As the second edition of the Las Vegas Grand Prix nears, both ticket and hotel prices have been falling due to slow demand. But there’s still plenty of interest in attending the race, and we recommend securing your hotel reservation as soon as possible, preferably with free cancellation in case better deals come up closer to race weekend.

Booking your accommodation in Vegas on race weekend is never going to be that cheap, as rooms are in high demand and the hotels know it. Having said that, Sin City does have in excess of 150,000 rooms available, which at least provides plenty of choice and is helping to keep a lid on prices.

Away from the hype of $50,000 USD suites with balconies overlooking the track, thousands of rooms in decent hotels within walking distance of Las Vegas Street Circuit are still available for $300-600 USD per night. You’ll pay more for the best suites in the big-name hotels, of course, but reserving a room is less of a problem right now than finding race tickets. View all 296 hotels on the Las Vegas Strip.

Don’t Forget: Listed hotel prices in the USA are subject to additional taxes and fees, which normally add 15-20% to the nightly room rate. Most casino and resort hotels in Las Vegas require guests to be at least 21 years of age. Given that all of the F1 action will take place after dark, we don’t recommend bringing very young children to the race anyway. 

Dynamic Pricing

Most large chain hotels are employing dynamic pricing for the Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend, which results in prices fluctuating according to demand, so it’s worth keeping an eye on prices – or even considering booking a room now with free cancellation that can be changed later if you find a better deal. 

Rooms with a view? Several hotels face directly onto the circuit and some rooms may offer direct views, but not many hotels have balconies in Las Vegas, due to the baking temperatures and higher than normal risk of suicide in Sin City. The best rooms, including those with balconies, are mostly only available as part of very high-priced packages. 

Several of the biggest hotel and casino chains (Caesars Entertainment, MGM Resorts & Wynn Resorts) are also either ‘founding’ or ‘presenting’ partners for the race, so if you already have a relationship with them from previous stays, there’s going to be opportunities to secure both rooms AND ticket packages as the race draws closer. We’ve mentioned the partners below and provided links to their currently available ticket and accommodation packages.

Zones at Las Vegas Street Circuit

Where exactly you decide to stay will also depend on which tickets you have secured. Tickets are sold according to the ‘zones’ in which the circuit is being divided. In the southeast corner, the East/West Harmon Zones and the Paddock Zone are where many of the best grandstands and hospitality suites are located, due to their location near final corners, start/finish straight and opening corners.

Further north is the North Koval Zone and the MSG Sphere Zone in the northeast corner of the circuit. Additional zones  include the Wynn Zone in the northwest corner of the circuit, the Caesars Zone (West) and the MGM Zone (Southwest corner). Below we have detailed the closest hotels and resorts to each of the planned zones at the Las Vegas Street Circuit.

East Harmon, West Harmon, Paddock & MGM Zone Hotels

Grandstands and hospitality suites are located in the Mirage and Caesars Zones on the outside of the straights between Turns 12-14.

Affordable Hotels for the Las Vegas Grand Prix

From the best-known hotel and casino complexes located on or near The Las Vegas Strip, the cheapest rates being offered for the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix include the Flamingo, Harrah’s and Excalibur (all from around $275 per night).

For cheaper digs, you’ll need to look at properties away from the Las Vegas Strip. Staying away from downtown will also appeal to fans who want to escape the crowds and general craziness of The Strip, though in that case we’d question whether you should be attending this particular race at all!

If you want to save money on your room, but still be central, the downtown area just north of the strip – especially on and around Fremont Street – is a good place to look. You’ll still be in easy striking distance of the strip (10 minutes’ drive or an hour walk), and there’s plenty of nightlife and restaurants, but prices are cheaper. Downtown is generally safe, but we recommend sticking to main roads and not exploring too far off the beaten path, especially at night. The same advice applies to other parts of Vegas away from the Strip.

• Recommended properties in downtown Las Vegas include the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino *** (Rating 7.9/10) and the adults-only Circa Resort and Casino**** (Rating 8.8/10)
• The area to the south of the Las Vegas Strip is also worth considering, offering more laid-back vibes but still easy access to the craziness of the centre. Recommended hotels include the M Resort Spa & Casino **** (Rating 9/10) and the Fairfield Inn & Suites Las Vegas South *** (Rating 8.1/10).

Stay Outside Las Vegas

If the above prices still exceed your budget, then you may consider staying in one of the cities close to Las Vegas. To the southeast, Henderson is probably your best bet. Around 30 minutes’ drive from The Strip, Henderson has a good selection of properties and plenty to see and do in its own right, though staying here will mean that you’ll need to hire a car to get to and from the Las Vegas Street Circuit. A little further afield, Boulder City is also worth considering for access to incredible hiking, hot spring and watersports, as well as Hoover Dam.
