The Strip in Las Vegas hosts many of the city's best-known attractions, such as the Bellagio Fountains and reproductions of famous monuments and buildings from around the world. This eclectic mix of the extravagant and eccentric attracts visitors with its flashing lights, over-the-top abundance and countless casinos. For those traveling with dogs, the Strip offers very few choices, so dog lovers should expect to sleep at a hotel away from the heart of the Strip.
The Crestwood Suites of Las Vegas Boulevard is at the southern edge of the Strip near the Las Vegas Outlet Center. All rooms have a fully equipped kitchen with refrigerator, microwave and stove top, separate living rooms and bedrooms, and complimentary wireless Internet access. Guests can use the hotel's fitness center and swimming pool. The hotel allows dogs that weigh less than 20 pounds for a nightly pet fee of $15. The hotel also offers a discounted rate of $50 per week (as of May 2010).
