Cheap travel options abound to visit Las Vegas flying via cheap airplane tickets and staying at one of many discount hotel rooms, or purchasing cheap vacation packages. Although Vegas hotels are cheaper than ever, some hotels are better suited for families.

Hotel amenities that appeal to children include suites with lots of room, onsite bowling alleys, mini golf and kid friendly pools. The following are inexpensive family friendly Vegas hotels both on and off the Strip recommended by Frommers:

• Excalibur and Circus Circus were designed with families in mind and offer regularly scheduled free entertainment and large arcades. Some prefer Circus Circus because it has its own theme park and miniature golf.

• The Orleans is seen as the most family friendly hotel located off of the Strip. It sports a 70 lane bowling alley and an 18 screen movie theater. Onsite child care is offered as well as a free shuttle running to the Strip every 30 minutes.

• For the best view, the Stratosphere Casino, hotel & tower, is recommended. So long as a guest is not staying on a lower floor magnificent views ...
... can be enjoyed from every room. The view from the tower on top of the Stratosphere, located at the northernmost end of the Strip, is unparalleled.

• The Carriage House offers the best suite deals close to the Strip. This hotel sports lots of room for families to spread out in a nongaming environment only a block from the Strip. Mealtime can be made much more affordable by cooking in one of the full kitchens found in every suite. Full cable TV with over 40 channels is offered as well as Nintendo at an hourly rate and free board games.

• The Flamingo sports five pools, two whirlpools, a kiddie pool and waterslides set in a tropical environment accessorized with exotic birds and koi ponds. This hotel also offers very appealing family buffets. Children under the age of eight enjoy discounted meals while taking in a surrounding of birds, habitat and fishponds.

• If peace and quiet off the Strip is what you want for your family, then check out Henderson at the Green Valley Ranch resort. Guests enjoy the luxurious surroundings, as well activities specially designed for children, including an onsite multiplex. While it does offer a casino, adults can choose to play golf or sun by the pool.
