Where to stay at the Vegas Grand Prix

When a glamorous city like Vegas hosts a prestigious sport like F1, you can expect skyrocketing hotel prices, especially if they are close to the circuit. If you want to be in the heart of the action, there are a variety of hotels ranging in price from $280 to $2,000 per night.

However, if you want to find more affordable options, try to stay away from popular areas such as the Strip. There are plenty of hotels in the suburbs with lower rates.

You can also save money by renting a room or an apartment from a local. There are many websites that provide shared accommodation at various prices.

Oh, and it goes without saying, the earlier you book, the better the deal you are likely to get.

How to get to the circuit

If your hotel is nearby, walking to the circuit is the best way to avoid traffic. The new Las Vegas Grand Prix app will provide fans with the best walking routes from their hotels to their seats.

Another way to get to the circuit is through the city's rideshare services. Uber and Lyft will have designated pick-up and drop-off points at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas and the Hughes Center.

The Las Vegas Monorail is also a fun and affordable way to get to and from the circuit, costing $5.50 for a single ride and $57.50 for a 7-day pass.

It will offer extended hours for the event, running continuously from 7am on Tuesday, November 14, through 3am on Monday, November 20. Trains arrive at stations every 5–10 minutes and run a route along the east side of the strip, stopping at several hotels and casinos.

Taking a taxi ride is also an option, but keep in mind that the Nevada Taxicab Authority Board has decided to tack on a $15 fee to all fares between Harry Reid International Airport and three resort corridor locations, so plan accordingly.
