parent some peace while the kids entertain themselves.
Did you know that the most expensive hotel room in the world is in the US? You thought it's in Dubai, didn't you? I learned it from Ratestogo that the most expensive hotel room in the world is the $40,000 a night Hugh Hefner’s sky villa at Palms Hotel in Las Vegas which tops the list as the most expensive luxury accommodation for 2007 though Hef himself has only stayed there once. I wonder which lucky Playmate got to play with him.
Talk about Las Vegas, how much do you know about Las Vegas?
According to Wikipedia, the area was previously settled by Mormon farmers in 1854 and later became the site of a U.S. Army fort in 1864, beginning a long relationship between southern Nevada and the U.S. military. Since the 1930s, Las Vegas has generally been identified as a gambling center as well as a resort destination primarily targeting adults. Relatively inexpensive real estate prompted a residential population boom in the Las Vegas Valley in the 1990s and continues to the present day.
The Las Vegas Strip (also known as The Strip) is a 4 mi (6.7 km) section of Las Vegas Boulevard South that has been designated an All-American Road. Only part of The Strip is located within the city limits of Las Vegas, Nevada: the section north of Sahara Avenue. The section south of Sahara Avenue is in Clark County's unincorporated Township of Paradise, Nevada. Many of the largest hotel, casino and resort properties in the world are located here on The Strip.
In 2007, the Las Vegas brand was the second most-recognized brand behind Google. In 2005, the valley hosted 34.7 million visitors. Are you part of this statistics?
I have been to Las Vegas a few times, but I stayed in the cheaper Candlewood Suites. No complaints whatsoever. Las Vegas has accommodation for people of different budgets.
