I just read my comment below and yes I have been to Vegas too many times and yes I am jaded so take this with a grain of salt:

I guess Vegas has changed a bunch but (not trying to be a smarta$$... really!) if your not into gambling or partying why go to Vegas? I know there is some interesting architecture with all the giant resorts however (for me) after you have been to a few mega casinos they all start to blend into one.

I do suppose if you have never been it is one of those places you have to see once in your life.

Good news is when it is stinking hot some hotels lower their prices. Most hotels have super nice pool facilities to cool off. Also the Mega resorts are so big you don't have to go outside if you don't want to, there is plenty of food, shopping, and entertainment all in one location.

Great deals on little hotels sprinkled in between the resorts but then you don't get the all under one roof convenience (you will have to go outside in the heat) although if you are on the strip it is only about a fifteen minute stroll to anything. On the other hand if you are going with a girlfriend you will probably want to stay at one of the fancy joints.
