Chateau?

Hey, My friends and I were now considering staying at the chateau. Does anyone know how this compares to the boardwalk or the summit condos?

I'm staying at the Summit. i heard its alot better over in the direction where I'm at bc u have club la vela and spinnakers right next door. Club la vela is both crazy during the day and night. also, mtv is right outside the summit on the beach from mar 5-19 so i'm sure alot of ppl will head that way for them. The chateau is a good distance from this area, so u might want to reconsider the chateau and reside in summit or boardwalk. ive never been thou, but this is what ive been told.

Don't stay at the Boardwalk. It is way over-rated. During the day the beach is cool and everything, but at night it sucks! La Vela and Spinnakers are also way over-rated. I'd stay at the Chateau, Days Inn, Beach Tower or one of the Best Westerns. If you want to party during the day, try the beach behind La Vela or Boardwalk at least once. But I wouldn't make my reservations there. I don't know much about the Summit. I've never stayed there. All I know is that the Summit is expensive compare to the Chateau. By the way the Chateau is beside Harpoon Harry's. That's the best club down there.

The Chateau is a great hotel. It's right in the middle of the strip and next to Harpoon Harry's and Latitudes. Harpoon Harry's is the best club down there in my opinion. Latitudes is pretty sweet too. The Boardwalk is good too, and there is alot going on behind LaVela everyday, but Harpoon Harry's usually has stuff going on too. You definitely wouldn't be disappointed with the Chateau. You can't go wrong with either Boardwalk, Summit, Chateau, or Holiday Inn. Security is very strict at The Summit and Holiday Inn. That's why I'd prefer the Boardwalk or Chateau over them.

Is security at the summit so strict that you can't have any fun. also, do decent looking girls stay at the summit. that would solve alot of problems. And is there any way possible to sneak ppl in at the summit. If not, then im a be pissed, bc thats where me and 11 other dudes r stayin.

To keep up with the same idea here, what about the Days Inn.. security wise? and vibe over there?
any of you ever went (bad or good stories would appreciate it greatly)
thanks

Summit Security

Security at the Summit is very tight and they are quick to kick you out with no refund for misbehavior. However, alot of people still stay there and I'm sure there will be some women staying there as well. Chateau is the place to stay with laid back security and in the middle of the strip. Most of the old Girls Gone Wild Footage for PCB was shot in and around the Chateau.

The Summit is a little higher class than the Boardwalk and Chateau. They have tighter rules for that reason. It's still a big spring break hotel and there will be a lot of people there. I wouldn't worry about that. They do have more security than Boardwalk and Chateau. The Holiday Inn has tight security also. The Days Inn is a decent hotel. It's right near Harpoon Harry's and Latitudes and in the middle of the strip. Lots of spring breakers stay there too. They don't allow guests though. I've never stayed there, but friends of mine have stayed there. They thought it was decent. I couldn't get in there due to security.

Actually, I didn't say that. Erock did. I've never stayed there. All I know is from what other people have told me. No one I've known has ever gotten kicked out of the Summit. All I've heard is that their security is tighter than some of the other hotels. You can't get away with being loud and stuff all hours of the night. They have more strict regulations. Guests are not allowed there. At the Chateau and Boardwalk, you can pretty much do whatever you want. Don't worry about it if you are already booked there. You won't be disappointed I don't think. Lots of people love staying at the Summit.

Chateau would be the best hotel for that. Boardwalk is pretty cool too. Summit and Holiday Inn are no good for bringing girls back to the room.
