Gold Coast or Orleans

Hi all

I will be returning to LV in May 06 for another great visit. I normally stay at the Gold Coast and love it, however everyone seems to be raving about the Orleans. Sould I move my booking to Orleans, why is it so good? I don%26#39;t care for the strip hotels anymore.

Thanks all

Newer hotel, better management.

Gold Coast or Orleans

Orleans better but I do better on tables at Gold Coast.

thanks for the positve feedback, I will now look at prices for Orleans.

zuki,when was your last visit to the GC?since april there has been a lot of changes,new furniture,bathroom%26amp; coffee makers.If you loved the GC before,you will like it better now.I like the Orleans but it is totally different, much more modern.GC is also much closer to other casinos,as you allready know!! also it is harder to get on the shuttle to the strip from the Orleans.

Hey Wally, you must have reas my mind. I was just about to ask what the bathrooms are like at the Orleans. Don%26#39;t get me wrong, I%26#39;m not whining however the GC bathrooms are a tad small and I find the baths (with overhead shower) very high. You say they have renovated%26gt; I was last there Sept 05. The room we had that time had a disabled bathroom so it turned out to be the size of a ballroom. This time my friend and I are travelling so back to normal room. I had already booked at GC and wa thinking of changing to Orleans. I really love the GC and would like to hear more of your thoughts. Ta very much

zuki,the bathrooms are still small,but have allnew fixtures.did Dr.Who have you already stay there in Sept.05,what is it like in the future?(only kidding!!)When are you staying!we are there again oct. 25-nov 1.For the sake of Allah,bring me a Big Ben pie if you are there on ANY of these dates,or I may have to take the big trip to OZ.!!

Wally, see what happens when I eat lunch late...can%26#39;t think! We will be there May 18 - 23 2006. My friend hasn%26#39;t been to the great USA before, so I will be in tourist mode. Big Ben pies YUK....we only eat the yummmmmmy ones from bakehouses which are home mae (so to speak). If you hit here you have to go to a bakehouse for a pie and follow up with yummy cakes. All our cakes are med with fresh cream. My relatives in Baltimore love my visits as I bring a lot of ingredients from home and made the best ever aussie foods.

Are you hungry???Maybe I had better send you some great recipes???? Ciao

Stayed at the GC for my last trip a few weeks ago. It now has an ironing board with an iron and also a coffee maker in the room. The bathroom and the pool are still small but I just love staying at this hotel. Somehow it just gives off a ';homey'; feeling that I don%26#39;t feel at the Orleans. I found the service and cleanliness to be great. If you read the posts about kids almost everyone tells families to go to the Orleans. From what I have read the place is now crawling with kids and I am afraid it is going to get worse now that everyone says it is better than CC or Excalibur if you have children- just something to keep in mind. I also like the idea of being able to go to the Palms and Rio with no hassle and the shuttle does run faster than the one from the Orleans. I always do better on the VP machines at the GC than I do with the ones at the Orleans.

VP,thats because they are 9-6 insteasd of 8-5,Crikey, I won 240 $ on a nickel triple bonus machine there!!zuki tell me how to make R00 TAIL soup!!,and dont tell me to catch a roo first!CHOOKS for sale!took me a while to catch on to that one!!

I always look and make sure I play 9/6 machines. There aren%26#39;t too many places left that have these machines- almost everywhere else they are 8/5. Most people don%26#39;t care but I do.
