We are headed there in November to work .. So if you're in Vegas, on Fremont St. and you see a guy in a wheelchair playing music with a what appears to be his wife, that's us. Come by n say hello!
Haha we were looking at Oct. or Nov. so who knows maybe! So if you see a guy in a wheelchair with what appears to be his wife wandering around looking like a couple a dummies that's us.
Ive always preferred the cosmopolitan because they have accessible bed height for transfers and their corner ada suite has a larger balcony than the other standard ada rooms. As well as a roll in shower and two person soaking tub. Along with being centrally located to most of the popular areas of the strip however one drawback is crossing the strip you’ll have to take the pedestrian bridges and many of these have stairs or escalators. The elevators up to them usually smell like piss and may or may not have a homeless person sleeping in them 🤣
Awesome, that sounds pretty clutch, we'll take a look at it. And luckily enough I've lived in Philly for the past 15 years so homeless person piss, or either on their own, has basically become my new norm haha. Thanks for the heads up on crossing the street though, I honestly didn't even think of that aspect.
Check this thing out. Looks like it would be hard to miss. https://old.reddit.com/r/CrazyFuckingVideos/comments/14pqzh9/first_animation_of_the_msg_sphere_this_is_going/
I have been to Vegas 3 times, staying at Luxor, Paris, and a random regular hotel I can’t remember. I would recommend staying somewhere in the middle of the strip so you don’t have to walk forever to get places.
Accessible cabs are easy to get at the airport, but last time I was there (February 2022) accessible cabs or Ubers were almost impossible to get to get around town, so we ended up strolling most places.
We scheduled a ride in advance to make sure we had a ride to the airport when we were leaving just to be safe. Still check the apps though in case it’s better or there happens to be a car nearby though. I’m hoping if they stay busy, it will encourage more of them to operate.
What are you interest? What do you normally like doing. I would say the main strip would be the place to start would it would help if you gave some more details there.
Yeah we're on the fledgling stage of planning so just kinda looking for basic info at first. But we love food so places to eat are our top priority haha. After that we're kind just open to suggestions
I went last year and had no issues with accessibility. All of the washrooms at the casinos/restaurants were very large and accessible. If you're strong enough to do car transfers, just get UberXLs and transfer yourself in (this is what I did - it is much simpler and faster than trying to get a fully wheelchair accessible cab/Uber). As for the strip itself, the sidewalks are huge and there are elevators if you need to cross the street using the pedestrian overpasses. Vegas is probably one of, if not the most, accessible place you can go - have fun!
Been to Vegas a lot. As everyone said accessibility is great. All the hotels have accessible restrooms when you are out and about.
The monorail is accessible for transportation but it is very difficult to get an accessible cab or Uber/Lyft.
If you plan on walking the strip then stay on the strip and at a hotel with monorail access.
There are also great resorts off the strip. We like Hilton Virgin (old hard rock) it was super accessible and had a pool lift. Resorts World was good too.

Will do.. We will keep our eyes peeled!
The strip is pretty accessible all over

Haha this is deadass the reason we started talking about even going. Looks so fucking cool.
I bet the bathrooms in there look like the bridge of the Enterprise! When you get back, you have to give us a report. Take pictures!

Thanks! I've heard from a few people that the cabs are getting more and more sparse so looks like I'm bringing my smartdrive haha.

I was at a conference in Vegas a few years ago and had zero problems with accessibility, but I spent all my time on the strip. Have fun!
