Las Vegas has never been known as a kid friendly place, but in recent years it has become more tailored towards family vacations. Whether this is a long-term trend or not still remains to be seen. It’s interesting to note that the Excalibur was originally designed to attract families and kids, and they actively marketed to families. Although they still have the arcade/Midway level below the casino, they are moving away from the family-based business model going after a more hip public.

Circus Circus was the first hotel to actively market towards families, and they still do. They continue to expand, and added the AdventureDome some years ago that seems to be successful. There are still doing their circus act nightly, and attract lots of families with kids, as they should.

And yes, you see things like the roller coaster at New York/New York and the Gameworks arcade going strong, but the jury is still out on whether Las Vegas will become a family-friendly vacation spot in the long-term. You can read more about kid friendly hotels in Las Vegas at www.LasVegastoYou.com.
