Looking for a great pool in Las Vegas
 
We're headed to Las Vegas at the end of August and while gambling is the priority, my friends are insisting on staying at a hotel with a quality pool. Through our travel club we can stay at either Harrah's, Imperial Palace, or Bally's. Has anyone visited the pools at these hotels? <BR>Thanks for your help!

I think the pool at the MGM is one of the better ones. I'm not overly wild about gambling, but I do enjoy the people watching there. It's a very large outdoor pool and I haven't ever felt claustrophobic even when lots of others have been in the pool. Only drawback is if the weather doesn't cooperate. I don't recall for sure, but I don't think the MGM has an indoor pool.

Have been to both the Luxor and Mirage. Both pools are nice, but the Mirage is by far the better of the two. It has several sections with several waterfalls, a lap pool and a water slide for the kids. When we travelled there, we gambled very little and stayed by the pool most of the day.

In their most recent "Best of Las Vegas" poll, the Las Vegas Review-Journal chose the Flamingo Hilton as the Best Pool in LV. Their readers chose the Mirage. <BR> <BR>I would add the Tropicana to that list, although I can't really recommend staying at the hotel due to their declining quality.

The best pool would be @ the Caesars Palace Hotel. Next in line would be the Mirage Hotel <BR>

Flamingo Hilton has the best pool in Las Vegas, hands down. Casino Player readers confirmed that.
