Vegas Mate Usage Stats - June 2011

Posted by Hunter

I haven't done one of these for a little while, thought it might be nice to check in and see what's popular in Vegas Mate recently. June 2011 was the most active month in the app since I began tracking. All of the data collected is anonymous.

1. Aria (Last Month: No Change)
2. Bellagio (Last Month: No Change)
3. Caesars Palace (Last Month: No Change)
4. Cosmopolitan (Last Month: No Change)
5. The Venetian (Last Month: #6)
6. MGM Grand (Last Month: #5)
7. The Mirage (Last Month: No Change)
8. Wynn Las Vegas (Last Month: No Change)
9. Planet Hollywood (Last Month: No Change)
10. Mandalay Bay (Last Month: No Change)

It's interesting to see how little these positions have swapped and also that Cosmopolitan has retained a strong place. The last place hotel was Vdara.

Here's some data on restaurants:

10. Earl of Sandwich
11. Margaritavilla
12. Aria Buffet
13. Cabo Wabo
14. Cheesecake Factory
15. Ago

As in previous months, buffets and casual dining are extremely popular. Restaurants like Delmonico and Craftsteak rounded up the top 20.

For shows and other activities, newcomer Absinthe was the most popular:

1. Absinthe
2. Peep Show
3. Bodies
4. Adventuredome
5. O
6. Fountains of Bellagio
7. Garth Brooks
8. Jabbawockeez
9. LOVE
10. Zumanity

Cirque has a solid showing but it's interesting to see them start at No. 5.

In the nightclub/dayclub arena, XS still reigns:

1. XS
2. Wet Republic
3. Coyote Ugly
4. Playboy Club
5. Rehab
6. Encore Beach Club
7. Haze

Great stuff, Hunter.
A few observations on the numbers:
1. Top seven hotels all on the Strip between Spring Mountain/Sands and Tropicana Blvd.
2. MGM Resorts gets five of top 10 resorts.
3. Only one free show/activity in top 10 (Bellagio fountains; no Mirage volcano, Bellagio Conservatory or TI Sirens)
4. Imperial Palace (Hash House a Go Go), Flamingo (Margaritaville) and Circus Circus (Adventuredome) make the lists (as far as Hunter posted) but Tropicana, Bally's, Excalibur, Treasure Island, Riviera, Las Vegas Hilton and Rio did not.
5. Biggest hotel MGM Grand made the top resort list but none of its amenities made the other lists.
