Bright lights, quick turns, and plenty of distractions—keep your Strip cruising stress‑free from the start. Book your Las Vegas car rental with Hola Car Rentals for transparent pricing and coverage that keeps you focused on fun. These practical tips make parking and hotel access feel easy, even on busy weekends.

Pick the right pick‑up

For quickest access to the resorts, collect at LAS Airport and drive in via I‑15 or Paradise Road. If you’re checking in late at night, take a few minutes to set up your navigation and confirm your garage entrance before you roll.

Parking basics

Policies vary by property. Many resorts offer short‑term parking relief; some garages charge at peak hours. Always confirm current rates with your hotel, keep your ticket handy, and take a quick photo of your level and zone.

Smooth driving on the Strip

Use hotel side streets and self‑park ramps to avoid last‑minute lane changes. Expect heavy pedestrian traffic near showtimes; drive patiently and give yourself extra time for pick‑ups and drop‑offs.

Choosing your vehicle

Compact cars fit tighter garages, while an SUV rental offers comfort for day trips to Red Rock and beyond. Families often prefer a minivan rental for luggage and strollers. If valet is your plan, keep your claim ticket in a safe spot and remove valuables before handing over the keys.

Night driving & safety

Glare and neon can be dazzling—clean your windshield inside and out. Avoid distracted driving, watch for rideshare zones, and plan a designated driver for evenings out.

Why book with Hola Car Rentals

From Alamo at LAS to Enterprise at LAS, compare trusted brands in one place, with Free Cancellation, All‑Inclusive+ coverage, maximum liability coverage on selected itineraries, and no additional fees (save up to 60%).

FAQs

Do casinos still offer free parking?
Policies change by property and season. Always confirm current rates with your hotel before you drive.

Is a convertible worth it in Vegas?
They’re fun for day trips and cool evenings. Just plan for sun protection and limited trunk space.

Garage navigation tips

Follow arrows to self‑park, avoid circling near elevators during peak times, and take the first good spot on the level. Use your phone to mark the garage location, especially at mega‑resorts.

Quick alternatives to the Strip

Paradise Road, Koval Lane, and Frank Sinatra Drive often move faster than Las Vegas Boulevard. Use them to access garages from the back and reduce lane changes.

Outside‑the‑Strip day trips

Red Rock Canyon, Hoover Dam, and Valley of Fire make brilliant half‑day escapes. Pack water, fuel up first, and keep an eye on temperatures in summer.

Return with ease

Take a quick dash photo showing fuel, mileage, and range; empty the glovebox; and follow signs for the rental return plaza. Hola Car Rentals’ clear policies make end‑of‑trip logistics painless, even after a late show.

Self‑park vs valet

Self‑park saves money and lets you keep control of your vehicle. Valet is convenient on packed weekends or when traveling with luggage—just remember to remove valuables and keep the ticket safe.

Weekend strategy

Plan grocery and fuel stops off‑peak, and use side roads to hop between resorts. If you’re catching a show, park once and walk between venues to skip extra exits and re‑entries.
