Casino Start to Abandon Vegas Parking Fees

Vegas parking feesThe Wynn Las Vegas and Encore have become the first major Strip resorts to back away from the Vegas parking fees implemented last year.

Wynn Resorts announced Thursday that it will no longer charge hotel guests for parking starting July 1 and will offer free self-parking and valet service to any patron who spends $50 or more, including food, shopping and gambling.

For hotel guests, parking will be included in the $39 resort fee, which is not being raised, the company said. The Wynn and Encore share a parking garage.

“Our guests choose to stay with us because of the attention we give to perfecting every detail of their experience,” said Maurice Wooden, president of Wynn Las Vegas. “We have come to believe that charging additional parking fees is counter to the personalized service we provide. This new policy directly reflects the way we know our guests want and deserve to be treated.”
