Posted May 7, 2014 I can't seem to remember where I had seen that list that showed what hotels in Vegas don't require room keys for the ladies to come upstairs. I'll be in Vegas in a few months and it would be much more discreet than having to meet the lady downstairs. Can anybody point me in the right direction, or make a few recommendations on some average to above average hotels that will make hobbying easier. Not looking to stay at a hotel like the Cosmopolitan or Mandarin Oriental, but not a Motel 6 either. I will have a rental car, but it's always nice not having to leave the comfort of your own room. Mahalo for any info you can share. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 14, 2014 I go to Vegas a lot and I can tell you with absolute certainty that the following casinos DO NOT REQUIRE room keys to go up to the rooms: Bally's Paris The Quad Rio As far as I know, none of the Caesar's Entertainment casinos require keys for elevator access, but I am certain the 4 above do not! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 23, 2014 The Stratosphere doesn't require a key either. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 27, 2014 Thank you folks for your info. Being that this is a business trip, I'll have to check with my bosses what's in the budget (as far as hotels go), but I'm thinking possibly either staying at either the Tropicana, Monte Carlo, or Excalibur. Any info on whether these specific 3 hotels require room keys for entrance? Bally sounds nice though, since it's right in the middle of the strip. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 28, 2014 Mandalay Bay and The Hotel don't post "guards". Anyone can take the elevator up. I know the Trump doesn't have any people looking for key cards either. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 28, 2014 I seem to remember Paris being the same way. Like Bally's it's near the middle of the Strip. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 28, 2014 Mandalay Bay and The Hotel don't post "guards". Anyone can take the elevator up. I know the Trump doesn't have any people looking for key cards either. Yes sir, you're correct. I stayed at Mandalay last year and have a nice time with a few ladies in the comfort of my own room. I seem to remember Paris being the same way. Like Bally's it's near the middle of the Strip. Paris is nice, but the big boss likely not approve of the price tag. Probably looking to stay near the buck 50 per night price range. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 28, 2014 Bally's and Paris are in a great spot and are pretty nice and inexpensive, too. I expect you can easily stay under $100 at them and many other casinos not requiring cards. I go to Vegas a lot, and I am 100% certain that Bally's, Paris, The Rio, The Quad, and most if not all of the other Caesar's owned casinos DO NOT REQUIRE cards for elevators. Visit the Total Rewards .com website for room rates at those hotels, if you want to be certain not to need a room key. Enjoy Vegas! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 18, 2014 Does anyone know about The Orleans needing room keys to access? They have a great rate during Mr. Olympia. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2014 Never mind...I just realized its not on the strip and I don't want that. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 22, 2014 Never mind...I just realized its not on the strip and I don't want that. The Orleans does have security down stairs that checks room keys. As for a strip hotel that's not crazy expensive but still pretty nice, I've stayed at the Monte Carlo and it's some what mid range as far as strip hotels go. Come back first week in November for SEMA ? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 15, 2014 MGM, Flamingo, Excaliber,Ballys do not look for keys in the elevators. I think many the hotels require room keys for the elevators to go to the top floors with suites and more expensive rooms. Have fun! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 17, 2014 My favorite is not that fancy and a walking distance from the strip. Tuscany.Small tiny buildings but you need to go downstairs to open the door for her.Or just meet her in the bar . 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 13, 2014 New technology with the Apple Watch is going to unlock your room by just waving it in front of the door. Not going to happen right away but technology is going to change even the way we get into our hotel rooms. You thing Big Brother is watching now... Just wait. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All the more reason to flip that metal switch when you get in the room for security reasons. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 29, 2014 You can also add SLS to that list. They check room keys at the elevators. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
