Arts Districtwhere to stay.

Stay in the Arts District (often called “18b”) if you want Las Vegas without the Strip façade. This is a creative, more local-feeling pocket of downtown with warehouses and older commercial spaces now packed with galleries, murals, vintage shops and independent food and drink.
