More apartment complex than hotel -- there's a sofa bed and full kitchen in all 126 rooms -- the casinoless Residence Inn is located among the strip malls of safe (suburban) Green Velley. Its rooms are a bit older, but still very comfortable, and if you're after the Strip, a free, 20-minute shuttle heads there six times a day.

A half-hour from the Strip, the Hilton Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa is a haven for vacationers and business travelers who prefer the beauty of Lake Las Vegas and the Nevada desert to the glitz of Vegas. With 354 luxurious and understated rooms, an elegant Tuscany-inspired setting, a full-service spa, and a well-maintained pool area, the hotel serves as a relaxing retreat. Families may want to head to the Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa, which has service and style that's on par with the Hilton, but more to keep kids entertained (pool with a slide, basketball courts, water sports, and a playground).

It's about 20 minutes from the Strip, but this Mediterranean-style resort in the suburbs offers plenty to do: an awesome sand-bottom pool, impressive casino, movie theater, 40,000-square-foot spa, and nightly live music. The 495 guest rooms are elegantly furnished and spacious -- even the standard rooms are about 100 square feet larger than average rooms on the Strip. Travelers might want to compare Green Valley with the Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa, which offer lower rates, but isn't as glam.

All 145 guest rooms are a bit outdated -- old, tube TVs with VHS players -- but they each include a full kitchen and a great bed. And though this Hilton-owned hotel is 20 minutes from the Strip, there are still restaurants and bars within walking distance and the Green Valley Ranch casino is just a short drive away.

Eldorado Resort Casino is an upper-middle-range property in downtown Reno, a short walk from the Reno Arch and Reno Events Center. The hotel has a slightly higher-end atmosphere than other local options, though its rooms range from sharp and modern to slightly homey and dated. Minibars and flat-screen TVs are among the standard features. There's an 81,000-square-foot casino, several restaurants and bars, and a seasonal pool and hot tub on site as well. The Eldorado is a cut above the neighboring Circus Circus, and roughly comparable to the next-door Silver Legacy, although the latter's outdoor hot tub is open all year long.

More modern than many Reno hotels, Grand Sierra Resort and Casino is an upscale property that's about a 10-minute drive from downtown Reno, and not within walking distance of other casinos.

The 1,900 contemporary rooms have “spa-inspired” bathrooms, which are particularly impressive and outfitted in striking dark marble. In addition, the hotel offers a spa and fitness center and space for RV hookups.

The 833-room Sands Regency Casino Hotel is a lower-middle-range property with a friendly staff and a casino housing slot machines, card tables, and a Bingo parlor. Rooms are spacious and pleasant with carpeted floors, blue accent walls, small flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, but decor is dated and rooms could be cleaner. Several lounges and restaurants are on-site including a 1950s style diner and a prime rib buffet. The fitness center has views of the mountains and a whirlpool; there's also a large seasonal outdoor pool. Some rooms get outside noise from the elevators and neighboring train tracks -- request a room on a high level for the best views and to avoid noise. This property offers one of the most affordable rates in the area.
