My husband and I went to Las Vegas on our honeymoon. We bought a package deal that was an excellent price. The package included a room for one week, free breakfast buffet every morning, one free dinner at our choice of restaurants, a certain amount of casino chips and complimentary tickets to Legends and the collection of cars.
We flew out of Orlando at 7:00 in the evening on the day of our wedding and didn't arrive at McCarran Airport in Las Vegas until early in the morning. Still, the Imperial Palace had a car waiting to take us back to the hotel.
Our room was very nice, clean and comfortable although not luxurious like some of the newer hotels. The buffet we had for breakfast each morning (at the Emperor's Buffet) included an amazing variety of delicious foods and we enjoyed all the dinners we ate in the hotel restaurants, too.
The Legends in Concert show was extremely entertaining. Our favorite imitation was of Cher. It was impossible to tell the impersonator from the real deal.
I enjoyed the car display more than my husband did. It is an amazing collection of antique, collectible, one of a kind and muscle cars all displayed in carpeted, air conditioned rooms. Most, if not all, of the cars are for sale (at outrageous prices).
One day we played a slot machine contest offered by the Imperial Palace. Everyone involved had so many minutes to play their machine and the person with the most points won. Neither my husband nor I won, but it was fun.
Because the Imperial Palace is centrally located on the Strip, we were able to walk to and enjoy other resorts like Caesar's Palace, Treasure Island and the Aladdin.
A few days into our stay, we decided to rent a car and drive up in the mountains outside the city. The concierge at the front desk happily arranged for us to get a rental car and had it delivered to the hotel for us. In fact, all the employees we came in contact with were happy to help us.
