Outside of work, make room for play around Las Vegas. Here’s a guide of some amazing things to experience while in the lively city.

Around Las Vegas

Where to Stay for Knwoledge18

With a vibrant and abundant list of hotels for conference-goers to choose from in the city of Las Vegas, it wouldn’t be smart to narrow it down to just a few. There are many options within walking distances from the conference center in The Venetian, as well as cheaper options that are a short drive away. Feeling fancy? Why go any farther? Stay at the five-diamond luxury hotel and casino resort, The Venetian and soak in the beautiful architecture and recreation of Venice, Italy right inside the hotel. Most of the hotels range from $150 to $400 per night, depending on which you choose.
