This channel is a love letter to my favourite place in the world, Las Vegas 🎲 from my amazing hometown of Manchester ❤ !!!
Come with me as I sample cocktails, food and hotels, along with sharing all of my top tips & "off the beaten track" hidden gems so you can make the most of your time in the two greatest cities on the planet (and a few other places thrown in from time to time...) !!!
I aim to make fun & uplifting videos that are also informative and give you an honest view...…Come on lets go ! 🐝 😎🍸😘
I'm going in a few weeks and have stayed across the road before at the Golden Gate in 2009. Always visit Freemont when in Vegas and stay for a few nights at the Plaza for a "minimoon" and birthday celebration. When I added the notes a nice lady from the Plaza emailed that she upgraded us to a Luxe room and looks forward to us celebrating at the Plaza.
Idk why people complain at this resort. It’s better than the other options. The resort is beautiful and clean. The only thing that needs work is dusting
Manchester is an absolute shit hole dump! Every 20 yards there’s a homeless guy asking for change and the place is infested with freeloading migrants loafing around shouting cos they have nothing to do. Don’t take my word for it, check it out for yourself.
Manchester City centre used to have some great pubs. Full of characters, cheaper beer in the vault, maybe a jukebox, cards darts and dominoes. All pretty bland now, bouncers on the doors, crap lager and overpriced cocktails. Shameful.
Agree these characterless, soulless, poncy hipster places charging people 6 quid plus for a drink could have never existed BITD. Sadly Manchester has changed and whilst there are still some great proper pubs left they are dwindling replaced by vapid hollowed out shop units with a flower wall for the modern narcissist to engage in their favourite pastime, whilst working class mancunians priced out.
All empty Manchester is a small London now proper mancs getting priced out all top old school pubs gone imagine back in the day stone roses happy Mondays oasis ect ect ect when they an us lads was in town.back in the day cocktails bars last think on r minds Manchesters lost it sold out overpriced pretentious loosing it's soul heartbreaking
My brother used to work on the doors in the Hacienda’s heyday and he’s got some fantastic stories….would have loved to have to been on the scene then 🎸 You’re right in that Manc is getting way too expensive, I’m happy that money is being invested in the city though and areas like the Quays are now totally transformed (for the better in my opinion). Got to embrace it I guess !
APRIL 2024 UPDATE: Unfortunately, Sydell Group has sold NoMad to the Hilton group but the Las Vegas property was excluded from the deal. Sadly, that means that this wonderful hidden gem will be a part of Las Vegas history 🥹🥹 Check out what the NoMad Las Vegas has to offer before its gone for good....
Most of Mayfair is owned by a British aristocrat - middle eastern and Chinese millionaires may have bought bricks and mortar, but they don't own the land it's erected on lol
Thanks for the feedback! There's only 1 bar in Ancoats featured in this video and as the title suggests, I've focused on bars for this one rather than pubs....If you have any "real pub" recommendations let me know or even better - share a video!
Aww thank you! So many cool places in Mayfair!! Yes it’s a cool song it’s been in my head all day hahaha, I downloaded it from a music app I’m not sure of the name but I will have look and let you know!! Thanks for watching the video 🤩❤️
In case you were still wondering the name of the opening song, its Solo (Flying Han-Style) · Loving Caliber....all the song artists and names are now in the description of the video with links :) 🎸🎶🎹
Vegas hotel rooms aren't nearly as high quality as they used to be in the late 90s and 00s. Now.. many of them are nothing more than a very random Marriott or Hilton. Even the Four Seasons and Waldorf Astoria newly renovated rooms aren't nearly as nice as 95% of their other properties. A few exceptions are Palazzo, Wynn, and Bellagio which have above average quality guestrooms.
I really want to check out fointainbleu in April as these rooms look fab! I highly recommend Crockfords at resorts world we have stayed a few times and I really liked the rooms!! What’s your favorite? 😊 xx
We love the champagne socialist at chandelier, and Vanderpump a Paris is always one of our favourite stops - hard to pick a favourite cocktail there, everything we’ve had is fantastic. We haven’t been to legacy club yet, that view is amazing. Great video!
Thanks so much, yes definitely check out legacy club it’s fabulous!! And yes I agree, it’s hard to choose a fave at Vanderpump, the last time we went to the one in Caesars and the Rome Is Burning cocktail was divine ! Thanks for watching and I really enjoyed your last vlog !
Hi Kirsty how exciting I bet you cant wait 🥰! For me Nomad gives you bang for buck for price versus quality of the room and it’s a lovely property! But for pure vegas fun party vibes it has to be cosmo and the balcony rooms are unique in Vegas! Make sure you get an MGM players card (I think you can sign up on the website before you get there) use it for all your drinks ,food , gambling etc and you will get free rooms when you go back (you WILL go back 😂🤣🥰) x
Thanks for highlighting 😊 another viewer noticed it on the first day of upload but too late for me to change it , I think you get the idea it’s expensive either way but worth it if you love Vegas like me 🥰😘🤩🍹
🤦♀️🤦♀️ Yep some very expensive drinks! The trick at Ceasers bar ended up with a few drinks what one drink should have cost 😬 !! But yes some very pricey 🤦♀️! Vanderpump was definitely my fav cocktail!!🍹 Stage door also has some fab prices and amazing drinks too 😘 xx
For dive bars go to Dino's just north of the Strat. It is legendary. Dino, Frank and the whole gang used to hang out there. Also, the infamous Double Down Saloon. They have a HUGE mural that says, "SHUT UP AND DRINK!" I wouldn't go alone. Tommy Rockers is pretty cool too. Serious locals hang out.
Hey 😊 Cool recommendations thank you! I actually stood outside Dino’s once but I was too scared to go in because I thought it was a hardcore locals bar 😂🤣! I will definitely give it a go when I’m back in April! Thanks so much some great bars to check out!!!
@@tovegaslovemanchester It's locals but they're cool. They actually have a drunk of the month contest. Pics of winners are on the wall. When my nephew and I went in, a guy with a t-shirt saying "Drunk of the month winner!" was there. 🤣🤣🤣
Hello, aww such a difficult one as the cosmopolitan is amazballs I absolutely love that hotel and the pools are so cool!!! The bars are fab However 600 is such a lot of money to save and splurge on dinners etc !! If it was me I would use the dollars for food and drinks as vegas can be so expensive! Park MGM is a fab location and has so many cool places esp centre bar such a great people watching spot!!I would also say check out some of the good deals on my vegas app too!! Make sure you use your mgm rewards card and if you don’t have one sign up for sure!! Do you live in America? 🇺🇸 Xx
I think it depends on what you’re into and maybe who you’re going with….is it a romantic getaway or are you going to be drinking/gambling/partying a lot and not really spending much time in the room….Park MGM is a bargain for the standard & location in my opinion. I also think that South strip has some great options for that balance of nice room but not too expensive (Mandalay, Luxor, NY NY…). Have fun !!!!
Aww wow, hope you try some of these cool places if you get chance! Hoping to check out some new bars soon once I can! Have a fab time in Manc in May ❤️Tell your friends to bring that brolly in Feb just incase it’s raining Manchester style ☔️😊😂 xx
Looks amazing Byrnie ! Class upload! I do Hope you both had a wonderful Christmas, and happy new year! (Yes I know I’m late 😂) Brilliant upload as always. Oh and I went to Manchester, and I went in the lovely restaurant which you recommended to our friend. It was lush! Manchester is so lovely ! Hope your keeping well and great to see you back!
Happy New Year Hamish!! Aww wow glad you tried it out hope the service was great!! Looking forward to making some more videos once I can!! Nice to hear from you 🥰😊 xx
The tub handles looked nasty and shouldn't be like that in a high end hotel. I probably could look past some dings in the furniture but would have hand them clean the tub area. Did you bring this up to the hotel? How was the bed? I stayed at the Virgin and D Downtown back in December and both rooms were clean. We did have an issue with the bed my cousin slept in att the D Downtown but she let it go since it was our last night in town.
Yes totally agree the tub handles not cool at all! Have to be honest the bed was comfy but it definitely needs some housekeeping attention. I didn’t bring it up as we only stayed one night and didn’t spend much time in the room ! It’s made me think twice about booking aria again , perhaps we just had a bad room 🤦♀️! I love the D but haven’t stayed there yet!! What’s virgin hotel like?
No probs, 😊 it’s in a fab location but as you can see felt very tired and in need of a good dust and renovation the room I stayed it!! When are you next in Vegas? Xx

Thanks so much for your lovely comment 😊🥰!! Plaza is such an iconic cool hotel and I was super impressed with the room renovations!! Looking forward to coming back soon ! Have you stayed at plaza before? Xx
Hi! New subscriber and loving your videos! My husband and I stayed at the Fontainebleau over Christmas and had a WONDERFUL stay! For some reason, it seems to get a lot of negativity from so many people, and I don't understand why. The property is absolutely gorgeous, and no detail was spared. We also had one of the most memorable meals we've had at KYU. Mother Wolf is also quite good, and the different cocktail bars are superb. I just wanted to give you my take and keep the great videos coming 👍😀
Aww wow I bet that was amazing! I love the look of the centre bar at Fontainebleau we are going to look at staying here on our next trip for a night or two for sure!! What food does mother wolf do? Thanks so so much for your nice comments thank you xxx
Love your outfit in this video!! Also a great video to showcase Downtown, all the spots I’d recommend someone coming for the first time, or anyone who usually avoids it 😂
Aww brill video, just working my way through them 😊 Great to hear more about you. Bruce is so cute. Looking forward to your upcoming videos and vlogs ❤
Thanks so much Sharon that’s lovely!! Can’t wait to make loads more and post!! Roll on this cast coming off!! Can’t wait to get back to Vegas either 🤩🤩🥳🥳😍😍 xx
Arts District - Have seen that place grow and grow over the years and the eclectic mix of shops, the antique stores, the craft beers (Brewery Row), restaurants, the Burlesque Hall of Fame. Its all amazing and easily accessible via the free Downtown Loop or even walk 😁. Great vid ❤
Hi @Mooolllly I will plan that , have to admit I will be super scared on those rides lol! But absolutely will have a giggle making those videos !!! Thanks for watching 😘
