Let's see....Staying at every place on The Strip is a great idea. How many total have you stayed at so far? Not even sure how many casino's are on those seven miles of paradise. When I first moved to the desert tried to collect the metal gambling tokens from all the casino's. Got to 20+ and got tired of going down there.
Really like the Imperial Palace mention. That was actually one of the places on The Strip I went to on a somewhat regular basis. Their classic auto show collection was incredible. And it changed on a regular basis. The other casino I'd go into was Mandalay Bay, not sure what it's called now. Because they had a House of Blues.
Delano, which is behind Mandalay Bay (and I kind of consider all in one with Mandalay Bay), Luxor, Excal, NYNY, Cosmo, Planet Hollywood, Flamingo, Imperial Palace/Linq, and the Mirage.
In my early days of going, it was usually IP and cheaper locations since they were guy trips. It's only been about the last 4-5 years where we've started to branch out. I'll be adding Park MGM to my list in February.
I don't know if I can do MGM Grand or Caesar's, if only because the rooms are so darn far away from the strip. You need a map and a Sherpa guide to find them. You end up feeling like Indiana Jones...lol - but I am sure I will at least get a night there at some point.
Wynn is at the top of my list, though. Maybe next time.
Others I really need to hit: Bally's(also really far from the strip), Harrah's, Paris, Bellagio, and TI. Some of the other ones aren't likely to make my list. Such as Casino Royale, though I love gambling there. Aria, Vdara - just too far off strip and no casino. Some I will likely lump all together, such as Wynn, Palazzo, Encore and any of the MGM Grand side hotels (Signature, Wyndham, Polo).
