Hugely popular with pleasure-seekers the world over, Nevada boasts a wide range of accommodation options, suitable for a host of tastes and budgets. Most of the best places to stay in Nevada are in Las Vegas itself, offering a taste of the twinkling city’s legendary bright lights and late nights, as well as easy access to the expansive desert wilderness which surrounds it.
If it’s casinos and clubs, world-class spas, top-notch eateries and indulgent luxury suites that you’re after, Las Vegas is the place to go. Some of our favourite hotels are superb for romantic couples, whilst others have a bright, funky vibe fit for fun weekends with friends, or extensive facilities to keep the whole family entertained. Near the boundaries of Las Vegas lies Summerlin, the gateway to the Red Rock Canyon and the edge of the Spring Mountains.
For adventure aplenty, head to lively Reno, set amidst spellbinding scenery. The rushing waters of the Truckee River are brilliant for rafting, whilst Lake Tahoe and the surrounding area is ideal for kayaking, trekking and mountain biking during the summer months. Come back in winter for some seriously good skiing. Venture north to the other-worldly landscapes of the Black Rock Desert, site of the annual Burning Man festival, to marvel at nature's extraordinary creations.
For the ultimate Nevada road trip, ride along Highway 50 from Reno to the Great Basin National Park, dubbed ‘the loneliest road in America’.
