Las Vegas Grand Prix Hotels 2026: Where to Stay, Track-View Rooms and Race-Week Tips

If you’re going to the Formula 1 Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix on Nov. 19–21, 2026, your hotel decides two things: whether you can see the track, and how many street closures stand between you and your seat. The 3.8-mile, 17-turn Las Vegas Strip Circuit runs on Las Vegas Boulevard, Sands Avenue, Koval Lane and Harmon Avenue, and the race starts at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 21. Official sources confirm only a handful of Las Vegas Grand Prix hotels as sitting on or overlooking the track; the rest are simply nearby.

Hotels on the 3.8-mile Las Vegas Strip Circuit include The Venetian and The Palazzo at Turn 12, Wynn at Turns 10–11, Bellagio and Paris on the Las Vegas Boulevard straight, Caesars Palace on the Boulevard and Elara on Harmon Avenue. The Palazzo’s Racetrack View Suites are the only rooms we found sold for a track view.

Here’s where each hotel sits, according to the race’s official track layout and partner releases. “No track-view room type found” means we found no room category sold for its view of the track; some rooms may still look onto the circuit. Our review method explains why we don’t count a map label as a view.

Hotel	Position on the circuit	Track-facing rooms or venues
The Palazzo and The Venetian	Turn 12, where cars turn onto Las Vegas Boulevard	Racetrack View Suites (The Palazzo); invite-only Velocity Club
Wynn Las Vegas	Turns 10–11, between Wynn and The Venetian	No track-view room type found
Bellagio	Las Vegas Boulevard straight, by the fountains	Bellagio Fountain Club hospitality
Paris Las Vegas	Las Vegas Boulevard straight, by the Eiffel Tower	No track-view room type found
Caesars Palace	Named landmark on the Boulevard	No track-view room type found
Elara (Hilton Grand Vacations)	Turns 15–16 on Harmon Avenue	HGV Clubhouse hospitality
The Cosmopolitan	Harmon Avenue corner, Turn 14 (our reading of the official layout)	No track-view room type found

The official pedestrian-route map also labels Treasure Island, Harrah’s, The LINQ, Flamingo, Horseshoe, Planet Hollywood and CityCenter (now the ARIA Campus) around the circuit, but a label on a map isn’t a view.

1. The Palazzo: Best for Track-View Suites

1

Best for Track-View Suites

The Palazzo at The Venetian

Center Strip · Luxury

• All-suite rooms
• Own pool deck
• Indoor bridge to Sphere
• World of Hyatt hotel

The Palazzo is the one hotel we found that sells rooms by their race view: per the race’s official release, its Racetrack View Suites overlook the circuit as it sweeps past Sphere and along the Strip. The Venetian Resort, which includes The Palazzo, sits at Turn 12, where the cars swing onto Las Vegas Boulevard.

Check Prices on Booking.comRead our review

Prices vary according to travel dates and availability.

Even without the view, a standard Palazzo Luxury King Suite gives you 720 square feet and a sunken living room. The resort’s invite-only Velocity Club sits above the outdoor canal, overlooking drivers as they exit Turn 12. Ask which stretch of track your suite faces before you pay.

Watch out for: a $55 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026), and you must be 21 to book a suite. Palazzo reviewers mention no fridge for personal use and no in-room coffee makers.

2. The Venetian: Best Official Race Package

2

Best Official Race Package

The Venetian Resort Las Vegas

Center Strip · Luxury

• All-suite rooms
• Indoor bridge to Sphere
• Two guest-only pool decks
• World of Hyatt hotel

The Venetian says it’s the only resort with direct access to the T-Mobile Zone at Sphere during race weekend. The official T-Mobile Zone Grandstand & Hotel Package pairs a three-day grandstand ticket there with three nights at The Venetian or The Palazzo, from $2,251 per person, double occupancy (listed on the official site in October 2026).

Check Prices on Booking.comRead our review

Prices vary according to travel dates and availability.

That price includes taxes and fees, but the resort fee is paid at check-in, and at least one adult on the booking must be 21 or older. The T-Mobile Grandstands cover Turn 5 and the Turns 7–9 chicane. The resort is also the BWT Alpine team’s home base for a fourth year, and Sphere hosts the official F1 Afterparty with the Backstreet Boys on race night. Our Venetian review compares the two towers, and our guide to hotels near the Sphere explains the indoor bridge.

Watch out for: the same $55 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026). Guests mention long walks inside the resort and high food and drink prices.

3. Bellagio: Best for the Boulevard Straight

3

Best for the Boulevard Straight

Bellagio Las Vegas

Center Strip · Luxury

• Fountain-view rooms
• Conservatory & gardens
• Five-pool courtyard
• "O" by Cirque du Soleil

The race’s 1.2-mile straight runs down Las Vegas Boulevard past the Fountains of Bellagio, and MGM says its Bellagio Fountain Club overlooks “the fastest stretch” of the circuit. That hospitality venue starts at $8,400 (listed on the official site in October 2026).

Prices vary according to travel dates and availability.

Bellagio sells fountain-view rooms but doesn’t market them as track views, and not every room faces the lake. Our Bellagio review explains which categories get the fountain view, and our guide to fountain-view rooms compares every hotel that sells it.

Watch out for: a $55 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026) and long check-in lines at peak times. Spa Bellagio has been closed for a remodel since March 2026, and Bellagio hasn’t posted a reopening date.

4. Paris Las Vegas: Best Balcony Rooms on the Straight

4

Best Balcony Rooms on the Straight

Paris Las Vegas

Center Strip · Mid-range

• Eiffel Tower replica
• Rooftop pool
• Balcony rooms (Versailles Tower)
• Monorail station

The organizer names the Eiffel Tower at Paris as a landmark on the Las Vegas Boulevard straight. Paris sells Eiffel View and South Strip View rooms in its main tower and 38 Versailles Balcony rooms with 55-square-foot, Strip-view balconies, though none is sold as a track view.

Prices vary according to travel dates and availability.

Club Paris, a hospitality venue on the Boulevard straight, runs from $420 for one day and $2,797 for three (listed on the official site in October 2026, and marked sold out); the site doesn’t say whether it’s at the hotel. The Horseshoe/Paris Monorail station is reached indoors through Horseshoe. Our Paris Las Vegas review and guide to Las Vegas hotels with balconies have the room details, and Paris vs Planet Hollywood compares it with its next-door neighbor.

Watch out for: a $54.95 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026). Rideshare pickup is on Level 1 of the self-parking garage, 8 to 12 minutes from the casino floor, according to Paris.

5. Caesars Palace: Best Big Resort on the Circuit

5

Best Big Resort on the Circuit

Caesars Palace

Center Strip · Upscale

• Garden of the Gods pools
• The Colosseum
• Forum Shops
• Celebrity-chef dining

The organizer lists Caesars Palace among the landmarks the circuit passes. Strip View rooms start at 350 square feet in the Colosseum Tower, and the Augustus Tower adds Fountain View and Strip View rooms, though Caesars doesn’t sell any as a track view.

Check Prices on Booking.comRead our review

Prices vary according to travel dates and availability.

The Flamingo/Caesars Palace Monorail station is across Las Vegas Boulevard, on the east side of Flamingo, and rideshare and taxis load in zones inside the parking garage. Read the rate rules: Caesars’ FAQ says free cancellation on direct bookings up to 48 hours before arrival excludes special events. Our Caesars Palace review ranks the towers.

Watch out for: a $54.95 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026), and Caesars doesn’t publish its parking rates.

6. Wynn Las Vegas: Best for Drivers

6

Best for Drivers

Wynn Las Vegas

North Strip · Luxury

• Free guest self-parking
• Five-Star Tower Suites & spa
• Wynn Golf Club
• Lake of Dreams

Turns 10 and 11 snake between Wynn Las Vegas and The Venetian, per the official track layout. Registered guests self-park free (up to two vehicles), while visitors pay $25 a day and Wynn warns prices may be higher during special events. Panoramic View rooms (640 square feet) look out on the Strip or the valley.

Prices vary according to travel dates and availability.

Don’t confuse the resort with the Wynn Grid Club: that hospitality venue is at Grand Prix Plaza, by the pit lane and Turns 1–2, from $25,997 for three days (listed on the official site in October 2026). Encore, the sister tower, has 745-square-foot standard rooms. Our Wynn Las Vegas review covers both.

Watch out for: a $55 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026), which Wynn’s booking engine folds into the displayed rate. Guests say Strip-facing rooms can be noisy.

7. The Cosmopolitan: Best for Race-Week Nightlife

7

Best for Race-Week Nightlife

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas

Center Strip · Luxury

• Terrace rooms
• Marquee Dayclub
• The Chandelier bar
• MICHELIN-recognized dining

By our reading of the official track layout, The Cosmopolitan sits at the Harmon Avenue corner where the circuit leaves Las Vegas Boulevard (Turn 14), and the official circuit map labels it. Many rooms have private terraces, and Marquee Nightclub has an F1-week event on Saturday, Nov. 21.

Check Prices on Booking.comRead our review

Prices vary according to travel dates and availability.

Some race-week guides rank its terrace suites among the best track-view rooms, but no official source we found says they face the track, so treat any view as a bonus. The closest fit is the Wraparound Terrace Suite Fountain View, a 1,200-square-foot suite with a 410-square-foot terrace that The Cosmopolitan sells for its view of the Bellagio fountains, which sit on the Boulevard straight; ask which way your terrace faces before you pay. Our Cosmopolitan review explains the room categories.

Watch out for: a $55 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026). Guests report that view and floor requests aren’t always honored and that lower floors can hear the Boulevard Pool.

Cheaper and quieter alternatives

Elara and the hotels just off the track

Elara, a Hilton Grand Vacations property on Harmon Avenue, is the other hotel officially on the circuit: Turns 15–16 run past its HGV Clubhouse, a hospitality venue from $3,728 (listed on the official site in October 2026). The race’s official Hotels page lists Elara among its Hilton Grand Vacations booking links.

Horseshoe, Flamingo, The LINQ and Planet Hollywood appear on the official pedestrian map around the circuit, close to the action without a confirmed view. Horseshoe, Flamingo and The LINQ charge a $49.95 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026), below the $55 at the big names, and each sits on a Monorail station, which matters in a week when the trains run nonstop. Older race guides still list The Mirage, closed since July 2024, and The Cromwell, which reopened as The Vanderpump Hotel in May 2026. Watch the naming: the Flamingo Zone by Caesars Rewards is a general-admission area on Koval Lane, not the Flamingo hotel.

Outside the circuit

On the Strip, the circuit runs only between Sands Avenue and Harmon Avenue, so resorts farther south, such as MGM Grand, aren’t on it. MGM Grand has its own Monorail station. Downtown hotels like the Downtown Grand and the Plaza charge a $39 resort fee plus tax (as of October 2026) and park guests free, but we found no official race-night travel times from downtown, the Monorail doesn’t go there, and the Deuce bus runs on a special Formula 1 schedule from Oct. 11.

2026 race weekend schedule

All times are Pacific, as displayed on the official schedule, updated Oct. 1, 2026.

Day	Gates open	Formula 1	F1 Academy	Gates close
Thu., Nov. 19	2:30 p.m.	Practice 1, 4:30–5:30 p.m.; Practice 2, 8–9 p.m.	Practice, 6–6:40 p.m.; qualifying, 9:30–10 p.m.	10:30 p.m.
Fri., Nov. 20	2:30 p.m.	Practice 3, 4:30–5:30 p.m.; qualifying, 8–9 p.m.	Reverse race, 6:15–6:50 p.m.	9:30 p.m.
Sat., Nov. 21	2:30 p.m.	Race, 8 p.m. (50 laps)	Feature race, 4:20–4:55 p.m.	11 p.m.

F1 Academy, the all-female single-seater series, is the support race. Grand Prix Plaza, the 39-acre complex at Harmon Avenue and Koval Lane where the race starts, closed its public attractions for the season after Oct. 4; its 2027 reopening date hasn’t been announced.

Getting around during race week

Closures and the build timeline

The official transportation site lists the track build from Aug. 31 to Nov. 15, race week from 12 a.m. Nov. 16 to 6 a.m. Nov. 23, and dismantling from Nov. 23 to Dec. 23. During “hot track” periods the circuit is fully closed for testing, practice, qualifying and the race; “warm track” leaves it largely open with extra barriers and turn restrictions. The official closure map shows the circuit streets closed, lane reductions nearby and some I-15 ramp closures, but no daily times, so check the official race-week traffic page or text F1LV to 31996 for road-work updates.

Build work starts affecting drivers before race week: the Review-Journal reported that a temporary Flamingo Road vehicle bridge over Koval Lane goes up Oct. 11–16, with the Flamingo-Koval intersection fully closed.

Walking, rideshare, taxis and buses

The official pedestrian map shows public walking routes, existing and temporary pedestrian bridges and crosswalks around the circuit, but it doesn’t say which Strip bridges stay open during sessions, so leave extra time; our guide to walking the Las Vegas Strip maps the permanent pedestrian bridges. The race publishes rideshare-zone maps named Virgin Hotel, Howard Hughes, Tuscany and West Side.

The elevated Monorail runs above the street closures. Its system notice says trains run nonstop from 7 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 17, to 3 a.m. Monday, Nov. 23, and its Horseshoe & Paris, Flamingo & Caesars Palace and Harrah’s & The LINQ stations serve hotels along the circuit. Our Las Vegas Monorail guide has fares and every station.

Taxis add a $15 surcharge on trips between the airport and the Strip-corridor zones and on trips within them, from 1 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 19, to noon Monday, Nov. 23, under a Nevada Taxicab Authority order. That turns the $26.25 flat airport fare to Zone 2 hotels such as Bellagio and Paris into $41.25 ($26.25 + $15), and the $30.25 Zone 3 fare to Caesars Palace, The Venetian or Wynn into $45.25 ($30.25 + $15), before the $3 card fee and 3% excise tax; our airport taxi fares guide has the zone map. RTC runs special Formula 1 schedules from Oct. 11 on Routes 119, 202 and 203 and the Deuce on the Strip. Our guide to Las Vegas without a car covers the buses and free trams.

What race week really costs

Rates vary by date, and race week pushes them up, so compare your dates with the week before or after on the same booking site. Then add the fixed extras:

• Resort fee plus 13.38% tax: a $55 fee costs about $62.36 a night, or $187.08 for three nights (3 × $62.36). Caesars Palace and Paris charge $54.95 (about $62.30 with tax), and Horseshoe, Flamingo and The LINQ $49.95 (about $56.63, or $49.95 × 1.1338), all as of October 2026.
• Tickets: single-day general admission in the Flamingo Zone starts at $50, and the T-Mobile Grandstands at Sphere run $145 for one day or $1,445 for three, taxes and fees included (listed on the official site in October 2026).
• Hospitality: from $3,728 at the HGV Clubhouse and $8,400 at the Bellagio Fountain Club, while Gordon Ramsay at F1 Garage, from $31,774, is sold out (listed on the official hospitality page in October 2026).

Our guide to Las Vegas resort fees explains how the fee and tax work. If race week is one part of a longer trip, start with where to stay in Las Vegas.

FAQ

What hotels overlook the Las Vegas Grand Prix?

Official sources put these hotels on or overlooking the circuit: Bellagio and Paris on the Las Vegas Boulevard straight, Caesars Palace on the Boulevard, Wynn Las Vegas at Turns 10–11, The Venetian and The Palazzo at Turn 12, and Elara on Harmon Avenue at Turns 15–16. The Palazzo is the only one we found that sells rooms named for the view, its Racetrack View Suites.

Does the Monorail run during the Las Vegas Grand Prix?

Yes, and longer than usual. The Monorail’s system notice (checked Oct. 13, 2026) says it runs nonstop from 7 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 17, to 3 a.m. Monday, Nov. 23. Its stations at Horseshoe & Paris, Flamingo & Caesars Palace and Harrah’s & The LINQ serve hotels along the circuit, and it doesn’t use the closed streets.

What is the best hotel to watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix?

The Palazzo, if you want to watch from your room: its Racetrack View Suites are the only rooms we found marketed for the track. For a trackside seat without a grandstand, the Bellagio Fountain Club overlooks the Boulevard straight, from $8,400 as listed on the official site in October 2026. For value, the Venetian package bundles three nights with a grandstand ticket.

Where can you watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix for free?

We found no official free viewing area. The official maps show public walking routes and pedestrian bridges around the circuit, but they don’t say which bridges stay open or whether you can stop on them during sessions, so don’t plan around a free view. The lowest price on the official site in October 2026 is $50, for single-day general admission in the Flamingo Zone on Koval Lane.

Is the Las Vegas Grand Prix worth it?

It’s worth it if you want a night race on the Strip itself: 50 laps of a 3.8-mile, 17-turn circuit, with top speeds the organizer puts above 200 mph, starting Saturday at 8 p.m. The trade-offs are road closures, a $15 taxi surcharge and higher hotel rates. If you’re coming to Las Vegas for something else, pick another week.

When do Las Vegas Grand Prix tickets go on sale?

Tickets for 2026 are already on sale: the organizer announced its on-sale timeline on March 31, 2026, and the official site lists grandstand, general-admission and hospitality tickets, with several hospitality clubs sold out as of October 2026. The race is signed through 2037, and the Review-Journal reports it will run the weekend before Thanksgiving from 2027, so watch the official site for 2027 dates.

Book your room as soon as you have tickets, and compare totals with the resort fee and tax included.
