Selecting a comfortable spot to lay your head after a grueling day of grinding is very important during the series. Whether you are looking for comfort, a summer pad with friends, or a high-class experience, many options exist on and off the Strip to accommodate your needs throughout the summer. We've put together a catalog of places to consider for the series, and you can even book your room right here at PokerNews.com!

Nothing beats the convenience of waking up at the Rio and taking the elevator downstairs to your "office." The last thing players want after a 10-hour work shift is to fuss through the traffic that Las Vegas Boulevard is known for. In fact, a car isn't necessary if you stay at the Rio; a cab can take you anywhere you need if you want to venture from your poker abode. Being so close to the tournament can also be a huge benefit to players because it gives you the chance to go back to your room and relax during dinner break to shower or take a catnap.
