1. Vegas Mate

Vegas Mate has been hailed as “the best” Vegas centered app by Bryan Wolfe from App Advice. This app feeds you all the latest information on gambling trends, hotel and restaurant reviews, and myriad galleries of tantalizing images, the kind that would make Steve Wynn proud. One of the most noteworthy features of this $1.99 gem allows you to customize the template to your tastes: wine lover? Check. Mini golf enthusiast? Check. The app updates all events and specials in real-time as well, so you never have to guess whether the info is current.

2. Las Vegas, Baby!

This app files everything alphabetically according to show, restaurant or event. For the hyper-organized traveler, or the traveler who strives to be hyper-organized but isn’t quite there yet, don’t fret — Las Vegas, Baby! has your back. This app is attractive because it streams reviews and in-depth info about shows, and it’s practical because it lists hours and prices without an agenda.

3. Individual Hotel Apps

Why would you go through the trouble of downloading a whole app for just one hotel? Simple: they’re awesome and they give you the inside scoop. Wynn, Bellagio, Ceasars, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, The Palms and New York, New York all have their own free apps. If you want to have insider knowledge and perks, your hotel’s app can give you the upper hand. Unfortunately they can’t tell you whether to double down or bet $50 on red.
